I agree. You would definitely play it after you've exhausted you're good tempo cards.
What makes me excited about it is that in Shaman it is NEVER a dead card.
Maybe you play some 1 mana cards and hero power and this guy towards the end, you're opponent is hopefully low, and if they dont clear you can flametongue leathal, or you're taking anchor totem and pumping those one drops for a reload.
You have Bolner in most Shaman decks maybe a Brann, maybe you're abusing some other battlecries most of the Nagas and Murlocs are battlecrys now you also have this for some solid reload. It's just another added bonus that it gives you two of the better cards in aggro Shaman (Anchor or Flametogue) of off a hero power.
It can also snag extra Snowfall Guardians, and Maccaws
Schooling is actually an amazing card, and you should run two.
It is one of the best removal cards for Shaman.
It can be played proactively to just not float mana.
It can provide bodies for Biolume in burn shaman.
I thought it wouldn't be good, like most people, but after running it the felxable and usefulness is just so good.
Also experimenting with Florist (a neutral 2 mana 2/3 that reduces the cost of a nature spell by one at end of turn) Not amazing, but it's solid stats and targets the card burn shaman is built around in a positive way. It has won me a game or two, but mostly the reduction hasn't been as impactful as I thought it would.

You can always hero power and play Almagam of a Deep to discover a totem (Flame Totem/Anchor Totem) Seems pretty good in aggro Shaman decks.
Hero powering instead of developing tempo on t2 seems pretty bad in aggro decks of any kind

It's a great card in any tribal synergy deck, whether that's pirates, totems, murlocs, beasts....
