Murlocs and Rogues seem to be wrecking me the most, though I just got annihilated by a demon warlock who played Void Analyst straight up, and was fortunate enough to have 2 doubling imps in his hand (out of four cards) when I killed it. That was brutally fast.
Try to make yourself wait a couple of weeks. Play some arena games for the fun and the potential gold farm (as well as the packs you will open). Two weeks are basicaly enough after a new expansion launch to see how the meta goes. It will surely change but everyone will have a more clear picture of what is useful and what seems not. I have made the mistake in Boomsday to craft from day 0 and actualy i regret it still.

Believe in potential; the multiverse blesses some beings with extraordinary traits, with the potential to do—to be—great things.
I'm a warrior and rogue player and i made a mage deck this expansion because of kalecgos, i think it's that good, i agree with the other guy about "summoner mage" being a big deal in coming weeks
I'm predicting the biggest bust to be Rafaam. As a win condition for control he seems terrible. A bunch of random legendaries aren't going to win you the game unless you get really lucky. The only thing he's good for is taunt and removing bombs.
Maybe we'll see a solid zoo build eventually and he will be useful for increasing value after you run out of steam. If not though, I think people will regret crafting him this expansion.
Don't worry though, Warlock will probably be back to its usually high power level within a few expansions and he will certainly be good then.
I think Catrina is a safe craft if you like the archetype it goes into. The same goes for Kalecgos. But we don´t know if the archetypes are good yet, so it is better to wait, unless you really like those decks and want them no matter what.
Something to keep in mind is that if you craft a legendary, you can no longer get it in a pack. This goes for all cards obv. So crafting anything is a net loss in value from future packs. And you probably will be opening a bunch of packs still, from the quests, the adventure and maybe an arena run or two.
Right now? None. But that didn't stop me crafting Khadgar Day One because I really wanted to try Summoning Mage. And having opened a Golden Kalecgos didn't exactly hurt my plans either.. 🤔
Stalladris is a no-brainer, he'll be in just about every Druid deck that runs even a single cheap choose 1 spell (and there are certainly more to come)
outside of that he's just a great 2-drop in general, which Druid really appreciates
Arch-Villain Rafaam is also safe if onlny for the fun factor. Can't imagine a single Warlock deck that wouldn't want to run this (outside of combo variants)
I would advise against crafting Boom, just because if Bomb Warrior is too strong they might nerf it and I can guarantee you that Boom won't be their first target (think back to Shudderwock). HOld on to your Wrenchcaliburs and don't come complaining to me when the deck no longer works after the changed it's effect to a single battlecry
Archivist Ellie and Blastmaster Boom are very safe for the exact same reason.
Rafaam works better than the Archivist, but only if you feel like playing Warlock.

Enjoying Americans winning in the Olympics is forbidden because it is political. A 14 plus page discussion of state-sponsored lawsuits against a multi-national corporation based on harassment, discrimination, and wrongful death allegations is apparently not political enough to raise an issue.
Right now only stalladris is a safe craft. He will be played in every druid dreck and token druid is pretty good and has a lot of potential. Some players already managed to reach top legend with it and i find it very strong, much stronger than murloc shaman or secret paladin.
I wouldn't recommend crafting Stalladris, the meta is always aggro in the early days of the expansion, more than likely your token druid will be invalidated in 1-2 weeks.

That's a bold statement. He seems mediocre at best. The amount of Choose One cards is so limited now, and the effects are seldom any that you'd actually want to have a copy of tbh. I wouldn't craft him either.
I can't really say. if you are like me, and love to play shaman, then Swampqueen Hagatha, or maybe if priest is your thing, than Madame Lazul. or maybe if you happen to have most of the pieces for bomb warrior, then Blastmaster Boom. or maybe you like wild. then it is a completely different story.
I voted arch-villain refaam because he seems like he will be good in most warlocks, but if you dont like warlock, than dont craft him.
also I would like to note that blastmaster boom might not be the safest craft. boom warrior is pretty popular right now, but it will likely worse as other decks start to emerge.

Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.

This token druid has way more reload. How many wide boards can someone possibly remove? The twinspell is a great board refill that will keep the pressure.
I'm really enjoying Spell Hunter just now.

Here's the deck if you want to check it out:

Those who are given more in life, must not cling to it, but risk it all at every moment!

I tried having fun once. It was awful.

What do you think about Archivist Elysiana?

all of the neutral legendarys goes into specefic deck none of them are like Zilliax who can fit into wide number of decks
as for classes it really depend on player but so far i recommend crafting Arch-Villain Rafaam for anyone like e who play warlock

I can second this, as it is the most useful legendary a player can have especially a F2P player
Craft Jepetto Joybuzz for the entrance animation.
I second this!
