We will have to see on this one. It would be good as an early board-control tool, but after the battlecry effect fades, it's not that strong. Also, Rush is in Shadowverse and probably other card games, so it feels like Blizz is taking ideas.
When compared to something like Flanking Strike or Jade Lightning, I don't think this is very good. It does 1 more damage, but isn't guaranteed to leave a body behind, and if a body is left behind, it's probably pretty easily cleared.
Absolutely insane in arena, and I think it's playable in constructed, as well. It's basically firelands portal, but it costs 2 less and summons a 2-drop-ish instead of a 5-drop. I can definitely see it getting a ton of play.

Of course, the rest of the set might change that.

Keening Banshee Lots of 4s can Tradeyes, but i don't think it quite fits standard in a vacuum

This is a great card. It could help swing board control on turn 4 and set you up for something on turn 5. Of course, so much turns on what other cards are revealed... but I like the idea of an aggressive warrior deck coming back.
This is sort of like a 5/1 weapon, which leaves a minion if it kills and isn't killed, I think it's a very strong card and will see play if there's a sort of tempo warrior around, warrior needs a lot of help right now, this card is quite strong.
rush like that is exactly a keyword from shadowverse, though.. well it makes sense to name it that way.
Also I'd say it's pretty good as on the spot removal. Maybe Spiteful Warrior becomes a thing, they might want to run this since they can't run cheap removal.

Seems like an amazing Arena pick. I don't see where it'll fit in constructed yet but a 4 mana 5/5 charge is insane value
Hearthstone is a game of "copy and pasting"
Great in unlimited control warrior. Great for arena too.
Warrior will get stuff this expansion so I'll keep this one in mind
Pretty good in arena, not enough good on ladder.
it is good against many taunt minions but not that great. I vote playable.

Good, especially in arena. Don't know if it will be played in warrior (or warrior will even be played LUL).
Waifu bait.

I tried having fun once. It was awful.
Seems like a perfect Tar Creeper eater to me.
Considering that I've never been a fan of heavy control warrior, giving some mid-range tools to the class is a big yes for me.
I just don't think it will make the cut in Standard or Constructed. Its a good reactive tool but it feels like just another reactive tool for Warrior.
It's okay. 4 mana 2/5 is not good stats....it's good in a control deck IF your opponent has something on the board.
