Notice that it says secret, not Paladin secret so it could mean from any secret class, if that is the case then this card is pretty good.
Edit: OK, I get it wow, guess I never really looked into or thought about how discover actually works, calm down everyone.
Are you new? because you can only discover class or neutral cards. You can't discover hunter or mage secrets with this.
Actually, hope crusher here, discover is a mechanic that draws from neutral or class range. So it will be a Paladin secret; except;
-on grimestreet discoveries (grimestreet informant) where you can have a hunter secret.
-on random generator, like mulch or unstable portal where you can have a mage secret.
-on Megafin.
Question is, what do you discover with a secretless class like warrior or shaman (which could happen pretty often with Megafin).
Will it be a card without effect (probably IMO) or will you discover any secret from any class ?
What happens when priests get this via Thoughtsteal? Do they still discover paladin secrets or the battlecry doesn't activate at all?
The text in Hydrologist's card effect is misleading, this can be discover a paladin secret, a secret from the 3 class or a class secret.
Is is a female murloc?
the murloc pally joke will never end? wtf
That frog looks extremely concerned.
Not sure if that's a male or not. Like the dress tells me that it's a male but the hat and the eyes tell me that it's a women. What is it now ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
It's a trap.
Probably not a good competitive card, but it is a funny reference to murloc secret paladin.
I love the little "Huge Toad" behind her in the art. It's small details like that, that make me love Blizz.
Actually that's a normal tiny frog. Huge Toad golden animation has him eating a poor gnome. Except if the Murloc has the size of Megafin. Still a nice detail to add to a common card =)

No I'm not this card is not a smart effect it is a common card like others. As expected.
Potential for infinite value with Getaway Kodo
A lot of Dark Peddler's strength was that he could be dropped on curve without losing much tempo, and getting a small advantage in the process. This is very, very similar.
Obviously running pally secrets outside of MC is awful late game as they're so low impact, without even generating any tempo if you use them in the early game either. However, anyone who's played MC to death and had to hardcast pally secrets will know that they're far from zero impact - they're often "worth" about half a card in the early game, and great if you have a secretkeeper out.
The loss of power comparing pally secrets to random 1 drop this has vs dark peddler might be made up for by the murloc tag. Unfortunately, murloc decks don't have much synergy with secrets atm, but it wouldn't take much support to make this into an amazing pally 2 drop
You want to fight with honor, Uther? Stop with the secrets and don't have murlocs fighting for you.
/do quite well with buffadin
//Thought mage was getting turned into a secret deck
kind of looks like when bugs bunny dresses as an offensive asian stereotype with the buck teeth
