Looks like they created too many hunter cards. Even though this is for druids, I think this minion might work with power of the wild, stranglethorn tiger, haunted creeper, and maybe a couple more beasts. We'll have to see though.
Lol, if this wasn't confirmed I would sworn this was a mistake. I expected this to either be a hunter card, or read "if you have a mech". Doesn't seem like druid has any other interactions with beasts so I'm not sure how this is going to work. Of course, there're still a few more cards to be revealed so maybe amongst those will be a kill command type card for and a houndmaster type card for druid.
This is easily one of the weirdest card to see in any class other than hunter. If it saids "anyone's beast" then I can see it as a hunter counter, but still weird. "Your beast" is just never going to happen in druid.

Druids and beast synergy makes perfect sense lorewise. Why beasts have to be restricted to hunter? Weapons, secrets or... murlocs aren't restricted to a single class. There's at least a hunter beast class card in the expert set, the panther from power of the wild.
I actually like the card on a conceptual level - I just don't know if there are beasts enough to make it work for a class that does not have strong beast synergy.
Two biggest pros: when triggered it significantly breaks curve and because it is a transform effect, silence does not remove the bonus.
Two biggest cons: getting a beast out will cut into it's curve advantage and it's vulnerable to BGH.

Exactly, guys, expand your horizon. If something wasn't there yet it does not mean it should never be included. Lorewise, druids can change into beast forms. Beast synergies do make sense. Same is with Shamans. Lorewise them need to beg for help of the Elements, they can not command them. Therefore the random damage do make sense. If the Elements listen to your wish, you'll do higher damage. I am very hyped and i love if the playstyles do expand. So much to explore, we going to have fun until summer next year with all these cards.
Run out the panther or tiger, and this could be a good follow up, having said that: the stars have to align for this to work and it needs a lot more omph factor to make a new druid archetype. I think this either needed to be 4 mana or stealth to make it viable. Unless they add a new druid beast card?
Personal opinion on what this should have been 4 mana 4/4 transform stealth 6/6 if you have a beast
…. um, ok. This is an interesting card, opening up beast synergy for Druid. However, it is very average. Frostwolf Warlord was never a card that impressed anybody. Druid has no lack of 5 drops, and Druid of the Claw provides a lot more flexibility, so this is not getting anywhere near constructed anytime soon.
.....what?
If you aren't playing Paladin, you're doing it wrong.

u wot m8?
Don't think this'll replace druid of the claw for me, but looks pretty interesting.
Caution: Steep Incline (Ramp Druid)

They put the card in the wrong class?

May be druid of the claw will become a beast?

It's for those River Crocolisk, Oasis Snapjaw + Mark of the Wild decks, obviously.
Kreygasm face.
Poetic.
That Druid looks insane if you can activate his ability, but what Beasts am I expected to have as a Druid? o_O
I don't think Ramp Druid has a single beast in it. Maybe Druid will get some new Beasts in this expansion perhaps?

No one seems to have mentioned yet but Transform looks like they paid attention to the Druid of the claw vs Ancient of war discrepancy.
I just realized... Malorne WILL have some kind of beast synergy and maybe he will be a beast himself. After all, he's a damn white stag.
i cant even understand what is this
Let's pretend it says "if there's a beast on the board transform this minion into a 7/7"
You know Druids receive no love when there are Recycle and Entomb.
