"Invoke cards will now no longer appear from cards that generate other cards." Dammit, I thought that was intentional. I really liked that, do they have to change it back?
"Muh reprint" I'd argue that releasing different cards with similar effects, or exactly the same effect is beneficial to certain decks and helps keep them around even after some cards rotate out (see Swashburglar) It is strange that they printed it in the same cycle as Lazul, but it looks like they want to push the whole thief Priest, a very fun deck that was never strong enough to get into higher tiers.
I have another point, but I might be totally wrong here. Curious Glimmerroot Always showed you two class cards that did not start in your opponent's decks. If Envoy of Lazul works exactly in the same way - at least showing cards that your opponent did not put in their deck, knowing this will help you play better around your opponent's strategy.
Lastly, you can get both this and Madame Lazul from the Galakrond effect. Looks like Priest is getting a lot of push towards resource generations. Thankfully you only get Priest minions, so you don't have to worry about infinite Mass Resurrection shenanigans.
Wait, now that I think about it, will a poisonous decay minion kill itself? I assume that losing health counts as taking damage for various effects, as unlike the set health to x mechanic, the character counts as damaged. I think it works like that, but I might be wrong.
This idea instantly popped into my mind. I think it'd be more balanced as a minion than a cheap spell. Obviously there's synergy with Fandral/Untapped Potential, but I think there might be a need for druid cards that synergize with Decay for this to work. Still not sure about the stats.

A meta that I'll have fun playing in.

And here I was hoping this would imply that Dragons will become a playable race in WoW.
Oh well.
