Ok, may I get a quick feedback on my new idea?

Since the current draw effect is superfluous, I'm thinking on changing the Spellcaster's design like so: "Battlecry: Draw a spell. Cast a copy of it with random targets" (the letters would have their positions changed ofc). And since you get double value from the ogre, I'm inclined to increase his cost by 1. Some of you may think it would make the card too weak, but I would like you to picture the scenario, where a control mage plays this minion, draws Dragon's Fury/Blizzard/Flamestrike and casts a copy of it for "free". If I don't make any changes to the cost or the stats, I think this might be a bit OP.

What do you think?

@ Gothe

There is an interesting article, that explains how we can read jumbled words in English, as long as the first and the last letters are correctly positioned. You can read more about it here:

@ Gokee

I don't think this is a bad thing, because the Spellcaster acts as a tutor and immediately casts the spell for you (he saves you mana this way). Just like Arschgesicht said in my last card attempt, this would be a strong inclusion in some heavy control mage decks. Grand Archivist has a similar effect and stats.

Though I'm thinking on redesigning this card. Right now the draw effect seems superfluous, since the ogre instantly casts the drawn spell. If I have to word his text description better, the Spellcaster should just cast it from my deck. But since such wording would make the minion a bland copy of Grand Archivist, I'm thinking on making the ogre cast a COPY of the spell to random targets, so that you get some extra value from him.

It has heart, but I tend to think the card is understatted.

Thanks to Arschgesicht for their feedback on my previous card. I redesigned it, because I didn't like the initial name. The word "spellcaster" sounds way more fitting than just "ogre".

I want to apologize to everyone, who suffers from such reading/learning disorder. I'm not making fun of you, nor anyone of your closest friends/relatives.

I just wanted to create something unconventional for hearthstone. Though I must say, that the design of this card was inspired by the recent entries, that feature various errors in English.

Again, please don't take this card as a personal offense.
