It has nothing to do with low synergy or the meta, the card is just not good. Like everyone else, you're overrating this card like crazy.
I have lots of problems to fight it when I don't have a hard removal in hand. When the priest buff its defense, is a pain in the ass.
What you're saying is: this card is great if you have this + Kabal Talonpriest and your opponent has nothing. Isn't that the same for ANY two drop? Reliance on combos in order to not be just a River Crocolisk does not make this card good. Even if you don't have an immediate answer, this card can be ignored because it's NOT a snowball-y card like everyone keeps imagining. Paying 2 mana to summon a 2/2 instead of just playing a 3-drop is the very definition of anti-tempo.
How is this any better than Injured Blademaster + Circle of Healing? What card do you suggest to take out of a deck for a subpar card like this?
Again, In-game practice over theorycraft. I've played Priest since the game came out, and this is by far the most overrated 2-drop Blizzard has released for Priest.
