There could be some OTK Magnetic shenanigans potential on turn 9, assuming you still have a sticky mech on board.
I'm going to look at these cards with a Standard lens. I think that realistically, this card will be used on one of the following MOST often: Taunt minions, Rush minions, potentially Windfury minions. I do think a real target for this card will be Free Birds, because they will be 4 mana 8/8s with Charge, and they can be tutored out with Selective Breeders. This will probably honestly benefit Hollow Hounds the most because of the insane value 24 damage on board truly is, and 24 healing. All I can say is at least it is pretty late in the game, and from what we've seen so far there is no way to get this effect out earlier in the game for Hunter. Also, this is all coming from a Hunter main, so keep in mind my take may not be as unbiased as it could be. From my perspective, Hunter already has a lot of Big beasts, and this card won't actually benefit that archetype all that much other than the Hollow Hounds. This card might fit into another archetype altogether, more of a mid-range deck that uses the Free Birds as a finisher like 2 King Krushes at once.
This is just dumb... I don't think people were thinking when this was created. The idea of having Face Hunter not just be really oppressive in the spell field, but now having a 1 mana Stonetusk Boar that is now an 8/8 charging at you is really scary. I'm like 90000% sure that there will be a nerf or something to allow a counter to this.

This with two stonetusk boars and a battlegrounds battlemaster the next turn?
Good with 1-mana Rush, Charge and Taunt minions.
Woo more hounds
