Unfortunately for this card, even a 5 mana 8/8 windfury that require you to have less than half your health gone may not reach far enough to swing the board for you. In most cases whenever you drop this low, you're either going to die the following turn, or you need to clear board to even stand a chance at survival, and this card having no taunt will not prevent your face from getting dead.
As a tempo option, its only fitting place is in a Vanndar deck, or zoolock, where half health is not impossible by turn 5.
If only this had lifesteal instead of windfury. Oh well, we can all dream cant we?
Paladin and Priest can easily give this lifesteal if below 15 health, and swing back to near full (the new paladin card and the priest apotheosis card.
There's a lot of disruption/removal so spending all your mana on 1 huge minion seems like it still won't be very good in this meta.
There's a lot of new control cards so it looks like aggro may not be as good this expansion
This makes me think the meta will be Control, Tempo, Midrange, and just slowly bursting down your opponent while you stall them with control cards.
Control may still be too slow though.
Shadow Priest, Burst down freeze Shaman decks, Quest mage, tempo rogues. Any decks that can kill by turn 6 I think will be meta if not you will just lose to the control.
You only added 3 new cards that's how I know this deck won't be that great.
Most good decks in new expansions have at least 6 new cards in it
Speaking from personal experience you usually can't just copy and paste a deck from the past expansion throw a couple cards in and expect it to be good in the new one.
Never knew he or his data existed
People are really sleeping on Irondeep Trogg in Handbuff Paladin.
Best cards of the set along with Shaman
Was looking for this comment
and if Balinda draws 2 C'thun Spells...
I don't know why. There's a ton of good new cards in this set. Aside from maybe Mage and Druid cards

I think Elemental Freeze Shaman would be better.
and if you're going for a Doom hammer build you pretty much need 2 to give you more chances to draw it.
Multicast Bru'kan and the spell damage synergy is all too slow (too slow for a burst deck)
I know it's a theorycraft but it's already been figured out that, that isn't the best way to build Shaman.

Can't wait to have my minions silenced, stolen, and polymorphed.
Fireball is a better charge though.
Don't forget Mr. Smite
Haven't looked at the cards much but Paladin looks broken.
Irondeep Trogg looks like a sleeper op card.
