The first card of the miniset is a 7 mana 4/4 Murlocvthat eats a minion in the opponents hand and gets their stats

So a Alex/Tickatus tech

I love this card, cause it's so good at fixing the problems with dirty rat.

Dirty rat was fine as a tech card against combo. But when it was played against aggro and it pulled out a fire fly or the like, it was basically an instant win (2 mana 2/5 taunt that makes your opponent discard a card--aggro couldn't beat that). And when it was played against aggro and it pulled out an 8/8 it was an instant loss. It wasn't "correct" to play it on 2 vs aggro, but people at my MMR did all the time, and it was the biggest coinflip nonsense.

This card has a job--it takes out combo pieces; Alex, Tickatus, Y'sharrj, Lady Liadrin. And it does those really well (when it lands it's also a 7 mana 12/12 or 14/14 in addition to disrupting their wincon). But it comes too late to be a crazy tempo swing. By turn 7, decks can kill or freeze or stall with taunts a 12/12. The RNG will come from whether you hit their win condition, but midrange decks with no one singular win condition won't feel huge RNG swings from this card.
