I run a few in a control shaman, and there is a real benefit to how they are played.
Basically, if you are a true control whose aim is to go late game and have the ability to do it, these are able to be dropped for literally nothing. both of them. And still have 10 mana.
Some shaman combos are:
Elemental Destruction (3) + Frost Giant (0) + Frost Giant (0) + Faceless Shambler (4) {1/1 that gains target's ATK/HP with taunt} + Mana Tide totem (3) + Thing from Below x2 (0) = Concede
Ok Ok, that's the dream, obviously that many cards rarely happens, but that gets the point across and brings it to warrior. What type of cards can you include to, when situation permits, use such low cost behemoths to full benefit? Preferably cards that also have synergy with other cards in control warrior.
Faceless Shambler seems like a great card for control warrior. You could go the route of Handlock and drop a 4 mana argus or taunt.
Maybe a simple faceless manipulator would be good, or some taunt minions to protect them. Maybe you do one of my favorites:
Frost Giant + Frost Giant + Soggoth (untargetable 5/9 Taunt). Unless they have some type of huge AOE or minions already on board, good luck taking Soggoth out. Then Frost Giants wreak havoc.
Justicar seems like a no brainer in this deck too.
I've been wondering the same since Blood Warriors was released. But since I only own 1 Frost Giant and 1 Blood Warriors I haven't been able to test it (and I don't wanna craft the remaining cards).
If I owned the cards, I'd probably start with something like this
Basically very similar to Echo Mage with 1 Sunfury and a bunch of cards that lets you survive up until the big Giant turn. I don't think that this is more broken than the bunch of other stuff that Warrior can do (C'Thun, Worgen, Patrion, Varian Wrynn etc.) but I guess it's worth a try.
Hi. Is it good idea to run Frost Giant in Control warrior? Only use i can see is to bait some removal.
Does anyone has experienced this card in warrior deck?
Most legendaries you'd run as late game cards outclass it.

I tried it, seemed ok. My build wasn't optimal and I was low rank at the time so not sure.
Say "Wow" for RNG!
There's is otk variation with charge, faceless, and frost giant, but as far as a "handlock" warrior version I have no idea if that would work
