Now imagine if they print a somewhat durable minion that summons a (x) cost beast each turn you have a secret up. This then would be really good.
Because this either will force the opponent to: Play 3 inneficient cards to remove the secret or move hell and earth to remove that minion.

btw, neither rats or mice like cheese at all
Very annoying to play around.
Deadly Shot.
I'm imagining it as a sorta replacement for Cat Trick, since it's rotating out, but it's of course not as good.
Pretty good against other Aggro decks...but against slower decks this can be a dud draw. By the time they can play 3 cards in one turn, a 6/6 won't be that impressive. Or in the case of curve decks such as Spiteful Priest, they'll probably never play 3 cards in a turn.
You right
I like this card. It may force sub-optimal plays just by existing, and it certainly works against Echo cards... Power level feels right...
But why couldn't it make a 7/7 Rat, just so people could exclaim "TWO MANA 7/7!!!" :-D
A "2 mana 6/6" is much better than "4 mana 7/7". A new meme arises!
Face Collector nerf finally.
Finally something to counter Dragon Soul
I thought they were gonna let Dragon Soul rule over the meta, I am glad that Blizzard is finally giving us a tool to be able to stop that deck.
This is going to be an excellent card. Anti-Echo, and can seriously disrupt some early-game Mage and Pally.
Definitely going to add it in my spell hunter deck.
The only bad thing of this secret is that it is very easy to play around, the reward is awesome but I don't think they will play this card in any other deck rather than spell/secret hunter.
In the early game (Which is when this card would shine the most) almost no class (only exception is probably Rogue) sees the chance to play three cards in a turn and in the late game a 6/6 is really not that hard to deal with,
So what you are left with is a card that wont have any immidiate value if played in the early game and though High tempo in the late game its just a bit above average
Not saying the card is complete trash im just saying it is not as good as it seems.
first thing i thought of lol
Cool Design, love it.
