We need to wait and see how this interacts with Baku and whether the effect stacks, but this could be used in some ridiculous Baku face hunter shenanigans...
It absolutely does because it's not a question of stacking. Baku changes the hero power from Steady Shot to Balista Shot. Then Automaton doubles Balista Shot's damage.
But in Hunter, you'd want to run Blackwald Pixie instead of this. Same result on a more aggressively statted body. Maybe you run both since you're only playing with half the card pool?
Dealing 6 and healing for 12 seems like a bugged interaction. I'm sure it will be contained to 6 & 6, 12 & 12, etc.
But you're not really going to want to run this in Warlock, because as I said, this card is completely dead in your hand until you play the DK on turn 10 (unless you want to draw a card and deal 4 damage to yourself, all for the low low price of playing a 5-mana 4/4....)

Life before death. Strength before weakness. Journey before destination.
I REALLY like this card. I think I like it more than how good it is. Its just another quality card that I WANT to try out. That's what I'm liking about the WW so far... quality cards (not OP) that I want to play around with.
sadly for odd warrior, doesn't apply to warrior, luckly for odd warrior, applies to rag hero power,
but 16 damage if it doesn't go face it's an overkill on anything (8 was enough of an overkill)
on odd priest it can heal for a lot, but it's kinda expensive to do so.
Not if you can get 2 on the board and do 32 dmg! If you have both in hand, you even have a bit of mana to spare to keep the board clean along with the weapon! It could be a viable finisher for control warrior...
Good luck getting a 4/4 for 5 to stick on the board it won't, thaurrisan was a 5/5 for 6 and really rarely ever stayed on board more than one turn against refined decks.
I see the trolden potential though, and maybe quest warrior will run it but, if you get to the rag phase you probably are already winning, so it's a win more card, and good only in the scenario you completed the quest already.
About warlock we are on the same page, the card is useless unless you are already winning (playing the DK is mostly being on the winning side, specially against aggro).
It's a win more card in both those scenarios.
It could be strong in odd mage or priest, or maybe just priest which runs the DK, because there you get 4 damage for 7 with a threatening 4/4 or a 8 heal for 7 with a body, or 4 damage pings on anduin.
Uhhhhh i knew there were going to be HP support cards when i saw the odd an even guys, but funny thing, i think this guy should cost either 4 or 6, because i'm pretty sure this should be even support and not odd support but ehh..maybe we'll have even costed Hp support cards as well.
And this was why Raza was nerfed... I mean this isn't quite on the same level of capabilities and the raza otk strategy in wild has more to do with spawn of shadows now, but this is kind of a mini velen. Play this with Baku in hunter with hero power and that's a 5 mana 4/4 deal 3 damage to your opponnent, but you have to play it at 7 mana... wait a second that's just an underpowered Nightblade that can get additional hits in and is a mech!
Basically this is a card you'll want to play with Shadowreaper Anduin, Bloodreaver Gul'Dan, and maybe Jaina (with Garrosh being interesting but overall probably not worth it).

This 10 Mana otk combo looks very cool. The only problem that 3 Mana slot is too important for quest warrior. But anyway it will be fun to try such deck, I'm sure it should be non-Baku list btw.
EDIT: Well, no, thats bad idea. Even single dude can ruin this combo, not saying that warrior has no reliable way to clear control warlocks board endgame. I think warlock will be unbeatable matchup for any quest warrior :(
Dealing 6 and healing for 12 seems like a bugged interaction. I'm sure it will be contained to 6 & 6, 12 & 12, etc.

Actually, this kind of makes me excited for Baku Hunter. 2-mana 6 damage Ballista Shot seems pretty good.

ya'll.
This won't be run in Warlock.
Constructed decks can afford situational cards, but not dead cards.

This card is the cause of Raza the Chained to be nerfed Kappa
I hate this one. The most toxic ever mechanic in the game is back.....
This is by far the worst xpac in the game ever.
This should be nerfed to "... Starting Hero power" otherwise it is broken card.
This card's power is tied to how viable Odd Mage is.
This might get really out of hand with quest warrior for example. having two of these is 32 DMG
