Good with Myra's Unstable Element, weird potential with Shudderwock, hell it can work in more draw-happy Mage or Warlock decks to keep them from fatigue. Solid but weird card.
And on top of that it's Odd, which in wild pairs crazy well with most Odd Mage cards.
And that's all discounting it can be used as cheap removal for crazy buffed cards, reverting a crazy buffed Test Subject, minion hit with Spikeridged Steed, or Immortal Prelate to cheap nothings.
Flark's Boom-Zooka actually plays quite well with certain Deathrattle Hunter decks, and I've gotten a few wins from it myself.
Temporus has seen play in dragon decks high on the ladder, and is actually a great card in control-metas. Far from 'the worst.'
So I agree with everything you said, except I'd replace it with King of Beasts for Hunter, which is an utterly useless card and a joke, and Embrace Darkness for Priest, which is a card so unusable it's never seen play. Like Priests version of Recycle
Also The Runespear may take it for Shaman, because holy fuck is that card bad. It could be 6 mana and I'd still be tentative to run it.
Sure sure, glad to help: what I mean by "double applebaums" is that they cost five. Any card 5 mana cost or under can be played twice with DK Valeera's passive hero power, and being able to summon two 4/5 taunts with healing effects is great value off of one card.
Same goes for the spellstones: since they cost five mana, if you have DK Valeera on the board you can play a Greater Spellstone and play it twice, effectively wiping their board which by ten mana in the game is practically a win condition.
If you want to craft DK Valeera that's up to you. She's generally considered a great card, but even if you tweak this deck a lot it's still a bit too slow to really win with. I'd recommend looking at cards with the higher winrate and crafting from there. Best of luck!
While Onyx Spellstone absolute can work (I've seen it work and have had it work personally), this variation is just too slow and just... not good.
Double Loot Hoarder instead of a Bloodmage Thalnos when you're running both Eviscerate and Fan of Knives?
If you actually want to give this a go, knock down to one Violet Haze (too slow), add DK Valeera instead of Violet Wurm so you can turn the Spellstones into 6 minion board clear and stave off death with double Rotten Applebaum's a turn. Oh, and of course swap a Loot Hoarder with Bloodmage Thalnos.
Honestly could work in a Genn Greymane + Murkspark Eel deck, but with single removal and Mind Control at an all time high just to take care of Voidlords, I don't see this being that viable.
What the hell's up with people disappointed by this card?
One of the more formidable 4-drops of Whispers of the Old Gods was a 4/2 Divine Shield minion, and it didn't even have the proc of regaining the shield.
The Glass Knight may not break any metas, but it's far from a bad card.
Not really; once you destroy the other minion, you can't exactly destroy it again. Spiritsinger Umbra's main power comes not just from immediate deathrattle, but the fact that you can essentially use deathrattles twice. Either way, that's two cards, 7 mana for a remove, and nearly every class has cheaper removal.
If you play Barnabus before you draw him, you can get some absurd value here. 18/18 on the board in one turn, plus whatever effects you copy.
If you're up for the risk it does have some nice Duskfallen Avianna synergy, and could make some cheap giants (though Zola the Gorgon would be the easier answer)

This would be OP even if it wasn't a Twinspell.
Voodoo Doll
Devilsaur Egg
Absurd Carnivorous Cube value and combos,
Low stat battlecries like Arcanosaur, Meterologist, Astromancer, Fungalmancer, Giggling Inventor, Former Champ, Master Oakheart, and Jan'alai, the Dragonhawk
And on top of that it's Odd, which in wild pairs crazy well with most Odd Mage cards.

Good cheap draw from Deathstalker Rexxar, very viable with The Marsh Queen, works with beast-blended Zul'jin, as well as cheaper deathrattle hunters.
Not meta-defining, but a solid and versatile card.

Not bad nerfs, although with no buffs that's going to utterly kill Druid for this meta.
If it's just for a turn Leeching Poison should've been 0 mana, but overall this is fine.

Unfortunately no, because then that ruins the Oakheart Synergy; if your 3 attacks become 4 attacks, you wont be able to recruit them.
Also, Keleseth is a bad recruit from Woecleaver and Oakheart, as you really want those Frothings or Dollmaster Dorian on the board.

This meta is just going to be rogues stealing rogue cards because everyone wants to play this.

Who knows though. Maybe Shaman can come back.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm going to run Millhouse Manastorm just for the sole purpose of watching insane memeable combos.
Someones gotta do it.
