Card Design Champion@The_Odinson
Sounds like you somewhat missread nurglings third effect as it only increases the cost of the opponents minions. I think that's fair since often people would still rather go with Consecration if they had the option. This can be really powerful at getting you back into the game as it can clear and stop them flooding again but it costing 2 more is a huge deal as if your behind on turn 4 you might be dead before you can even cast this. Plus if you are using it solely to stop your opponents plays (like C'Thun) then you basically gave up your turn to do that as you can't do too much with 4 mana and if you didn't benefit from the aoe you pretty much just postponed things a turn for a card.
EDIT: Nvm slow typing got me lol

Card Design ChampionFinal Draft:
The Worgen Class
Lore:
Centuries ago, the Lords of Winter’s Fall fell victim to the Worgen curse. The exact circumstances are shrowded in mystery, but the lord who brought the curse upon his family was a renowned mage. A small, secluded principality in the Alterac Mountains, Winter’s Fall was completely cut off from the outside world after this calamity, to hide their lord’s embarassment. In time, the lords learned to control their Worgen curse, shapeshifting at will between human and wolf form, but the curse was never lifted, nor could they remain as humans for long, and so their kingdom’s long isolation continued. Recently, the new lord of Winter’s Fall, Howe Hark, has learned that a new kingdom of Worgen, Gilneas. With the threat posed by the Forsaken, he has ended his seclusion and brought his forces to the aid of Gilneas and the alliance. The Young Wolf, as he is known, is known for both his brilliant military strategy and savagery on the field of battle. Mastery of his Worgen form means he is alternately rallying his loyal men into battle and tearing out the hearts of his enemies.
Reminder about how the class works:
The Worgen class centers around shifting between Worgen and Human form. Using the Worgen Form hero power (which you start the game with) gives you +1 Attack that turn and transforms you into a Worgen. This changes your hero power to Human Form, but you can’t use it until the next turn. When Human Form is used, your Hero heals 2 health and transforms into a human. The unique keywords of the class are Worgen and Human, shown in the tooltip.
Cards with these keywords trigger an extra effect if you play them while you're in that form. Human/Worgen keyword cards are inefficient if played in the wrong form and extra efficient if played while in the right form. One of the key mechanics of the class is switching between forms at the right times to efficiently play cards. Also note that other classes are always considered to be in Human form, so they can always use cards they acquire with the Human keyword.
There is a binary theme to the class, based on the two forms you switch between. Howe Hark has cards that focus on the savagery of his Worgen form, dealing damage or buffing attack, similar to Druid shapeshift-themed cards, and also cards that focus on supporting or buffing his minions, representing how he inspires and leads his men while in human form. There are also several secondary themes. The class has cards themed to snowy Alterac homeland of Howe Hark (including Freeze cards). There are also going to be cards that focus on class cards, representing the solidarity of Worgen.
Because of the hero power and binary theme, the class is well-suited for hybrid playstyles, and lots of cards will be versatile. If the hero power is used effectively, Worgen excels at tempo, since Human/Worgen cards are mana efficient when in the right form. This is also a weapon class, and both cards and your hero power buff your attack and restore health, so it is good at controlling the board, as well. Some of these control tools could be repurposed for Aggro, as well, especially in a Pirate deck.
Example Cards
(Explanations in Spoilers)
Heated Brawler - This is essentially an AOE minion. It does it damage normally when it's attacked, or when you go face with it. When you attack an enemy minion, it takes damage from that minion, but it's damage is split evenly among all enemies, including the enemy hero. This makes it difficult to kill individual minions with it, but good against multiple smaller minions. The damage is rounded up so that it's never zero. This effect works best with buffs, like Champion of Azeroth from my Basic set.
Scorched Earth - One of the problems with a big AOE is that you use up your turn clearing the board and your opponent can just fill it up again next turn. This card addresses that problem by making enemy minions cost more after you clear the board. It is expensive for the amount of damage it does to compensate. Your opponent can bypass the effect by playing just spells or weapons, but that plays into the goal of not having them fill up the board.
