Idk if this is just a value card for faster Dragon decks, I think everyone is getting hung up on the Murloc tag. Granted, once you put it in that light, it pales in comparison to what Dragons already have to work with.

"The quickest way to 'think outside the box' is to realize the truth: the only real box is the one you create by limiting your thoughts."
So, we have 9 1 mana murlocs, 6 2 mana murlocs, 1 2.5 mana murloc, 2 3 mana murlocs 1 3.5 mana murloc
So(If I didn't screw with math somewhere) it is roughly 1.6 mana average in decks with no other murlocs but becomes noticeably better in murloc heavy decks.
Strictly speaking, 2.5+1.5+1.5 is better than the cost of 5 It. looks very draftable in arena* if you have a dragon heavy deck (and you will have those in the next arena season...) but It is too fair for a constructed deck without a ton of murloc synergies and I fail to see such deck. And generic dragon decks have better dragon payoffs
Unlike Tasty Flyfish (which I think is playable), I'm not really understanding this one really. Maybe there's some sort of shaman hybrid deck that runs Underbelly Angler or something.
But I think this card is probably too dependent on being able to follow it up with a warleader or a seer for it to be particularly good outside of dedicated murloc decks. And I can't think of any dragons that those decks would want to run.
The card is pretty expensive, so maybe you're putting a murloc shell in as your early game, and it's a midrange deck with some dragon cards? I'm not sure.

Nice menagerie support, a couple years too late though. I'm not playing this in my standard dragon decks
One mana too expensive to consider sabotaging your murloc deck with dragons.
Looks like that evil gremlin
Trash, what else to say. MAYBE can see niche play with Nightmare Amalgam, but that is a REALLY BIG MAYBE.
Looks bad. Playing a murloc deck with dragons in it seems really counterintuitive.

I love this card simply because it's another solid Murloc besides just Finley in my Curator Warrior deck.
What even is this?
These are not two great tastes that taste great together. This is one great taste with some kind of mold growing on it.

I think old murkeye rotated so this will not otk
Will see lot of play in murloc decks in combination with nightmare amalgam!!!!*
*as a random hit with Underbelly Angler
neat idea but the average murloc is like worth 1.5 or less
If there were other Amalgam (collectible) minions, then maybe this would be ok. But it is just bad right now!!
Feels like this card was designed for Battlegrounds TBH
Hm... Let's look at all murlocs that will be in standard
This table misses Amalgam, which is 3 mana murloc
So, we have 9 1 mana murlocs, 6 2 mana murlocs, 1 2.5 mana murloc, 2 3 mana murlocs 1 3.5 mana murloc
So(If I didn't screw with math somewhere) it is roughly 1.6 mana average in decks with no other murlocs but becomes noticeably better in murloc heavy decks.

* it depends on what murloc pool will be there.
Seems overpriced and about 2-3 years too late. Might be worth more next rotation.
Maybe wild gives this a home for now?

murlocs dont have anything to do with dragons nowadays
seems just like a leftover from the karazhan era they just shit out in this set
In before - We are bringing Karazhan back to standard till the rotation, it is available for purchase!
Not even impossible, bringing back old expansions will give them $$$.
