One question, was it worth it, in terms of XP, considering the winrate drop (aka XP drop) when playing decks and strategies specifically to complete achievements instead of winning games ?
I feel like I progress faster through the reward track when I don't care about achievements, and will complete half of the achievements by playing normally anyway.

No. You'll tank your MMR and many achievements can't be completed in an efficient way if you run competitive decks. (I also completed them all btw.)

Yeah, it's a shame Casual games don't count for these. I'm not sure what value there is in putting them out there as a trap, which is kind of what they are now.
I know that is quite an achievement (pun intended) as I started to try and complete all achievements since the launch of barrens (idk why I didn't understood in darkmoon that some gave xp). I find that some require a specific "non winning" deck in order to achieve it in a reasonable time and others just pure luck and maaaany tries (mostly the ones that interact with cards from your opponents like the Horde Operative one)
I'm using a reddit guide someone pasted in other forum here, bue maybe you have made your own? Any help is more than welcome.
I finished all of this expansions achievements.
If anyone has questions or needs a tip, let me know!

Trap? Achievements are completely optional, you're not forced to do any of them.
First, congrats!

That's what a trap is -- a suboptimal option you walk into voluntarily because it looks appealing.
No one forces a rat to go after the cheese.

what a coincidance! I am just done with the barrens achievements as well. (except 2 of them, I don't have Plaguemaw the Rotting and Tavish Stormpike)
