I really need to know what the text flavor is on this card... perhaps a reference to a song by Sir Mix-A-Lot?

Edit:

What a disappointment:

Many wonders lie within, but they are not mere toys when your mind is their plaything.

Tutors are always nice so this might see play, especially if Shaman gets a really bonkers weapon in the future. So far the good weapon targets this can get are The Fist of Ra-den, Rune Dagger (should Spell Damage Shaman ever take off), Doomhammer, and the new weapon that was just revealed. 

Claw Machine isn’t a horrible Mech for N’Zoth. It’s if you took Fireball and Scavenger’s Ingenuity and mashed them together. You don’t get targeted draw but it’s still not a horrible play. Plus bringing it back with N’Zoth would give you a nice defensive answer with a draw

I'm liking this new archetype that's being pushed for Shaman, reminds me of the Enhancement Shaman builds in WoW. I hope this archetype takes off.

This strikes me as both a build-around card and something that you can just slot into any midrange/aggro Shaman deck. This is a must-kill for your opponent, so having a weapon equipped then attacking with this on board is a potentially powerful play. Shaman has some good weapons like the evolving one, but I think it needs more for Inara Stormcrash to be fully taken advantage of. But even having the 5-attack weapon from Galakrond could potentially deal 14 damage if Inara's on the board. 

My only gripe about this card is the art...reminds me too much of the horrible Dragonslayer art back in KnC. It's most likely the same artist. 

Wow, that is actually pretty good. You can run it and get +2 Spell Damage on the dagger, with a hefty extra +6 to the face. Even without a weapon, just dropping this and slapping some stuff is also nice.

I see some combo potential but standalone it is also pretty good, so will be good in arena.

It an ok weapon tutor if Shaman needs it

Weapon tutor, nice! Helps to find Runic Dagger and The Totem Axe, for what its worth.

3 mana 3/2 weapons are usually decent, so it is ok I suppose.

Ooh, nice Warrior cards...

For real though. What.

* Warrior looking at Shaman new arsenal *

Decent weapon tutor I suppose.

Its just better War Axe. Combined with the new legendary, that’s a 10 damage to the dome... really good burst, it could actually provide that small boost that is needed to close out games. Eh, I’m not going to bash the new archetype until we actually get to try it out. Just... not getting my hopes up

Great card that will definitely see play in any slow Warlock deck. You always want to play the Corrupted version of this since it's not that hard to trigger anyway; latest you can play this is on turn 8, which isn't bad considering you're getting an 8/8 demon that shaves off 5 cards from your opponent's deck, all for 6 mana. Not to mention you can get a 0-mana copy of this from Y'Shaarj the Defiler. 

One of the best cards in the set, I think. This will be incredibly annoying to play against. 

Here's the shaman mandatory weapon to promote the archetype, not that it is a staple tho ..

Now shammy is likely to steadily attack - a must kill

That's cute and effective - should see play

Windfury is shaman only mechanics (and a few neutrals I suppose), so those are shaman, but it was obvious they are pushing weapon Shaman when the revealed Deathmatch Pavilion

That bundle of reveals is thematically coherent
