I opened 50 packs and got Madam Goya, Finja, Genzo the shark, Auctionmaster Beardo, and golden Don Han'Cho. Will the 4 legendaries be useful or should I dust it?
I think White Eyes is the most overrated card since everybody thought Troggzor the Earthinator was going to be the best thing in GvG. Who is playing control Shaman?

Keep them until the meta settles. Dust them only if you need the dust for a tier 1 deck, no need to sit on extra dust.
Replace Meme idol with Patches and I agree. Small-time buccaneer would be fair without Patches, and Patches would be fair without Small-time buccaneer. They're unfair (aka constructed viable and best cards in the set) because they work together.
Is Small-time Bucc+Patches+ weapon really a better opening than Wyrm+Coin+Mirror Image or Trogg+Totem Golem? Especially since, after that opening, which you won't get most of the time, you're playing a pirate deck?

finja is amazing in anyfin. goya, genzo, and beardo are all questionable, but it's probably worth waiting.
Meme Idol is Jade Idol? Lol. I think that's the top1 card of the expansion and one of the strongest, if not the strongest, card ever released in the game. It's a 1mana spell that single handedly cancels fatigue, can act as its own win condition, and means that the traditional concept of a "control" deck as we know it no longer exists, because no control deck can hope to out-resource a deck that runs a single copy of Jade Idol. That's a lot for a 1mana spell. The only reason I didnt rank the cards is because I can't accurately predict their impact on the meta; Jade Idol imo is strongest on a power level to anythinge else, but i'm pretty sure most of your games on ladder will be against pirate warrior, not jade druid.
I agree with you that Patches is definitely really strong. But I wouldn't call Small-time buccaneer fair without it. It's a 1mana 3/2 in any class that can reliably have a weapon out on turn2 - this is really busted in a game that considers Leper Gnome a card requiring a nerf.
The thing is, it's a druid card. You're committing cards to ramping up your mana. It's hard to survive to fatigue when you are drawing Jade Idols and shuffling them back into the deck.
How is Jade Druid doing right now against midrange Shaman?
Kazakus is the first legendary I crafted, and he is really underwhelming imo. He is good with as a bonus in a reno deck but he is just not as impactful as Reno imo. He would be a lot stronger if the three choices weren't so random. The AOE choice is usually always the best since it's not only situational like the sheep and freeze ones. And why would I wanted random demons if I'm playing mage or a warlock deck that doesn't have demo synergy.
I love Kabal Trafficker. I'd say it's better than sylvanas with all the new boardwipes. It's not THAT much worse when playing from behind, and it is eons better when playing while ahead.
Kazakus, for sure! It works pretty well in my Reno-Shadowform-Dragon-Deck!

well, we just wait a few weeks for meta to settle down and we shall see if White Eyes is worth it,
I unpacked a White Eyes , so it better be good
Definitely Drakonid Operative, Dragonfire Potion. As if playing against priest wasn't annoying enough.
