1. General Comments

Gnomish Inventor is a reasonable minion to cycle through your deck. Although it is a very slow play due to how weak the board presence is for 4 Mana, the extra card it draws you can be extremely valuable.

2. Constructed Play

Gnomish Inventor is an excellent inclusion in a Basic deck, as well as a good option for Combo decks that are aiming to draw as many cards as possible. Otherwise, a more robust minion such as Piloted Shredder is preferred.

3. Arena

Gnomish Inventor can be a strong card in Arena. However, it is important not to view Gnomish Inventor as a card you play on Turn 4, as doing so will often leave you behind on the board. Instead it can be used in the late-game to provide you with additional options and secure card advantage over your opponent.
