I actually really like the idea of Combo being used to represent "flow" in a hip hop song.

That being said, I pray that this means Shadowstep is finally gone, because otherwise we're getting Roguestone for the third time in a row.

Wasn't aware Flo Rida was into jazz.

"And there was much rejoicing."

with this two "return to you hand" cards, seems that shadowstep will not be in core set

Seems mediocre. It's a spell tutor, but not a great one and it's probably pretty hard to activate.

Good card all around, even better if you can discount it and play it early, but it's certainly not enough to carry an entire archetype by itself.

Kinda boring if all Shaman is allowed to do is play good stats for the cost with no deeper synergy

Could be a decent card, but it honestly feels a bit too slow. The nature of overload means that you get a benefit early for a downside later, meaning that the mana cheat isn't as much mana cheat as it is just offestting the downside of Overload, but that by itself isn't really unfair enough in my opinion

Decent control card, but what does Control Shaman build up to?

It's neat, and technically you can use Prescience to get him on curve without losing tempo, but how exactly does he win you the game?

There has to be some kind of payoff for this to be worth playing a 5-mana 5/5 as the centerpiece of your deck

Looks kinda underwhelming.

Inzah isn't bad, but he doesn't really enable anything crazy (outside of Pack the House on turn 6) and I doubt there's gonna be any other Overload cards in this set, so the Core set will have to carry this.

Even as a package it doesn'T make sense, we don't really have endgame for a midrangey Shaman deck now that everything Bru'kan related rotates.

I hope the other part of the Shaman set is a bit more interesting.

If you have 100% collection, you can try building a deck of your own and play it. Rather than limiting yourself with Tier 1-2 decks, you can use your imagination to surprise your opponents. I mean, I don't have full collection and don't like the state of Wild, which made me go away at times. Yet, I'm still playing despite the issues because it gives me such satisfaction to beat down meta decks. Like, I'm playing Gazlowe on my Mech Warrior decks with Dr. Boom hero card. Or, Trade Prince Gallywix on Thief Rogue decks and so on.

Yeah, I can see Overdraft moving to core. Makes overload somewhat viable.

EDIT: Thanks for some input, screw you for downvoting such threads. Found a new deck I enjoyed playing and reached legend for the first time!

I'm seriously considering quiting HS...

... And I've been playing since Open Beta

... Have a 100% Collection

... Am not an on/off but better/worse player (Never reached legend, but enjoyed the climb in several expansions, peaking at rank 1 5 stars :P)

... have all the original classes at 1k+ wins / DH 500+

If this gets any traction, I'll explain my personal concerns, but I would REALLY like to hear some new/positive/encouraging views on why one (I) should continue playing

Inzah could be a really powerful card, but it depends heavily on the cards around it being good. Stormwind and most of the support for overload shaman is leaving this rotaion though. Honestly, he’ll need a few more cards before I think he’s worthwhile in standard. I’m no frog shaman expert, but I think he might be too slow for wild, though since [Hearthstone Card (Drek’Thar) Not Found]’s probably gonna stay dead for the foreseeable future this card isn’t hopeless there.

Altered Chord is a really nice spell once again held back by a lack of overload in rotation. Not to mention it competes with Tidal Surge right now. I do think it’s a good card though.

Jazz Bass Is a really solid weapon. Honestly if overload is good in standard this usually makes the cut. Has a decent curve with Command of Neptulon letting you squeeze in Lightning Bolts and Novice Zappers alongside it.

Pack the House - Does not look like what overload shaman needs right now. Does curve with Inzah and is a decent card on its own. Also Jazz Bass could probably do something neat with it.

Flowrider is a solid card. If overload shaman somehow makes it this sees play. There’s currently no naga support for shaman to make this more interesting.

I really like this, solely because of the trade value.  You can postpone it for later, get a different card, and have a targeted kill for minions that can get around the "elusive/evasive" feature. 

I can totally see control decks utilizing this, but not an overpowering card

You know that someone was thinking, "You know what sounds good?  Something with Charge that will be abused."  

Someone REALLY wanted to use Northshire Farmer really bad with this one. 

So I am curious, if it will be Dead Man's Hand and shuffle each card into your deck, or if it will be one card that when drawn will put them into your hand?  

I cannot imagine that it would be the latter, but I am curious to it. 

With Overdraft and Command the Elements rotating, I'm not sure how overload shaman works in the upcoming 4 set meta.
