    I'm thinking it will work, by looking at how Barnabus the Stomper from Jungle Giants works with Guild Recruiter, Oaken Summons or Witchwood Piper to pull the now discounted minions from your deck. Academic Espionage puts the full value cards in your deck and simply reduces their cost to 1 (denoted by green print). Barnabus drops the full value cost of your minions to 0 (also denoted by green print) making them eligible for battlecries that tutor specific cards. Will have to wait and see, but if the mechanics are consistent, then AE should make for some fun matchups against Priest!

    Some notable synergies that shouldn't be overlooked are Augmented Elekk and Witchwood Piper. Also, two of these on board should mean two cards get shuffled in. Might not make for a competitive deck without a lot of work, but I love the build-around potential of this card.

    The powerhouse synergy/combos stick out, but alternatively, could lead to interesting other archetypes, considering you need a relatively empty hand to get big value out of it. Maybe tempo/midrange (even aggro?) style with proper use of Spirit of the Dead and this guy as a hand refill? I'm not saying it will work, since the spirit drops tempo being a non-presence on the board, but could be fun to experiment. Card draw/pressure is nothing to take lightly.

    Odd card, conceptually and literally, but the shenanigan potential is real, obviously synergizing with Bwonsamdi, the Dead. Excited to see what comes of it!

    Thanks for this, it clarifies a lot of the speculation!

    I feel like Ticket Scalper could definitely see play. 5/3 on turn 4 would rarely trade efficiently, but this time, you could get card draw for that inefficient trade. Arcane Intellect is 3 mana for two cards, so this is like AI with a 5/3 Pirate for 1 extra mana, assuming it kills something with 4 or less health, and as a turn 4 play, that is very likely. Late game, not so much. Not meta defining, and you'd have to work with a deck that understands how to handle this potentially awkward tempo play, but all I'm saying is I wouldn't write it off.

    Updated HS on my phone, got the prompts for the new cards and such, verifying the new patch went through, and I still have golden animations. It's a bug, they've addressed that they're working on it. Also, I have a Note 9, so I'm aware that newer phones work better than older phones, but dude, you need to get some chill or eat a Snickers or something.

    I work IT, spending most of this week updating/imaging PC's for deployment, giving me a ton of downtime...of which I spent almost the entirety of it running HS in the background, tossing "Blessings to you" from Tyrande and then conceding (healing face w/coin when applicable) to help power anyone else through this nonsense, because nobody deserves to have to grind this RNG fiesta for a pack.

    It's the worst, and it's something I can do to help. :D
