I haven't seen C'thun explained yet in any videos. Do you have to play all 5 c'thun spells to form him? Can you still form if you play spell ? Do you just have to draw all 5 pieces?
And second question is Solar Eclipse broken? Apparently it's a collectible card which is also generated from the new druid legendary so Druid can essentially have 3 of the same legendary in the deck along with the other spell that it generates which I would regard as legendary quality
But solar eclipse is definitely good enough to be a legendary in my opinion.
To use C'thun you have to play all 4 spells. It's still not clear if he'll get added to your hand upon playing all 5 pieces or if he's added to the deck (prolly the former tho). After that you need to spend the 10 mana and you do the 30 damage. This means the card is extremely slow cause it's not like the spells are insane and busted, they're fine spells for their cost. Also when you play C'thun it's not like you auto-win. Yeah 30 damage is a lot but obviously your opponent will probably have a board. So it's nice but if your only win condition is C'thun you'll loose hard.
I think the proper way of using C'thun is by having him as a very secondary win-con. Just play your deck, fit the spells when you can and then you draw him and he clears the board and does some damage to the face. But definitely making an entire deck that plans to win with C'thun is not realistic.

Warlock, Rogue, Druid, Priest, Demon Hunter, will be the best deck for C'thun I think maybe mage too because they can just keep freezing board while they play c'thun pieces
At the start of the game, He breaks apart and the 4 body parts are shuffled into your deck. Once you've played all 4 pieces, the C'Thun, the Shattered is shuffled into your deck.
Essentially, putting C'Thun, the Shattered into your deck makes it a guaranteed 34 card deck and often a 35 card deck. So, he might find a place in super control decks that go ultra late game. IMO though, he's the worst of the revamped Old Gods. His 4 body parts range from mediocre to outright bad and since the completed minion itself is shuffled into the deck as opposed to added into your hand, you still have to draw into it....it's just really off-putting to me.
Edit: Actually, I just rewatched the video. There's nothing indicating that the 4 broken body parts are shuffled into the deck at the start of the game. However, it seems extremely likely that they are shuffled at the beginning because otherwise, you'd start every game with all 4 body parts already in your hand. However, I just wanted to clarify that with the info we currently have, we don't know for sure.
As for Solar Eclipse it does seem insanely powerful. I suspect we'll see some insane Kael'thas Sunstrider shenanigans since you can double up on a discounted 10 mana (or other expensive) spell. Whether it will break the game? Too early to speculate. I mean, we just haven't seen any of the expansion aside from the what? 12ish cards revealed so far? There's simply too many unknown variables to even consider having that discussion.
Solar Eclipse is nuts! Aside from the commonly spoken combo potential with Kael’Thas and SoF, it makes the pretty low/average powered removal spells that Druid has slightly more appealing. The likes of Starfall and Starfire can actually be considered playable, and Wrath, Bog Beam and Swipe will excel.
A control version of Druid (maybe even highlander) will do great with the new C’Thun.
I didn't answer the eclipse question but yeah the card is insane. Actually both eclipses are insane.
Lunar Eclipse is pretty much a 0 mana card. It's pretty much mana cheating. it doesn't allow you to play cards before the moment in the game that you should play them but it basically enhances any spell you want by allowing it to also have the effect of doing 3 damage to an opponent's minion. Like in turn 4 you can play Lunar Eclipse and then Overgrowth, which means that your 4 mana overgrow now does 3 damage and it gives you 2 crystals.

start of the game break c'thun in 4 spells cast 4 spells and put c'thun in your deck
The way C'Thun, the Shattered works:
At the start of the game, He breaks apart and the 4 body parts are shuffled into your deck. Once you've played all 4 pieces, the C'Thun, the Shattered is shuffled into your deck.

Lunar Eclipse is mana cheating, but not much more than Bogbeam for example
Which is why I said Solar Eclipse which has the effect of Electra Stormsurge a legendary minion so Druid can have 3 of those which is pretty broken
And lunar eclipse just makes it even more nuts having 4 bogbeams allows for even easier mana cheating shenanigans
