The worst case, it's just a 2/3 and you burn a random card. But this won't make you lose the game.
On the other hand, if you burn a specific, needed combo card, maybe an Auctioneer when your opponent was waiting for this top deck with a full hand of spells, then you just win the game. Even if the chance for this to happen is like 3%, it's still possible.
but since this card is warlock only, we won't see it much anyway i guess
This is incorrect and I don't know why people keep saying it. How is it not a downside if you burn a random card? Every time your opponent burns a random card they go one stop closer to that "needed combo card", such as an Auctioneer.
You could burn their Auctioneer or you could push them one turn closer to it, in fact the latter is more likely.
Even if, it doesn't make you lose the game just because your opponent drew the card he needed 1 turn earlier. He still needs to play the card. But losing a key card entirely can make you lose the game. The upside of this card is greater than it's downside. With a neutral tag, this card would have caused a lot of tears.

OP and annoying card. 2 Mana 2/3 is already ok, but than you get twice the chance, two burn an important card of your opponent. Wow. Maybe even combined with Dirty Rat, it gets more annoying.
Against aggro decks: Aggro decks won't care much about a loss of a card, yes, but even in this case, the minion itself will deal with most 1 or 2 drops.
Probably, because they don't want this to be the meta (right now) and once jade idol is out, they will push otherways to keep control in control. Most people dont enjoy 20+ minute games.

Whenever people started combining cards to make priest strong, it wasn't competetive in the end.
