tbh i was hoping for a legendary judging from the art.
Not saying this card is bad, it can be really helpful adding some strong 8 or less mana dragons to your hand. Its quite similar to Zola the Gorgon with dragon only requirement. I'm quite positive, this card will find its place in upcoming meta.
I love the idea of renaming this card to Dragon'zola

With just a little detail: it's only 2 mana!! And also keeps the minion on board (unlike brewmasters)
Whatever cards that generates a card into your hand is good. A card with premium stats is awesome. Targets a SPECIFIC card to add into your hand? Borderline OP.

Play Aggro. Stick with Aggro. Go Face.No where else. Win by Turn 5. Control Decks are garbage.
Dragon Breeder will, at the very least, encourage existing Highlander decks to feature some dragons. Some of the mentioned dragons are good enough reasons already, and now you might play them twice. And that's before you consider how insanely good some of the breath spells are.
For any non-highlander decks or Galakrond decks, most of the revealed cards so far suggest more of a midrange build. Maybe the Dragon Breeder is too slow/unnecessary for those decks, but I doubt it. A bit of extra value is usually welcome in those, and you can play this card without losing tempo. And half the set hasn't even been revealed yet. So, the card looks already extremely good, and the best targets might not have been revealed yet. I mean, the Shaman legendary dragon could be copied twice in a quest deck, and would activate twice, if it has a battlecry.
This expansion really looks insane already. The hype before the release is usually unjustified, but I can't imagine how Dragons (or Galakrond) could fail with this much support. I can't even imagine how expansions next year can compete with the stuff from this year without massive powercreep.
The Year of the Dragon starts to look like the Year of the Mammoth.
Why? The powerlevel of the new cards seems to indicate there will be tons of dragons everywhere, in a meta like this dragon breeder would literally be a better Zola, which was played everywhere.
Maybe the ability of Zola to target everything makes a huge difference but I don't think so, not in descent of dragons meta.
And it's a rare card instead of legendary that's kind of a big deal for pack opening.
A. Solid card, and if dragons are as prevalent as they seem like they'll be, it's 100% going to see play.
B. Am I the only one who's kinda bothered by the fact that we have 'dragon-breeders' in a world where dragons are legitimately sentient creatures?

So, when a warrior uses Dead Man's Hand, what does that actually mean in terms of flavor? Is he the dead man? Does he cut off his own hand? Is that why he has Tentacles for Arms? Does he think that tentacles are actually as good as arms?
These reasons and more are why I think warriors are more mysterious than people give them credit for.
If you play this on a card that has had its stats buffed, will the copy inherit those buffed stats?
For example, you play this on a card that has inherited Dragonrider Talritha's +3/+3 and its deathrattle. Can you then copy that dragon and thus get two cards with the deathrattle?

Solid card. we will probably see more dragons with strong battlecries so i am sure this card will find its place on meta

So cute mann. I love this card's art. I will make decks with it for sure.

Very good card!!
Really, really good card. Like a Zola with better stats but only for dragons. Has great synergy with a lot of cards that have already been revealed.
Tbh, it’s so well stated you probably just play this in every dragon deck which is pretty crazy.
This card is ridiculous. Vanilla stats with a nutty battlecry. And you can run 2 of them in a deck! Yeah, this will see play in most dragon decks.
Oh so I can play 3 Deathwing, Mad Aspect or Malygos, Aspect of Magic in my decks at a fair vanilla cost, nice card. I mean crazy card.
I can't wait to see how crazy this goes with the shaman legendary dragon and double battlecry. Hopefully not too crazy.

A 2 mana non-legendary Zola the Gorgon with better stats, but limited to dragons such as Malygos, Aspect of Magic, Fate Weaver, Emerald Explorer, Ysera, Unleashed, or the new "warrior dragon"; minions that you would seriously consider using old Zola on already.

This + Deathwing, Mad Aspect or the new rush dragon...If we cried with dr boom control warrior, be prepared!
Most overrated card in the set so far.
In standard probably yes, in Wild however... Let's say that Wild Dragon Priest gets far more interesting now.

Support and value at the same time with statistics premium for 2 of mana
AMAZING
With a dragon expansion, this will definitely see play.
