In tandem with Boom Wrench, this will put out a stupid amount of damage very quickly, either clearing boards or whittling down the opposing hero's life to finish off with Odyn or other endgame finishers.
There's a lot of good applications for having any armor potentially costing 0, such as being able to play Stoneskin Armorer for the draw on curve, amping up Sanitize when you're under pressure from an aggro deck.
Much better than Taelan Fordring, even though the tutoring isn't quite as specific as his, being tied to a battlecry rather than a deathrattle is a significant speed up for combos.
Like Cactus Construct before it, this will see play in a wide assortment of decks, from aggressive wanting consistent curves to control that want some early game tempo to soften up the aggression without taking too much time away from their endgame.
Not entirely sure if the she'll be worthwhile, but getting a board that's immediately buffed by a 0-mana Cultivation is pretty nutty. Does Druid have enough Trent tokens to do so... unlikely.
Suddenly Gaslight Gatekeeper appears to be a really great enabler for this, but I still worry about the timing of this card coming down. The slower the giant, the easier it is to be answered back with removal and AoE.
The Mini is great, the base not so much. Not transforming/remembering the Corrupted activation is also a big ding against this, as it significantly limits Rogue's ability to bounce and replay this over and over.
While there's a good number of 3 or 4-cost 4 health minions in the game, Honorable Kill has proven to be a bit of an awkward activator. Sure the Rush helps, but this is just another filler
Much more effective soft "remove a minion" than Frog, and much better than Dragon because of the cost. I can see this making appearances here and there in slower decks.
There's potential with Hunter's Master Call and Fetch! of tutoring this over and over, but that seems much slower than Pogo Hoppers and Astral Automatons
AH AH AH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! *five minutes of breathing into a paper bag to calm down from a Boomsday PTSD nightmare*
Okay, so knee-jerk aside, Deathrattle might be the thing that absolutely kills this card, but then again it's on a 2/1, it's going to get triggered. The question is getting the next turn is too slow for Inventor to see standard play again.
I'm interested in this, as cheating out certain High cost High Value cards a turn or two early has proven to be game winning before. It's a rather small discount, and there is a slight challenge in building enough spells to get discounted but not too many that the targets you want are missed completely.

Probably more worthwhile as a 2 mana Draw 2 specific minions like Testing Dummy than a 2 mana Draw 2 in a Taunt Warrior deck.
Oh hey, it's an Unstable Ghoul with Lifesteal!
...
That's it, it's 2024, I don't think that's particularly worth.
Sleeper Harbringer Celestia. Someone is gonna get this off of a random 3-drop roll and make someone hesitant to drop a Titan on curve tho
Potential with Paladin and DK, the former just for the sheer number of bodies to buff, the latter for the sheer number of bodies... as corpses.
Cute little taunt, but 3 damage removal is quite common, not sure if it'll be that effective even against aggro decks.

Absolute staple in Dragon decks, a 1 mana 3/2 that buffs a dragon in the future is nuts.

Cute card, don't think the Origami cycle of cards are actually that powerful enough to see much play.
Freddy, I don't wanna play your game, I don't wanna know.
