Kazakus decks tend to be much more expensive, while I had 0 problems crafting Jade decks for all classes after crafting Aya. Still, Kazakus is the best designed card of the set, no contest.

Remember playing Control Shaman with Reincarnate shenanigans? No? It was fun, here's a refresher!
My Kazakus Reno Mage ft. Inkmaster Solia is very nice, being able to combo out your 10 cost potion with Solia is insane. What others in the thread said though, Jade Golem mechanic is broken and your deck will be too slow to outpace that archetype. Play this game for fun however, don't craft based on what's appearing to be T1. Just have fun with it
mixed, it sure feels like the weakest of the three gangs, some games feel like you don't need Reno, in other games you feel Reno is the only thing that makes the decks work and in another portion of the games you just feel that not even Reno can save you from your opponent's Minions (looking at you Golems and pirates).
Reno rotates in spring and Reno decks are really fun, Kazakus is also not the strongest legendary and definitely not a must craft ,but his fun factor is there, i crafted him and i don't regret it, so if you want to actually play them this might be the best moment to do that.
Jade golem druid is an autoloss, there's just nothing you can do to outvalue them - and forget about winning in fatigue, impossible.
I've been doing decent against them with my Reno Mage. Being able to cheat out a 10 mana potion from Kazzakus with Ink Master Soilia helps a lot. I've also thrown in Pollymorph: Boar as an extra way to deal with the Golem Swarm.
nzoth renolock is fun for me. Focus on lots of board clear and hard removals. Nzoth, Kaz, and Jaraxus can summon a board and the end. I won vs Dragon Priest, Reno Mage, Taunt Warrior and 3 Hunters in a row lolz. Only loss to Druid Jade deck but that a close game.
MVP ? Kaz , but sometimes, the 3 drop Kabal that discover tri class card. She was so effective that I kick out Farseer and the new 5-5 imp for her. You can find a lot of good hard removal from Priest, Board clear from Mage and more board clear and PO from warlock. Really Won me some games
m playing Reno Kazakus Tempo Face Mage and after hitting rank 7 I discovered I don't have Reno in the deck. But it is great and fun. Just have problems with pirate warriors and Hunters.
I agree, however and sadly, that when meta settles down Kabal will be the weakest. I wanted to add Inkamster Solia to the deck but it would be waste of dust.
I play this crazy Reno-Dragon-Shadowform-Decks and it performs very well. But I would say against a strong Jade Golem Deck, it has no chance, like every Control-Deck. Nevertheless try this Deck out, I have a Win-Rate about 60 or 65%.
Best of the cards I've swapped into the Reno Mage I was playing. There's no need for Elise until the meta stabilizes, so it's an easy 4 drop swap. Inkmaster hasn't been super great; but I haven't gotten to combo with Cabalist's Tome, which I think is the card it has best value with. Volcanic Potion is decent as well; took out Arcane Explosion but I think it may want both.
I'm going with my favourite class - mage. It's not final form, I'm still making some replacements but I'm having good results with it and it's so fun but queit difficult to play. It's not "go on curve - gg", you have to make a lot of small decisions and different matches have different win conditions.
Reno was my favorite archetype before the expansion, so I was happy that it got some love in MSoG.
I've built a Reno Mage and Reno/C'Thun/Shadowform Priest so far. I got Raza in a pack, and crafted Kazakus and Solia. So far, they are tons of fun. I don't expect it to be a ladder climbing machine, but it's nice to play a deck that is unique.

Hey there!
Still haven't crafted Kazakus (torn between him and Aya), but really like the archetype!
I would like to know your opinions and sucess with them! What are your results so far?
It depends on what other cards you own.
Kazakus decks tend to be much more expensive, while I had 0 problems crafting Jade decks for all classes after crafting Aya.

My Reno Priest is working very nicely atleast. Only have Raza in it and no Kazakus though i dont own him.
My custom cards thread here (53 cards)
My results are mixed because my decks aren't refined, but I can tell you one thing for sure, I'm having a lot of fun!
My custom cards thread here (53 cards)
Craft Reno if you want to participate in the game .
Craft Aya if you want to just vomit cards out of your hand on curve while watching TV.
Reno is solid but gets wrecked by golem.
I play this Reno deck:
and after a few games I can say that Kazakus is one of the mvp's. I love the card.
Jade druid is cancer against my reno priest. I just can't deal those big jade golems. Against other decks is working well.

It's really weak imo I now feel bad I crafted kaz
