This card has the potential bait for "not ready" for this decks.
Meaning you play this with doomsayer and have in hand the new card
Psychic Scream.
Now, you opponent needs to have like 15dmg minions to play, if you played this on 9 mana and after a dragonfire potion and Anduin the memes will be real. this card will catch off guard many players. The right setup and boom. you just need to have some combo cards in hand. Probably will be played like miracle rogue or exodia mage.
I can't believe my opponent was stupid enough to play this card (discovered from Historian)...
He have 30 life and I have 12 life and 9 cards in hand with Leyline discount, one of this cards are Pyros 6/6, my opponent really think he can play this crap and don't lose the game?
This is not high risk high reward card, this is press the concede button if opponent have anything left or the worst win-more card in this game history...
Regarding Temporus, it could have a nasty combo. But honestly, I feel this is an ill designed card. It will either lead to a uber powerful combo deck, like Grim Patron was pre nerf, or it will be garbage. I also miss both Raza as well as DK Alduin, so my chances at combo priest are dim. And I don't intend on investing on Raza, since he is rotating out soon.
I'm giving chance for the meta develop, but in all honestly, I feel I just won 2000 dust instead of two cards. Well, it's not that bad, really.
I personally think, that this card works best against control decks - since the game strategy of some of them (like my controllock) doesn't revolve around making a board, but more of playing the defensive game, you can easily give them a second turn, because they won't be able to kill you out of nowhere (that is, if they don't have a board) and they won't be able to stop your immense burst. This also might work against some combo decks, if you play the legendary early and they don't have their combo pieces ready - this is of course a bit risky, but still worth mentioning.
Another case, where this card would make a ueber combo, if priest had something like Ice Block. I know you were aware of this, I just wanted to repeat it.
So these two points describe the requirements for the ueber combo. If they aren't present, then... I think it will suffer the same fate as Astral Communion.
I chose Temporus from Kabal Courier, just to try it out. My opponent killed it during their turns, and I discovered that I no longer had an extra turn after laying out lethal damage. They cleared my giants and cast King Togwaggle and Journey to Un'Goro. I blame Disguised Toast for coming up with that combo. Fun to watch on his stream, less fun to have it done to you!
PSA: Do not craft Temporus. Craft Oakheart instead. Now that's a card!

Tried to theorycraft a Dragon Priest deck using Temporus as a (alternate or main) win condition, let me know what you think guys:

WTF???
I love this card. 70% win rate. Combo board clear deck it’s the nuts.
I played Miracle Rogue with Kingsbane and was didn't play a single Arcane Giant yet. Enemy is Shadow Raza at 24 health, and drops Temporus....
I play 2 arcane giants and Valeera DK's HP to play a third... pass turn to myself for lethal. Thanks for the 2 turn set up, Priest!

If you don't care about my story, ignore it. Don't mock me for sharing a fun time I had.

Pretty good card if your opponent has 3 health and no cards left.

My two legendaries. Temporus and Dragoncaller Alanna. (yep, Alanna was golden)

Been playing Temporus in a basic Lightspawn OTK deck with a lot of success.
I doubt this will see much play if Raza Priest is still frequent in the meta.
I think you described this card just right.

LOL TOLD U scrubs. This card is trash tier
When I discover it and get as highlander priest, I have about 50% dying if I dare playing it.
