Here's my review on this card:
Ticking Abomination has +1/+1 over Chillwind Yeti, but has Deathrattle: Destroy all friendly minions. So, it is obviously pretty bad in decks that focus on winning the game through Board Control. But what if you don't have a Board? Freeze Mage/Burn Mage play very few minions. The minions that Freeze mage plays are utility minions like Arcanologist, Babbling Book, etc. Maybe this can find place in Freeze Mage. This card also looks pretty good in aggro decks like Pirate Warrior which only care about their board till turn 3. Ticking Abomination won't work in Zoolock/Aggro Hunter/Token Druid though because they try to win through minion presence. After turn 3 Pirate Warriors try to close out the game with Weapons and Chargers and their minions can hardly stick on the board against Control decks. If this was a 6/5, then it would have been amazing in Pirate Warrior. Still, I think 5/6 is fine. It may get to attack a couple of times.
This card has another application - to pop Eggs and Warlock(the little we see) play Devilsaur Egg + Ravenous Pterrordax. But currently all eggs that we have in game summon minions with 5 or less Health and this guy doesn't have Taunt. So, your opponent can kill the egg first. Maybe, we will get better Eggs this expansion, but I doubt it since it doesn't fit the theme very well.
Rating: 3/5
This card is not that great, but can work in Pirate Warrior depending on the meta. Probably Bittertide Hydra is better, but maybe we will see an Egg version of Aggro Warrior and Warrior has tools for dealing damage to it's own minions.

Vote for it if you like it.
Meta-Defining!
Terrible constructed, okay arena
Worst than filler!!!!!!
Almost everything I had in mind when I saw this card has been said already, lol.
Anyway, unless some other new card suddenly makes this better, atm it's very niche / situational / risky. I'll wait to vote until we know more, but for the time being it seems really bad.
The only saving grace for this card will be if a card is revealed with text “(On this turn?) , all effects hitting your minions hit your opponent’s minions instead”…
Would have been amazing if it'd been a 4/7 or even 5/6 taunt instead. Has no synergy with any strategies (you do NOT want to bring this back with N'Zoth) and doesn't even have a health advantage over playable 4-drops like Priest of the Feast or Water Elemental which happen to bring useful card text as well. If you are playing this card, you don't want to have a board and if you don't have a board, you need to trade this into smaller minions, making the 2 extra attack completely irrelevant.
Straight garbage: 1/5
Seems like it's meant to work with a small board, a deathrattle board, or a deck that largely runs removal like mage.
Definitely need to see more before we can say if this is a bad card or not.

The 1st step towards a better game is firing Mike Donais! We had enough of his "skillful" balances!

thats a good card for arena, especially when kripp has no choice but to pick this card .
If this had taunt I could see it being useful in a deck full of cards like nerubian egg, devilsaur egg, twilight summoner and some more from this expansion...but without taunt they would just pop your eggs before killing it.....
Seems like a really, really bad card....I don't see this seeing play even in arena.
What is Hearthstone to you?
A fun and semi-competitive game with wacky effects and crazy RNG outcomes or just a card game you wanna grind as many wins you can get as fast as possible in?
maybe we will have good 4 mana spell..... and this is for random 4 cost minion?
Compared to this almost every other card will look godlike, that will get players hyped so they will buy packs. Cheap strategy Blizzard...
But thanks to the change you can open only two of those in one pack, can you imagine opening FIVE of them?
Play for joy of game, not for win.

that's not true, you can only get 2 copy of the same card in 1 pack, they said it
