It's fucking insane that Rattlegore is a card that is basically 9 mana for an eventual 45/45 in stats and the early consensus is that it won't see any play.

They're supposed to be locked, but they aren't. I got to play Brann last night and was offered Mukla.
Mukla looks bad and Tess seems very situational. So yes, it makes sense Brann would be the best of the three. My game as Brann, I forced murlocs and got a pretty good loadout of them, such that I would have normally done quite well, but somehow I got seriously rushed down in turned 4-8 and ended up in 5th despite a pretty good board. Earlier that night, though, my first exposure to Brann was a guy playing with murlocs banned, so what did he do? He took every damn pogo-hopper he could find. Top 3, I faced him, beat him, knocked him down to 2. But he had a card-Brann and some battlemasters to carry, and pulled ahead of me once he tripled the second pogo and I couldn't beat him after that. Lost three matches in heads-up and that was that. I seem to come in second, third, or fourth each about ten times as often as first. I did have a rare victory last night using a partial murlocs build with two annoy-o'ed Sneeds. I think that was just a weak lobby, though. --- Video Game Music Contest 14: Now in progress. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Playing to gain MMR often involves playing safe, making the plays that will keep you from losing life this turn, but might make you a little weaker 10 turns from now. Playing to get first involves like...forcing murlocs, powerlevelling, and praying you don't die, but getting 8th about twice as often as you get 1st. --- Cats land on their feet.

https://www.invenglobal.com/articles/11659/hearthstone-reveals-upcoming-expansion-scholomance-academy-14-cards-shown Nature Studies: utterly busted. It's like better Raven Idol. What? Lightning Bloom: Eh. It's net 0 mana for 1 card. Sure, moving the mana forward a turn is nice and all, but I don't see it in a tempo deck, and control decks don't want innervate anyway. Maybe for a combo deck? Malygos Shaman or something? Wand Thief: 1 mana minions with combo have typically underperformed cause you can't actually play them on turn 1. Devolving Missiles: Devolve is like...among the top 10 best cards in wild I think. The one card that really kept Shaman relevant in the meta long past when they probably would have gone away naturally. A 1 mana version that hits some enemies is probably...not as good, but playable! Transfer Student: wtf Wretched Tutor: Underwhelming...but neutral, so maybe has some relevance in classes that don't have board clears. Frazzled Freshman: Definitely has potential if there's a tempo priest. 1 mana 1/4 is no joke. Goody Two Shields: 3 mana 4/2 divine shield is...very playable with no extra bonuses. Paladin needs the help, though, so sure I guess. Libram of Wisdom is an easy activation of the spellburst too. First day of School: Super, super good. It's probably better than Fire Fly on average. It goes into pure paladin decks as the 1 drop they were missing. Also, technically an even card, so slamming it into my attempts at wild even paladin. That said, holy hell RNG batman. I thought they were toning down RNG on tempo plays from turns 1-3. Cult Neophyte: 2 mana version of Loatheb. But man, +1 mana is so minor. I don't really see this one going anywhere. Diligent Notetaker: If spellburst works the way I think it works (once only, but the trigger lasts until you cast a spell even if the minion dies) yeah, this is solid. Basically 2 mana 2/3 draw a card. I don't think it saves shaman in standard, but as a stand-alone card it's fine. Troublemaker: I don't think this makes the cut in standard decks, but man, there's going to be some highlight reels of streamers getting owned turn after turn by this card going full ragnaros sniper. EDIT: actually taking another look, I think I was wrong in my first assessment, this is probably actually just a good card. It's like ragnaros/priestess of fury. Like Priestess of Fury it doesn't have "can't attack" so it represents tons of damage if left alive. It's only 6 random damage at end of turn like Priestess despite being 8 mana buuuuut If the 3/3s it generates go face, you just get to keep a 3/3. Also 6/8, when Priestess needed to get nerfed to 6/5, so that's a lot of health. Rattlegore: Is this a way for warrior to outvalue Priest? Ehh...no, Priest just saves Plague of Death for it. What about outvaluing Gala Rogue? Hmm...maybe? Sapping this doesn't stop the value train, Fliking this is no good, Blackjack Stunner now only makes this cost 10 so it's still playable, yeah, maybe this is the card that makes Warriors not lose the value game against Gala Rogue? Shan'do Wildclaw: ANOTHER HUFFER?!? Yup! Also, there's a 10 mana play in Druid that involves playing Winged Guardian and copying it, so that's cool I guess. And in decks with enough beasts, this on turn 3 is like Keleseth. Seems...really good, but I might be imagining best case scenarios for it. It is narrow, and the keleseth effect requires you to be a beast build which...there aren't really any full beast decks in standard right now. So ehh...maybe this is not actually as good as it looks. --- Cats land on their feet. Toast lands peanut butter side down.

You are not evaluating this card correctly. Shaman and Druid both get it. Oops, yeah, good call, I actually didn't notice it was dual class. UltimaterializerX posted... We are literally getting Innervate and Lightning Bloom on the same class. And forget magical Chistmasland like you're seeing on Reddit right now; Shaman playing the 4/7/7 on turn 1 will be a regular occurrence. Hmm...funny story, I cut the 4 mana 7/7 from my wild Even Shaman (I ran the 5/7 spell damage +2 dragon instead). But I can see how that might be good--Even Shaman seriously struggles with Odd Demon Hunter in wild, and Odd DH doesn't really have a great answer to a turn 1/turn 2 7/7. So maybe that's an out vs DH. If you face a priest or a rogue who draw shadow word death or sap, though, you do just kind-of lose on the spot, and mage with Ray of Frost is not a great situation either. Also, a shaman who draws devolve is also pretty terrible for that line of play. So it seems a little matchup dependent. --- Cats land on their feet. Toast lands peanut butter side down.

Lightning Bloom + Overgrowth seems pretty strong
and with Notetaker you can do it, Notetaker and a 4 drop turn 2 for an aggroish deck Wretched Tutor seems good in druid since there's a lot of 0 mana spells?

But 6 mana 4/9 is a Boulderfist Ogre level statline, plus it's a dragon, and the spellburst gives it a sort-of soft-taunt (if you don't activate it immediately). --- Cats land on their feet.
