this card is one a mana spell, lets see what it does for mana: it makes enemy's entire board 1 attk, so it gives you a perfect round of trade, and next? next turn your enemy can deal 7 dmg to you max; through minions. lets say enemy has only 2× 3 drops on board with 3 attack, so it heals you for 4.
yes a 1 mana spell that heals you and your board for probably 15.
all of what i said works even in a bubble, i haven't talked about combos that this card enables, we've seen our 10 drops easily stolen
from my point of view this cards power level is right next to Secret Passage and much higher than unnerfed Wild Growth, i hate the mechanic but if this is gonna survive it must be at least 3 mana
You can't be serious comparing a stall card to "1 Mana -> draw 5 cards". And remember that buffs still appeal. Like Cold Blood, Librams or Power of the Wild.
At 3 Mana Frost Nova would be strictly better, because your opponent is not going to be able to attack with anything on the board.

lets look at it this way: i take 15 dmg as a pain zoo to play a Flesh Giant in turn 5, he watches my stupid shenanigans for 5 turn, then steals it easily, steal man! not clear, steal!
so he has dealt 15 dmg to me and made a 8/8 for 5 mana
Wave of Apathy is not a problem card on its own. The issue is the combination with Cabal Acolyte etc...
I would not be opposed to changing the card to set attack to 2 instead of one. So we can trade into that damn 2/6. Overall it’s not really an offender. There are bigger fish to fry like Secret Passage and Sorc Apprentice...
Everything has a counter and in the current meta libram paladin says hello and would love more priest matchups.
It's hard to judge this card ina bubble, because its power level spikes in combos, combos require multiple cards, mana management, setups... pre turn planning and can be countered.
Example the best way to counter a t5 steal is build a board to lower the odds of the giant getting stolen. If you drop an 8/8 on an empty board turn 5 into a priest, well I'm sorry to say that's just bad play and you asked for it. The following combo isn't OP, you just failed, even when you knew the potential outcome.
Also, this card does little to nothing against agro decks. It's just a dead card in the priests hand, even with no combo it just delays by a turn and doesn't prevent buffs or deathrattles. So the frost nova comparison is poor at best.
It's just a different card and I think the mana cost is fine since it's situational at best and is easily countered or baited out by good players. Out of all the things some could complain about priest, this card is not an offender.
Jesus christ, what card doesn't need a nerf. Lets just delete the expansion so you babies will stop complaining about every card. Next you will be complaining about Cabal acolyte

Always expect the unexpectable!
You have a very rough definition of strictly better, if that means 2 mana more for little health saved.

Anything that can counter dumbfuck druid shit is a good thing. Period.
Fun > Meta
But priest itself is full of “Dumbfuck Shit” arguably more because you never lose to their 30 card deck, always “created by” bs.
