[edit] Draw 2 cards for 4 mana isn't bad. The question is - how would you like your outcome? Cheap minion (and expensive spell) or a cheap spell (and an expensive minion)? It would be really interesting to see how a deck revolves around this.
Yeah, being a fan card designer makes you grow tired of most new cards, it's not a good thing.
I think this has potentiel for a "Secret Big" Paladin that could be compared to current Spiteful decks. If it's viable it won't be more than thier 4 though.
I'm surprised people are voting Very Good, but not Meta Defining... Either this card ends up being a 4 mana draw 2, and fades away in mediocrity, or someone finds some way to break it, and it shapes the meta.
I don't see much room for it to be just a "good card."
Today in my free brawl pack I got Barongeddon, then I had a cup of fresh green tea. As a result of that, I think Priest is OP because my keyboard is not a mechanical one. I hope Blizzard will address this issue.
You CAN play tonnes of secrets, and midrange/lategame secrets and then draw them with this card, the crappy secret costs X but your minion costs 1, seems quite good in a midrange secret deck, you probably also run a few buffs as well.. it will take a while to determinate how many secrets you put in the deck..
Seems like a great card all in all.
The other direction could be to run a big buffing deck, and run cheap minions so your spikeridge steeds cost 2 or 1 and your minions are just unplayable for a while..
This is a quite strong. Big minions and cheap spells, but will be quite challenging to built a deck like that. Don't think agressive decks would run this card in cheap minions, expensive spells way, althouth Avenging Wrath and Dinosize might be worth it. Really cool card, opens lots of deckbuilding opportunities..

Huh, I have seen similar cards in the WCDCs.
Interesting card. It has some potential.

Kinda aweful or do i miss something here?
potentialy devastating. The powercreep is real this expansion compared to witchwood.
Secret Big Paladin?
Very gooood!!
Now can do a aggro deck with big spells like Dinosize
Wild Decks: Jurassic Park OTK | Highlander Hunter | Deathrattle Highlander Priest | Highlander Warlock | AlchemistLord Warlock
i really LOVE this card design its too original!
That is so creative of a draw card.
I don't care if it would suck in practice, the idea is ingenious. I voted it as "Playable"
This looks super OP. With Secrets you can get up 9 mana discount on a minion. There will be a way to abuse this.
even pally with a 2 mana Dinosize
If you look past the draw and think about the outcome, swapping the cost of a cheap minion with a mid range costed spell is really, really bad
Don't mind me just passing by

Thank God Paladin doesnt have any competition at the 4 mana slot.....
(I knew Paladin would get at leat one more 4 mana card, also this seems to have some anti synergy with the other draw spell)
Maybe this could go into an Even Paladin deck? I'm not too familiar with all the paladin spells though.
If it had of been an odd cost card it would have been good for getting a cheap level up.
I will keep an eye on this for people coming up with synergy for it. I feel it has potential.
Need to have a deck built around it like spiteful otherwise trash.

Draw a 1 or 2 cost minion and Call to Arms? Okay!
At worst, what, you're grabbing another copy of this or equality? Then you just tutored equality.
This is goooooooooooooood.
Even Paladins are getting in on cheap Malgyos bandwagon! Lol
