While I do agree that Shredder can make for some ridiculous value, the cards you list as \'good\' are pretty much on par: A piloted shredder will die to a 3/5, who\'ll then have a good chance of killing whatever comes out. Of all the cards you mentioned, only one (totem golem) is above-par, because it survives battle with the now 3/1 (To speak nothing of the 3/6, hello twilight guardian). I\'d list the added 2-mana cards like this:

So what Blizzard is trying to do is to make shredder too unreliable when held against solid 3/5s and 3/6\'s (You don\'t see dragon priest running mechanical shredder over twilight guardian, just as you don\'t see Oil rogue running it over Violet Teacher, and if hero-power mage ever gets off the ground, you bet you\'re going to see Dalaran Aspirant). The shredder might net you a massive tempo swing, or the card that comes out could lose you the game (hello doomsayer) - Shredder is consistently powerful right now, and that\'s what Blizzard is trying to do something about. Honestly, I feel the only reason that Totem Golem exists was to attempt to push a totem-deck, not to buff the shredder.
