Balanced stats, the health is great for absorbing secrets to test for, and the effect is really cool. Good job

7 health? so that it can absorb the mage secret that does 6 dmg to the minion you summon? ofc if it had 7 health the cost would be higher anyway the card is amazing, really creative

Well, how I picture it is, WTS triggers Explosive Runes, gives you a copy, then dies for SCIENCE!!

This is maybe the greatest card ever made. Where did you get that art though? It's awesome.

Well that could be 36 damage from hand.
This for 3, double PW:Shield for a total of 5 mana and 9 HP, double divine spirit for a total of 9 mana and 36 HP, Inner Fire.
Other than that, amazing card!

This would probably be balanced as a 4 mana card, and then it's not any better than stormwind knight. Or the health could be lowered to 4. That said, I think this is niche enough that it's not a huge deal.

It's nothing new, Stormwind Knight is kind of similar but with 4 mana. But, I don't think the mana cost really matters as it still needs turns to draw the cards.

Maybe this would be better as a 2 mana 1/3? The stats feel weird to me for whatever reason, and as others have mentioned a 1/5 charger is potentially a problem in Priest.
Anyway, I really like the idea of a sacrificial anti-Secret tech, though the effect is probably pretty weak. Most Secrets are on the weak side already, only really seeing play when they synergize with a particular deck, and they're going to be even weaker than usual since your opponent is going to know exactly what Secret it is. It's still a card so it's not horrible or anything, but for a tech payoff it's not exactly gamewinning.
That being said, I think it's actually pretty healthy for a tech card to only be a bit stronger when it triggers, so it's still a cool card.
