For my next legendary, I'm kinda stuck between Aya Blackpaw and Bloodmage Thalnos. A little background: I play exclusively wild, so rotation and the like is not an issue. Thalnos and Manic Soulcaster are the only left additions to my reno mage deck, and aya is the last card I need to complete a Midrange Jade build. 

1. does thalnos have a spot in Evolve Jade Shaman? Is Thrall, Deathseer necessary for this build (this is a midrange version without patches)?

2. If thalnos doesn't slot into Evolve Jade Shaman, which will be a better investment?

I'm leaning towards thalnos atm, but I really want to play evolve shaman...

 Thanks in advance :)

they're both tier 1 legendaries, you should look into getting them both.

if you like jade decks at all, aya is a must. thalnos can fit in a lot of decks. thalnos isnt great in evolve shaman, people played him when spirit claws was good.

Thalnos isn't in too many top meta decks anymore. Tempo rogue doesn't run them(only miracle), secret mage doesn't run it, warlocks doesn't run it anymore. Only deck I can think of that runs it are Priests.

Bloodmage Thalnos is classic... So you get him and your are set for long. Aya rotates out in April, and if Thalnos rotates out too you will get your dust when he goes to hall of fame, so it is good either way...

good point. but as a wild player rotation doesn't affect me. thanks though

thanks guys, I ended up crafting thalnos because he fits into my reno mage deck and will probably slot into my malyshaman deck, although i'm still unsure about this. 

aya is next for sure, and then thrall :)

Good call on crafting Thalnos, he's a timeless legendary that will always see play regardless of meta, and can be played in all 9 classes.
