Pretty bad card, pass your turn 3...and 3 did anybody ever play 3 priest spells on turn 4?! This is way to slow and the value it generates is hardly wortth the effort, priest spells are situational and just spamming them out for a 5/5 seems not a good idea.

This is why this card isn't a curve stone card. Seems to be a card you set up right before your Lyra/Miracle turn later in the game. May not be a great card, but I think we should be careful not to assume we are playing it at the worst possible time when evaluating.

I feel like this is the exact same situation as when people were evaluating Lyra.
Yes, it's not a great turn 3 play. But it's a fantastic combo card.
It's not a dragon priest card that's for damn sure. It's more like Dragonfire Potion where you can use it for value, except this time you get a board as well. So it's quite good.
Pros: + Works in decks where spells and Lyra shines (Spell Priest, Shadowreaper Control, Shadowreaper Machine Gun, Silence, possibly Big Priest where Lyra subs in for a missing legendary, Thief Priest, possibly Aggro experimentals). + Three free 5/5 never hurts.
Cons:
- Lyra generally doesn't see play in Dragon decks. - Dragons may muddle Big Priest rezzing. - May sit for too long. - May make someone who owns Harrison Jones very happy.

I could see dragon decks thinning down on minions and running a slightly smaller dragon package with dragon soul and a heavier spell setup with this. I could also see it in highlander priest or even perhaps in big priest as a side trigger tool. I also see maybe another deck or 2 using lyra being built as well just to take advantage of it or even perhaps a thief priest deck using it with the thief kit to set off the triggers from it.
I think it will see enough play to at least give Harrison Jones a Happy Ending LOL. the weapons period from the expansion are going to make harrison jones and team ooze very popular. Even to the point where it may even prevent people from playing the weapons because of how much youll be feeding oozes and harrison.
This forum rated Warlock's River Crocolisk as meta-defining. Yet I'm still surprised how out of touch with the game it can be.
In the absolutely worst case this card is a 3 mana 5/5. In the best case, if the opponent draws no removal, it's a win condition. Sounds like one of the most broken cards in the history of Hearthstone and an auto-include in almost every priest deck.

How is it a 5/5 in the worst case?
1. Your oponent has Oze, its a 3 mana do nothing
2. You draw it lategame and cant activate it anymore its a 3 mana do nothing.
Not saying this is trash but its far away from beeing an auto include in any priest deck.
Every single expansion, we get people making shit up that's not on the card, and they are never, ever correct.
If it doesn't say it loses durability, then it doesn't lose durability.
last expansion people predicted pretty much everything very good... but honestly, who thought that ultimate infestation will be balanced card?
actually they were pretty wrong about Professor Purtricide. I knew that this card is super slow and not playable in Hunter, cause getting free secret on turn 6 is just too slow and effect is not so amazing plus hunter will probably use his secret by then. So I predicted this card as unplayable before and I am telling you, future meta will be do different and cards doing nothing on turn they are played and not protecting your hero from pressure aggro decks are just not playable.
I wasn't talking about how good a card is. I was talking about, in this case, people thinking these legendary weapons would somehow lose durability when triggered, even though that's not written on the card.
Or similarly, people assuming -- for no apparent reason -- that recruit would work like discover, when it was very clearly described as a random draw.

THIS SHOULD BE ROGUE’S WEAPON, I BET ROGUE IS GETTING A SHITTY WEAPON ONCE AGAIN
Good card, super easy to pull off with cards like Lyra. 15/15 stats for 3 mana investment earlier on.

Harrison will be in every deck now because of this card alone.
And its synergy with running lyra in dragon priest.
Great for all priest decks. 5/5 body is great. While controlling the board priest generate a 5/5 dragon. heavy tempo swing with this

Are you ready for the Priestacle?
Well if you can fill your hand with mana crystals this will be a busted card.
devs confirmed it will not reduce durability when summon dragon,that mean this card basically infinite value (at least until ooze/harrison come)
Strange that the Dragon Soul is a Preist weapon and not a Shaman one; but whatever. Priest is the dragon class.
