This card doesn’t need to do 50000 damage to be good. At worst you pair this with like Aimed Shot and you played a 2 mana 2/3 deal 3 to face which is more than playable given Hunter’s track record of shoving questionable face damage cards in the deck. That is also the “worst” case scenario.
The wording of the Terrorcoil with “the next spell CASTS twice” also leads me to believe it will also double dip on this card in which case turn 4 Terrorcoil into this plus Aimed Shot on 5 is 12 damage to the dome with a 6 damage hero power in the waiting room.

It’s too slow to be good. Paladin is getting a 3 mana 2/5 divine shield taunt that is perfect buff food and people are calling it questionable.
Murlocs don’t want defensive statlines and value when the play is smacking the opponent in the dome and winning before you run out of cards in hand on turn 4-5.
Multi-Strike
2 mana deal 3 damage to 1 minion has always been pretty serviceable. This does it to 2 at the cost of health.
This sees play in probably every slower dh deck to keep aggro off the board. It does also buff the hero card technically.
Blackwater Behemoth
Edit: don’t feel like sifting through all the cards that will be post rotation, but I can imagine this sees play in questline priest solely because there aren’t really any better 8s.
Blackwater Behemoth
I mean if you play it against anything aggressive you win since you are pretty much guaranteed to heal for 8 and have an obnoxious minion to remove since ~7 health is a hard breakpoint. The issue is getting there.
I do find it funny the absolute horrendous anti-synergy between this and the draw 2 spell in the same set.
Seafloor Savior
A card that makes your deck worse unless a condition is met (this getting cariel handbuffed) isn’t good.
This needs to be at least at +2/+2 to be playable and even that seems like it is pushing it.
Switcheroo
I mean card draw is card draw. I mean it technically can replace insight as your kazakusan tutor. I don’t see the stat swap ever really being relevant since Priest doesn’t have the payoff cards like say Paladin did with Lens which was also typically meme territory.
Twinbow Terrorcoil
Me go face twice with aimed shot. Mmm yes 10 damage. Doesn’t even have to be same turn.
Tuskarrrr Trawler
Demon Hunter had this exact mechanic on a card for the top 3 (pretty sure it was also a 2 2/3) and it saw 0 play despite having better synergy with it than most classes since it guarantees an outcast.
This mechanic is doomed imho unless they print a way to draw your dredges immediately.
Xhilag of the Abyss
I mean I feel the idea is you play it in a token based deck. This is a 1 card demand a board clear which if we’ve learned anything from druid in the past, there is a critical mass of boards where one will eventually stick and you win.
Spellcoiler
I find it so weird that this is just premium stats considering 2 mana 2/3 get a card has been a thing for years. Should’ve been discover a spell baseline and if you meet the requirements get +1/+1 or something.
This card is generally not getting played on curve unless you’re a quest deck and even then it is a horrible top deck.

I mean, if rogue can afford to play a 5 mana removal card it is insane as it gets around pretty much every form of protection. Vilespine Slayer in shambles right now.
Azsharan Sweeper
Haven’t checked in awhile, but iirc the mech pool is abyssmally small so this is actually insane value with like sneeds or whatever, but dear god is it slow and value just doesn’t matter unless it is absurd like Kazakusan.
Sir Finley, Sea Guide
I mean why do humans need to wear any sort of clothing in decent weather? Finley is just a refined gentleman and doesn’t want to show off too much.
Kotori Lightblade
Not seeing it. Voraxx, while it DID cost more, saw only meme play with A LOT more buffs to work with. Also, while this costs 2 as opposed to 4, you still need to provide another minion on board to get literally anything out of this.
Curse of Agony
If this doesn’t ramp the fatigue then it is fine. As it would be 1+1+1+1 (starting from the fatigue they are on currently). Now if it ramps fatigue then congrats for 1 mana deal 10 damage with the second copy outright killing them.
Grave Defiler
Copy felosophy so you can copy your copying…..wait what are we trying to do again?
I don’t know all the warlock fel spells off the top of my head, but this definitely feels like it should have a dark green background and not purple….
Hold the Bridge
It’s a control paladin tool that requires already having board presence. If the lifesteal lasted until the end of the opponent’s turn I would maybe consider it, but as it stands I don’t see it.
Herald of Lokholar
Targetted card draw is only as good as the targets. Not really seeing it being worth it especially at 4 mana when cards like the dungeoneers cost 3.
Not sure what deathrattles are sticking around, but this has to be better than some of the current ones right? DH will also probably get more draw to replace cards rotating either in this set or the core set.
