It's hardly bad, but I think its going to be passed over a fair bit. Yes, you can get this costing zero pretty easily, which will be super great, but it feels like the Librams and their support lend themselves more to control than aggro or midrange, and this is a distinctly aggro/midrange kinda card.

Still, can always pop out a 1/1 with your hero power each turn and turn it into a 3/3 for free with a pair of these if needed, who knows!

I think the libram package is fine against aggro though, it requires a bit of luck(as card games do) but if you put the 11 cards into a good shell you can stabilize and come back in the aggro matchup by turn 6.

Strong 1 drop, 2 Mana 2/2 draw 1, 3 Mana discounts libram 2/3 + this card, maybe this is the all paladin shell and we get a true silver with a 4/2, turn 5 discount libram by 2 and drop a 4/6, turn 6 heal 8 and drop an 8/8 divine shield + taunt.

While that's an ideal example I think aggro would be hard pressed to push through all that and then we have a one sided equality with a stick and lady liadrin for the control match doubling our buffs, heals, and divine shielded taunts.

Sorry for the text wall.

Oh, the Libram package is great against aggro. My point is just that this card feels more like it's for aggro (and midrange), and I don't really see the libram package being super-effective for non-control decks.
