Card seems busted to me, but I don't think it works in Razakus (I hope). Back in the good ol' dragon warrior/dragon priest days I remember people saying around 12 dragons in the deck was optimal to reliably trigger the effects. I don't think Razakus will reliably get there; you need to mulligan for both Raza and Anduin and dragon synergy?
I think this card will be off the charts in a dedicated dragon deck but that's it. And I'm fine with that.

Right now dragon priest gets absolutely destroyed by zoo and tempo rogue. This card would help for sure... but I don’t think it’s enough to swing the matchup from being terrible to being great on its own.
Ahahahahahahahaha the salt in this thread is amazing. I'm looking forward to crushing aggro once again with dragon priest.
Take that pirate package and shove it.
You and me both.
Some people like skillful decisionmaking. Some like playing dragons on curve like a ****** having virtually no decision to make. Whatever floats your boat.
Aww, you silly aggro players are so salty. It's so cute!
Blizzard really has a problem with overcompensating for bad archetypes in their games. This card basically guarantees PriestStone 2.0 for the next half a year. I will most likely be quitting Hearthstone for good.
I like a controlly dragon Priest deck already. This just makes it reasonable to play on ladder. If I could only have Entomb back I could die happy now.
I might look at playing wild actually. I'm probably only 4k dust from a decent dragon deck there. I can afford that. I was always too worried that I'd play wild and it would be nothing but pirates and I'd be sad, but, I think this would let me contend with their speed. Have to see.
Great card. Tremendous potential. I'm for anything that slows the meta and this card alone might do work there.
While this is clearly a strong card, I would like to remind those who are panicking that this is the same community who rated Gnomeferatu as "Meta-defining".
True, but gauging a new "enemy discard" mechanic is harder than gauging an already existing mechanic. hold a dragon in the hand is easy enough. deal 3 damage to everything is already known how powerful it is from hellfire and abyssal enforcer (or really any other control deck)
TBH I am on the side that thought that gnomeferatu was MEH, it saw some play in the end but not META BREAKING as people though it was.
I did legend #6 with this deck in wild. Now, remove Tar Creeper and add Duskbreaker. Oh my god.
Jesus. Op as fuck. Like MORE aoe xx clear was needed.

Aggro has no chance vs dragon priest anymore. This card is nuts on every level.
Bye Excavated evil...

Don't evaluate cards based only on the current meta, but what possibilites it opens up.
This card is good.

I'm thinking of 2 letters, can you guess what they are?
I'll give you a hint: the 1st letter is "O"
Turn 4 that for board clear, turn 5 operative or cobalt. Dragon priest is back!
Why blizzard wtf is this ...

with priest this powerful in the current cycle, makes me wonder what will be left for priest after all of this goes to wild.
