I got lucky just now and got golden Lord Jaraxxus from pack. Should i disenchant him or regular version, as i already have it?

A bit of context, i'm f2p player since beta, got pretty decent card collection by disenchanting all golden cards and unplayable or rarely used cards like Ice Rager, Far Sight, well you got the idea.

I have golden warlock as i played handlock quite a lot, like year ago. Every time i play Lord Jaraxxus i'm like: JARAXXUS JARAXXUS YOU FACE JARAXXUS, EREDAR LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION... basically i start spam greetings. One does not simply play Jaraxxus and not spam YOU FACE JARAXXUS. I'm not considering it as bm, its just how awesome card is.

This is my 3rd golden legendary, the previous two (Millhouse Manastorm and Mekgineer Thermaplugg) i disenchanted without regrets. But man, its Jaraxxus we're talking about here... i might regret that later.

As for crafting options, my eyes currently set on three legendaries i miss. Harrison Jones for my CW (well it can be overall useful card, not just in cw), Malygos for crazy combo-spell decks i wanted to try for long time and Chillmaw for fancy dragon decks (Priest and maybe warrior).

Should i disenchant golden and craft any of these three? Or disenchant regular and keep saving dust? Any opinion welcomed.

If you like it, keep it. Chances of getting it again are extremely low and crafting is expensive. You will get Harrison or Malygos in time, either by opening them directly or crafting them. The game is about fun and if you have fun playing Jaraxxus, why not play it golden right?

Crafting/disenchanting questions belong in the Card Discussion forum.

i would probably dust it since you have the regular.

havent a gold legendary just so how lucky you are when opening packs, it really does nothing for gameplay..... i probably dust it for cards that is actually needed.

I kept a golden Tirion despite pulling a non golden one. Sometimes I regret not getting the free legendary but most of the time I'm happy about my decision. 

I would DE the golden since you have the regular one. The golden one will be more beneficial as dust. I would also go for Harrison Jones, great for all control decks, not just CW.

Ehhh. Problem is you'll be kicking yourself if you later get the legendary you deconstructed the golden Lord Jaraxxus for. Normally, I don't put much stock in golden legendaries. If you only care about getting the cards you want/need and gold is completely irrelevant then deconstruct it. Personally, I would recommend Malygos for any spell deck out of the alternative options you gave. But if it's a really cool golden like Jaraxxuss and you care even a little, you should probably keep it because you likely won't get it again and you sure as heck shouldn't be crafting it. It seems like you care enough from that post.

Decided to play my handlock with new golden Jaraxxus - lost a couple ranks on ladder... aggro cancer is strong there. Lost like 8 games in a row without even chance to play Jaraxxus. Facetards, mechmagetards, zoo, secret canceradins, even face rogue... what the hell... i'm going back in arena. Probably will de Jaraxxus as well. Whats the point in golden J when i'm at 10 health by turn 5 lol.

You said that you're F2P, so dust it.

I would keep both if I wanted to get the full collection. Other than that Malygos is not  worth crafting, Harrison is OK but not great and I'm still not sure/convinced about Chillmaw.

There are a few legendaries that I would really want to keep the golden version of.  Jara is one of them.  Pretty much anything that summons adds or changes your hero or gives you a weapon, etc are cool as goldens because all those additional things are also golden.

But really, it's up to you and your collection.  If you really want to play some deck and it requires a certain legendary (and you don't have even close to enough dust to craft that card), then it might be worth it.  It is all just aesthetics. 

Golden Lord jaraxus is second most balling card (next to golden majorhomo since you can become golden ragnaros).

Also DE in general is crazy bad value as over time youll end up packing the cards you disenchanted for to begin with

I dont know man i once disenchanted a gold boom when i had a normal one as well to craft another legendary, and i totally regret that boom is a staple and golden wouldve been sick.

I look at Jaraxxus the same way these days with as much as he is played. Id keep it. Golden Jaraxxus is sick!!!! UNLESS THERES ONE LEGENDARY YOU REALLY NEED AND CANT BE PATIENT FOR.

And like the one person said you get the golden everything with jaraxxus its not like hes just a card you throw down, your hero is golden, your weapon too i think? Your infernals. Thats pretty rad.

This^, i crafted 3 Legendaries in the space of a week, and in less than 2 weeks i got the same 3 legendaries and i wanted to uninstall. What makes it worse is that i actually got 1 of those crafted legendaries again just yesterday. So i wasted 4200 dust to craft Justicar Trueheart, Chillmaw and Bloodmage Thalnos and ended up getting 2 Bloodmage Thalnos a mere 2-5 weeks later.

So what am saying is if u commonly play certain legendaries i would vote that u keep the golden and save dust for non golden as once u get majority of the cards, ur next project will be to get the most played ones golden AND THATS A PRETTY HUGE PROJECT! especially when it concerns legendaries.

"Are you crazy?! It is GOLDEN JARAXXUS ffs, you can't just disenchant it! DE regular version."

Couldn't have said it better myself.  Follow the poll results!!!!!!!!

You would consider dusting a golden Jaraxxus..... you don't deserve a golden Jaraxxus

Don't ever DE golden for non golden cards, you lose 1600 dust.
