If you play a Deathrattle Priest, the chances are that your Quest is already done by Turn 8.

No, Houndmaster Shaw gives other cards Rush, but it doesn’t have Rush. So it wouldn’t be drawn with it.
Countess Ashmore
It does not. The card GIVES Lifesteal, but doesn’t have Lifesteal itself.
I’m not sure about Kingsbane after you give it Lifesteal and shuffle back into your deck. It depends on whether it looks at the base copy of the card or counts the buffs too.
Countess Ashmore
Why, though? It’s not much better than Curator, and while Curator is a good card, it has seen play only in a few decks over the ~1.5 years it was in Standard.
It looks like a strong card, but it definitely won’t be played in every deck.
And I’m 100% sure that it draws up to 3 cards.
Countess Ashmore
There should be no reason not to, since it doesn’t specify what kind of card it draws. If it was “draw X, Y and Z minion”, then it would be a different story.

It wasn’t an official translation, we always update it when one gets released. We just updated this one.
Early translations are not always 100% correct grammatically, but they should at least be understandable ๐ We feel like getting the card out quickly so you can see it right away is more important than making the text box look clear.

End of Turn effects trigger based on the order. So if Dreadlord was on the board first, it will trigger and then this will also shoot all of those minions for 2. If you play this first and then Dreadlord, it won’t work.

Cobalt Guardian is a significantly worse card. Not having Divine Shield right away means that it just dies unless you combo it with a Mech immediately, and Mechs were a much harsher condition than healing. Paladin has lots of good healing cards, and had only two good Mechs (2x Shielded Minibot).

I know, I really like her too.
And to be fair, she’s not the WORST card ever, you probably could play her as a value tool in an otherwise meta Control Mage. It wouldn’t be a good choice, but it would be fun ๐

You’re right, why didn’t I think about it?
I still don’t think it’s that strong in general. It’s a tech – and countering Echo cards is a cool addition. If meta decks run Echo cards or just want to play a few cards per turn in the mid/late game in general, then this card will see play. If not, no. Trying to predict the meta is almost impossible.
Dire Frenzy
Minion you buffed, with the +3/+3 buff.
E.g. you buff a minion with base stats of 1/1, you get three 4/4 copies of it shuffled into your deck.

Nope, it was confirmed by the devs that Genn and Baku look at your deck before the mulligan – so you can’t put a Quest into Genn deck, it won’t work.
To be fair, Weasel Priest was pretty fun.
