I'm personally note a huge fan of Tuskarr. There's the odd time it pulls a mana tide or flametongue, but the rest of the time it just pulls a crappy totem that either trades down or both die to consecrate next turn. Have you tried any other subs?
In my screwy reincarnate deck, I have explosive sheep instead of lightning storm, since I despise overload. Only negative is killing your own board, however, it is sometimes necessary to clear all the damn pally minions.
Yep, kick back anything on curve and hope for an OP legendary. Don't sweat a loss here, because the games are over in 3-4 turns. Also, it seems like class legendaries are given priority in the randomizer, so pick classes with better legendaries. Had a lot of luck with Pally thanks to Tirion.
Also, druid is pretty good too because of so many big taunts and heavy minions.
Have had this happen after being on vacation for a week or so and not finishing quests. In the scenario that three popped in, I had always completed all of my old quests within one day. Not sure if that's the trigger, or if Blizz is just allowing people to catch up one time after they've been gone awhile.
These type of decks are made for Sylvanas! Double steal omg. Also, Dr. Balanced's boombots with Rivendare on the board are amazing.
*Edit*
Two bloodlusts are too much. You aren't going to win via board control b/c this is a pretty gimmicky deck overall. I would consider putting in an Argus over an annoyotron to give you another Nerubian egg activator. Agree on ditching Fuegen and Stalagg. In 2,000ish games of hearthstone, I've seen that combo successfully pulled off one time.
I've got a reincarnate focused Shaman with Sylvanas (sole reason i crafted her), KT, cairne and earth ele. When you have reincarnate, sylvanas and 8 mana it's such a dream. Incredibly inconsistent however.
I don't want to be overly negative, but this is pretty shortsighted. Play arena, build your card base, or use the cards you receive to craft the cards that are going to make you more successful. The majority of the player base has been playing for a year or more so you are going to run into these cards at higher ranks - it's just reality with how long the game has been out. Invest in your own card base to be able to compete.
Sometimes Amazon will run a promo on spending through their system, so if you have an Android phone you can get cheaper packs too. Again, you might not need the cards, but sounds like you could use the dust.
There's not a shortcut, however, when I've watched my high-rank friends play they save their removal until the very last possible moment they will need it. I've noticed that's a huge difference in playstyle.
Shaman is my favorite class and every month or so I try putting Earth elemental in, and always end up removing it. Too many downsides when every deck is running BGH.
None of the epics you are missing are really worth crafting unless you have a certain deck archetype in mind. They are not the class staples, like Cabal is for priest or Lore is for druid.
Out of the legendaries, Sneed's is the most fun to play out of that list. I have Troggzor in a few decks and it works really well against some classes like rogue, but against others it effectively serves as a 6/6 taunt, playing a similar role as Sylvanas.
Remember he doesn't work with minions - only spells - so summoning portal would never work for instance. I believe an unstable portal at a minus-1 mana cost (assuming Thaurrissan or Sorcerer's Apprentice) would trigger him.

Great curve! Coin two drop. Flamecannon.

Great write-up! Laughed quite a bit. This could also be called the "Great Tech Deck To Rule Them All" (if you don't get burned down ruthlessly).
Alternative title: Walletadin.
Alternative, alternative: ALL UR DUST

Always wished I could gift packs to friends to get started or for holidays. What's better than opening 50 presents?!

Fen definitely here. As you mentioned, Dupe synergy.

I DE'd my golden doomsayer for BGH and am sad to this day. Such an awesome card.
