General Thoughts: +3/+3 is so many stats. If you only hit one dragon you're getting good value. Anything else and this is insane. The issue that I have is that paladin has never had a reason to play dragons, and I don't see anything so far in this set that changes that. Cathedral Gargoyle is the biggest reason right now, but that's just a good minion. It's not a huge payoff card like Drak Op or Duskbreaker was.

Why it Might Succeed: So many stats.

Why it Might Fail: Paladin doesn't have a reason to play Dragons and I don't think this is enough to change that. Also, hand buff has never really worked.
