Also thinking about Jepetto Joybuzz, Keeper Steladris, Khadgar, and Kalecgos.
In my personal opinion Keeper Steladris seems like the safest craft of those mentioned above, but I figured I would reach out to the forums too.
I know everyone says wait until the meta dies down before crafting anything, but I hate doing that because I feel expansion launches are the most fun time to play the game.
I'd say of the ones you mentioned, Keeper Stelandris and Blastmaster Boom are the best value crafts. Keeper is in pretty much every druid deck you can make right now and Bomb warrior is here to stay.
Elysiana is perhaps a bit shortsighted because if bomb warrior drops to normal levels of play and it isn't a control meta then it might not see a ton of play outside of fatigue warrior.
Japetto Joybuzz isn't making a big impact now but it is the kind of card that should see play at some point, it's got that weird ass combo power going on.
Khadgar and Kalecgos are fun cards, I unpacked them and played with them. Mage is not looking amazing though so keep that in mind. Probably the most unsafe crafts you mentioned.

Thanks for the response man, really appreciate it. I see what you are saying about Khadgar and Kalecgos, makes complete sense. I do think of the two maybe Khadgar has the most potential in my opinion. Then again, how good is board generation with all the board clear of warrior going around right now you know? Maybe Kalecgos is better.
It's weird, this is the first expansion I have looked at all the legendaries and not said to myself, oh that legendary is complete garbage. Every one of them looks like it could be good in some way or another, even Oblivitron seems to be doing good. I hate this, but I love it at the same time because it gives so many different decks potential.

Also, I never crafted Wardruid Loti from last xpac, what's your opinion on her? Think she will be good one day, or is she not very good?

I was running Wardruid Loti in post nerf Malygos druid (in the Wrath slot) / spiteful druid and I was happy with how it performed. It's flexible and Druid makes good use of that. With Naturalize gone, have a poison stealth dude could be good in certain kinds of druid especially and the rush one is just decent removal. I just don't think there is a kind of druid right now who wants it. It doesn't fit in token or heal and druid really doesn't seem to have anything else going right now. I think it'll probably see play later on. Definitely not worth crafting at the moment.

No probs. I think Khadgar and Kalecgos are both super good cards, mage just doesn't have enough heals to stabilize against aggro/bomb warrior. Like I would get full control of the board but still be in burst range. Late game mage really misses Jaina. Without a hero they can't really compete with the Hagatha or Boom value engines and Priest resurrect kind of boards (and they also steal your Kalecgos which feels really bad). Control decks always refine after aggro decks are done refining, so i'm sure a more efficient slow mage will come out, but I still think it needs some more support to be a top deck.
Blastmaster Boom is absolutely worth the craft. I didn't get him from my pre-order packs so I crafted him immediately, and he provides such a huge swing because it's so easy to put bombs in your opponent's deck. It's even more insane when coupled with Dr. Boom, Mad Genius, as the fireworks from the rushing Boom Bots just wreak havoc across the board. I wouldn't say it's oppressive yet, it's just an incredibly good card that swings games.
I suspect it'll be nerfed to summoning 1 Boom Bot per bomb in your opponent's deck. I hope it's not anytime soon.

Blastmaster Boom and Archivist Elysiana.
Should I?

Blastmaster Boom is looking like it will be good until a nerf hits. Elysiana is probably good to hold off on.

Elysiana is great in every control deck. Boom is "good" just in one deck so if you like the deck go ahead.
I'm sorry for my bad english :D

Oblivitron is pretty solid overall but is especially strong when it's pulling out Mechanical Whelps.
I'm pretty happy with the new meta. All kinds of different things , I think there are a lot of decks that will come along.
