This happened to me as well, last week sometime I think. I think tried closing the client and re-opening, but that didn't work. I was going to login to battle.net and raise a bug request, but the next day when I went back I was able to get in. Sorry I don't remember the particulars -- the patch might have landed in between? Anyway if it doesn't go away, it's worth raising it with blizzard.
Seeing this getting played in Regis' stream, it surprisingly isn't locked in being only a Handlock card, as his Questline Warlock made pretty good use of it. Very few boards can survive a 4-5 damage AoE nuke, never mind 8-9.
Can someone confirm if this is happening to them too? Whenever I try to play it pops up the prompt to pay money or gold or exit except it doesn't make it fully to the screen. It stays blurred in the background. All I can do is exit.
Probably the only thing this has over Fungalmancer is that this has Taunt to protect the tokens you're buffing up. Defender of Argus is arguably better than this though.
Of all the cards that have ever been printed that made me think "WTF". . . this has to be the WTFiest. Take what was a 4 mana card, reduce that cost by 3, and make it tradeable, just in case you don't have anything you want to silence. Eliminate all buffs and librams and deathrattles. . . can't get over it. . . just wow.
Rustrot Viper is definitely a nice option, though I usually don't include tech cards for whatever reason, probably just to get used to messing around with the core and then finding ways to adjust it from there to better counter the meta.
As for the other changes, Mystery Winner -> Entrapped Sorceress definitely makes sense as its just a wider card pool that will usually provide something that we would like. As for cutting Explosive Trap and Bola Shot, I'm not a huge fan of, since I find them to be decent anti-aggro tools on their own, in addition to progressing the quest, as well as still being hesitant on the power of cards like Encumbered Pack Mule
I'll probably revisit this list after toying around with it once the new set comes out since this and the DH questlines are probably the ones I'm interested in playing the most, for better or for worse. Thanks for the suggestions!
Well its nice to know that all that words typed out over the course of the last week wasn't entirely for nothing. I would have done it anyway, but having a few rewards is definitely nice.

New Shaman Minion - Spirit Alpha
This can spiral out of control real dang fast with Lightning Bloom and how cheap Overload cards tend to be.
New Neutral Minion - Florist
Playable, but I doubt it actually finds a place in Shaman or Druid, it's too little discount.
New Warlock Minion - Entitled Customer

It on your opponent's side.

New Neutral Minion - Northshire Farmer
Definitely goes with every elwin boar deck.
New Neutral Minion - Nobleman
More interesting than good.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Fishy Flyer?
New Warrior Spell - Raid the Docks
I'm excited for this one!
New Warrior Minion - Remote-Controlled Golem
I hate this card now, but I think in the next set or 2 it's played with something.
New Warlock Minion - Entitled Customer
Pretty good for handlock.
New Warrior Minion - Harbor Scamp
Weak stats, cycle, but it ticks the pirate quest, so it'll see play.
New Priest Minion - Voidtouched Attendant
Face priest? Raise dead hurts more.
New Shaman Spell - Charged Call
It doesn't have overload. Nope.
How to Create a Private Fireside Gathering to Open Card Packs for a New Hearthstone Expansion - TITANS
But that was how it worked with bru’kan in the barrens
New Neutral Minion - Stormwind Guard
Probably the only thing this has over Fungalmancer is that this has Taunt to protect the tokens you're buffing up. Defender of Argus is arguably better than this though.

Questing in Stormwind - Better Understanding Hunter's Defend the Dwarven District Legendary Questline
I was thinking the same thing! The days of Yogg n Load Hunter were very, very fun days.
New Shaman Spell - Charged Call
If this upgrades without needing to be in the hand, this is so insanely good it's not even funny.
New Neutral Minion - Traveling Merchant
Did everyone else forget when Odd Paladin ran Frostwolf Warlord? This is as good if not better thanks to the cheaper cost alone.
When Clones Attack!
Gotta love brawls that are basically just "Hope you roll the better cards"

United in Stormwind

New Priest Spell - Shard of the Naaru
Going to be the most hated Priest card of the set...
And Priests won't even run it in their decks at all!
