Thank you, Komorebi3! Against aggro (and Midrange Pala ;)) this card is GODLIKE, against Control and Combo it sucks.
As I just started ladder for this month, this card does a great job for me, because I play a lot against aggro decks and they will hate it to draw this card. Of course, like Loatheb, you do not always see how much it affects them, but it can have a huge impact.
Against face Hunter it can win you the game, if he draws this card instead of something that deals damage to your face...
These are two different kinds of removal, single target and AoE, so I have to answer "no" to this question.
Btw. with Noxious' deck I meant this deck:
Against aggro you cannot have enough removal and against control this deck is also very strong, as you should be able to answer every threat until the fatigue game begins. ;)
Edit: in my opinion priest control decks always had the problem that you had to decide if your deck is good against aggro OR against control, but with Entomb you can have both. :)
I really love Entomb and I hope that it revives control Priest decks. It raises the winrate against all the other control decks, especially against Warriors, and let's be honest: control Priest wins against most of the aggro decks, including secret Paladin and Zoolock. Excavated Evil makes these matchups even better, doing both: potential board clear and lowering the chance to draw something good. In most of the cases aggro decks do not want to play this card because they would also clear their side of the board and even if they play it, it costs them 5 mana to give you another AoE against them. ;)
Only OTK / Combo decks are still very hard to win (like Druid, freeze Mage etc.) Noxious has created a nice control deck with all kinds of removal.
Entomb solves many problems Priests had, especially against huge deathrattle cards. It is the perfect "removal" for Tirion Fordring, Savannah Highmane etc. Compared to other removals it is so much better. It is like Sheep + ping from the mage for the same mana cost with the extra card into the deck.
I was always a fan of control Priest and this kind of deck needed some love from Blizzard and I guess with both, Entomb and Excavated Evil, Blizzard delivered. ;)
