I am a simple man, basically this surpasses all statistics and battlecry for its mana cost
Insane poercreep.
Correct. Insane upgrade from Antique Healbot, which was played in wild for a very long time (sometimes still is in shudderwock decks).
Might be strongest card of the set.
That's not what that means at all.
If you used Discover, it used to be 4x as likely to get cards FROM YOUR CLASS than it was to get neutral cards.
Now, it is an equal chance to get cards from your class as it is to get neutral cards.
It does not change the card pool at all, just the chances of getting specific cards out of that pool.
I see thanks for clarification...
This will be an excellent card to discover for Mage and Hunter...good body, no conditions, 8 HP heal....this will see play...
Discover only gets you minions from your class and the Neutrals, unless it specifies otherwise. So unless there is a Discover minion added which Discovers from any/other classes, Mage and Hunter won't be able to Discover this minion.
That is not what I understood. In a previous announcement they said that they changed the effect of discover. Here it is:
"With Patch 15.2, Discover effects no longer apply a class-card bonus for what can show up in the Discover pool. Prior to this change, class cards were four times more likely to show up in a Discover pool. While this may not seem like a huge deal on the surface, the meta implications could be big."

The BONUS (IE: you are more likely to discover your class's cards than a neutral card) is gone, but that doesn't change that you can still only discover neutral cards and cards from your own class. Instead of it being a 4:1 chance of a class card, it is now a 1:1 chance.
I'm loving this for my Paladin. Shame the art is so boring. Those claws are just plain ugly!
You mean the rarely played card that no longer exists had damage synergy and wasn't even used that much? Yes I do remember that barely relevant piece of trash that had little to do with this new expansion and entirely different meta.
As a representative of the Alchemist's Association of Darkshire, i want to address the fact that this is a case of infringement of the Recipe Protection Act, theft of professional secret information and of FUCKING BROKEN CARDS WTF! ALL RIGHT, I GUESS I'LL PAY FOR THIS PREORDER!
So it's practically a 2 mana 4/6 dragon that casts Healing Touch. Balanced!
People compare it to Antique Healbot, but that card is neutral. in my opinion Darkshire Alchemist is way more offended.
Is a class card, it can afford be better than a neutral card. and you can target the objetive cause paladin can't abuse healings the same way than priest, which drives me to the next point....
....remember you cant do heal cards for priest that can be easily abused with Auchenai Soulpriest , Auchenai Phantasm or Embrace the Shadow
So it has sence that paladin has something like this,
and the powercreep goes on and on.
remember Darkshire Alchemist ?
Priest Minion / 4/5 stats for 5 Mana / Restore 5 Health.
Back from the dragon heap!
Aleays paladin gets better healing support than priest. Puuh.
Priest got 5/5 Rag Lightlord last expac. Chill.
I mean this card is way better than that one though. 4/6 stats are better than 5/5, dragon synergy, and I would even take targeted heal for 8 over 5 random heal that sometimes survives to happen more than once.
You cannot compare these two cards.
First of all, they are nothing alike. One is a targeted battlecry, the other is a random end of turn effect.
Second, they are for two different classes with two different playstayles.
Apples and oranges.
