So with the next expac being announced and rotation coming, I figured this would be a good time to say goodbye to Year of the Griffin. What mess that year was, amirite? Still, it could be fun to list out some of our most and least favorites from those three sets. Below are my picks for the cards that I liked to use the most and disliked seeing the most in no particular order, which is not to say the best or worst cards. Just my personal feelings; don't hurt me!
Forged in the Barrens!
Woo!:
Lilypad Lurker
Not going to lie, some of these picks will be chosen based on art and I love the way this card looks. Plus, the elemental tribe is probably my favorite with the whole chaining turn thing.
Xyrella
Everyone's favorite waifu of the year's reoccurring characters! Plus healing up and clearing the board just makes me feel warm and fuzzy, which is something we might see again on this list...
Primal Dungeoneer
What two Shaman cards!? Yeah, I was playing a lot of shaman at the time, and this card was a godsend. Shaman had some notoriously bad card draw, and this let me have a lot of fun with my elementals.
Boo!:
Far Watch Post
Very few cards make me go "Man, my opponent hates fun." as much as this one. Objectively, it's not that annoying beyond the feelsbadman.
Refreshing Spring Water
Admittedly, this card stopped being annoying once we were finally free from casino mage, but it was still draw cards for free. Boo.
Tamsin Roame
I wasn't sure if I was going to include her, since it was mainly cards used with her that felt like the problem. But I have had many people abusing her in duels lately, so here she is.
Honorable Mention: Mutanus the Devourer
Like, I was glad this card existed, but I would have been happier if it didn't feel like it was necessary for a card like this to exist. Plus I blame this card for Patchwerk becoming a thing.

United in Stormwind!
Woo! (AKA, tradable is a good mechanic):
Shard of the Naaru
Is it really powercreep if Mass Dispel sucks? One mana to tell your opponent's minions to shut the hell up would only be better if it squelched the hero as well.
City Tax
"All are equal under the light!" + "Bet you can't do this!" + this card = No enemies and full health. But hey, your imps were really cool, sorry about that.
Rustrot Viper
Because sometimes other people play paladin and they need to be punished. Don't even feel bad when it's played against me. Just like: that's fair.
Boo! (This was going to be three quests...):
Ignite
Why did mage need an infinitely reusable kill spell when they have so much card draw? Just... ugh.
Runed Mithril Rod
Were you going to pay for all those cards you drew? No? Okay then...
Mr. Smite
GO F*** YOURSELF!
(DIS)Honorable Mention: All the quests.
Okay, some of them weren't that bad. I don't think pally quest ever hurt anyone! But my bottom three were going to be mage, warlock and warrior quest, and I can see a lot of people wanting to add hunter, priest or shaman depending on their personal saltiness. Seriously, I think each one was nerfed at some point or another. Rest is piss.

Fractured in Alterac!
Woo!:
Lightforged Cariel
Look, weapon removal is a thing, guys. Just use it if it's that much a problem, geez! Sidenote, I am going to miss the callouts the heroes have once they rotate.
Spirit Guide
I mentioned that some cards have art that just appeal to me, and this is another one. Plus I like the tutor effect more than if it was just draw two spell.
Sleetbreaker
Was going to be this the Bru'kan hero, and I already picked Cariel on this list. Still, I love windchill as it's my ideal cantrip and this card give me one with a body attached. Just an easy pick and can save your ass on a top deck.
Boo!:
Wildheart Guff
...ugh.
Tamsin's Phylactery
Again, this card would have been fine if it wasn't for awful OTK decks. Coincidentally, Cyanide would be delicious for sweetener if it didn't kill me.
Snowfall Graveyard
What's with this set and enabling deathrattle based OTKs?
Honorable Mention: Drek'Thar and Vanndar Stormpike
I guess that honor farm event was alright. Could have been better, but it gave free legendaries so...

Anyways! That's it for me, what about you? Got opinions, of course you do! I did six or more cards for each, but feel free to just through out any particulars that you will miss or be happy to see leave. Or if you just want to tell me that I am dumb or wrong, that works too. I've always wanted to do one of these lists, but was too lazy to bother.
