Another card that isn't lore-friendly to the universe the card game is based on. Also, since when is a hat considered a spell? I don't understand their logic on this. Also way too slow to see play in a class like Hunter. Seems slightly gimmicky.
You're right, there aren't any hats in Warcraft which give stats. That would be silly.
To be honest, this is to slow to see play in any class except, maybe, Priest.
hmmm, would have been better as a paladin or priest card due to buff cards being removed with the minion attached. This would have made buff decks significantly easier to play but hey, yay for hunter. >.<
On a sidde note I prefer this over giving hunters more face cards

If you look closely, you can see this is a signature and not a comment. Why are you reading? Stop reading this. Did you read this too? Dang you must like reading.
Maybe an odd enabler for a different type of hunter using Eydis Darkbane, Fiola Lightbane, Echoing Ooze, Dragonkin Sorcerer, etc, but don't see how it could really work.
Think of this card as a hero power. give a minion +1/+1 would be probably the strongest hero power in the game. Definitely a strong arena card, be interesting to see how it works out in constructed, it would obviously have to be an entirely new archetype, but some of the pieces for that are already in place (Lock and Load, Feign Death, Emperor Thaurissan, etc.)
There once was a man from Nantucket...
Yeah like Headcrack for Rogue, it returns to your hand but you are overpaying each time you play it. However with lock n load, maybe.
Too slow for hunterino
You gotta have a dream. If you don't have a dream, how you gonna make a dream come true?
+1/+1 for 2 mana?
The card is there to enable an Eydis Darkbane / Fiola Lightbane deck.
Might combo with Feign Death and a bunch of other Deathrattles.
Maybe this card is a good step towards control hunter.

Give an ooze a hat and BOOM! two hats. Frickin magic oozes.

Hobgoblin Hunter? Who knows.
Guarantee this will see play. Control hunter is closer to a thing now.
Lol Blizzard come on.
Doesnt really fit any of the current Hunter archetypes.
...so basically a more expensive banana that is sticky... Can already see some crazy thing involving lore walker cho and baron Rivendare...

Why isn't this at least 5 mana?
It's triple the value of dread-steed and cost less.
Totally mill hunter is viable!
Combo (If u have enough mana or Emperor Thaurissan's multiple tick) with Baron Rivendare + Unleash the Hounds + Explorer's Hat ... and go mill yourself!
Hype!
I'll tottaly try this at least once :)
Lock and load?
ehm, sooooo slow.
i dont get it, but let us see i guess^^
