I can picture one particular instance where the disruption is bad for the opponent almost no matter what it disrupts: when the terran player have won board (even if slightly) while having the disruption effect ready right on turn 4.
When it’s that early, and you’re slightly behind in board, losing almost any card may mean you can’t respond back, even if it’s a cheap card. Even losing a coin when going second means you can’t coin a bigger move to retake the board (again, you’re slightly behind right now, you kinda need to do something to retake board)
The terran pieces are kinda weak on their own to win the early board though. The current neutral divine shield 2 drop is probably a better starship piece to set that up, along with whatever other cards you have to win that board.

I predict the cancellation of Shudderblock. Maybe not immediately, because the Devs aren’t the brightest with their so-called “intended” design.

Except it’s a Paladin, Shaman, Warrior card so yeah, no. We’ll (Priest) will just make a copy or steal it or both and kill libram Paladin in Wild so there’s that.
Can confirm paladin definitely isn’t running this, we’ll wait and see warrior and if it’s run in shaman it’ll be one of the weaker cards
Yeah, I see this and I immediately think of annoying Shudderblock things.
This will be the new “Boomboss” except Shaman will be able to do it twice (at minimum).

Why. If you manage to pull a Shudderblock you’ll almost empty their hand with 6 deletions?
The only way to survive it is probably to not have lethal already on board.
This is 6 mana + 4 or 1 + 4 in the late game to delete 3 lowest cost cards and you’d have to do it twice to delete 6.
And let’s not forget there’s a condition: you need to be building a starship (not launched). It even is counterable/ can play around it. What you describe is beyond meme deck status and would only be a genuine game-winning move against control decks or very slow combos.
The card is good but people are overrating the disruption potential. It’s a nice upside on top of the great body, but you don’t really want to build around this unless in very specific matchups.
It’s only expensive if it’s a typical fast deck. It sounds reasonable for a typical slow deck with defenses.
