Why don't these morons simply create a list of all past and present keywords and use them, instead of making this retarded text?!
People should really consider asking this on their next AMA or whatever, since it's becoming ridiculous.
@Blizzard: if you think treating your customers like morons (i.e. thinking we'd be too confused if you used a keyword like "Echo", because you are too lazy to make a compendium), then i'm not gonna buy this shit. Go F yourselves with your target audience. You are the morons, not us.
So Discover when it first arrived was LOE specific mechanic but ended up being standard keyword remained same across different expansions but this card that clearly has Echo keyword cant be named Echo because reasons ?
Of course you can heal for up to 20 but that means you have no mana left to do anything else, which means if you are losing it is not going to save you.
Conclusion
Healing rain is much better and is common rarity
Healing rain only saw play in shudderwock shaman. That other spell is dustable, too expensive to see play.
Very good card. However i can't yet understand why they are not using Echo. It was introduced in Witchwood as a keyword but is there any problem not to use it any further? It seems a bit stupid.

Believe in potential; the multiverse blesses some beings with extraordinary traits, with the potential to do—to be—great things.
It’s alright. You’ll probably play one copy in any Shaman slow enough to want some hard healing although I think it probably won’t see that much play because the best Shaman decks will probably be a more frontloaded, midrangey Shaman with Murlocs.
So this has Echo?! So they realy went this far just making up new text because they didnt want a 1x keyword in the set? wtf?
Blizzard developers really have some weird thought process going on inside their head most of the time. Or they are just plain idiots thinking they are acting "cool" making keywords this way.
They seriously need to consider the community reaction and realise it's a shit idea. It is supposed to be less confusing for new players (don't ask how) but it is more confusing for EVERYONE. And the "flavor" argument is just Blizzard Bullshit. There isn't a single human being on earth who cares about Echo being tied up to Witchwood and Recruit being tied up to K&C.

Yeah, but this has synergy with cards that react to playing spells, and cards that react to healing. You heal 5 times, and play 5 spells.
I eman we got the unindentified mechanic and the omega mechanic I am annoyed as well this doesn't say echo..

I'll be waiting for the games that Priest steals this and does 20 face damage.
Why not just:
Echo
Restore 4 Health
Are we not talking about that effect anymore?
But the card is fine, shaman might need healing and this heals 20 for 10 mana

Put some Murloc Tastyfin and some murlocs to cook and you'll have a really delicious meal!
Maybe it's worded like this so it counts as one spell so kragwa can't return lots of copies?
forbidden healing saw play, and shaman needs healing more than paladin does. this card's main use will be from hagatha though :)
Formerly Sneeds. Twitch merge locked me out of my old account :(
That doesn't make sense. Unstable Evolution is worded the same way and Krag'wa returns all copies of UE.
New healing rain, more expensive but with more control over where the health goes. Thank god this came out so I can still play Hagatha shaman decks
Oh, Lethal - where did you go? I miss you all the time.

Well it seems like some keywords are for flavour, because this is clearly an echo effect. Very good card regardless.

Confusing for sure. I get that Echo was from Witchwood but why not keep it? If Magic would do this, it would be a royal sh...show.
To be great is to be misunderstood.

I agree with others that it should have had Echo.
would love to know the reason they decided to not use the word echo.
