Craft Genn Greymane without a 2nd thought. I like Alexstrasza too, as she has seen play in several decks for a long time, but I understand if you would rather open up quest warrior (those epics are enough imo.)
Alright, I'll definitely craft Genn Greymane, another question, I heard about this quest shaman deck with Shudderwock] and [card]Hagatha the Witch (I own the second one) with the remaining 3200 dust (counting the golden dred) I could craft Unite the Murlocs and Shudderwock. I've seen some footage of the deck and because it has Hagatha and the quest and shudderwock it has a lot of sustain, but because it is a murloc deck it can generate a big heap of pressure. Does this sound like anything with a chance of succes?
I don't think so, you will get wiped by any top meta deck. I think Jades in Wild is by far the best deck for good Shudderwock memes.
Also, the new WW Wild Ransom druid is actually vable, if you want something with an unorthodox win condition.
He is one of my favourite legendaries. People never know how to deal with him. If I could go back and create one minion in gold, it would have been him. Well, him or Chillmaw.
What is the general opinion on Sky Cap'n Kragg? I usually don't disenchant legendaries but I opened him in gold. If he is at least fun to play with I'll keep him.
Ever since I've started playing Hearthstone, I've loved control warrior. It seems that odd control warrior is very similar to the old control deck, but I am missing key cards to finish the odd warrior deck.
I was wondering, to anyone who has played odd warrior, if the large sum of dust is worth investing in the deck? Basically, is the deck fun, replicates old control warrior themes, and somewhat competitive?
The cards that I need to craft are: Baron Geddon, Darius Crowley, King Mosh, and a couple other warrior epics

Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, powercreep has overrun the old Big-bomb minions style of control warrior a long time ago. Tje epics are safe, but I would not craft any legendary specifically for that deck.
Edit: Odd control warrior IS viable, but has polarizing matchups, being destoyed by quest rogue, big spell mage and control warlock, but it does well vs paladin and tempo decks.
Golden Skycap'n Kragg is a safe DE imo, after you have toyed around with him a bit in tempo rogue and pirate warrior.
I wrote a short response above, sorry for not having realized the deck actually works!
For crafting, teching and descussing the viability of very class specific archetypes, I would recommend the class forum rather than this thread. There you will almost always find what you are looking for in existing threads:
Hey guys I need an opinion: I want to splurge with a nice deck. My options and required crafts are:
-Murloc Paladin: need Tarim, 2x Warleader and 1x CTA. I like its consistency and the fact that 2 cards are evergreen and neutral.
-Spiteful Druid: need Keleseth and Leeroy (replaceable with the basic card). Both legendaries are neutral, and 1 is evergreen. I fear Keleseth will stop being relevant soon.
-Tempo Mage: need Aluneth. A Cheaper option but maybe Aluneth becomes a bad card.
-Quest Rogue: need Sonya and the Preparations. The preparations are evergreen and I might get my money back if they get nerfed (and maybe they will someday).
I like Murloc Pally because it complements my Cubelock's matchups: together they are only vulnerable to Even Pally. I consider myself a Druid and Mage main.
Ok thank you. Will craft Baku for now and wait on the rest. I know what you mean about Hadronox though, has always been on the edge of craftable for me.
I dont recommend hadronox. but if you ever want to play paladin this year, which is currently a very strong class you will need call of arms.
if you got the cards necessary I recommend murloc paladin.
Shame on the Hadonox, that deck did look rather fun. I should say, I have no real interest in ranks and meta stuff. A second call to arms I should get for sure and I do have all the murlocs. I am loving Quest pally at the moment and it is probably a refreshing change for my opponents, I still win but It is more midrange than aggro pally
the hadronox deck can be fun, but is often very frustrating to play, you go through you whole deck to find a single card.
and the deck is extreme late game. each game takes a lot of time. then there are counters like polymorph or vanish.
as such I dont recommend crafting it, playing it when you got the cards already is a different thing though.
it is very satisfying to build up one wall of taunt after the other though and kill the opponent while you are already in fatigue.

