Midrange and control decks could make good use of this card, and it's still playable late game if you happen to top deck it. The ideal use is mid to late game after a board or large minion removal for the tempo swing. It's a balanced card.
This card, along with Cult Apothecary, are excellent tech cards against aggro/token decks and will ensure a healthy meta moving forward. I'm very happy.
I don't see this being played in any deck type other than Handlock, and even then I the 4 health makes it very dicey. Replacing one of your Twilight Drake with this does counter Earth Shock, though.
I just realized the synergy with Bolster. A 7/11 that can't be targeted could present a huge problem for your opponent, plus there are tons of other taunt minions being released this expansion. Sign me up for Taunt Warrior!
My previous analysis of this card was premature. With Shatter, this card will be insane. Add in Ice Lance, and you're looking at an entirely new Freeze Mage! I'm psyched!
Or you could start to use Dark Iron Skulker and Fan of Knives more effectively? Plus there are more cards to be released. If any class has a reason to whine right now, it's Druid.
The point is this card was an auto-include in virtually every druid deck for a reason. The combo wasn't the only thing broken in Druid. Why deny reality?

Not enough of an impact to see much constructed play, but it is GODLY in Arena.

Horrible stats for the cost, but understandable given the damage potential that extra spell damage can give you. Not worth it IMO.

Puts it in line with Stand Against Darkness while removing the charge aspect that made the card OP to begin with. Nice work!

I actually agree that they nerfed this card too hard since that really limits the board clear potential, but there's always Vanish...

It should work exactly the way Feign Death does, only for a single minion.
