I think it would be dope to play a full golden deck, just make sure it's one you REALLY like, because for that much investment, you better play it a lot LoL
I only craft golden copies of legendaries I like, with a few exceptions. If the card art is particularly good I’ll craft a gold of it if I’m gonna use it.
Only if I was a heavy whale who got all other cards or at least all other decent cards and will be able to do so for the following expansions too.
So technically yes, practically hell no.
That said I do like "value" goldens, i.e. ones that summon things or create other cards. Those are more likely to stick around in my collection for a while but ultimately goldens get DE first when the dust is low.
Also I played a few "all basic goldens" decks for the lulz. I bet my opponents expected a whale when they saw the golden coin but it was actually a 100% free deck :P Ofc that was back when it was possible to hang out at rank 19 and play silly decks and win. Nowadays I think such a deck would get crushed into the dust at Silver 10.

I love golden cards that create other cards. More goldens for the prices of one. I also miss the days where silly decks could win at noob ranks but those days died out somewhere around Whispers of the Old Gods.

This is so untrue. Meme decks could never win anything unless RNG saved them, but decent homebrew decks can still get you to legend to this day. "decent" meaning it has a clear and refined win condition and isn't weak to every meta deck.
I've spent hundreds of $ on cosmetics. If you are sleeping on money you could do it but it doesn't matter in the end. Eventually you will either quit the game or its going to end its life at some point.
I fell for this trap a while ago and in the course of time i do regret making all my decks golden. I had a goal to make at least 2 golden decks for each class. Unfortunately i ended up spending around 3k $ and not having what i wanted. Pack opening rng fucked me over. I really cared becuse with games like warcraft, starcraft and diablo blizzard was like a family to me. However, several years after Hearthstone was released I realized i was being stupid to give money to this joke of a company once blizzard started to fuck it's community all the way and not giving shit about people (for example the Hong Kong incident or banning Savjz or even globalize the economy making packs for prices not worth to buy in some countries being too expensive due to currency issues) - this is a middle finger to all who pay and play.
These few examples got me thinking more about it and i came to the conclusion that games are pure business nowadays. Every dime spent on this game goes to Bobby Kotic's pocket or whoever the fuck is running this company. Probably people who work on this game are not being paid enough. Moreover, making statements that community is most important is just marketing bullshit only to grab newcomers and their wallets. This game and other games Blizz will realease in the future will not be full games and we have to keep that in mind.
If you really want to make golden decks you can do it - its your choice(i'd suggest you do something which will be similar in all classes like a reno-deck type). It's cool when people add you just to say that your golden deck is amazing and looks incredible but it's JUST a cosmetic and doesn't do much. Overall this game won't be out there forever and at some point it's gonna die. It's like investing in Titanic - you know where this is going.
I know it looks nice but DON'T DO IT PEOPLE. Don't make this mistake.
Last golden card I crafted was zephrys, and I will not do it again. I keep golden cards only if I don't have the normal version.
If you have enough dust to craft a golden deck you have enough dust to craft important epic and legendary cards for many years to come. You will eventually stop playing rush warrior, and even if you don't, your deck will be refined, adapted to new metas, rotated, powercreeped, and many of the golden cards you crafted will end up sitting in your collection, because of the natural evolution of the game.
I once crafted all the golden shaman cards back in TGT, even adventure cards. I loved shaman gameplay, I love shaman aesthetic. Most of them have been powercreeped out of existence or have neer been playable despite the amazing animations (Eternal Sentinel, Elemental Destruction, rumbling elemental...), some of them have been added for free in the core set and made the golden craft completely wasted, and some of the stronger ones that I still use like Tunnel Trogg or Maelstrom Portal I just don't care anymore that I have them in gold, especially the adventure cards that I already paid money to have in non-golden.
If I hadn't done that, I would be sitting on an incredibly large pile of dust, or I could have all epics and legendaries from all expansions, instead of having to make choices and being unable to fully experiment with all the new cards in the launch season.
I originally paid money so i wouldn't be forced to play hours every day to keep up with the new releases. But the golden demons got to me and now I'm like the F2P players, I have to play a lot, my collection is missing key cards, except I'm not P2W because I spent (many) hundreds of dollars in packs that don't have the duplicate protection, and threw all the value away in cosmetics.
If I knew, this day when I decided to craft the golden shaman collection, that I would still be playing the game and pre-ordering expansions 5 years later, and that duplicate protection would eventually exist, I would have made a different choice, because ultimately, experimenting with new and old cards in the only reason I still play this game.
You can always watch golden animations on Hearthpwn and try to find the best ones, there's really no difference than seeing them in your in-game hand or collection.
In total, there are maybe 5 golden cards I don't regret crafting.
Hearthstone taught me adulthood the hard way I guess.
This is, of course, only my opinion, my experience, I understand if anyone feels different.
Just make a secondary account and disenchant all non-golden cards when you get them. Eventually you will get enough to make your deck. I have done this over 3 alt accounts through the last couple years for 17 all golden decks.
ALL FOR FREE ... it's prob even easier now since the reward path seems to be giving more gold than the old rewards.
craft it all diamond or gtfo.
all golden if it makes you happy.
if your decks arent all golden , im not sure what your doing with your life tbh

I want only one golden Common, Rare and Epic, so no, I would not.

I feel you man - did the same
The only golden card I crafted was golden Whizbang and I'm not disappointed
My custom expansion: Game of Thrones

Golden cards are such a scam. Why stop there? Why not craft all your decks golden and mail Blizzard $1,000 every month on top of that?

Would I craft cards I already have to get Golden copies?
No.
Would I spend good money on getting Golden Tickets to upgrade cards to their Golden form?
Yes.
