List of All Transfer Student Effects - New Free Epic Card
By Stonekeep -


Patch 17.6 was just released, and with it one Scholomance Academy card was released early - Transfer Student!
It's a very unique card, in a way that you never know what it will do when you add it to your deck. It's another example of how to utilize the fact that Hearthstone is a digital-only game. That's because Transfer Student's effect changes depending on the... game board you're playing on! And most of those effects are really cool & unique, some of them are really powerful too.
Massive shoutout to deevee12 and other reddit users for testing it out (original reddit thread). Here's a full list of available effects:

Outland | Dormant for 2 turns. When this awakens, deal 3 damage to two random enemy minions. |
Scholomance | (Not released yet) Battlecry: Add a Dual Class card to your hand. |
Keep in mind, however, that boards for expansions which have already rotated out to Wild aren't available in Standard, meaning that you won't see some of those effects in that format. I've bolded Standard boards on the list above.
Celestalon has also confirmed that his effect will get updated for new boards while he's in Standard. After he rotates out to Wild, new boards will just get a static "Discover a card from X expansion" effect (Source).

This card so so busted imo... Some of these effects aren't that good but some are pure amazing!

Could you please highlight the standard boards in your article?
Stonekeep
I bolded the Standard boards and left Wild-only with regular text.

Thank you!

what's actually meant by board? does it means i have to include all cards only from a particular expansion with this one in my card deck?
Stonekeep
No, the game board you play on. Each expansion introduces a new board that looks different (with new clickables / cosmetics). Depending on which expansion's board you play, the card has a different effect.

oh wow, that really sounds Awesome. Thanks.
