Looks like a weaker [card]Chaos Nova[/card] that requires you to take face damage as well, and isn't an aggressive stat line for aggro decks. I don't see what archetype wants to include this.

There are a handful of big demons that are really good to cheat out along with a 7/9 taunt all for 9 mana. Big minion cheating has historically been powerful and the defensive body add up to a game winning build around that slower archetypes like highlander DH will want to utilize.

A great aggressive finisher, but also decent as a 3/5 on turn 4 to push 3 damage face. A card that has aggressive uses at any stage of the game is sure to be a staple for aggro Demon Hunter.

Guaranteed burst damage is no joke. Efficient mana wise at 7 mana for 10 damage when compared to [card]Pyroblast[/card], and the drawback of the damage occurring over 2 turns can usually be achieved with aggressive decks that dictate the pace of the game.

A really good finisher if anything. Will probably see play more in aggressive Demon Hunter decks than in slower archetypes.

Can't believe my deck got featured! Been having a lot of fun with it and I hope you all will too!

Overall, I'm alright with these changes. I don't think Blizzard wanted Galakrond Shaman to be unplayable (I mean, they gave [card]Galakrond, the Tempest[/card] for free for everyone, so new and budget players should at least be able to play with something that can win), so they made changes to weaken it's early game to make it more vulnerable against aggressive …

This is [card]Vulpera Scoundrel[/card] taken to 11. Having a minion that both contests the board really well on turn 3 and discovers a more tempo-driven card in a minion rather than a spell with [card]Vulpera Scoundrel[/card]. Should be a staple inclusion in every Highlander Hunter deck, if not allowing for a Dragon Highlander Hunter deck.

I think every Hunter deck will want to find room for this card. It is very powerful to generate 5 damage almost for free, not to mention the flexibility in usage between burst and tempo the card provides when the 5 damage hits the face or a minion respectively. It will actively shape how opponents play as they will always …

Anyway I slice it, this feels inferior to the resources available to Quest Druid. Want efficient removal? Why not have upgraded [card]Oasis Surger[/card], [card]Starfall[/card], and [card]Wrath[/card] instead? Want to draw 3 cards with [card]Gadgetzan Auctioneer[/card] for 9 mana? Why not draw 3 cards for effectively 4 mana with upgraded [card]Nourish[/card]? Pretty cool for a [card]Gonk, the Raptor[/card] deck I guess.

If Druid wants to play Dragons to support [card]Breath of Dreams[/card], I think they will have better options than this. Does nothing the turn it is played and takes multiple turns to recognize the full value of the battlecry, but a fun card none the less.
