Yeah... I think most dragon deck players will play around with this... we'll just have to wait to see its impact
Well Stampeding Kodo is a pretty good card in Arena so maybe Book Wyrm would still be decent.
Moroes seems awesome! Just imagine it, you play this for 3mana NOW and in only 4 turns later you actually have a positive net value. Who could pass on a deal like that!
Moroes is GREAT!
All those guys enlisted all possible removals below (including Rag and Deathwing) will be crying playing versus zoo, pallys and shamans with constant token generation mechanisms. This 3-cost card played on empty board will immediately bait out your aoe removals, as it do Forbidden Ritual, Silver Hand Regent, Wisps of the Old Gods and many others board swarmers.
Moroes will collect all your whirlwinds, lightning storms, swipes and many many others, freeing way for even further board flood.
If Moroes survives 2 turns - he is saving you 1 mana for paladin heropowering, 3 turns - owerwhelms Imp Gang Boss, 4 turns = 6 damage from stewards and so on. Its a new cancer his play sound will pursue us in nightmares. Prepare your Flares !!!
moroes could be good in a paladin deck that abuses 1/1 minion generation, like Justicar, and stand against darkness
I think people are underselling Moroes. He's a really good value-engine for decks that want to play the long game. Let's say both you and your opponent are on 10 mana, topdecking. The decks are running thin and one of you needs an out, but your opponent's played their AOE already. You drop a Moroes, and suddenly you're getting an extra 1/1 every turn that they have to deal with. Much like the Paladin Hero Power, infinite late-game value generation is nothing to sneeze at.
I just wouldn't play him on turn 3 every game is all.
A vanilla 1/1 token.
Except Moroes generates infinite value in a topdeck war if the game goes on for a long time. Imp Master just gets attacked once and sucks.

You've even managed to miss a few, damn. Assuming Standard only...
Mogor's Champion, Huge Toad, Fiery Bat, NOT Book Wyrm (You didn't see anything), Arcane Missiles, Flamewaker, Avenging Wrath, Spreading Madness, Dart Trap, Multi-Shot, Anomalus (lel), Betrayal, Dark Iron Skulker, Forked Lightning, Fist of Jaraxxus, Cleave, Tentacle of N'Zoth, Demolisher, Chillmaw, C'Thun, Deadly Shot, Enter the Coliseum, Dark Bargain, Void Crusher, Brawl.
Of course, varying levels of guarantee and 'I'd use this to kill that', but you did suggest Deathwing, so... =P
Use Deathwing to kill Moroes
I don't think you can use Book Wyrm since you would have to target with it.
Moroes will be superb in OTK priest. After some buffs (preferably SW: Tentacles) he is weak against Brawl, Deathwing. And Wild Pyromancer + Equality, Equality + Consecration, Sylvanas Windrunner steals, Enter the Coliseum, Twisting Nether. So he is weak against Warrior (32% of meta), Paladin (2.5%) and Renolock (2.5%). Which means 63% of the time they won't have an answer.
If the priest gets a decent board clear and stabilise against agro decks, i'd definetely use Moroes for OTK!
If i overlooked a clear for this card please write down. But don't write so unrealistic ones like Mind Control Tech, DOOM!, Sabotage...
Why not play any other stealth creature instead? Lol
None of them generates constant 1-1 threats
I played OTK priest a lot with Silent Knight and Stranglethorn Tiger I'm sure Moroes will be much better.
Moroes reminds me of something...
Moroes is pretty bad, way too slow and too little payoff for a 3 cost card. Book Wyrm is interesting, though, I played Kodo in RenoLock and there are loads of 3 attack minions you might want to kill.
Using buff cards on Moroes, making him have more health may be the way to make it playable.
Stampeding Dragon?
Drakodo?
