I'm really interested in Control Warrior, but I currently only have Sylvanas, Dr. Boom and Justicar Trueheart (and Naxx, BRM and other non-CW legendaries). What should be the crafting order in terms of importance out of the following: Alexstraza, Ysera, Grommash Hellscream, Varian Wrynn, Ragnaros (really iffy about this guy, doesn't look THAT good), Harrison Jones and Baron Geddon? Sitting on a stack of dust and planning ahead is a good idea!

Grom is damn near essential for traditional CW. He's your finisher. Alex is his tango partner. She allows you to focus on the board while you gather your combo pieces, and then nuke your foes health to 15. Ysera, Varian, and Rags are all fine legendaries. Pick you flavor and insert 'em in your deck. HJ and BG and TDK are all tech cards. You include them when you are facing a meta they are strong against. Lots of weapons in the meta? Harrison is your boy. Lots of taunts? TDK.
I see Ysera very high on these lists, but I've been doing fine without it. (though I really want it one day)
I'd say Grommash Hellscream and Alexstrasza are absolutely essential. They increase your winrate by so much and give you a fighting chance against priests. But I'd also include Baron Geddon in that list. I wouldn't have crafted it so soon, but I got it in a pack, and it is insane how much more reliable it makes your deck. It outright counters some decks. I can't tell you how many times a desperate zoolock player slammed his Doomguard into my Baron Geddon. (after it alrady killed his board, of course)
When I just started with control warrior and only had Ragnaros the Firelord out of a pack, I used to play 2x Shade of Naxxramas and 2XFaceless Manipulator I didn't win as much, but it was actually more fun than normal control warrior if I remember correctly. It also did MUCH better against priests. But they didn't have Lightbomb then.
Hi everyone,

Thanks all!
