yes, it is important because it basically makes your deck more consistently draw into your threats (a 29 card deck is amazing) a it is basically a unconditional +1/+1 to your 1-drop. so yes patches is really that important

no taunt

Honestly let's actually think about this card for a second, yes it destroys secrets paladin and freeze mage, HOWEVER do you honestly think running two is a good idea, you would run 1copy MAYBE and even then it will only hit on 3 of the 9 classes so there is a 2/3 chance that you will be stuck with a bad 4 drop and in my opinion turns 4 and 5 are the most crucial turns in the game as the biggest jump in stat lines is typically for 3-4 or 5-6 so developing a strong minion is very important, piloted shredder is a key example of this over all I don't believe that is card is as good as everyone is expecting I'm sorry but this card is mediocre at best and it would only be worth running 1 and most definitely not 2. In the end it is just a stronger kezan mystic and you don't even get the secret, sorry but again I think this card in general is a bust feelsbadman
