The fact that it's not made into a keyword probably means it's exclusive to this Reno hero card. Most of the cases it's just another way to say "cast Plague of Death." Not too impressed.
They can still make it a keyword later, if they introduce more cards with the same mechanic. Also, it's not same as Plague of Death, because PoD silences and destroys all minions so they can still be resurrected later, while The Amazing Reno should make minions disappear as if they were never played. I do agree it's nothing special, just another fancy board clear, especially for 10 mana it's not impressive at all, so I'm more interested in what will Reno hero power be.
I'm not even sure why Shaman needs a card like Mogu Fleshshaper in the first place. But for the sake of argument, let's assume it does really need a rush minion at turns 3-5, when Mogu is usually played. Why not simply make Mogu 3 mana 3/4 with rush without any discounts? It's overstated minion for it's cost plus it has rush which makes it a really good card,. It would still be good tempo play to use it in combination with Mutate without being (potentially) broken as it is now.
Faceless Corruptor - Remove rush. It will still be a strong card but it won't be used in almost every deck as it is now.
Galakrond, the Tempest - Remove rush from all the summoned elementals. Invoke summons 2/2 elemental instead of 2/1. It will still be strong without being broken as it is now.
I think these two are necessary, for the rest i don't know.
Shudderwock is definitely a card that will have to be addressed at some point, so maybe now is a good time to deal with it as well. Decrease the number of battlecries it repeats. For example, 5 random or 5 first battlecries.
You need to complete one to get another. Good thing is even if you skipped Hearthstone for a few days, you don't lose any and can still complete all of them.
You could potentially have two active at the same time if you don't complete all legendary quests from this event until the next event that will have legendary quests as well.
I've opened this golden so I decided to try it out. In Treant token decks it's useless. It hits the board too late and buff is too small to change anything.
Maybe if it would give Treants "rush" as well, it could be more useful, not just in token decks but in some control decks as well.
Imagine if Blizzard offered a refund to Starcraft II players each time a patch changed some units stats? Or any other company for any other game. It would be silly, to say the least.
I think that the entire concept of "dust refund" for a card changes is wrong and the main reason why card changes take so long to happen and why game becomes stale quickly after every expansion and stays like that for a long time.
Blizzard, remove dust refunds completely and give us updates every week. Buff weak cards, nerf overpowered ones and make Hearthstone better for everyone.

You mean strong battlecry like: 7 mana gain 5 armor, equip 5/2 weapon and summon two 8/8 elementals with rush?
Sure hope they never do that ;)

It's a radical and silly idea, I know, but how about you try the game yourself and see whether or not is ok for your child to play it?
