EPTmight be good with some carddraw cards if you can get the combo off.
you cant play this + rag for example at the same turn, so its worthless for really powerfull stuff.

Now what? | ||

I personally think this will be strongest in secret mage decks. Really good value with Kirin Tor Mage while also not being too slow with that card. Play Leeory.Opponent kills him next turn and now you have two Leeroys on your turn.Seems like a decent play. Anyway,i don't know how good this card is gonna be overall.I guess it would be great to have 4 Water Elementals in your deck instead of 2 but you might lose tempo trying to get value out of this card.It's similar to the new Rogue card in that regard. I'm sure we'll see some new mage decks and also seems like a solid card in arena. | ||

You can combo it with Antonidas. Which would be lousy vs Mage or Shaman due to poly/hex, but in every other control matchup would pretty much just win you the game. However, a big turn 10 play is just really slow in the current meta...I expect that if it gets used, its primary value will be in huge tempo swings when comboed with kirin tor mage on turn 3 (or turn 2 with the coin). | ||

And this is very card efficiant in arena, always 1 card played, 2 earned. So more card adventage for the OP Arena class :/ | ||

This just reminded me of why I do not play Hearthstone in German. The translations just sound so weird... | ||

I'm trying to see the deck that will use it. A slow control mage usually has plenty of cards in hand and no time to play them all. I don't think a control mage will want to use 3 mana for a secret for a a chance to take 2 minion cards in his hand. I don't know if somehow aggro mage could use the card. I could see them play one, so that late game wolfriders and arcance golems can be a serious threat. Overall I believe the guys at Hearthstone are doing a great job. Being a top Mtg player helps me evaluate cards in other card games pretty easily. But this time I really can't possibly tell if some Naxxramas cards are playable. | ||

If Etheral Arcanist was a 4/4, I think running a secrets deck would be way more viable. | ||
