For many playtest cards, you’ll need to make a generous assumption that basic game rules would be updated to allow them to work. The Mystery Booster 2 Playtest Card Notes section (reproduced here in individual Gatherer rulings) provides guidance for fitting these cards into the existing rules structure.

Chea, Friend to Maybe Too Many
Legendary Creature — Human Wizard
Familiar spells you cast have flash. (Bats, Birds, Cats, Dragons, Faeries, Foxes, Frogs, Imps, Lizards, and Spiders are familiars, as well as any creature with "Familiar" in its name.)
{T}: Add X {G} and each opponent loses X life, where X is the number of familiars you control.

Rulings
I’m not sure what wizard would want Lazav, Familiar Stranger as their familiar, but to each their own. (I would pick Owl Familiar, personally.)
Playtest cards use a modified version of game symbols, such as {T} and {W}. These modified symbols should be treated as the standard symbols during play.
Chea’s last ability is a mana ability. It doesn’t use the stack and can’t be responded to.
Playtest cards aren’t legal for play in any tournament format other than Mystery Booster Limited formats. On the other hand, we expect they will spice up a wide variety of non-tournament games (as long as everyone’s on the same page about using them!).
