I consider Lorewalker Cho to be a Tier 4 card. It has uses. They aren't great, but they are there.
Harbinger Celestia on the other hand is just a bad card.

Thanks Hearthpwn, as usual, for reminding of these events and letting me get those free packs. You got +10 to karma and +10 to kindness ^_^

I've played mainly Conjurer Mage and Mech Secret Paladin this last 2 weeks so I've gathered a nice bit of information on this deck. Kalecgos is the type of card that allows you to have powerful turns but it sucks to draw it super early because it's obviously gonna be dead at least until turn 10, still, I think it's decent enough to be a nice addition for the deck. One very powerful turn is Kalecgos + Power of Creation, it's honestly a back breaker against most decks. Also not to mention that Kalecgos also gives you a spell so it can help you clear boards and even give you lethal. Even a turn like trading (or going face whatever) with a minion on board and then going Kalecgos + Conjurer's Calling is still pretty decent.
Also keep in mind that people panic heavily when they see old Kalecgos, even if you have a deck with not many spells (8 spells total if you count Firetree Witchdoctor) and most of them are not even too insane to get at 0 cost (Like it's still nice tempo gain but for obvious reason a 0 mana Conjurer's Calling or Book of Specters is not the most insane turn ever tbh), but people just see the Your first spell each turn costs (0) and they dump all their resources to kill it.
The real answer your looking for is this... Is Kalecgos worth it? sure it's a solid card, with a tribal tag on it, it's an activator for your dragon synergies, it can help you with super strong tempo plays with the spells you have on your deck and it has nice utility cause it allows you to discover a good spell that saves your ass or gives you lethal. Then comes the question is Kalecgos needed? No, not really, like yeah it can win you some games but it's not a card you need to win most games, Mountain Giant,Twilight Drake and Book of Specters are some examples of cards you need to win with this deck, at least on most games.
I've seen people running Alexstraza as it has both nice offensive and defensive utility and it's a solid threat and ok with the Conjurer's amd you still keep the same amount of activators on your deck. There are other options depending on how the meta looks, I'm running Apxvoid's list: https://twitter.com/Apxvoid/status/1116541704218107904, if there's a lot of control on the meta (Warrior and Shaman mainly) you can cut the Rotten Applebaum and run a second Astromancer and swap the MCT for those new ravens and also running Alexstraza instead of Safeguard (alongside Kalecgos) sounds insane, the list on the link is for a more aggro meta with Tempo Rogues and Zoos. If your meta is full out aggro, for sure cut the Kalecgos and Astromancer and maybe Safeguard and Rotten Applebaum or like an extra scorcher and an amalgam maybe?
The definite answer to your question is that the card is good, it's probably continue to see play as we get more expansions (And mage gets more defensive tools) so it's looking like a safe craft so at the end of the day the decision comes down to your dust situation, if you have dust to spare just go for it, the card is great (I love that sweet art) but if you have only the 1600 dust or something close to it, I would save it for like 2 more weeks and check again, the deck looks like it's gonna be a solid Tier 2 but it's still too early to tell. Use your dust wisely my friend.

Spell Damage Hunter is now real. That makes this card meta-defining.

So a stickless War Master Voone for 1 extra mana? Garbage

I hope they nerf Millhouse Manastorm, Duskfallen Aviana and Harbinger Celestia. These cards are too OP! Too OP!!!

I claim responsibility for this yearly event because I voiced this idea multiple times to make use of the Hearthstone Zodiac calendar... (I acknowledge I probably wasn't even heard to be considered but man it feels good... when Blizzard does the thing that you think you wanted)

Thank you, my random number generator picked 2 (Tyler). I stopped caring, picked him, and went on with life. Instead of going up and down this page.

The above quote came from a News article on HearthPwn and I wanted to ask the community at large: In the past have you ever felt like the whole game was "killed" by a certain card that just ruined the game for you?
So here is my "Team 5 killed my favourite [sic] game mode with one card" thread.
I will start Team 5 killed my favorite game mode when it introduced Death Knights. I really enjoyed playing Lord Jaraxxus but now he is simply outclassed... this Winter Veil I will not be feasting on your soul.

I am around rank 15 and I am winning with this deck. People don't know how to react to Black Cat.

"Dust em! It's really that easy."
I disagree. Whatever is trash tier today might not be trash tier later but even cards that are truely trash should not be dusted until you are never ever getting another deck of cards from that expansion because of the no duplicate legendary rule. I wouldn't even dust that warlock card even though it looks the most dust worthy because I don't want to randomly draw it again in another pack.
Dust em later! Maybe

Juicy_JP,
I believe Blizzard only has deck recipes for standard, therefore, it is not possible for him to select a wild deck recipe.

I noticed Whizbang the Wonderful is not here. Perhaps, its because the card breaks the Innkeeper app. Seriously, Whizbang, that guy, is wonderful.

I think the more pressing matter is that there is a hearthstone designer who is still in chicken form! Not to mention the other designers are frozen in carbonite. So... yes we are forgetting something. The hearthstone team needs to be resolved.

I think this card will boost zoo decks.
