Senior Game Designer Alec Dawson has confirmed via Twitter that playing a second Shadowform will refresh your HP usage that turn, but will not upgrade it to the 3-damage version.
It would make sense lore-wise, but they're not really good enough to be one-ofs. Gorehowl maybe, just because Control Warrior can afford to run single cards, and like to be prepared for every eventuality. But Doomhammer will probably only really be useful for Aggro/Combo decks with Stormstrike and Rockbiter Weapon and I don't think those deck would survive if they had to rely on drawing a single card.
The cards will remain in the Ashes of Outland set, and if you have them you'll keep them. Then you get another free version of all the Core cards. At the end of the Year of the Gryphon you'll lose any Core cards you don't own elsewhere (for example as part of the Ashes of Outland set), and have them replaced by the new Core.

I"m getting the feels about the nostalgia of this set coming out.

3 for 6/14 in stats is pretty solid. Granted you gotta draw the wife, but still

New Neutral Minion - Blademaster Samuro
Finding a way to either hand or board buff him makes him pretty solid at getting rid of smaller minion hordes.

Aren't all of Shaman's spell damage, Nature?

I'm looking forward to how this will interact with the changed spell types. Although, isn't most of Shaman's spell damage... Nature?
New Priest Spell - Desperate Prayer
I can see some potential, but then again I don't know how the spell types are going to intermingle

As long as you have [Hearthstone Card (Animated broom) Not Found] or something else to help you damage it and survive, then you're golden
