    I'm sad that Luna's pocket galaxy is unusable again. So I made this card to help.

    This effect will make playing luna's more consistent and less punishing. However, it will be quite strong. But I think the elemental synergy will help. Elemental mage is pretty dead anywhere. I made this card for Kobold and Catacombs, there was a lot more synergy back then. I think this might give it a push. Of course, you don't have to use it in an elemental deck and still tutor for a spell, but you won't get the discount. (My thanks to McF4rtson >> for the suggestions)

    Another limitation is that if you want this to be consistent, you cannot run any other spells. Elemental was good once with Book of Spector and mountain giant, but that combo will be limited here, since running low-cost spell work against the tutor and also not mana efficient.

    On that thought, an Elemental Big Spell mage doesn't sound bad either. However big spell probably breaks the elemental chain. Additional help may be needed.

    First off, let me congratulate you for creating a 4-line card that didn't use the letter 'H'.

    Second, this is very weak, even when you play an elemental. It's a huge tempo loss. Plus, there are very few viable elementals left in standard. I'd make it a 6 mana 5/4 (or 4/5) "Battlecry: Draw a spell. If you played an Elemental last turn, it costs (5) less."

    This way, it is still not a bad play simply dropping it down by itself on 6. Decent body, and you cycle.

     I love that idea. Thanks for the comment. I don't think they have made a synergy battlecry that starts in the middle of the battlecry. It might be a nice change. 

    I do want to point out that I made this card for Kobold and Catacombs, there was a lot more synergy back then.

    Also, I made this card specifically with Luna's in mind. The idea of luna is to lose tempo and gain an op effect. I don't want to take that away. The point here is to split the 7 mana cost into two, so you don't have to pay 7 mana to do nothing. I hesitate to take the elemental synergy off because I have seen some crazy shenanigans in wild. But I think its actually a good idea and might promote some new decks in wild. But again, I DO NOT intend this to be a powerful minion itself. Because tutoring OP spells like luna's how it actually works.

    I love that idea. They have not yet made a elemental synergy  that starts in the middle of the battle cry

    also Luna’s is a big tempo loss itself in exchange of a super OP effect. This card will make it more consistent. If there is no tempo lost, I fear that it will be too broken.

Elemental mage is pretty dead in standard or wild, so this might give it a push. Of course, you don't have to use it in a pure elemental deck, but making the synergy can be challenging.
