I don't understand why 3 Priest decks omitted him. He does a very good job of clearing out minions that Shadow Word: Death can't catch.
I would also like to see the % of matches that had Hunter banned. Seven players did not bring Hunter, but I assume that's because they thought it would get auto-banned and wanted to have more options available.
I only use Loatheb because my 5 drops are weak, Loatheb give me a tempo gain in turn 5, force enemy to drop down minion (just to get past turn 5 for me). It can be good against Miracle Rogue
I'm assuming it will be a while after the new expansion before they release a new set of nerfs. They are very convinced that the cards will shake up the meta, so what is popular now might now be then.
Perhaps Loatheb would be run less on the tournament scene if people in the tournament scene ran more decks that weren't hurt by it (IE the people who brought Zoo, which doesn't care about Loatheb, for example).

That few? Thought it would be at least 63.
Very very powerful battlecry.
I'm also surprised that few decks used him.
I think he should be a 4/5 or 5/4 at the very least, not sure which.
