I love this card. Even if it gets silenced it is a 3/6 for 4, and otherwise it is at the minimum a 4/6 for 4 and on average will be at least a 5/6 for 4. Coining this out turn 3 and following up with a Flame Shock and a 2-drop or a totem is going to be pretty nasty.
shoe on head or pre-recorded
I wasn't feeling Nefarian, but with ways to reduce the mana cost, he's going to be alot of fun to use.
I need a link for future research.

Emperor Thaurissian is a 5/5 for 6 with a crazy ability.
Chromaggus is a 6/8 for 8 with a crazy ability.
Nefarian is a 8/8 for 9 with a pretty underwhelming ability.
They are doing cool things with Legendaries, except where it really matters. Nefarian's effect is really cool and interesting and flavorful, but nearly useless when the body is a 8/8 for 9mana. Its draw 2 unlikely to be useful spells. Such a bummer.
Chromaggus and Thaurissian on the other hand are amazing. The ability to draw 2 copies of every card for a couple turns is exactly the kind of powerful effect that would make a 8 mana card worth it in a deck and as a bonus the guy doesn't get destroyed by BGH. Thaurissian can be a really powerful efftect (assuming it stacks) if you can keep him alive for a couple turns your probably win outright with cheap cards being impossible to stop. Super cool idea. I hope the other cards are as interesting.

"The elements will deal 4-12 damage to you and summon 0-2 random totems for each damage dealt!"
On the stream just now, Nefarian nabbed an Echo and a Flamestrike....I dunno. I think it's incredibly strong, even if it doesn't pull ultra useful spells. The RNG nature of it all makes it harder for an opponent to play around and predict what you've got. That's always fun for the game, imo.

I can't wait to pull a turn 10 Totem (Spellpower totem), Fireguard Destroyer (7/6), Crackle for 7 damage, and Crackle again for 7 damage. The RNG will be so delicious. I hope I get to do this to Kripp sometime.

Direct reveals now.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
It's looking harder and harder to argue against the power creep. Consort should probably not be a 5/5 for 5 and that's just the beginning.
Also I feel like Chromaggus was intentionally 6 attack to dodge BGH, which once again shows the stranglehold that card has on the top end of minions. In some cases you would be hoping for your fireguard to NOT get the full +4 so he doesn't get shot.
Speaking of fireguard that thing has huge stats. 5~/6 on average for 4 mana(+ the overload) seems like a great deal.

It's extremely variable though. What if you instead got Shield Slam and Inner Rage from a Warrior? Or Call Pet and Cobra Shot from Hunter? Etc. There are too many really bad spells from each class to end up with a net positive on the effect. On the whole you'll get 2 situationally useful cards most of the time. Compared to what you get from the other two legendaries, Nefarian is garbage.
I am really excited by Chromaggus though. Imagine running 2 more copies of every card in your deck... drool..
