It's a solid card that will see play if combo decks are popular.
It's a little better than Deathlord, because it's a battlecry, so the 3/8 taunt body can protect you for a turn if you hit something big, and it can't be silenced.
I see it as a little worse than Dirty Rat, because it is harder to get the timing right.
But overall, solid card.
If Hecklebot's audio or flavor text isn't "Hey laser lips, You're Mother was a snowblower" I will be severely disappointed.
Copy pasting my comment from hearthpwn:
Not as good as Dirty Rat as anti-combo tech because you won't have as much of an idea of when you're likely to hit their combo pieces, as well as being 2 mana more expensive. Not as good as Deathlord for anti-aggro because it costs 1 more mana for only 1 more stat, making it both less above the curve and 1 turn later, as well as summoning the minion immediately.
Nonetheless, might still see play in dedicated fatigue style control decks, because it still helps you deplete their deck faster as well as giving you some chance of destroying combo pieces that could otherwise defeat you.
I always have a lot of decks during spoiler season if you want some ideas; remember, most of the internet would not function if there weren't plenty of users willing to volunteer their time to provide content and assistance for one another!

Great card. btw awesome site, still plenty of work here, but I already love it.
I don't really like these cards that can destroy an entire deck, as satisfying it is to do it lol.
Nice card. If bomb warrior becomes a thing, this will be great against combo decks.
I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

Very good card, will defineatly see play. Benefits players who understand the decks the opponent are playing. Very good anti-aggro card and potential combo disruptor.
Very good card against combo decks. Will see a lot of play
love so deck disruption does seem weaker than dirty rat but some deck disruption is better than none

it had better be this, or "and he heckled and heckled 'till his heckler was sore."

As many others have said, this will be very good against minion-light combo decks (especially most versions of Mecha'thun). If you can pull out the combo minion, opponent just loses.
