I think people are missing what this card maybe telling us. I think blizzard might pull out mech-beast to give to the hunter class which may have ability or stats to help Hunters play a mid range or tempo type of deck. Since we have yet to see what type of Hunter class minions that are being added with the expansion you can't really gauge the power or worth of this card.
In think that you are missing to read this thread, because I already spoke about possible mech beast in page 3 of this thread :D
1. Many people are thinking this/have said this. It's pretty obvious, if you think about it.
2. You can't possibly expect people to read all 8 pages of this thread...
you all said webspinner was bad and now it's in every hunter deck
am I right??
"People were wrong about X" is almost never a valid argument, because nobody is going to be right on every card, but then there were a lot of cards people were right on (For example, Undertaker and Loatheb). In general it is usually only going to be valid to say "People were wrong about X" if the cards can be reasonably compared (For example, another Deathrattle add a random X to your hand minion).
Also, AFAIK a lot of people thought Webspinner was good. Sludge Belcher was the biggest underrated Naxx card I can remember, being treated as basically "okay".
The hunter is being forgotten. I want to see more cards!
I agree they are not showing too much hunter cards, but honesty I think is better. Call Pet is dividing opinions and there is people already complaining how hunter will be unstopable and doom to us all. Now imagine if Blizzard show a very good hunter card. Probably they will show first the best cards for each class before show more for hunter.
for a priest to thoughsteal this is actually a good thing for them, even if they dont have a beast in their deck, it still draws a card for them. I will gladly thought steal a flare or tracking or even this card.
I think of this card as Novice Engineer, less consistent but with huge upsides. There are turns that Hunters mostly use hero ability or play a low mana card + hero ability, this can smooth things out (but yea, tracking and flare are better). And Far sight is just worse. For shamans, I feel you don't wanna play catchup from turn 3 or later (no heal no good card draw and so on).
To be fair, a number of the cards webspinner would have competed with were downgraded.
I wouldn't mind hitting something like Tundra Rhino, Stampeding Kodo, Savannah Highmane, The Beast or King Krush with this.

Is there any rumor about a Card having two types? As somobody said above a "mech"/"beast" só it would synergise with both ?

I wonder if anyone has noticed that we are currently voting on what looks like a high-end hunter beast...
Everyone is like "hurr durr coin this turn 2 highmane hurr durr"
Y'all are thinking small, turn 2 9/7 The Beast brothers.

Flame Leviathan is fake tho
Not everyone thought Webspinner would be bad, especially true after Undertaker made his presence known. Maybe those who didn't play Hunter thought so?
With more and more beasts, this card will see more play?
Honestly I still hate blizz card design with stupidRNG. Can't they make it more consistently? Like 2 mana draw a beast reduce the cost by 1.
