Mecharoo
Designation: Constructed
Power: 2
Frequency: 2

This is possessed villager only a mech, which is better and it's neutral. I like at this and think would I rather run the mech 1/3, argent squire, firefly, or this? And I like those 3 cards better for various reasons in different decks right now. If you're building a mech deck maybe you can toss this in, but even in those I think you still probably want to run firefly and the 1/3. I think this will pop up but somewhat infrequently after the dust settles.

Menacing Nimbus
Designation: Arena
Power: 3
Frequency: 4

This is pretty good in elemental decks. The thing is I don't think shaman elemental decks are going to be good. Like right now the deck is worse than Mage elemental lists (and that's not a good deck). I do think this is a pretty good two drop overall. But having 2 health is pretty lame these days. Great in arena though where a 2 mana 1/1 (with discover) saw play.

Microtech Controller
Designation: Arena
Power: 2
Frequency: 2

You make a nice wide board for 1 health minions to be defiled. This also matches in poorly to things like a lot of common 1 drops. It's also bad with Prince 2 in zoo. I mean you can say "but I can magnetic these after." You can but only after your opponent took good trades first and now you have to make bad trades into their damaged minions. This is not going to see play. Okay in arena.

Piloted Reaper
Designation: Not played
Power: 1
Frequency: 1

The initial stats are just too weak and the effect is too inconsistent. Not even played in arena because you can't even make sure you have two drops for this.

Research Project
Designation: Meme
Power: 4
Frequency: 5

Clearly for like a combo mage or something. Will see play in decks like that. Book of Specters is still better in minion based mage decks. I don't expect combo mage decks to be good, but I do expect this card to be run in those 100% of the time and within those decks be one of the cards that helps it a lot.

Rocket Boots
Designation: Not Played
Power: 1
Frequency: 1

This probably could have cost 1 mana. Would be interesting if they also attached "and deal 1 damage to the minion" and kept the cost at 2.

Rusty Recycler
Designation: Not Played
Power: 1
Frequency: 1

It's a mech, it has taunt. But it costs 6 mana. The mech tag is not worth like an entire 2 more mana over Stega.

Secret Plan
Designation: Not Played
Power: 1
Frequency: 1

Secret hunter will obviously try this out but quickly find it's not good. Most hunter secrets are like not great and secret hunter often runs some they don't want to in their lists only for spell stone.

Shooting Star
Designation: Constructed
Power: 1
Frequency: 1

A card that's great with spell damage, and awful without it. Like right now Mage does not need this and in like the best case you stuck a spell damage minion (which are stated poorly) and used this. Or played one (which again are stated poorly) and used this. Like by the time that happens you have a ton of removal.

Skater Bot
Designation: Not Played
Power: 1
Frequency: 1

This is a worse faithful Lumi. Even in decks that want to magnetize a 1/1 boost is not meaningful enough when you lose the 1/1 on board.
