This will probably be played in every midrange to control deck that runs minions in even two of three categories. I'm not sure why they made a neutral legend so powerful and so many class legends unplayable trash. I can see this getting nerfed later.
Countess Ashmore? More like CountLess ashMore
Was just wondering. So can this draw amethist spellstone? Cause if it can it's even more insane.
Yes, which is why locks may be even more likely to dominate next meta too.
Okay so it can draw stuff like kingsbane. But what about leeching poison, or play dead? Hope they clerafy this so we know exactly what can and can't be drawn.
Possibly more flexible value than The Curator but not as fast because the curator had taunt.
Still a good card that is worth crafting I think.

Remember why Ancient of Lore was nerfed?
Neither do I
Looks like a dragon...
Amazing card and artwork
Apparently, lifesteal, rush, and deathrattle cards were invited, because everybody knows the menagerie is for guests only.
I love it, it introduces interesting deck building choices, and without taunt, it's a bit more difficult to play depending on the board state. Can't wait to give it a try.
I think it has some potential to go into cubelock at the moment, drawing your spellstone and cube/lackey is fairly strong, but it might not see play just because cubelock is doing some more insane stuff than drawing two cards for 7 mana.
Ever heard of Voidlord? Or Deathweb Spider? Or Possessed Lackey? Or Carnivorous Cube (forgive me)?
Not sure how much I like the card without Taunt, since this is obviously The Curator 2.0, but being able to draw specific cards is great. However, putting Deathrattle, Lifesteal, and Rush cards that all make sense in one deck might be kind of tricky, and I'm not very confident that this will be worthwhile if you can only draw 1-2 cards from it. Deathrattle is usually pretty easy to work out for control decks, and the same goes for Lifesteal for the most part, but unless one of Swift Messenger, Muck Hunter, or Gilnean Royal Guard is VERY good, this might not make the cut in most decks. Swift Messenger seems like the ideal pick for me, since on your next turn it's essentially a Fireball, but Gilnean Royal Guard is pretty good on curve I'd imagine.
This card will grow in power over the next two years as more viable lifesteal and rush minions are printed.
This will be featured in at least 25% of all Kripperino video's for the next 2 years, calling it now.
Does this work with Houndmaster Shaw?
I think Houndmaster Shaw is not a rush minion.
