Ogres arrive in Goblins vs Gnomes - new Rogue and Shaman cards revealed

Continuing their reveal of various themes running through the Goblins vs Gnomes, Blizzard have revealed that Ogres will be a part of the expansion and revealed their unique card mechanic.

Blizzard revealed two more cards from the Goblins vs Gnomes expansion today - the Ogre Ninja and Dunemaul Shaman. 

Both cards contain new card text not seen before in Hearthstone: "50% chance to attack the wrong enemy". This text reflects how large and clunking these minions are, and represent a new challenge to deck builders. These cards have excellent stats for their mana, and crucially will always attack an enemy unlike with Misdirection, but are they worth including given the drawback?

The Ogre Ninja, a Rogue class card, has stealth and is a 6/6 for five mana. Rogue is not known for playing decks with a whole lot of minions, but this certainly offers more versatility than the likes of Kidnapper. However, it only offers +1/+1 on the Stranglethorn Tiger (which obviously doesn't have the drawback). 

The second card, the Dunemaul Shaman, is a Shaman minion and is the second new card revealed with windfury. It is reasonable well costed at 5/4 for four mana with that all important windfury, though does have a single overload to be considered.
