I like him, it allows me to drop a Ooze early with out stressing. Some times you wanna keep that tempo and with how many assassins blade rogues i have seen recently i like him splashed into my shaman deck.
He is a meta card, if your seeing tons of rogues/warriors/pallys he is not bad, but i dont think he is a "craft this legend" he is just a decent card if you pull him. I will squeal with joy on the day i get to destroy a doom hammer and draw from 1 to 6-8.
In current meta he is a great card and gives a bigger body than ooze that can't be burned down as easy. He's out of range of Hammer of Wrath, Frostbolt, an uncomboed eviscerate, Lightning bolt/storm, SW:P, etc.
People crap themselves about how good Azure Drake's value is. Harrison Jones is very similar value to me. He's also big enough to survive breaking Shieldmasta, which is by far the most common single taunt I see. I have found that he will sometimes fish out a hard removal too because of his 5 damage And not low enough for cheap removal, which is great value in my eyes since they won't have it for my finishers.
in this meta I run him in every deck that I would normally have an ooze.

These are all good points and I'm very interested to try him (if only I didn't use my dust on Alexstrasza).
Even when weapon dominant classes are flooding the meta it still doesn't get much play.
Is this the card being too weak or people just missing an opportunity?
If you destroy a weapon and draw 1 card and drop a 5/4 for 5 mana I think that's great value.
But is it truly legendary status?

Don't forget Jaraxxus and his 3/8 weapon!
