So, basically you pay an extra 2 mana to play any minion that they have on the board? Extra choice on "what minion do I need" could be good. Say choosing a Sludge Belcher or a Healbot... or choosing Dr. Boom or Thaurissan.
The most common play would most likely be turn ten Aviana-> Cenarius/ Ancient of War. Innervate gets you even more minions. Essentially you can dump most of your hand on the board turn ten (5 cards -> 4 minions, 1 Innervate). Turn 8 with Innervate would also be good!
The main benefit I think is that this can actually be played late game, unlike zombie chow. If you drop Injured Kvaldir and do any kind of healing (Holy Nova, Circle of Healing) we get a real minion with no downside. And, in Warrior you can combo this with Battle Rage and Rampage. So, draw an extra card for one plus get a minion on board? Sounds decent to me.

Did you read the card? Have you ever played a yeti (4 mana 4/5)?

It summons a token 4/6 which looks like its twin. Brode confirmed.

Its a great target for Shadow Madness Recombobulator combo! You don't have to kill the minion.

Combo with Injured Blademaster, Ysera, Deathlord? Seems like a great play is Circle of Healing first...

Have you seen the Joust mechanic? Seems like now there is a good chance that the meta will slow down a bit. Yay for Priest!

Nice! I can't wait to try out beast druid!

This could really destroy the opponent's board (AOE) if you run spare parts or cheap spells (Maybe Mech Priest?).

Definitely will want to try these out with Priest!
