Probably the best time to play this card is when you have 7 Mana. Like, topdeck this guy on Turn 7 --> play a 2/2 and deal 2 damage --> Play a 5/5 and gain 5 armor.
Decent board reload, finishes off a minion from the previous turn, stabilize a little with 5 extra HP, and then give you a guaranteed Turn 8 play, or if you draw/are holding something better for Turn 8 then it can still be banked to an even better Turn 10 swing.
So, on turn ten you might get a poor man’s denathrius?
