Oh, there's a bunch of them for me:

Selfless Hero,Infest, Protect the King!, Ethereal Peddler, Avian Watcher, Dispatch Kodo, Manic Soulcaster (after Reno rotation she became completely useless), Mana Geode (apparently the only bad priest from Gadgetzan), Lotus Assassin

 

 oh i really wish ethereal peddler got some shine. i've played a fair amount of burgle rogue  and it's a really fun deck. peddler enables so many wacky combos. it really felt like it was one or two slots away from being a like...well, tier 3 deck, but still something you could play on ladder.

I got some good mileage from Halazeal in Malygos Shaman, so I wouldn't say it was bad...Don Han'Cho tho...

Yeah, and now we have Leyline Manipulator, that can repeat Peddler's destiny. But at least Ethereal Peddler was pretty good in dual class arena)

P.S. Did you run Lilian Voss in your deck? Or she's not worth it?

 The biggest forced archetype fail ever is Freeze Shaman.... 

Beast druid was not a failed forced archetype, it's not the best but not the worst 

Menagerie Warden saw some play with Stranglethorn Tiger and Tyrantus

Druid was always playable, unlike Shaman and Beast Druid is way better than Freeze Shaman, which is so bad, that you have to ask yourself wth was Blizzard thinking.... (And Discard Warlock was also worse, considering the laughable state of Warlock at that time....)

Menagerie Magician and Zoobot. So wanted to multi-tribe decks to be a thing. Alas...

I have actually used Master of Evolution in my Evo Shaman deck quite a lot (admittedly not Tier 1, but I'm just naturally attracted to less common/popular decks - which is also why I usually stick around Rank 10). I also have one copy of Menagerie Warden in my Jungle Druid to copy the 12/12 legendary dinosaur, which has won me multiple games against control/jade decks.

But otherwise I agree and especially agree with the sentiment in the OP. Such wasted potential - esp. the Grimy Goons imho :-/ An honourable mention for me is the hunter quest (although I know that isn't rotating out).

My bad, was mostly thinking of the time when Blizzard printed Lakkari Sacrifice and Blood-Queen Lana'thel. (Of course I got both of them....)

Selfless Hero,Infest, Protect the King! (just worse version of Unleash the Hounds), Ethereal Peddler, Avian Watcher, Dispatch Kodo, Manic Soulcaster (after Reno rotation she became completely useless), Mana Geode (apparently the only bad priest card from Gadgetzan), Lotus Assassin

The problem with Twilight Darkmender is how awful it was compared to Ancient Shieldbearer

Twilight Darkmender is amazing in C'Thun Priest. Unfortunately, the deck never really took off, but I had a lot of fun playing C'Thun Priest when WotOG first came out. I really wish the entire C'Thun Priest archetype did better, although Priest in general wasn't very good at the time.

I would also like to give a mention to Hallazeal the Ascended. It's a really cool card. A little bit situational, but when it works, it can literally win you the game and its effect is SO satisfying to pull off. I'm sad that it didn't see that much play.

at least half of these cards you mentioned are great cards in arena and we will miss them... :(

 You aren't the only one. I kind of wish for that crappy 2/2 beast too so I could have the full set, but allas I was not that unlucky
