Well i will miss a lot from ungoro (expecially elise). That was a great expansion. I will also miss Zola and the Runespear (not a good card but lovely ...).
Blood Razor, Scourgelord Garrosh, Rotface. Self-damage warrior was one of my favourite decks to come out of KoFT, and I'm very sad that it got little support afterwards, save a few cards like Redband Wasp.
I will miss so many cards from the year of the mammoth, I almost want to cry. That's why I won't start typing all of them now. It was fun playing all of them and I was shivering every time an opponent played them against me. But at the end, it was fun. A lot.
But the card that I am going to miss the most is the Cube. He enabled so many other cards and cheating big minions or getting extra resources, that it was a pleasure to play him every single time. The thing that he was a neutral also allowed me to try him in a variety of classes with different win conditions.

Wild isn't such a good option for those who started only in the recent 1 year or so since their collection and current standard decks can't really deal with all the nonsense decks one can run into, so I think it's quite understandable that these cards will sort of disappear for some players.

I love garrosh. Imo he's one of the most balanced death knights. Also dead man's hand. I loved playing fat warrior during kft - my win-rate was awful, but those grindy wins were oh so sweet :)
The great thing about Scourgelord Garrosh is that he's no infinite value generator like Rexxar, Jaina or Gul'Dan, and that his hero power is not a straight upgrade like Uther or Malfurion. Garrosh and Thrall were unique in that you couldn't just jam them on the board and improve your position in the game, but instead you always needed to weigh up the pros and cons of changing your hero power. DMH Warrior was an insane deck, which required true mastery of the game to win with. Watching Trump play it are some of my favourite videos of his.

this was also a card i really enjoyed, specially that it had different uses and that all classes could use it, i never crafted it in the beginning cause i associated it when cube lock just started in the meta and hated facing it, therfore i hated it only for a little while until i could craft it ;)
I'm gonna be missing Valeera the Hollow a lot, card enabled some pretty cool stuff but I don't think it was ever oppressive (yeah, I mostly play Rogue).
Defile for sure. Probably my crowning moment in the time I've played this game was a Godfrey and defile combo which cleared 2 walls of Hadronox and taunts, leading the druid player to quit. Having been pretty much down and out, I was able to do about 80% of the math before roping out and just went for it.
That card has led to so many great clears and for me, is just a brilliant card. Using a minion or two of your own to attack and bring the board to just the right numbers to allow you to clear it. Especially satisfying when you account for things like divine shield and deathrattle spawns etc.
I tried, but could never quite get this one to work.
Too bad; it is fun, but even with Lyra just not quite enough.
There was this list which centered around a combo with Test Subject, Seance, Topsy Turvy and Radiant Elemental to basically fill your board with 5/5 dragons from Dragon Soul each turn. Maybe check it out in the last few hours of Year of the Raven :)
Hey guys
just wanted your guys opinions in terms of which cards you guys will miss in the rotating sets, any specific ones or a few & ones from new expansion.
