Lava Shock

Lava Shock is a rare shaman spell card, from the Blackrock Mountain set.

Lore

While there is no World of Warcraft spell named Lava Shock, shamans have access to a range of 'shocks', including Frost Shock and Earth Shock, which have already been added to Hearthstone.

Lava Shock does feature minorly as an NPC ability in Warlords of Draenor, appropriately found during the Operator Thogar fight in Blackrock Foundry. However, this Lava Shock is wielded by Blackrock orcs, potentially against the Dark Iron dwarves, as shown on the Hearthstone card's art.

In Hearthstone

If you manage to take the heat and survive a few drinks at the Grim Guzzler, make sure you stroll steadily along the stone paths that connect the city. Those paths are all that separate you from a dip in a molten volcanic river! Shamans can harness the essence of lava in order to melt away their Overload problems. How refreshing!
