I dont think this card will see play. It looks very slow and easy to remove...
I've found it to be surprisingly sticky. But, it is a little costly. Had it been more along the lines of Flamewaker and been a 2/4 for 3, I think it would be incredible. That extra mana makes it tough to combo stuff.
2/6 without an immediate effect is useless. If it were 3/5, it would at least be able to trade with shredder. The problem with 4 drops right now is that they have to contest shredder.
I like this card a lot. Someone could definitely make a battlecry control shaman of sorts with Brann Bronzebeard and have it trigger a lot of times. Stats are kind of on the ech side though, but that is my only complaint. Also could be good in arena too due to there being so many minions with battlecry (earthen ring farseer, fire elemental, north sea kraken, shattered sun cleric, etc.)
It wasn't inspired by this card though actually, I saw the legendaries and scanned through the classes for the best battlecry minions and saw things like mistcaller tuskar and argus.
You should definitely fit in Nerubian Egg in this deck.
agreed of some of the opinions here, its bit slow and also the RNG have the tendencies to hit face. the advantage of this card besides the health that it had an "effect" so it force your opponents to trade and its good trade too 2 for 1 if you are dealing with an aggro deck.
Now that I think about it, I feel like the battlecry shaman is just a worse tempo mage.
Something to note is that you will still do 2 damage if the condition for battlecries is not met. For example, playing a corruptor without a dragon will still do 2 damage.

Trying a Dragon/Battlecry deck with Zeus thrown in for good measure. Might not win, but will be fun when it does.
Let me change your mind.

Well, shaman's cards must be worse than other classes'. Recent example: Arcane Intellect & Ancestral Knowledge. Basic example: Fireball & Lava Burst.
I forgot one more thing. Why would you play this crap over Knife Juggler if you value the effect?
Shaman really needed an Oasis Snapjaw
If Dragon Shaman ever becomes a thing this might be pretty good. Having this proc after a Blackwing Corruptor is pretty sweet.
Too bad the deck doesn't have a proper 2-drop.
This card is actually pretty decent but that 2/6 for 4 mana is really awkward.
