I might lack the imagination to see its potential, but I'm not a fan of the card currently. Vashj Prime is slow and understatted, and you have to draw into her before you draw the big spells you want discounted. If the Shaman had received another big spell in Ashes of Outland to combo with Lady Vashj I could see where they're headed with the card, but they didn't.
Not a fan of either the base card or prime here that much. A super greedy shaman control list exists and I'm not sure that it wants this, but it is the most likely place for it to find a home. A spell specific skull of guldan + a tallstrider for seven is very dependant on the spells drawn. I think you want to draw one or two 3 mana spells off of it, play them immediately, then hold up your discounted boardwipe(s) for later, which seems okay but not really necessary against any deck that gives you enough time to pull it off. In terms of combo, you are more likely to draw your combo card than draw vashj, have her die and draw her prime first.

If you have the time, you should totally check out our weekly Hearthstone card design competitions! :D

This post is discussing the wild format.
the stats on her base for are okay, the spell damage +1 makes her look real good with cards like Lightning storm
her prime form is a nice card draw engine, and discounting spells by 2 or 3 means you'll have more flexibility with them.
But I'm wondering if you run Vashj with cheap spells or expensive spells?
Draw a few Lava Bursts or Serpentshrine Portals and this could be a BIG burst.

This one makes me want Azure Drake in standard to make a Dragon Spell Damage Shaman deck.
Looks pretty decent, though I don’t think it’ll see much play until some really amazing spells get printed (probably in the next expansion)
Who needs consistency when you could have fun?
Not the strongest of the Prime cards, but might see some play in spell Shaman as a finisher.
Kickass art imo. Its so awesome to see all these Frozen Throne/Burning Crusade "heroes" making a comeback.
This prime is great, but not the best, her starting body is great, though.
