Standard Format is coming to Hearthstone, and in this first year we're dropping The Curse of Naxxramas adventure and the Goblins Vs Gnomes expansion. It's immediately obvious which cards we're losing, but what's not so obvious is how this affects cards that summon other cards, add them to your hand, or have tribal synergy. This is a list to help out with that.
You can find me here! Good luck everyone!
Oh I didn't even think how hard Museum Curator would be hit, with the majority of the good deathrattle cards being Naxx.
RIP priest... You will be missed...
Well, still has loot hoarder, harvest golem, sylvanas windrunner, cairne bloodhoof, anubisath sentinel and bloodmage thalnos.

Grand Crusader will greatly increase my chances of getting mysterious challenger. This is a great buff for my secret mage deck. :)
gotta remember some of these card are awesome, and will be missed. But at the same time there is going to be an entire new set of cards that might heal, taunt. Or for instance, they could replace Dark Cultist with another card that is 3 cost 3/4 with new text that does something new!
It is hard to say that any random card is nerfed or buffed by the addition/removal of cards because both good and bad cards are added/removed, completely changing the odds. For example, Museum Curator loses its ability to get many of the good 3 and 4 drops, but now has a much greater chance of getting a 6-drop as an option with also cutting the pool of available options by about half, making it more reliable.
The one exception I would say is Bane of Doom, which lost 3 of the best demons to get and only 1 bad demon.
As for Grand Crusader, the number of Paladin cards (and all class cards) will not change from the current format to Standard assuming that the next set is an expansion the same size as TGT. (GvG had 8 cards per class + Naxx's 1. TGT had 9 in every class except for Hunter, which got an extra Legendary to push it to 10.)
A heavy control paladin will appear, that's for sure (yeah, they lost a lot of early play, but their heavy contorl repression is almost intact), and I think anyfin paladin can take it too.
Priest will be dragon, however, will need the new expansion to be finished,a s entomb and excavated evil will just not be enough.

# Cards lost > # cards gained
Hello Freeze Mage, Combo Druid and Aggro Shaman!!
freeze mage losing like 5 cards including mad scientist loatheb (some run healbot)
I bet Blizz will have to take some time from introducing wildly new cards, as they'll have to fill up all the empty space that the new format will introduce. Without GvG the number of Mechs is a grand total of 5. Not sure if I wanna return back to the Classic times when the Mech sub-type was purely decorative, especially now with Gorillabot A-3.
Curator is still decent outside of maybe 3-4 cards; Gorillabot just became nigh on worthless. Mech decks will virtually vanish from standard.
Minor annoyance:
You listed Summoning Stone as losing the spells, when it will actually lose the minions.
