If you get Abominable Lieutenant or Mo'arg Forgefiend it's good, but there are a lot of misses you can get (minions with rush/charge) with wasted potential.
You have to remember how slow this is. You can't attack for two turns.
List of 8-cost minions for Shaman in Standard right now:
It's stacked with a decent amount of 8/8s with useful abilities, but the real standouts is only really Forgefiend and in slower matchups, Protodrake. Other than exactly those two, this card seems really, really slow. Whatever you get is on a 2 turn delay before it can do anything outside of Taunt, which is huge.
Don't minions with Charge/Rush thaw a turn earlier since they miss their normal attack phase? That's what used to happen anyways.
So Al'Akir the Windlord and Troll Centurion should be ready to act the following turn.
True for Charge, but not Rush. Rush minions must wait the full two turns just like a minion without Rush.
Al'Akir should be able to make 1 attack, but I know, spaghetti code...
I think you might pick Abominable Lieutenant fairly often.
