I completely agree. I’ve been having good success with it and used Curse Warlock to climb to legend. The trick is to stop worrying about getting all of the damage in one turn. If you can put some mid-range pressure with your minions, always use brann and tamsin to get an extra curse or two, and effectively use your multitude of clears, you have a legitimate shot in most games. Aggro can run you over, but even that can be beat if you stabilize enough.

I think you need it just as 6 damage over 2 turns for 3 mana. It’s also another target for Greenskin and draw from Raiding Party. Don’t worry about the text, just the stats.
