This card is bad. I'm fucking tired. Why mage cards dont have taunt? Its stupid. This is a slow value card with no means to protect your face. Same with pyros. If at least the 6/6 and/or 10/10 had taunt it would be so much better.
This card also should have taunt idealy. Every fucking mage card is bold useless piece of stats on board. They should start giving AT LEAST SOME taunt minions for mage, otherwise it's silly.
Pick a bad card if you want to make a point first of all. Second of all, realize that class identity gives mage overpowered spells and weaker minions.
This is not a bad minion by its own. It is a bad card for ladder. It has good value, but you can't protect your face properly.
The big issue for mage is holding early aggression. Mage doesn't have early game weapons to win tempo, mage doesn't have efficient enough removal like rogue, for example. Toki is good if opponent doesn't threat your life total. Like aggro paladin might do.
Volcanic Potion was at least some way to deal with early board, but 2 damage is still not good enough to clear 3 hp murlocs of aggro paly, or totems/wolves of shaman.
And here we can see that mage spells are not overpowered, as you stated. Lightning Storm deals with opponent early board development much better, and it's not even hurt your own minions as Volcanic Potion does. Arcane missiles for 7 mana is trash, Glacial Mysteries is trash, a lot of bad spells actualy. Dragon Breath is not even good enough, it restricts your own board development and has certain requirements for deck building.
Mage not only has bad spells in terms of efficiency, it doesn't have even weapons (which is a huge disadventage compared to shaman)
The secrets are bad compared to hunter secrets. The only way they can be played is by cheating their cost with additional supportive cards.
Aoe is bad actualy nowadays. Flamestrike is good enough mostly in arena, and because its from basic set. Both Warlock and Priest has better board clear tools.
Single target removal is bad compared to rogue, and even early removal is much better in rogue. Overall, rogue spells are better than mage spells, just because they are faster and cheaper, more efficient.
The class minions doesn't have taunt like EVER (?!) The only strong aspect of mage left is grind and value. But there is no class taunt minions whatsoever to support this idea. I think it is a big design mistake.
The class is in a very bad spot and nobody wants to notice that.

I think echo cards in mage have pretty good synergy with Leyline Manipulator. My bold prediction is that echo card for mage could be new class elemental with <4 mana cost. Or not. :D
Anyone else excited of possibility to discount manacost of echo cards with Leyline Manipulator ? I think it might work pretty good.
Nothing special. If this was 3/2 with battlecry summon 2-cost minion it won't surprise anyone too much, considering overal power level of playable cards in game.

Kirin Tor Mage + Mana Bind -> Vex Crow + whatever spell from mana bind for 0 mana. Kinda cool, but..

"if that kills" condition seems like an overkill for such effect being on epic card
