I don't know how much has the meta slowed down in the last three months, but it was way too slow when I was playing Wild to be considered viable. Anyway, it's a great card and if it fits your playstyle go for it! Maybe not golden lol

he is used but not used as much as you think if you got spare dust to burn then craft but no way craft the golden version :)

He is a very good card in Control and in Highroll decks. Its not a must craft tho. I'd say it is a soild Tier 2-3 Wild Legendary.

Thanks for the replies !

I was thinking of this deck, looks sweet:)

So, I opened the Darkness in a pack... I am trying it in cubelock and a mill kingsbane deck, but is it actually good?

I need dust for Zola, to play in my Quest Rogue Deck... 

What do u guys recon? Does it actually help the wr or is it worth to dust?

thnx

Is Kel'Thuzad a safe craft in wild ? I'm even thinking of getting it golden

Hey, Slyde, kinda in the mood to express my opinion about the tier list in the context of the current meta and maybe some changes you could consider:

Tier 2

Alexstrasza - Strong neutral card, playable in most control decks.
Harrison Jones - Solid neutral tech card.
The Black Knight - Solid neutral tech card.

While I won't argue, that they are really solid cards and the feeling of getting them in a pack would be an amazing one, I just don't think they should be put in the tier 2 spot atm. Once again, just like my very first post  in this thread (mentioning White Eyes), the problem is not their strength, but mostly their popularity and I personally haven't seen them for a long time. Dunno for wild, I don't really play there, but I'm more than sure about my words for standard. When mentioning mage I just think of tempo/secret and probably quest. Neither of them run the dragon, maybe in some big spell variations. I also haven't seen big dudu for a while, so the card's playability has dropped a lot since K&C. The other two cards are just some tech choices, which could easily be replaced. I can only admit, that Harrison could be put in a tier 2.5 spot, since there are notable implications for him in this meta taking into consideration how popular cubelock is, maybe some other weapon classes as well. But he is slow and I have only seen the oozes being used - the normal 3/2 in some warlock decks, the 3/3 mainly in Razapriest.

LOL regarding The Black Knight - I even typed him in hsreplay.net and there were no matches found regarding standard.

Tier 3

Frost Lich Jaina - Staple in big spell mage
Tyrantus - Playable in big- and beast druid.

I'm not really OK with placing both of them there.

Although control mage isn't a thing in standard and it's pretty clear to me why you put the DK there, I think she deserves either the tier 2.5 spot (which doesn't and won't exist, I know) or just having the additional text, that she has many implications, that she defines almost every control and value mage out there, but it's because how the current environment is formed, that's why we don't see that much of her. Slyde, there are really other DKs, which are seeing a lot more play and maybe they can offer way more bigger win-rates than she does (priest's, warlock's), but if you ask me she is even stronger than most of the cards you listed in the tier 2 spot. Also let's not forget how she was the best DK is the arena format. I know, that the time is not now for her, but you can really write as a small note, that we should watch out for her. 

As for Tyrantus - I personally don't think, that he deserves to be put that high, not to mention, that a former popular card among almost all previous metas share the same ranking spot as he does (Archmage Antonidas). I don't know how exactly do those big and beast decks look like, but I haven't seen him in standard like at all. Even when big dudu was a thing, Tyrantus just wasn't there, there was no reason to include him. He didn't provide any taunt, you couldn't land an Earthen Scales on him, he didn't really provide any helpful effect.

Maybe its time to reconsider Wickerflame Burnbristle, Shaku, the Collector and Cairne Bloodhoof to.

Wickerflame is one of the least played cards according to HSReplay and Shaku is only a few spots above him in the list.
Cairne seems to be replaced to after K&C release.
Agree with Kovachut about Harrison and TBK.
Harrison was expected to rise again with K&C weapons, but i don't see him either.
TBK, i can't even find him on HSReplay, as if they don't know he exists :D

Thanks my friend. Very helpful. Should have looked for it to begin with.

So I'm a low budget  player, not exactly free to play, I get a $20 card every 1 to 3 expansions. I've been playing since Blackrock  Mountain, so my collection has always been in the "nearly complete" stage I can keep up with the meta but if a specific deck gets too powerful/popular, it's down to the card packs weather or not I can play it. The thing that hurts me the most will always be the epics in my opinion.

Anyway like the title says I got a Golden Al'Akir the Windlord today, and I've been playing since the release of Blackrock Mountain, this is actually my very first Golden Legendary ever. Now I don't care about goldens at all, I'm not a whale, and I don't care for the aesthetic of the golden animation, so I never crafted a golden legendary because I would rather want to have 2 legendaries instead of one. I'm also not going to get nostalgic about this being my very first Legendary, like I did my first Legendary Gruul and keep it just to be nostalgic and keep it.

What I care about is having as big of a collection as I can, and having fun playing the game. It's for that reason I don't attempt to climb ladder with whatever meta deck there is, if it matters my highest rank I've ever gotten with this "fun deck mentality" is rank 8 with 2 stars.

So with all that said, I don't mind disenchanting the Golden Al'Akir the Windlord I just want to know, if I should, considering the new No Duplicate Rule  that Blizzard recently added. With that said I'm going to put in a poll, and see what people have to say, I most likely will not follow the poll mindlessly, and I will be putting thought into it after the poll is done, and coming to my own decision depending on what people say.

Confessor Paletress, Nexus-Champion Saraad, Lyra the Sunshard, Awaken the Makers and Vol'jin are some cards I really want to try, but don't know wich one would fit better in a Reno Priest deck, and wich brings the more fun. I would like to find the more balanced one between Good and Fun. Any help?

IMO, it is something like this:

Tier 1: Lyra the Sunshard, Awaken the Makers
Pretty tried and tested cards, both of them, lyra for standard and quest for wild.

Tier 2: Confessor Paletress, Nexus-Champion Saraad
Require you to have your Raza/Anduin set up for maximum value, but will give you some awesome RNG moments to brag about if you are not too worried about your winrate.

Tier 3: Vol'jin A good card, but a bit too slow, and has little synergy with the deck overall. It is very hard to find a space for him, Entomb is better, and is still usually cut.

 Its Lyra actually better than Nexus? I still don't know wich pool of options its better (if only Priest ones or all clases)

I didn't know my collection was set to private, I just changed it to public. Although after a few days of thought and hearing both sides, I decided to disenchant it, mainly because I don't care for the remaining Legendaries in the Classic set. Sure there are some I'd like but I have most of the good ones, and it's an eventuality I'll have the last ones through Tavern Brawl and Spectate Quest. I think really the thing hurting my collection right now is epics, and I'll probably try focusing those for awhile.

Some cards don't work out as expected.

I'm not sure if i should dust it or not, the whole discard mechanic seems too random
