Paying 3 mana fora 1 drop and the possibility to play 2 more 1 drops. It doesn’t thin your deck. It’s just pay 5 mana for three 1 drops. That’s a shit bargain. If Hand Druid is a thing, maybe...
This will be included in every deck that tries to use Hagatha, for sure. That's 3 random spells for only 5 mana invested. Definitely will be included with Hagatha, if she becomes a thing at all.
I fell like this was made for odd decks to make the most of even turns, but it's still unplayable. Turn 1 you play a 1-drop, turn 2 you super-hero power, turn 3... this? If you're going odd-aggro, you can't afford the tempo loss, and if you're going odd-control, you're going to need defense on turn 3.
Compare with Igneous Elemental: this gives the 1-drops as a battlecry and not a deathrattle, and most one-drops are better than Flame Elementals! You also might get a really useful class 1-drop in a class like Hunter, or even Fire Fly!
This card is sick and will definitely see play in at least quest hunter! This is exactly what it needed!

Defenitely not, since shes an 8 drop. You`ll need a super solid defensive backbone to survive which means a super good curve. This does not provide such thus wil not be played with her. Besides ignious is just better specially with elementals.
And when did Igneous Elemental see play? Also no Igneous is way better, it has much better stats, and a 1 mana 1/2 is much better on average than a random 1 drop, the battlecry doesn't matter, you still need to play the 1 drops
This is better than Igneous Elemental because it gives you two cards immediately. This means that you can potentially trigger the quest the turn you play Ravencaller.
With igneous elemental, you generally play the card and the opponent ignores it because they played a 3/4 and aren’t gonna trade that into a 2/3 when they can just go face.
This isn’t a “great card” but being able to get those two 1 mana minions the turn of is exponentially better for this deck.
Why is it that whenever a card like this is revealed everyone immediately says "quest hunter" but I never see anyone else playing the deck? Sure it's absolute garbage, but it's easily one of the most fun decks to screw around with, and lets you play otherwise unreasonable cards like this one. I'll try this card in it right away even though there's no way it's optimal.
Maybe there's ways to have fun with it with a lot of battlecry synergies. Blubber Baron baku pally hype.
I really wish they'd print more cards similar to this one with a slightly better statline. I feel like this card as a 3/1 or 2/2 would feel pretty nice, as the ability to contest 2-drops or not die to ping seems rather fair on a 3-mana body with a small/medium level effect.
Decent in Arena I guess. Not good with Paladin because of CTA.
It's 3 cost. Has no interaction with CtA.
Really good for Quest Hunter. Gives two quest charges, doesn't pollute the pool of 1 drops in your deck (so you can more safely run something like Tol'vir guardian).
Card-advantage-wise it's Arcane Intellect with a body attached. 1 drops are low value, but the decks this would see play in (Hand decks, Quest Hunter, zoo, token) they don't really care about that. They just want tokens or more cards in hand.
I honestly think Hand/Druid sounds pretty fun. They have so much card draw at this point it's insane.
This is really rough, but sort of what I'm picturing the deck might look like. I think the Whispering Wilds into Sea Giant play seems pretty legit IMO. That's a turn 5 "Onyxia" potentially.
At first I thought this was DRAW two 1-cost minions but nah, this card just doesn't seem like it's all too great
Recycle recycle recycle billion dollarsssss company WTF

We have this card in a better form already.
I play it in Elemental decks. Well I would if it weren't bad.
Abysmal immediate value, and no reasonable expectation its battlecry will pay off. Largely outclassed by Igneous Elemental.
Perhaps it could work in decks that require a large hand (Hand Druid?) but it is probably not the best way to fill your hand.

3 1-mana bodies for 5 mana... Trash tier.
The only hope this card has is if it fits into some weird gimmick but it looks pathetic next to Firefly.
It's actually really good!

Uh... nope, next?
seems very "meh" but i guess it helps out hunter quest....

Don't mind me just passing by
Will Quest Hunter be real? Will Hand Druid?
This makes them both slightly more possible. Stay tuned!

In respect to Quest Hunter

This will see play in a Druid token deck with the new cards that Druid is seeing. How viable and/or good that token deck will be??? We'll see.