Grizzled Weaponmaster - This would be a very powerful effect with high durability weapons like Doomhammer, but Worgen has only a 3/2, a 6/2, and either a 4/2 or a 6/1. you can get more value out of your weapon this way. A 4/2 becomes a 3/4 (when played in Worgen form), dealing 50% more damage overall. This is also meant to be a tech card against Aggro, where a 2/4 might be more useful than a 4/2. Overall, it's a quirky effect you could develop a combo around that plays into the Worgen theme of attacking a lot with your hero.
Winter Hunt - This is a card that supports your minions, another theme of the Worgen class, by Freezing the enemy. The Alpine Wolves you summon are Immune to Freeze, however, which gives them free reign to attack whatever they want next turn. This combos well with Worgen buff cards from the Classic set like Inspiration and Rally, and it also works well with Flank from TGT.
Blackrock Mountain:
The Grand Tournament:
Justicar Trueheart Hero Power:
Expert Set:
Basic Set:
Hunted - This is one removal option for Worgen, similar to Hunter's Mark. You play this and follow it up with another source of damage that normally would not have killed your target. The effect is permanent, so all damage from then on is doubled for that minion.
Alpine Wolf - With Champion of Alterac, it’s important that there’s a 1-Cost class minion as a potential target. This is basically just the same as Enchanted Raven. “Cannot be Frozen” is not worth anything, because it’s almost never relevant. There will be at least one source of Freezing allies in later sets, so it will have some relevance.
Grievous Wounds - This is the Basic direct removal card. It’s a cheap card, but with a very restrictive limitation. While Execute can be paired with any source of damage, and it is often paired with spell damage or minion AOEs, you can only play this after attacking a minion. Execute was too strong at 1, but this would not be. It does combine well with the Worgen Form hero power.
Champion of Alterac - This card is reflective of the Worgen class’ support side, which represents Howe Hark’s human side. It’s a mana-efficient buff spell, but you can only cast it on a class minion. That’s more restrictive than you might initially think. The only way to play it on turn 2 is if you played Alpine Wolf on Turn 1. I don’t plan on making any other 1-Cost minions.
Gilnean Reinforcements - This is Worgen’s card draw. A number of classes have variations of this spell (Arcane Intellect, Ancestral Knowledge, Burgle, Thoughtsteal). This take reflects Worgen’s focus on class cards. This makes the spell both more restrictive, since it can only draw certain cards in your deck, and is useless if you have too few class cards, and more reliable, since you have a better idea of what it will give you.
Icy Shortsword - Worgen is a weapon class. Howe Hark is not just all about tearing things up with his claws. I mean, he doesn’t have any when he’s in human form, anyway. Weapons will not be as strong a focus as in Warrior. It will be more like in Shaman. You can see that here, as this is not as strong a weapon as Fiery War Axe, but it has more utility in being able to Freeze, which is a secondary theme of the class, based on Howe Hark’s Alterac homeland.
Krennan’s Potion - Worgen focuses on using their Hero Power to switch forms regularly, so they need some support for that. This card can both help you recover health, which you may lose from attacking minions, and switch forms more easily, either on this turn or the next.
Leap - This represents leaping into the midst of the enemy's ranks to attack, so they are forced to attack you. Direct damage spells are going to be very limited for Worgen, since the class focuses more on dealing damage with weapons and buffing your hero’s attack. This card can be used both for removal, and to protect your minions. When you play this, your hero has Taunt during your opponent’s next turn, which means your minions can’t be attacked. It’s like half of a Conceal, because your minions can still be targeted by spells and Battlecries.
Winter Has Come - This is Worgen’s AOE option. It’s pretty efficient for its cost, because it will damage any neutral minions you have in play. This also reflects Worgen’s focus on class minions. It represents the hardiness of your Worgen and Alterac followers.
Worgen Assassin - With the lack of direct damage spells, Worgen needs a card like this. Similar to Fire Elemental, you can play this later in the game as a removal option, although it lacks Fire Elemental’s ability as a finisher. There was a lot of debate about this card, and I think we reached the consensus that, in its current form, it is as powerful as Fire Elemental. It’s a strong card, but Worgen needs this as a substitute for damage spells.

About the interaction of Slow Motion and Peer into the Future, I'm not sure if it would work as you say, but it could be tested by having a spell be countered by Counterspell while the caster has a Flamewaker or other card like that in play. I atleast assume that it would work the same way.
