The issues I see are the following: Firstly, you need to have the Saphire spellstone in Hand when you Play your overload Cards. That makes your Hand worse, because you have an (at this time) unplayable Card in Hand or you just do not have the spellstone and it doesn't get upgraded when you Play Lightning Storm or Flamewreathed Faceless. Secondly, you can't Combo it with big minions, because it costs 7 mana. And a 10 mana Combo with a 3 drop is just a 2 mana value gain (four 3 Drops for 10 mana) which is not enough. Thirdly, in the bad cases, this Card is just that: Bad. If you have only damaged or bad minions on board and/or the spellstone is not upgraded at least once, it is very rarely a good Play. And finally and most importantly, the insane comboes like when your lich king survived undamaged (maybe with an ancestral Spirit on him) and you summon three copies for 7 mana, then it seems to be a win more Card since you already have an undamaged lich king the second turn. 

1). Are you sure the card needs to be in your hand to be upgraded? In that case, it's really bad. I've thought it works like the quests.

2). Why I can't combo it with big minions? There are big minions with reduced costs, and I can play this card on the next turn if the minion survives. 

3). Sometimes it's good to summon three copies of a damaged minion - especially if it has a great Deathrattle. Sometimes it's good to summon three stealthed minions. But yes, sometimes it will be just a "win more" card.

1) of course I don’t know for sure, but I think it is. If I am wrong and it can be upgraded in your deck, then upgrading it will be no big issue and the spellstone becomes a lot more consistent and of course better.

2)  yeah, I forgot the giants and in particular snow fury giant that has good synergy with overload. Still, if the giants are the only combinable minions, it will be inconsistent because they are only two, or you need to put a lot of giants in like with the naga sea witch, restricting your deck building. And unlike with the naga, playing the spellstone will still cost 7.

3) my problem is that the good cases have so many “if’s” that I don’t believe they can consistently be pulled of. That is, if I am right with my assumption that the spellstone only upgrades in your hand. Otherwise it might be playable. But I always had problems to get good value out of Spirit Echo and that only costs 3 mana. And the spellstone costs 7 mana. In my experience, expensive cards need at least an easy condition or no condition at all to be good. With bonemare you can have any minion on board to get full value. Even if you play a 1 mana minion, you only lose charge. A 1 mana minion will not suffice for the spellstone.

Assuming you're running Snowfury Giant and have sufficient card draw, you can probably get snowfury down to 0 and then play this. 7 mana and two cards for four 8/8's? Yeah, not bad, but I assume it only upgrades when in your hand, so definitely a late game play. But you'll probably be saving some of your lightning storms and volcanos for later game anyway. Also, if you have four snowfury giants then they get damaged, evolve them into deathwings. Bam

So the final version of this summons 3 copies of a "random" minion? that would suck to get 3 Fire Flys.....

There are two things needed before I can rate it properly.

First, if you need to have the card on hand. I imagine that you won't, otherwise the card would be quite garbagey. I feel this works like Thing from Below, i.e., it will work even if it's on your deck.

Second, other shaman overload card synergy.  We all know how much Tunnel Trogg enable overload mechanic in shaman.

Also, just how broken is this card gonna be in Wild? It's easily abuseable. Leeroy was mentioned, but Thaurissan really allows a multitude of shenanigans.

Even a Keleseth buffed Southsea Deckhand with this spell and Bloodlust while you have Doomhammerequiped (or any other weapon, really). A more absurd, over the top alternative. Just to note that there are more than one way to charge your way into lethal. At least this spell is highly costed.

So now with Grumble, Worldshaker this card have gain much value. 8 mana for Rag, Ysera, etc.

27-48 damage combo with Fire Plume Harbinger, Grumble, Worldshaker, Leeroy Jenkins, Windfury or Rockbiter Weapon, Lesser Sapphire Spellstone lvl 2 or 3.
1. Reduce cost of Grumble
2. Play Grumble with Leeroy
3. Leeroy+windfury/rockbiter+spellstone

Wild Combo: 
Thaurissan on Leeroy + this card final stage + Abusive sargeant = 32 dmg. OTK 
Without Abusive = 24 DMG

I just beat a Control Mage that had 50 health(20 armor) with 4 Snowfury Giants with Windfury

this card has made Concede Shaman viable again. really enjoying Shaman again right now
