This is so much worse than voidcaller it's hilarious. If it was at the end of your turn it would be good but being at the start of your turn, this will always just take an ooze and you will have wasted 5 mana doing nothing.
The only real downside is if this gets silenced. It doesn't matter too much that you'll have so many voidwalkers die. Even if guldan brings back 6 voidwalkers and one of these your board will stop anything in its tracks for a few turns or absorb aoe while still leaving behind a body or some voidwalkers. It shifts the guldan battlecry to more of a stall thing which it's kind of most effective at right now anyway. You can still outvalue almost anybody if you run the lich King, medivh, and/or Elise. This is only turning warlock into more of a fatigue deck. I think every control warlock will run at least one.
On a side note, this makes kazakus warlock a little more playable. Being able to pull a big taunt and a doomguard is very powerful. But that's just meme value.

Why doesn't this deck run Ironwood Golem? It seems like a perfect fit to help defend against aggro.
Edit: Just realized there's no grizzled guardian. Never mind.

4 epics and no legendaries. 3 golden rares.

I hope when blizzard nerfs all the annoying cards in the set they actually buff this for a change
