New Quest cards which are Legendary Spells and count as spells.
You can have only one in your deck and they are always in your opening mulligan.
You can choose to mulligan them away. https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/5wiex4/journey_to_ungoro_announcement_video/deabnbl/
The Quest says ‘Summon’, which means that N’Zoth’s minions count. https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/5wiex4/journey_to_ungoro_announcement_video/deab2hs/?st=izohuid4&sh=46e32e84
The rewards they generate are not collectable cards, they are tokens.
