The bottom line is if priest can find a non dragon control wincon in this expansion or the next, madam and this will be run, and will be very strong. We're just not there quite yet.
Why does it need to be non-dragon?
And priest got Galakarond. Which gives them a board clear which only affects the enemy board, and is an amazing value generator. (Let's remember how strong Deathstalker Rexxar wound up being, and that was in a far less control-oriented class)
The main reason is if dragon priest is good I do not believe there will be room for these cards.

Now people don't believe in this card and for right reasons.
To be fair, all those cards that saw hype were decent, it's just that priest has harped on the "only big stuff can die so my Rez pool is better" strategy so long they never stood a chance.
2 mana 2/2 "draw a card" is ok. But a 3 3/3 is better than a 2 2/2. plus like Lazul, hand knowledge isn't that good.
I would disageee here. Against control, there's 0 difference in the body's. They will get aoe'd down just the same. Against aggro however, getting the body out a turn earlier can make a huge difference. Also, the hand knowledge is slightly better than the deck knowledge. Not game breaking, but better.
The archetype does not work. Why do they keep making this kind of cards every expansion? The Rogue got a weapon and a nice quest to play with stolen cards. The Priest what can do?
A 2 mana 2/2 that essentially "draws a card" is incredible value. While I agree that priest needs some big "steal your opponents stuff" support in terms of a win condition, this card is good enough to be included standalone.
1. This is an epic, not a legendary. Worse actual effect but retains flavor.
2. A two mans 2/2 is better than a 3 mana 3/2. It's actually a better body for cost, but a worse effect. Most of the time you will guess right, but where it's worse is that only one of the options will be a card they are holding, while lazul gets you information on more cards and let's you pick from more at the same time.
It feels in theme for priest, and any priest deck already running lazul is probably putting this in too.
