I think this card is way too slow in aggressive meta and way too easy to remove in control meta.
In an agressive meta this can outright win you the game due to the huge taunts to just block your opponents minions. In a slower meta the fact that it gives +6 health makes any small minion a decent threat, and the deathrattle is pretty good as well. If you compare this to power word: tentacles, this card is incredibly better
Doubtful, as this card has a horrible body compared to the other 1 drops Priest has. Not to mention that drawing a card is always going to be more powerful than a random card from your opponents deck.
Actually, no, drawing a card isnt always better than getting a random card, since in heavy control matches, stealing cards is much better due to fatigue
Mad scientist was way too good for what it did. Not only did it draw a specific card, it would also play it for free. I feel like this is what mad scientist should have been in the first place.
Also, there is the niche situation where you have a secret played, and the only other secret you have in your deck is another copy of the one already played, in that situation this card would be better
I'd say that this is better than Second-Rate Bruiser in the more control-heavy decks. The fact that its not a conditional 3 cost can be a big difference, and playing one doesnt mean that you can't play the other, so who knows if perhaps they will both see play
