Way better than it looks. You play it as a 3 mana Mark of the Lotus, then after your stuff doesn't die because you buffed it, you play it again the next turn and seal the game.
The cost feels prohibitive but past turn 4 what were you going to do with the rest of the mana? Overextend into a board clear?
I felt in a creative mood, so I tried to imagine what would happen if a cycle of nine hero cards was added to the Classic set, one for each class. I imagined these cards as if the nine core heroes of Hearthstone underwent a Fire Emblem-style class promotion to a stronger version of their previous class. With that said, here are the cards!
What do you play this in? I presume that even though this takes the damage, the adjacent minions deal the damage.
You play this in a deck full of "kill-me-now-or-else" minions (that preferably have some decent Attack). Imagine this protecting a Gadgetzan Auctioneer or an Oondasta or a Linecracker.

Random.
Enemy.
MINION.
Minion, guys. So unlike Flamewaker it won't waste all its shots on face when you just need it to kill a 1-health minion.

When I look at this card, I see "anti-Freeze Mage tech." I mean, it's like two years too late, but better late than never...?

Enrage had its keyword status revoked a while back.

2 mana for a minion with +2 spell damage is dangerous! I'll be darned if there isn't at least one OTK that this guy makes possible.

Just feels bland to me.

What happens if I have two Shellfighters side by side? They won't shift the same damage back and forth forever, will they?

Fixed Bolf Ramshield.
Man, this expansion, Blizzard's got a thing for taking bad cards and fixing them.
