Average stats for a 3 drop, Elemental tag plus a battlecry similar to Youthful Brewmaster. Shaman has plenty of good battlecries ready to be reused so this card will definitely see play. You might bounce your Electra Stormsurge to double another spell and also buff her considerably. And it can be a replacement for Zola the Gorgon even though you lose some tempo.
This is a really nice card. Elemental brewmaster with an upside. I like it very much and I can only hope it sees play on a competitve level.

Why would they print shudder support when they can't even be arsed to fix the card animation issue? My problems with the deck compeltely go away if they just fix that.
people are talking about shudderwock, but i just cant see why. U cant do anything with this card that u cant already do with the brewmasters. And chain gang will rotate in april so the combo will be very very dead.
Now Shudderwock's winrate against control decks can go from 99% to 100%.
the deck could run ancient brewmaster if it wanted thatveffect but they don't run it
Oh shoot, I didn't see it returns the minion back to hand. Somebody mentioned Zola and I thought this is a better Zola. Need to stop commenting in half sleep. :P
I see this fitting in an elemental Shaman deck. Fire Fly is a great target for it, you don't lose a lot of tempo by returning a 1/2 (or 1/1 if it traded with something) and a 1 mana 3/4 elemental that generates another 1 mana elemental makes chaining them easier. Other low-cost Elementals like Menacing Nimbus & Glacial Shard also come to mind so you can play this on curve a lot.
Elemental Shaman was not good enough in Boomsday though.
This card is good va control cause you sometimes have a lot of minions and you don't want to over commit and this helps you to getmore uses of some battlecries or weakened minions, it also works very well with chaingang, But playong this card is more often than not a tempo loss, also playing again the card is quite hard as well.
don't think it will see any play though, it could be good in an elemental battlecry heavy deck.. so who knows... 5 mana 2 cards get 2 flame elementals and 3/3 + 3/4 is nice I guess but other classes do nore signicant stuff with 5 mana
I don't think this will be run in shudder since giving your Shudderwock +2/+2 is overkill in the first place and stuff like the 4 mana brew master didn't get played anyways so there isn't even a high demand for more consistenty.
The reason brewmasters are not played right now is, because you have Grumble and brewmasters just fuk up the combo. What do you want a 1 mana Shudder or a 9 mana Shudder?
So handbuff was originaly a Paladin/Warrior/Hunter thing then they printed a few handbuff synergy cards for Warlock but mid expansion creation they decided that Shaman should have some handbuff to cause why not?
I'm not saying that this is per say better than Zola, but I see this going into some decks (it would be WAY better as a 2/2 of 2-mana though, because even shaman would love this card).

Edit: I somehow thought this is a better Zola, which it is obviously not.
Remember when bouncing minions was Rogue class identity? This is the next step after Grumble, Worldshaker in ruining that.

Chain gang, Leeroy, Keleseth, Kalimos, this thing is stupid good

This is an incredible card.
This seems like one of the stronger cards revealed so far.

Well done Blizzard!
They have no idea what to do with Shaman...
Prolly not as scary as everyone is making it out to be but still very strong in elemental decks
Zola is situationally better and so this card definitely has space to work:
