 Don't disenchant a good golden legendary.  Crazy talk.

So guys, quick question - Deathstalker Rexxar or Shadowreaper Anduin first?

Explanation - before most of you jump on your keyboards mentioning the obvious Priest DK because of the obvious meta decks, this question was more about the fun decks I can play with them. And normally I want to have both of the hero cards, since the Death knights in general were just a successful design - providing fun experience and being able to go in various decks.

Anyway back to my case. If you click on my collection - you will see the cards I have now and thus the decks I could create. Normally I main warlock, but when it comes to fun decks, then I choose Priest (and rogue, mage), but looking at Rexxar's hero power I also want to build zombeasts and to resurrect them back with N'Zoth with Dane's deck. When talking about Priest - I want to improve my cheap version of Le Dawg's steal priest. Maybe I would also invest some dust (in crafting the statues and maybe some AoEs) and then creating the famous Big Priest deck and improving my Awaken the Makers with Elise Starseeker deck.

So here's the problem - for now I don't have much dust, I will get the needed one after I dust the golden epics. I think, that soon after the New Year comes, I will also have the other dust needed for the other legendary. And I came here asking for your opinion, because I don't know how much satisfaction I will get from crafting the first over the other one firstly. Could some of you share their impressions having DK Rexxar and the potential fun decks I can play, while having him (inb4 the minionless hunter is neither fun, nor strong. Just a less weaker freeze shaman)?

Yeah, thanks, but like I said, I care more about the fun experience and whether or not I will keep the satisfaction after crafting him and playing with him bunch of times.

:D

I am aware, that this is more of a subjective measurement, as everyone decides this for themselves, but like I said, I just wanted to gather some impressions of people, who have played with him in fun decks. Whether or not the thrill of building zombeasts fades away with time, or the opposite, if you can't wait to start another game and then to jam those abominations onto the field.

Hi! I am here for some advice on my next crafting moves; here is my wishlist:
Spiritsinger Umbra: the last card I'm missing for Cubelock. Not a big fan of the card but looks strong in the current meta to cheese out lethal and should get stronger as other cards are released (I also play some wild)

Prince Keleseth: I don't own this dude as I don't usually play smOrc. However the card is both intresting and strong so it should be nice to own (It's also the only prince I am missing)

Master Oakhearth: now there's a card I regret not opening in my packs! The effect is so nice and I love this card; the bad thing? It seems completly not-necessary for many decks and don't own other cards that could sinergize with it for some off-meta deck but fun decks -my favourite ones to play (es: Ixlid, Fungal Lord; Dragon Hatcher; Hadronox)

Zola the Gorgon: arguably my favourite card of the expansion; I've always been a big Reno Decks player and experimented a lot in Wild with Reno Mage and stuff. I love mechanics like this (es: Maniac Soulcaster; Echo of Medivh) and even own Grumble, Worldshaker who provides a nice synergy to explore. The question is: is it worth the dust?

Kingsbane and Sonya Shadowdancer: now these cards are the good compromise between fun and competitive: the downside is that if I were to craft one I'd have to craft both. While I like Sonya a lot more than the weapon, Kingsbane seems pretty staple in most Rogue lists (the upside would be giving my The Darkness a home where to be played, even if I'd have to craft a Fal'dorei Strider as well for a total of 3.6k dust)

Deathstalker Rexxar: seems like a pretty fun cards with its own potential to explore. Would love to play this and it's the only DK I miss

Aluneth: this card is quite strong (imo almost broken), but I don't like Aggro Cheese Mage, and I don't think I'm playing that again (I played enough of it when it was called "Tempo Mage"). Still, the card is strong and would be nice to own (former Mage main here)

Ixlid, Fungal Lord, Hadronox, Awaken the Giants: pretty fun cards with intresting mechanics to explore, the quest being the most troll one out of the three. The problem with these cards is that the dust investment would involve more then one legendary and so take quite a bit amount of time: probably not worth it.

The Last Kaleidosaur: this one is kinda troll as well, but I own Lynessa Sunsorrow and so would like to put her at use and the quest seems fun; more of an honorable mention thou.

_______________________________________________________________________
My last but arguably most important question: do I keep Golden The Darkness? I know it's kinda a Meme one but I love golden legendaries in general and this one looks pretty sick: I've been trying to use it in Wild Mill Rogue decks and Fatigue Warrior, but King Togwaggle performs better in both, would love to try the standard Rogue version that runs it (even if tier 2.5 or whatever) but I miss 3.6k dust worth of value to craft that and as you can see I have quite the big wishlist being into collectionism (kinda). Opinions?

Thanks for your time and sorry for the long read

I think the Hunter DK isn't as terrible as the stats suggest.
Hunter doesn't really have late game, so the low winrate when played probably has a lot to do with the game already been lost when you play DK.
Also, when you are winning the game turn 6 due to smorcing, there is no point in playing him which might also drop the winrate when played a bit.

I consider him more an insurance policy that might pay out should things go wrong when looking at those stats.
Sure you often won't get what you need and several great options like lifesteal just are so very expensive to play it is hard to make it work.

I'm very much enjoying my DK, he's part of my N'zoth wild hunter i play a lot and he is also part of my quest hunter i like to use for fun every now and then.

I also have priest DK, but i rarely play it as i don't enjoy playing razakus as much.
Just think its boring.

 Prince Keleseth is played in tempo decks of almost every class now, and is probably the strongest card on your list.

If you like cubelock, Spiritsinger Umbra is indeed a well performing staple in that archetype, enabling some disgusting swing turns. I would go absolutely go for one of the 2 first, especially if you don't like agressive mage decks.

Once you reset the pitytimer start saving for the upcoming expansion (soon?), I think golden The Darkness is safe dust. He is just really, really slow, and a 20-20 is usually not game winning.

 

 

Prince Keleseth is still pretty nuts. In several decks like Tempo Rogue, if you pull him on two you effectively win the game, and he's in quite a few lists, so I'd say he's one of the better crafts right now.

If you already have core cards for the most of decks, I think is worth it to craft for sure.

I know this is most for legendary cards, but for a dragon deck is more important to have Twilight Acolyte or Twilight Guardian? I'm lacking dust for both

Good question.

I would personally point to Twilight Acolyte: this you can use in both standard and wild formats + this one enables some combos (pain, cabal) + Aldor Peacekeeper was used in every control and mid-rangy paladin deck, slowing down the opponent tremendously. This one does the same thing, with the price of you making a dragon themed deck, but it gets the buff of that minion.

Then again, the Twilight Guardian was always a solid 4*-drop, which the priest player always wants to play on curve. Not just against aggro decks, but also as a way to slowly snowball with its board.

I would say - ask for more opinions.

Please, write analogical article about epic cards. It's important to know, wich of them are worth crafting.
