I could easily see this seeing play in most control shaman decks. Definitely going to try it in my N'zoth shaman, and it's even made freeze shaman look pretty good. Maybe freeze could even be tier 2 this expansion.
In worst case, with one minion on board, you freeze it, so you have another turn for kill it.
With two minions, you can freeze one, and maybe kill another: one card for one card and time saving.
With three minions, you can freeze one, and maybe kill two anothers: two cards for one card and time saving.
Add Moorabi for a 10 mana combo with three minions on board: value.
So it's a good card, yes your opponent can play around, but you still can kill or freeze something.
AND: it's Freeze A MINION, so sometimes you can dupplicate one of yours with Moorabi whereas you cannot with all other Freeze effect except Frost Elemental & Cryostasis.
Seems strong if you can fully leverage it. Against a 1 or 2 minion board, it's pretty weak. I'm not excited to put it into a deck, but it'll be an exciting and interesting card to work with when you get it randomly.
The fact that they need 3 minions in the proper spots for this to be good is troubling. The more people use this, the more people wise up and place their minions unfavorably to play around this, and then it's really weak even if you hit three things.
Clarifications:
Take note that the minion you target does NOT receive damage. Only the one beside it receive damage.

Solid
Nice card.
Very interesting!
Uhh... wouldn't "the adjacent ones" be grammatically correct?
ummm Where the overload?
Cone of Cold for Shaman. Loses the targeted minion damage but gains more damage to adjacent ones but doesn't freeze it sounds like.
thats a badass card
6 damage + freeze divided by 3 minions, might even be good enough for non freeze shaman meme decks
seems strong. Its got a good board clear effect. And can punish poor positioning. Basically, you have to around this opposite of Meteor
Too situational.
12 wins in ArenA with: Mage and Paladin, first time legend with Rogue
Seems strong in most sham decks, not especially hyped about the freeze sham tho. Maybe next expac.
Surprise!

I don't think it's playable, people already learned good minion placement from Betrayel so you're going to be losing 3 damage a lot.
WHYYY did Shaman always get such great cards, if this woul be a Priest Card...OMFG
This is a much better multi-shot since you can target what you hit and also freeze something .
We'll see play and I like the fact that it makes people think about position more, like meteor .

Seems like a quite strong AOE removal for control shaman, quite good against aggro
I like position matters cards!
