This reminds me of Kripp's idea for a treasure goblin encounter. Mixing it with your a bit, once a week in a random game mode, you cue into a battle vs a treasure goblin encounter. The better you do the better you rewards. You could even switch which game mode it would appear in week to week.

How on earth did they get that mana cost?? Compare this to Cursed Castaway - same cost but +2 health, and a deathrattle that gets you a card you actually want not a worse Stonetusk Boar. And that card still barely sees play...

Interesting applications in Shaman as that class *currently* only has 3 spells that cost 5 or more: Bloodlust, Volcano and Lesser Sapphire Spellstone. Hence you can actually build around needing multiple copies of that specific card.
And if the Shaman legendary spell costs 5 or more, you have a 75% chance to get that in your discover options...

This really is a fascinating card reveal season. It seems inevitable that druid is going to be insanely OP with all the new cards it's getting, and yet these cards have all been subject to playtesting and balancing cycles, right? So what are we all missing??
Either this is going to be the most inaccurately reviewed set of cards in the history of the game, or the most imbalanced meta in the history of the game. But which????

People losing their minds over this one... And probably with good reason!
4 mana draw 4 of any cards is ludicrous, but 4 tutored cards is clearly broken as hell. Nerf bat alert!

This card scare me.... a lot....
The Taverns of time arena showed us that these effects are necessarily as powerful as you might expect (Infinite Murloc was pretty bad in most cases), but that was ARENA. In constructed, where you can build your deck around this effect.... and with Lab Recruiter too.... Yikes!
I smell a nerf incoming ;)

More reasons to run Scorp-o-matic in the new meta! As others have said, also vulnerable to Mossy Horror and Blood Knight, so maybe not as good as it first appears.
I expect some people will try it in Odd Paladin, will be interesting to see if that works.

On the one hand (no pun intended), this looks a very strong card if your deck is built around it. On the other hand, I feel like the right deck would be VERY expensive so I'm not that excited for it - very likely to be out of my dust budget!

Definitely going to have to disagree with you there. You said yourself that it requires good decision making, and that there is a differentiation between and experienced play and inexperienced. That absolutely is what it means for a game to involve skill.
There is a lot of RNG (and hence luck) involved, but to say there is no skill at all is demonstrably untrue. Trust me, I've seen a 5 year-old trying to play HS...

I'm not sure about this one... I feel like because of the fruit thing it will maybe be a summer festival?? It just doesn't seem to fit with what we've seen so far for the next expansion (the ethereal thing) so I don't know if it will be the reveal...

Enjoyable read, thanks. I personally wouldn't be surprised if things went quiet on the event from for a while, given how long Taverns of Time has run for (and how generous it has been!). Would be nice to be proved wrong though ;)
