I'm at a loss to understand how you can find either of these spells problematic, unless you mean problematic for your preferred decks. Hysteria can, indeed, be a very powerful remove under certain conditions. But speaking as someone who uses it pretty extensively in a Wild Control Warlock deck, it's not always a great play. Against, for example a big threat and two little ones, it doesn't help you all that much. So you end up doing some minor damage to the big and kill the two smalls? So what? The primary threat has not gone away. And if you have a board of your own, it's often very hard to justify playing it. In addition, against a single big threat it's entirely unplayable. If you're playing against either warlock or priest and not considering the possibility of it being used against you, you only have yourself to blame. It's like people who used to whine about Defile. If you blunder into a situation where it'll clear your board, that's on you.
And if you're losing multiple minions to Combustion, it's your own damn fault. It's also a very easy card to play around.
Without reliable, reasonably low cost clears, the game would be an aggro shitshow.
