Underwhelming if you ask me. Somewhat useful to justify Hand-druid, but kinda weak for the 3 mana spots. After seeing it in action in today's live stream, I retract. This card seems promising and is a great support for Hand-Druid archetype.
Card cycle is always powerful and should never be underestimated. In the correct deck this is quite good. Survival and cycle in one card is something every combo-deck always wants.
In my opinion, this card only needs to net you 3 armor to be on par with Shield Block. Since Druid lacks the removal Warrior has, the possibility of just buffing you spellstone is very valuable.
Better then Shield Block most of the time. Seems good to me. You wanna draw cards on turn 3 so that you can play a big Twilight Drake or Mountain Giant on turn 4.
Druid doesn't have any armor synergies except for 3/6 taunt for 4 (unless another one gets revealed tomorrow), so it's not needed much. Might be playable but druid has a lot of other ways to gain tons of armor, if he wills it.
Only good in combo decks as an extra draw. Those also tend to have a big hand-size.
Nothing more to say. Really skeptical about the hand druid - I mean, all the druid cards have been revealed. Nothing (for now) seems to be the MVP in that deck-type.

Druid is the new Control Warrior
and another new druid card that also supports that hand druid deck theory. xD

"What have you got there,
PinocchioMalygos?"Why would I ever play this, when I have access to branching paths?
Occasionally gives helpful advice.
if you played shield block for 5 armor then you will play this for 8-9 armor
The question is how often you can get this to be better than Shield Block. If it's consistent enough, this may see some amount of play.

Shield Block for Druid basically
This is great! Variable version of shieldblock
When life gives you lemons, trade'em for limes and get some Coronas!
It's not bad but druid already has so many great draw tools, I don't see this getting played over some other card draw mechanics.
Why u hav to be mad? is only card gaem.

Most of the time this will be a slightly better,hield Block, which currently sees play in the few Control Warriors onthe ladder
