Balanced card, decent activator for Likkim or other overload synergies and always the potential to play this on 1 and the lackey the turn after. There are only about half of the lackeys where that would be a reasonable play though. If some sort of Aggro Shaman is a thing in the new meta then this card will almost certainly be part of it.
It's pretty good. Shaman 1-drops are shit. This one isn't. Likkim Synergy. Lackey's let you fill your curve with something that is undercosted for the mana.
But do you really want to play a 1 health minion on turn 1?
Probably - it's not like Shaman has better options. I guess you could run Crystalizer and/or Argent Squire...or you're likely running those anyway if you're going aggro.
Murloc tag, likkim activator, thunderhead friendly, hagatha friendly and the overload is more or less compensated by the lackey.

Likkim and Hagatha are really powerful cards. This could be enough to justify this card. 1 mana overload 1 is very good for likkim. 2 minions in 1 card is very good for Hagatha. I would so much play Voltaic Burst if this was a minion. I'll change my vote from bad to playable. I still hold my judgment on the lackeys until we've seen all the synergy, for now this card would be about as good if the lackey was whatever other minion token.
Not terrible i suppose. Can be a decent turn 1 play with a lackey to play turn 2 when you have only 1 mana. There must be a supporting card to make this seem better.
Two expansions in a row we get deathrattle murlocs (Murloc Tatsyfin)! Are we going to see a slower form of murlocs? I hope so, but the murlocs from the classic set probably won't permit that.

That one is 2 overload, very different thing.
Well, also the fact that a lackey is way better than a Flame Elemental -- which, incidentally, is why it has overload.

Dust Devil has 2 overload, not 1.
What a really bad card, unless Lackeys get MASSIVE support to make them good, which I don't think they will.
lol, Ferrafox is playing a different Hearthstone from the rest of us

seems good. has a lot of synergy with shudder, aggro and so forth.
Now it makes sense why they nerfed totem. This would have been an insane start with the coin.
they will avoid having a 2 mana 3/2 with an insane battlecry.
Lackeys don't really need support to be good though. They literally are good by themselves.

Voltaic Burst
I don't know if it proves his point, but this is a legit 1 drop with 1 overload.
Yay, 2 murlocs today! Let's hope we're done.

This overload seems odd.
The overload on curve is meaningless as you can play lackey and its a battle cry for shudder.
I like

Would be good if it was 1/2, but it's 2/1. Potentiality playable in some kind of aggro shaman, but only if there will be some kind of aggro shaman
