Finally a card which semi-punishes net deckers. There was a point in time (secret Pally) when you knew exactly what cards were in your opponents deck and the exact turn that they were going to try to play them. This card doesn't completely punish them but it is certainly the easiest condition to meet of any "random" condition. In theory you have a 1/3 chance of getting it but in reality it's more like a 95% chance.

Don't really see how it's gonna punish them .-. You get a random card that may or may not have synergy with yours.

A 3 mana 3/3 draw a random card from your opponents deck is insane value. A 3/3 for 3 mana is ok stats but getting a random card from your opponent's deck is something we already have which in Thoughtsteal which is 3 mana itself. So imagine half a thought steal which is 1.5 mana but it is also a 3/3 on turn 3 and you have a card which has a value around 4-5 mana because it combines 2 cards. Combine this with the fact that netdeecking has made it so this card's effect will happen almost 100% of the time and you have an all around solid card. Imagine if they made 5-10 more kinds of these cards you would have a deck that punishes people from all playing the same deck. I don't think that will happen but it is a nice step in the right direction to get more variety into the game as it's gotten pretty stale pretty fast.

I don't think this card will see too much play a few weeks in, honestly. I think people are going to realize you have a 66% chance of playing a 3 mana 3/3 and that's it. I'd rather just use Thoughtsteal or Mind Vision. I see better value in spells and deathrattles from Priest class cards. That's just me though. I wouldn't craft this card but I probably wouldn't dust it either.

The success rate will be well over 90%.

Just as a reminder, this only shows class cards, making guessing correctly a bit tougher.

What if the opponents entire deck uses only neutral cards?

This is such a weird card. The guessing games will be intense. Does that Warlock have Jiraxis or not!?

Then again, I imagine seeing a choice like:

Fireball

Backstreet Leper

Worgen Greaser

HMMM I WONDER WHICH CARD THEY HAVE?

Well, is it a Leper deck?

I was playing wild against a quest shaman and all of Glimeroot's choices were murloc related cards.

I think ironically to the intent of your original post Purify is more likely to be ran then Holy Nova.
