No it’s not, the effect is immediate rather delayed a turn. Grant it you don’t get multiple buffs but to say it’s worse in all cases isn’t even close to true.
Reminds me of Nightblade for some reason. I don't really like it.
You can play the pirate with charge, give 6 damage in the same turn and opponent have to deal with the 6/1, that is not free to opponent, something he will lose, a card, a minion in trade, life if attack or tempo using hero power, the Nightblade give 3 damage and is the end of history.
This card is not great but faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better than Nightblade.
It could have been if Cobald Scaleebane wasn't a card. This is trash compared to it.
Scalebane gonna rotate before Baku, brah.
But even then, still might not cut it. Saving 1-drops for combo means you've got fewer things on board. The immediacy is nice, but not sure it's enough.

No, it is not, the bonus is 4 instead of 3 and in the same turn, this is best than Cobald in odd rogue.
I not sure if better than Fungal, maybe, just for the cases you play with an empty board, but in this cases you lose with any of this 3 cards.
Play after a charger and you get either 6 mana 6 damage burst or 10 mana 10 damage burst. It'll definitely see play.
This will be insane in Arena... Especially since it is a common.
