Feeling a little meh on this card, but I think the concoctions are a quite strong package overall to put in Rogue decks. Would those decks also be able to swarm the board to get value out of Putricide is what makes me hesitant. Right now, Door of Shadows barely gets infused, and I'm not sure if there's going to be a new Tempo Rogue brewed out of this.
I quite like this, many of the single Concoctions have comparisons to mediocre 3 cost spells (such as Arcane Intellect or Deadly Shot), but mixing them together combines effects while keeping the cost at 3 (or rather 0 with this guy.) Also you're not restricted to just the turn, you can just tempo him out against an early board while you wait to draw your Concoction brewers.
I think people are sleeping on this, this is turbo Defile, nuking boards completely no matter the deathrattles, with the caveat being your stockpiled corpses.
Interesting. Obviously very strong against board decks through the sheer taunt wall you produced, but I'm struggling to think of any other use for this, as you can't run Grave Strength as that's triple unholy. Maybe you're going BUU, using this alongside Corpse Bride to get 0 mana Stitched Giant and hope to land a BGBM the following turn.
If you're any board-focused deck like Token Druid or Implock, you are praying this card never shows up, because it just turns your strengths against you. At only One Unholy, it's not unlikely that Frost or Blood DKs might dip their fingers to pair with their own board clears.
The only thing that really makes me hesitant about giving this card 5 stars is the Blood Death Knight archetype itself: lots of sustain but no "I win" button, which like Control Warrior is vulnerable to decks that do have the button or can out greed them.
As a stand alone card, this probably would be a 3 star, only barely better than Flanking Maneuver. But combined with Kurtrus, Demon-Render, this basically turns into a Pyroblast swing.
The Spell DH suddenly looks like a real deck with this! The only real downside when pairing with the Relic package from Nathria is that you can't discount the minions with Dimensions.
Unless Shaman suddenly turns around with a Shattershambler type card, this probably isn't going to make it into any Undead aggro decks, and I'm sure Control has better options than a mid double layered taunt.
The fact that you can literally splash this into nearly ANY Shaman board deck is pretty scary. Basically demands other board decks to run Smothering Starfish or suffer getting overwhelmed with stats.

Coin, Prep, Potion Belt, Ghoulish Alchemist, Mixed Concoction.

Seems pretty vital for Blood DKs, getting corpses without needing to rely on minion density.
Haha, Sire D goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

Man, both of these options are terrible. Branching Paths is a better card
Mmm yes, I could try to bore and out last my opponent between this and fatigue... OR I can play a deck that goes Skibidi bop mm dada
Brann, Innervate, Anub'Rekhan, 5 mana Astalor, 8 mana Astalor x2, maybe also a Zola or Sire D...
Yeah, Armored Ramp Druid is going to be good.
Might actually be alright for Aggressive DH decks, potentially putting out a 2/1 or two and an Crimson Sigil Runner
Ah yes, the meta tyrant that is Big DH
I'm not totally sold on this. Most of the time, the extra health may as well be Armor, though 10 Armor + a Draw is pretty good.

As is, this is a fantastic card.
Decent fuel for Spell DH, a pity it's not Fel.
