Myras Unstable Element Question

Hi guys! I’m a relatively new player so I was wondering how the new card Myras Unstable Element would be good. Wouldnt it just burn your entire deck if you used it early? Sorry if its a dumb question im still trying to unlock all the classes so im not very good.

These are the circumstances I find Unstable Element most useful.

In an aggro deck where you utilize the cards you drew to end the game very quickly. This kind of deck is usually jammed with one-drops and burn spells.

In a combo deck where you need a very specific subset of cards in your deck to win. Decks like Shudderwock Shaman are a good example of this. You obviously don't want to burn the cards you need for your combo, but there are still use cases where drawing the last 7-8 cards in your deck is very powerful.

In a deck where there are ways to shuffle powerful cards back into your deck. Gang Up can be an example of a way to do this. If you can empty your deck, any single card you shuffle back in is guaranteed to be drawn the next turn. If you can imagine a scenario where you shuffle many good cards into your deck, having an empty deck before you do that could be very powerful.
