I see that Ysera is #2 Battlegrounds hero at HSReplay.
What is the correct way to play Ysera in this meta? When are you going Tier 3? What are you looking for units? Is Whelp Smuggler a factor or is that minion largely irrelevant now?
I basically just lean on Ysera to significantly better my odds of finding Prized Promo-Drake and Tarecgosa early and in quantity. Anything you can use early like Selfless Hero to give Tarecgosa permanent stats and abilities is a bonus.
Hard to say for sure. Depends on what else you are offered. The whelps could help you get to tier 3 and then you don't get the dragons that scale. The thing that helps it I think is that nearly all dragons are good enough to take to the late game with some scaling right now. Makes it super easy to play. It no longer hinges on Kelecgos or the tier 5 one that increases stats based on how many dragons you have. They are still good, but don't define the build anymore.
It's all about Tarecosa and the Tier 4 dragon that buffs them and the blaster Tier 4 dragon. Whelp Smuggler can help but is totally optional, ditch her if you need another dragon.

The new Dragons just thoroughly outclass Razorgore, and you need like 4 Battlecries a turn for Kalecgos to be as good as a Proto/Talec so you it's not as good as the new Dragons either. If it weren't for Nadina, my advice for Ysera players would be to never, ever go to Tier 5. (But you still totally want Nadina.)
I would still say that as Ysera you shouldn't go Tier 5 until you get a Triple. And generally you want to avoid Tier 5 and go straight from 4 to 6, after hanging around on 4 for a good long time.

I ended up figuring it out.

Just remember you don't need kalecgos to win with dtagons anymore.
