Im tentatively putting this on two stars because there's a world where you can get multiple copies on this card on board and it does only cost 1, so its not entirely impossible to do quickly, unlike Pogo-Hopper.
But honestly, this kind of card often turn out to be trash. Too slow, no taunt, and no rush. Basically you've just spent your entire turn to do something of which your opponent can happily ignore. So against aggro this is bad, and against control this is only marginally better but nearly any AoE effect would get rid of this no matter how big it gets.
Destroyed entirely by Whirlpool. Meaning you auto concede against one of the most annoying deck in the game. Yeah, Im not liking its chances.
Would Shapeless Constellation transforming into this count as summoning one? Or that might work better as a finale since presumably it would have an 8/8 base and then get all the +1/+1s. I don't think there's a shortage of ways to copy minions, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Eh, i'm not sure about this card. It does seem like a fun card, and very similar to [Hearthstone Card (Pogo hopper) Not Found] except the effect is always there instead of this being a battlecry. But i'm not sure this kinda deck is fast enough. A lot of copy cards in priests are very slow, and even if the deck gets popular it will just get DESTROYED by control priests due to Whirlpool. I'm not sure this card is good enough, it needs some more support.
RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.
