1. General Comments

Lyra the Sunshard is a powerful Legendary minion that pushes the Spell Priest archetype further into the realm of viability. When combined with Radiant Elemental, Lyra has the potential to cause explosive turns due to the large number of cheap Priest Spells available.

2. Constructed Play

In Constructed, Lyra the Sunshard is a strong card. Using only a single Spell with Lyra is enough for the card to be reasonable value and as there are a range of cheap Spells run every Priest deck, Lyra can be a good fit in any deck. Due to the huge potential for powerful turns, Lyra also opens up the possibility of seeing play in a new Spell oriented Priest archetype.

3. Arena

Lyra the Sunshard is an average card in Arena. Due to the lack of Spells available in Arena, it can be hard to get consistent value from the card. As Lyra is also a Legendary minion, it is quite likely you will have a much more powerful alternative to pick from.
