I liked your idea about this be a paladin card, god knows that they need all the help that they can get (not a totem for shore)
Paladins do need a boost, but thats not the only reason I suggest it. Paladins are the other class that should do mid-range well, but for whatever reason it hasn't worked out for them.
Shaman's excel at mid-range because of overload, the infamous 4 mana 7/7 Flamewreathed Faceless is a prime example. Being able to toss that out on turn 4 gives a huge tempo swing. If your opponent doesn't quickly counter it, they'll be dead.
Theoretically, Paladin Secrets could offer a similar swing, but 1 mana secrets tend to be very weak. What if your Infiltrator totem was a secret? "At the start of your next turn put *renamed Infiltrator totem* on your enemies board.
Secrets and Overload are actually quite similar, just reversed. Overload gives you a boost at the cost of mana later on. Secrets take mana pre-emptively and give you a boost later on. The effect is similar in that on the turn where they occur, you're essentially playing with more mana than usual.
Now I have no clue how to reflavor/rebalance your card as a paladin card. So I'll leave that bit up to you.
