I personally think this card slots into Control Warlock after rotation. Right now control warlock relies on N'Zoth, the Corruptor for it's second taunt refill alongside Bloodreaver Gul'dan. This card plus Summoning Portal on turn ten is 6 2/4 taunt minions, sure not as strong as Voidlords but if the deck survives into the expansion I would not be surprised to see this card present in the decklists
I like the basic design of how it can scale into the late game. It's not as good as Tar Creeper on turn three (sometimes the 2 attack on your turn might matter). However, it's a much better card late-game. Being able to put down two or three bodies down on the board can stop multiple minions, force more bad trades, and prevent getting blown out by a single silence. I wouldn't be surprised to see this replace Tar Creeper or Stonehill Defender, but I also wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't happen, either.

As to Quest Rogue, I think it probably costs too much. If you're playing 3 copies on turn 9, that's wicked late and I'd rather just have Valeera. If you're playing 2 copies on 6, it's an OK speedbump, but unless you've already got Cheat Death up, it won't get very far, since they'll both die. If you're playing 3 mana and bouncing it, that makes me nervous. You usually don't have that much mana to spare. Quest Warrior I can see with this, however. Being able to throw down multiple activation in a single card is nice. Meanwhile, it's just a deck designed to go later into the game, so it'll have more mana to spare.
When I first saw this card, the first thing I thought of was quest rogue and quest warrior, not too sure if this card is good enough to see both those decks come back only time will tell, but I think this is still an ok card, especially for maybe budget players, seems like a decent blocker, question is...would you still play this over something like tar creeper? I'm not too sure.
