With a cost of 4 resources and 4 Attack and 4 Health Morfiel is a mid game ally that has a powerful control effect. When in play Morfiel forces opposing players to pay 1 more to play abilities.

While this seems like a small penalty but it can make the difference in what combos are available to your opponent. A simple 2 card combo will not cost your opponent an additional 2 resources. and on turn 4 that is half his available resources. Morfiel combines very well with Curse of Tongues slowly choking your opponent of options.

Overall Morfiel is less flashy than Infernal or Doomguard but will see more play than Doomguard and might see more play than infernal. I am taking a long look at a control deck featuring Morfiel and Curse of Tongues. When combined with some protectors your opponent will be forced to exchange Morfiel for some powerful attacking allies while you continue to build a card advantage.
