Yeah it's just a difference of opinion, majority said the same thing about Madame Lazul people grossly underestimated just how valuable seeing your opponents cards actually is. Arguably this benefits Aggro more than Control since you're pushing for a early end and trying to dance around opponent threats to do so. If we reworded the card and it said ''Reveal 3/4 of your opponents cards in hand and remove their best card to counter your board'' people would be losing their mind. Basically that is what it is. Am not saying this is some massive 4 rating, am merely pointing out that it's defiantly no 1 rating and that people thought similar about Madame until it saw decent game play and than it was like this is actually powerful.
I would have to agree Star Student Stelina is very far from being a '1'. Gaining information from 3 cards that they're holding is huge, not to mention you get to reduce their hand size. This is what made Madame Lazul so good, it was the huge information gain you got from her ability. For Aggro, Star Student Stelina is even better because you can remove their best counter from hand. She is like a 3 or 4 dude.
It depends if you see a World where Control DeamonHunter is a viable (at least tier 2 ) deck.
If not it doesnt matter if the card by itself is better than Madame Lazul. If DH is still a tempo/aggro class you dont play a gameplan interrupting card with questionable effect. You either play lots of stats, carddraw or removal. No way an aggrodeck can spend 4 mana do nothing immediate to the board/face.
I never said anything about Control i only mentioned Aggro. Removing their best answer potentially can be devastating, which will likely allow other minions to continue pushing damage and the information download you get allows you to make more optimal plays to mitigate what they're holding which again leads to more damage.
