Everyone has the cards they absolutely hate. The OP cards that ruin their life and they can't wait to see the back of them.
But rarely do we ever really talk much about which cards are our favourite. Which card is simply a joy to play and makes you look forward to seeing it appear in your hand. It doesn't have to be powerful, or win you games (but it can) - it's about what the card does and why you like it.
I've been thinking about this and a thread I was writing earlier brought it to mind.
For me, that card has to be Yogg-Saron, Hope's End. For all my personal distaste for the RnG-based style of play that Hearthstone employs, this card completely epitomises it. And initially I did hate it when it first hit the scene. But that feeling has strangely flipped around. These days it's my go-to card for "fun" games where I don't have to worry about being ultra-competitive. It's all about the laughter and despair when Yogg either blesses you or destroys you.
And sometimes, he even does nothing more than face plant himself into dust. He is truly a fickle card.
A close second would probably be something like Mayor Noggenfogger. In a similar vein to Yogg, you just don't know what is going to happen next. One of the funniest gaems I ever played involved spawning this guy into the game against a Razakus Priest. There are few things in this game funnier than watching a priest's machine gun go haywire! Hahaha!
Bomb Lobber. Not because of its power, but because back when it showed up in the game, I was laser focused on getting as much gold as possible, so I played a lot of arena, where it was a good (but not great) card. Plus, when the guy comes into play, the way he says "special delivery hihihi hihi hihi" always made me giggle.
None other than Brann Bronzebeard. He’s in every one of my wild decks. I think he’s even more versatile than Bloodmage Thalnos because at 3 mana the value in amazing.
Blizzard should make a special stream lessons or youtube videos in which they explain the the only way hs should be played is with supa dupa 1000 IQ control/combo homebrewed decks and 30 minutes long match is a minimum time period that proves you're not braindead blah blah something etc.
Mine has to be Azure Drake,I loved the card since the first time I saw it... It's been almost a year since it was HOFed for being too versatile but to this day I still think it's one of the best designed cards ever.... It puts a reasonable body on the board and draws you a card that's it.... Not even close to the powerlevel of some of those broken neutral cards we have now and not even close to autoinclude.... Also its art doesn't depict some horrible pink worm or a skeletal horse but a beautiful blue Dragon so that helps too.....
I love how technical a match against Frost Lich Jaina inevitably gets, but Valeera, the Hollow will always have a special place in my heart. That, and Awaken the Makers

Bloodmage Thalnos.
Rogue and mage are 2 of my 3 favorite classes and always have a slot for this little guy.
Mine would have to be Corpsetaker. Love the art and I actually think it's a decent card in Control Paladin to stop aggro
Flamewaker...cheap spells burn!
Either Voidcaller or Sludge Belcher
Hope is an illusion.

Holy Wrath
