First card I crafted the day the expansion hit. I really thought this would be a hot card, even if I had to use it in Wild but it's just too damn slow. That's what I get for being impulsive I guess.
The very first card I crafted in Ungoro was the ONLY card I regret crafting, which is ironic because it was the one card I was $100% SURE couldn't be bad, Awaken the Makers... I never would have believed it would be crap until I actually tried to build a deck around it, I STILL can't believe how poorly it performs. You know what I should have crafted in it's place? Lyra, which was the one card I was sure would be shit and now it turns out that it's actually decent (although I can't agree that it's GREAT like some people are insisting, but it is decent).
I opened Spiritsinger Umbra in a pack, thankfully. If not I would have also crafted her immediately, but she is actually really good in wild. Actually being a staple in my Majordomo quest priest with the ability to make a huge swing turn before i drop Majordomo Executus
Do keep in mind folks ... these cards are in the set for the next 2 years, in which there will be other expansions ... for example, don't count out the priest quest, as the devs could easily add cards that make it MUCH stronger ... all you need is better deathrattles.
eh, it's fine. the one nice thing about this expansion is that there really aren't too many must-have legendaries and the ones that are strong are in specific classes. And I had about 10,000 dust when the expansion hit so I still have quite a bit of dust to play around with.
And I also crafted Lyra, but I'm glad I did. Have already helped me take an inner fire priest deck to rank 7, and I'm slowly climbing still!
I've had some success with Umbra, and it will forever synergise with whatever deathrattles get added in future. It tends to work better with low mana minions like Mistress of Mixtures, Load Hoarder, Bloodmage Thalnos etc. Also consider that at worst it will be considered a high priority target for your opponent, I've had Shamans Hex it, Pirate Warriors trade (!) into it.
that was one of the first cards i knew i had to craft. after playing it for hours, it's been such a waste, sadly.... sure it's fun and all and that's pretty much it's entire purpose. i just hoped it'd be a bit more useful that it turned out to be

I actually opened a golden Umbra .... so tempting to dust it, but I know that future expansions could make it quite strong. So I'll wait and see. I can always dust it later.
I crafted Lakkari Sacrifice [/card]and [card]Clutchmother Zavas. I can't get Lakkari sacrifice to work at all but am glad I have Clutchmother - she works great in my discolock deck.
Umbra is decent enough. We lack good deathrattle cards more than anything else. So it's not really the fault of the card perse.
I think the biggest noob-trap was the Warlock Quest Lakkari Sacrifice. So many people overhyped it, but it was clear right away to me that it has no deck to fit in. I even wrote that in the reveal post. It's the only legendary I got out of the packs I got, but I have yet to even play it - and that as warlock main. Iol
I told people that Spiritsinger Umbra was overhyped and not very good, and i got downvoted, seems like i was right.
I knew she was overhyped. I told myself it wasn't worth the dust... then I crafted it because it seemed hilarious to pair with Living Mana. So, I wasn't shocked but it was definitely 1600 dust I could have arguably spent more wisely. :P
Honestly, the one thing I regret is crafting King Mosh since I really haven't played Quest Warrior as much as I thought I would. He's a sweet card though so I think it'll pan out eventually.

I crafted the hunter quest cause I thought it would be fun. I think my mistake is worse than yours...
Quit complaining and just have fun with this game!
Crafted hunter quest AND king dred.. so please, a little respect.. for I am setoxsc, Lord of the idiots. (Seinfeld reference anyone?)

Forgive me, friend. I have failed.
