Wish Toxfin is still in standard, then this card would be legit.

As it stands, the word 'play' and not 'summon' is the crucial decider here. And unfortunately, like so many other murlocs, the best part of this card is that its a 2/3 murloc for 2. The description is a bonus, a good bonus mind you, but a murloc deck rarely has the luxury of keeping cards in their hand, so if the only option is to slam this on 2, then on 2 it goes then.

Since Underbelly Angler would be rotating, shaman needs more murloc reloads for this card to ever shine more than a penny's worth.

is it just the general hero powers? is pool of hero powers different for duels? this might be really good on duels

Seem like a solid minion, although the frenzy won't often result in more than 2 or 3 attack (at least in the early game)

well that just makes it bad because noone would play a 3-mana 3/3 with lifesteal that does nothing else for 2/3s of the game

This is basically Omega Devastator, which saw play in control decks quite a lot. Deals less damage but heals you, which is great in Warlock.

Just a Weird Card, also when was this revealed, I guess I missed it.

Most of the 'ranked' cards provide an interesting choice to players: play or hold? Not so much with this card though: you may want to hold it til rank 2, but rank 3 doesn't seem good enough. Maybe increase the cost reduction to 4 instead?

So far it looks like they are trying to push a midrange warrior theme. I hope it works, but it rarely does.

Amazing value especially in arena.

There is going to be a TTK with 2 copies of this card.

Hero Power decks are always rather boring. I want burn spells back.

It's lit! 

Good 1 drop and presents a must kill target. Probably won't be some massive 6 attack monster very often. 

Useless without more murloc support

I mean there was a similar card called Warbot in GvG which was never played. This is strictly better but I am not sure it will see play. Warrior 1 mana 1/3-s had to be crazy busted to be played, this is allright, but not busted. And with Risky Skipper rotating, the enrage style tempo warrior decks might struggle a lot

1-mana 1/3s typically see lots of play, even when they are vanilla (Dire Mole was played in plenty of decks that didn't care it was a Beast.) This will likely see play in just about every Warrior deck for the next two years. 4-stars.

As a big fan of murlocs and playing them every expansions, I can say that a 2/3 for 2 is a great addition for murlocs and will be auto include. That say, the effect is not insane if murloc is still an aggro thing. I always win/lose my games at 7 mana. This card might be a finisher especially if we run the murloc for 0 manas. It can also damage taunt minions that are in our way. BUT the real use for me will be against another aggro deck. You play it and destroy the opponent minions by doing 2 or 3 damage to all the board.

There also is a small possibility that murlocs become a tempo deck, it was already the case in paladin with the dragon package. We'll have to wait but, when blizzard does add a murloc synergy in one class they also add about 2 neutrals murlocs. They also 90% of the time add a murloc with the expansion keyword so I'm looking forward for the frenezy murloc !

Amazing even without frenzy

I'm just going to point out that Warbot, which is basically the same card with a mech tribe but no chance to get more than 1 attack, wasn't ever played competitively.

That doesn't mean Warsong Envoy won't be played, but it's definitely not a sure thing. I think part of the reason is that both cards only have upside when they lose health, so they aren't as sticky as you normally expect 1/3s to be.

Nice 1 drop, technically could be 17/2 for one mana (14 damaged minions, 2 damaged players after Whirlwind) 

4 mana 3/5 deal 1-2 dmg to all enemies. Strong card.

I don't even have to read the effect. It's a 1/3 for 1 with an upside. This will be played a lot.

Warrior have 4 mana weapons, so can activate the effect on curve, and if you can handbuff it it's a huge tempo swing.

Art really doesn't matter - we could leave them blank =)

Famous last words as all card art connoisseurs prepare to sharpen their pitchforks. 

It's like mage freeze is back again but before we played anthonidas to win. There is no more anthonidas now so what the win condition?

One of the strongest upgradable cards of this set for sure.
