Clarifications
- Cards which are drawn while Wilfred is active will stay at 0 mana even after he dies. (Source)
Cards you draw from your Hero Power cost (0).
He can summon anything, even a FEARSOME DOOMGUARD*. *He's pretty sure this is going to work out.

Am I the only one that's noticed that the card is named Wildfred instead of Wilfred?
EDIT: This has been fixed
Nope. I noticed as well.
You know what handlock was missing? Free taunt givers for their free molten giants. Problem solved! Thanks Blizzard.
But if you will draw your "free" molten and mountain giants you wont be obligated to fulfill the conditions to play them. So you can hold moltens and play Jaraxxus or play other minions without making mountain giants a dead cards or like playing him and Dr. Boom/Rag in the same turn. He actually gives you a lot new ways to play handlock.
Perfectly costed to allow you to use your hero power twice.
So um...this seems like an auto include in every warlock deck playing cards over 4 mana in cost.
Obviously not.. Why would you even think that? The text isn't that unclear..
It's already OP, what you're asking would elevate it even more, that's why it's absurd to even think about that question

So no Wilfred Warlock hero portrait :(
According to China's official website, the text should reads as follows: Cards draw from hero power cost (0).
If the Chinese text is correct, it means that this card may also affect your opponent should he be a warlock too.
Absolute insanity. Bigger removal/silence magnet than Emperor Thaurissan.
High mana cost might limit it's use, since often you are lucky to stay alive or out of lethal range until turn 6, but comboed with cards like Pint-Sized Summoner and Summoning Portal, the drawback is much lesser.
Attack value of 4 make this card somewhat difficult to neutralize for Priests.
Good thing Mage hero power doesn't draw cards, or Unstable Portal would make this really broken.
Why does this card sound so broken...?
Faceless -> Coldarra Drake + Floating Watcher + Wilfred = infinity +2 /+2
FACELESS VALUE
If you play Wilfred with Chromaggus on board do you get two zero-cost cards? My guess is no.
No because the second card would be generated from Chromaggus and NOT your hero power so no hero power effect from fizzlebang
Is this card verified by Blizzard? it seem rather broken?
I bet not. chromaggus puts a copy of the card you draw, by definition that card is not obtained from your hero power anymore. Also from the programming point of view, chromaggus basically does yourHand.add(card_you_draw.copy.reset), and fizzlebang will do card_you_draw.set_cost_to_0. If the programmers derped and left out the reset function, then you might have a discounted card from chromaggus if you put him on board after fizzlebang.
Chromaggus will draw you an additional card but it will not benefit from the effect - Chromaggus generates a copy of the card you draw but as it is not drawn from your deck per se it would not benefit from Wilfrid's effect. Besides even if it did, the amount of time you'd need to keep both of them alive to pull off anything worthwhile would suggest you already won the game.
Chromaggus + Tap = 8 Mana
So your play is a 3 turn stretch.
