I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this guy is just 'good'. Not great, not even Very Good. Slightly above mediocre. And I will admit I think there's a strong chance I'm wrong on this, considering the potential power of the effect, but dammit, I'm sticking to my gut feeling on this one. lol

He's obviously best used with either strong aoe or strong single target removal, both of which will require the player to have an abundance of mana. So, he's effectively only playable at 7+ mana or more, depending on your class. Then, you have to have the strong removal in hand while you also have him in hand. Finally, your opponent has to have something valid on their side of the field worthy of playing it on. That is actually quite a bit of criteria necessary to make him amazing or '5 star'. Of course, you can always play him sub-optimally. You can tempo him out as a simple 5 mana 4/6, or you could just "steal" a weak minion or minions, depending on your opponent's board and/or the removal in hand, the latter being IMO the most common scenario. He does have that tiny bit of flexibility but that doesn't lend him credence of being a 5 star game changer.
