Hey, below you'll find a list of the legendaries I currently have, as well as some information about which one I'm thinking of crafting next and why. Any input is greatly appreciated.
Own: Thalnos, Cairne, Ragnaros, Leeroy, Onyxia, Black Knight, and Archmage Antonidas.
Classes I will NOT play: Paladin & Warrior. Therefore I'm not crafting Tirion or Grommash.
So. I'm thinking about making Jaraxxus for my Handlock deck--but with the new meta we're seeing a decent amount of Silences appearing. Making Handlock's Giant/Taunt defenses to save yourself fairly weak right now. A strong Zoolock or Hunter will rip right thru me before I ever get to play Jaraxxus. But I'm debating it.
Next on the list is Alexstraza. I think she would be an okay add to my Priest Control deck, but I mainly want her for my Freeze Mage. I own the Mage Legendary, so this would be quite a strong deck. However... I don't own any Doomsayers--nor do I have the dust to make 2 of those, another Ice Block, and another Pyroblast.. So I don't know if the deck would actually be strong enough.
My next thought would be to make Prophet Velen. I feel like 85%+ the time he's played he solidifies the win for the priest. I also think he becomes exceptionally strong with a Mind Blast followed by a Holy Fire, if you're able to play them of course. I don't know. I climbed to rank 3 last month with my Control Priest deck without Velen. Plus I think Priest is really good in this meta. Lots of things to silence, shadow word, holy nova the zoos, holy fire is always a solid card too. Do you Priest mains LOVE Velen?
I guess if I don't craft any of those 3, I was thinking about Ysera. I just.. Idk if she's really that godly. You can get some pretty bad cards with her. But she would be phenomenal for my late game Priest, any of her minions make whatever remainders I usually have left in my deck look bad (by the time I would play her).
I'd say Alexstrasza is strong as long as you have other legendaries to support her. Lord Jaraxxus is somewhat situational, and Prophet Velen isn't strong right now.
I would say Sylvanas. Ysera doesn't win your game unless you get a lucky draw - she lets you win bigger. Sylvanas can win you games. Especially in a Shaman deck running reincarnate she is now a very serious threat.

Well. Lemme know what you all think. Thanks.

If you're looking for versatility, also consider The Black Knight or Sylvanas Windrunner.
Ysera is very strong too but it's up for debate as to whether or not she's too slow currently.
I have Black Knight. Will edit.
Nozdormu. So useful in this meta, brainless zoo players get distracted with the rope burning and its a free win!
Nerf Nozdormu pls!!
Ysera
I would say Sylvanas. Ysera doesn't win your game unless you get a lucky draw - she lets you win bigger. Sylvanas can win you games. Especially in a Shaman deck running reincarnate she is now a very serious threat.
imo it's Sylvanas Windrunner. I'm kind of a fan.
