I guess Discover makes some sense in WoG, since it's like... discovering ancient evils or something? But Discover doesn't have that many ways of... working. It's somewhat the same as "draw a card", so it'd be weird if you suddenly just added a bunch of Discover cards. They might as well come up with new interesting ways of drawing cards, such as Xaril, Poisoned Mind.
When it comes to Inspire, while an interesting mechanic, it just fit with TGT. The whole expansion was based on Hero Powers, so it made sense for it to be there. It makes less sense with WoG. And Joust makes even less sense. I'm not sure if Joust will ever be used again, to be honest, since the sound and visuals of it are so TGT-specific.
But at some point they should return. Maybe in a Caverns of Time set, since it's like... going back in time to previous mechanics?
Out of the 3 mechanics, I only remember them mentioning the Joust mechanic being contrived or needing improvement / not as expected. Deathrattle is part of the theme in this expansion which also compensates for GVG/Naxx
I agree it would be cool to see some discover and inspire cards in WoG, but given the fact they haven't revealed any of it yet and that they included any inspire cards in LoE I guess it won't happen :(

I completely agree with you, about hoe mechanics fits / don't fit a certain sets. I just love Discover, jeweled scarab, Tomb spider and ethereal conjurer are some of the most fun cards in the game. in my opinion of course
Discover is by far the most fun mechanic in hearthstone (for me at least) please add more discover cards to WoG.
don't tell me its just explorer thing or it would be a shame.
also add joust and inspire.
no need new mechanics, but i see nothing but deathrattle and battlecry.
I'm really hoping for some discover cards
I know what you mean man. I also really like to see more of the discover mechanic in WoG.

I agree about disvover and inspire, but the thing is Joust is totally unreliable.

Blizzard already said Discover, Inspire and the Joust mechanic won't be in this expac.
I'd like to see more freeze cards like Snowchugger