So what do you all think? Thanks in advance.
First of all I have crafted and played all the decks you mention at rank 5 upward.
From a competitive point of view, murloc paladin would be the best choice, at least as long as you dont play tournements.
Especially since the cards you mention build a good base for this HS year and will be needed anyway as long as you dont play odd pala.
Quest rogue is basically an autowin against control decks and autoloss against aggro, I just crafted it again and it is a fun deck.
The preparations you will always need as long as you dont play odd rogue (or tempo rogue), which is a really good deck right now. sonya is in general for rogue decks a good alternative but not autoinclude, in many decks it does not even increase your win rate. but it can help to create additional value instead of card draw.
The tempo mage with aluneth is currently not that good and that comes from someone whose favorite deck was and always will be tempo mage (with flamewaker though =) ). I tried the different versions and while it is playable, you are extremely dependent on drawing aluneth.
Spiteful druid is still good, but I would not craft keleseth right now, as he is basically only needed for this deck only. leeroy is always a good craft and also needed for rogue (because of shadow step leeroy).
at the end you can get to high legend with all the decks though as long as you get the right match-ups.
it really depends on what the people at your rank play and what you enjoy playing.
Like if you say you really want to play mage and you dont like the control/burn decks, which are working way better currently, then you are basically forced to craft aluneth.
if with the next expansion more aggro decks come up again, maybe quest rogue becomes obsolete for ladder at least at a normal rank (rank 5 or low legend).
the druid decks next expansion maybe dont play keleseth either.
I really do think the safest to craft would be paladin and not only in this meta but for this HS year, also murlocs are fun.
and cta and tarim are one of the best cards in the game, if not the best cards.
Should I craft golden Rin, the First Disciple and golden Lord Godfrey for control warlock?I ve played rin in witch hunt once and found it pretty fun and I don’t want to play cube lock + I like control decks but I don’t like to spend dust without being sure
Both are super good in control locks. I'd recommend Godfrey first since he's an amazing board clear in a meta with aggro paladins going rampant. Rin is less important in this meta, but she's your win condition against another control matchup. I wouldn't craft them golden IMO, but that's because I'd rather have many non golden cards rather than a few golden ones, but if you like them golden, do it ;)
Hey guys… Should I craft Alexstrasza for control priest… I have already crafted a lot of cards this expansion but the decks looks cool and I like control decks like this one.

To quote SlydE, "I think Alexstrasza will stay in tier 2 forever, as she has such a powerful effect that will go in and out of the meta."
I'd agree with that. Alex has been a staple of many archetypes due to her ability to instantly set a hero's life to 15. While this can be used for healing yourself, it is most often used to bring your opponent down to a level where you can easily burn them next turn, especially with an 8/8 on the board to help with that.
I'd go as far to say that should Blizzard decide to Hall of Fame more classic legendaries, it will be her and Leeroy Jenkins.
SlydE, I have a request. Can you change the name of Tier 2 to something other than "Tech"? It causes problems when trying to explain concepts to people. Yes, Hemet Nessingwary is a tech card, and no, you shouldn't craft it because it's a tier 5 tech card.
It would be nice to point out cards that are required for archetypes. You can't play quest rogue without The Caverns Below but you can play control warlock without Lord Godfrey. You can't play Witching Hour value druid without Hadronox but you can play taunt druid without it. ...and while you can play even or odd decks without Baku the Mooneater or Genn Greymane, it would be idiotic as the hero power effect is what you're sacrificing card choices for.
It would also be nice to point out anti-synergy between legendaries. Frost Lich Jaina and Aluneth are both great cards to craft, but you don't want to put them into the same deck; Aluneth will kill you long before you could obtain any value from elemental healing.
Lastly of really minor note, Mayor Noggenfogger has one unique use: it is the only way to use the "sorry" emote since it was removed back in Old Gods. None of the hero cards have a sorry emote, but every single playable hero has one, including recent ones like Arthas (A royal apology, friend.), Nemsy (Awww, I'm sorry.), and Lunara (I have to apologize for that.). It still doesn't bring him out of trash tier, but it is still cool.

Alexstrasza or Sindragosa for my Big Spell Mage?
I'm sorry for my bad english :v
Alexstrasza is better than Sindragosa.
Alex also sees play in the mind blast priest deck (which did 80 damage to me from hand with 1 mind blast the other day lol).
Craft Genn Greymane without a 2nd thought. I like Alexstrasza too, as she has seen play in several decks for a long time, but I understand if you would rather open up quest warrior (those epics are enough imo.)

Should i craft Genn Greymane for Even Pala and other experimental decks i want to do? I was about to craft Darius Crowley but seeing how good the Even Pala is, it made me want to craft genn. Two days ago i spent about 17k dust (the most for disenchanting all the Gadgetzan and WotOG cards) in this "Meta" cards (Some of them for the memes xD): Toki, Time-Tinker, Chameleos, Lady in White, Baku the Mooneater, Prince Keleseth, Countess Ashmore, Dragoncaller Alanna, Skull of the Man'ari, x2 Spiteful Summoner, x1 Ultimate Infestation, x1 Call to Arms, x1 Meteor, x1 Voidlord and x2 Carnivorous Cube, and I have 2400 dust remaining with which I'm going to do Darius or Genn and two more epics (Brawl and Psychic Scream). So what do you think about Genn or Darius and the cards i craft?
Just crafted Sneed's Old Shredder cause f@#$k tier lists?
He is one of my favourite legendaries. People never know how to deal with him. If I could go back and create one minion in gold, it would have been him. Well, him or Chillmaw.
