Only Reno-Lock could benefit from his effect but so far the only spell worth it is Siphon Soul, maybe Shadow Bolt... Actually many people think he might shine in future expansions/adventures IF new good expensive warlock spells are released.
I've played a fair bit of Midrange Hunter in standard so far, and here are my thoughts.
C'Thun Warrior can counter it pretty well. They have tons of removal, decent bodies to contest the board, and Ancient Shieldbearer can easily take the game away from the Hunter. Patron/Tempo Warrior can also be pretty infuriating to play against, but not a super bad matchup.
Any form of Shaman is often a bad matchup too. They are really good at taking the early board with Tunnel Trogg and friends, and once you lose the board against Shaman, you lose the whole game since you don't have a good board clear in Hunter. Against Aggro, even if you manage to take back the board, you are probably within burn range.
It could just make totems with double the effect: a 2/2, healing for 2, Spell Damage + 2, or 0/4 Taunt. They would also have the same names so you can't get them in addition to the weaker versions.

Just played a game of tavern brawl where I had Dr. Boom, Cairne Bloodhoof, Sylvanas Windrunner, and Ragnaros the Firelord. One of the most lopsided games I've ever played.

Why do people keep saying Mind Blast in Hunter? Face Hunter has not been a thing for MONTHS

Priest or Druid. Both lost very important cards and got nothing good enough to replace them.

I think I've seen this played twice and both times he gave Poisoned Blade.

After playing against it since release, it's surprisingly underwhelming.

It isn't a spell and it doesn't target, so no.

Might be pretty OP but so is 4 armor a turn.

Innervate + Yogg is hilarious. It's not particularly good but playing Yogg like 6 times in one game is awesome
