Daring Drake

The stats are good, it’s a good tempo play and it curves off the bronze herald (the 3 mana 3/3 with lfiesteal and discover) perfectly. However, I don’t think the dragon deck will work. I don’t see it becoming more powerful than the Jailer Paladin, because its wincon Kazakusan, while it may come earlier than the Jailer, it’s also far less powerful, exceptionally so in a deck which doesn’t really have ways to use the Reward cards properly. Control decks loved Kazakusan because it replaced your deck, and if your deck is empty or full of removals which you don’t need anymore, than it was all the better; a midrange deck has more cards which it cares for (namely, Cariel, which you might not draw before Kazakusan even if you played Order in the Court because they cost the same amount of mana) and less card draw, making it so if you play Kazakusan with an empty board and an empty hand, you still might as well lose against any control deck with a Denathrius, a Jailer or some other big threat. The dragon legendary also doesn’t seem to fit well with this archetype, and I already talked about it in that review. This card is good, but the archetype won’t be.
