There's also the dilemma between Hex or Devolve... or both!
Looks like the best approach for even-Shami is a flood deck, the totems are clearly worth one mana. Maybe not in standard (the deck seems a bit random there), but in wild I think there's already enough tools for it.
Had a similar guess, but in my modest experience seems to niche and hopeful. For that purpose I think that another Dark Pact would be better, or some tech like Skulking Geist or Eater of Secrets - Kezan Mystic for those pesky secrets.
I don't want to have every cosmetic in the game, but everybody should have the option to get them if they want, and that option shouldn't consist in wasting half day or more going to another city. Is the same shit that happened with the Tyrande one, artificial exclusivity to piss off people, it cost nothing, NOTHING, to them to give this things in a reasonable way that can be archived by all the people that wants to have the stuff. Nobody complained about the Arthas and Maiev skins... or Morgl... or Liadrin... if they can give those skins in reasonables ways there's no excuse with the shitshows that they make with the others.
What kind of mental handicap has the people that defends the fuck-up non-consumer friendly stuff that game companies do? Because I doubt they are all getting paid, so there has to be something wrong in their brains for sure.
I played for years as a gnome warlock in WoW, it was one of the things that wanted the most, I would pay for it, and now they flip me the finger and put it behind a money wall AND the actual physical wall of having to go to who the fuck knows where to get it... what the fucking hell man?!
You can't treat your consumers like dogs making them jump through hoops! It would have cost them nothing to give the skin for free during Halloween and make everybody happy and it would gave them money putting it on the store, this makes no fucking sense and has no defense.
Ho, wow! The only bad card to hit in that list is Mana Wyrm, a card that your rival will probably keep on his hand. If you hit any other card is already a good deal, if you hit a card that cost 3 or more is a pretty good deal and if you hit one of the 6 cards of which there's just one copy it's an excellent deal and you are destorying that plus whatever he has to spend to take the Gnomeferatu off the board.
Just 3 bad cards to hit, Fire Fly, Corsair and Patches... and Corsair is open to discusion, because if you hit a Corsair and Patches his still in the deck...
But that's 5 cards of 30... How many times are you going to hit Fire Fly? All the time, every time, nO?
Hearthstone isn't Magic people, decks are very limited and extremely synergy dependant, losing cards without getting something in exchanges isn't a favor and can cost you the match.
Everytime that Gnomeferatu enters to the board and because her instead of drawing your truesilver champion you draw your trusty one drop... when the salt on your veins boils... you will hear the echo of a beautiful and distant crackling sound... That sound is Ben Brode's laugh...
Umbra isn't a bad card, just need some good deathrattles, she even saw some play with the early versions of Aggro Druid.
The quest where over hyped by Blizz but some of them can end seeing play sooner of later with the right support, it wouldn't be a surprise if Priest and Mage quest get strong with this new expansion.
You only have to consider the numbers behind the card, 2/3 is a tested and reliable good body for 2 manas and the effect is strong because there's more scenarios in which it will be positive than negative, "low impact card" are the ones that you tend to keep in your hand so what is on top of the deck will probably be something that has more value than the 2/3, add to that a decent deck that most likely will appear thanks to the new cheap aoe of Lock and you have an strong card.
Is like when that dude made the numbers for Yogg and people laugh at him... and then Blizz had to nerf Yogg...
The tendency is clear so far, the vocal majority of the community tends to underestimate cards and then cry a lot because they are overpowered and this has been happening since... Naxx...? Fuck, I think that even undertaker was considered a "bad card that does nothing" at some point.
As I said, the problem is that there's no need to upload 20 times the same deck but now with a fire elemental instead of a bloodlust. Ideally, the things that get to the front page should be new and interesting, not a rehash of rehash.

Uuuh... Draenei Totemcarver, I forgot about that one, was also thinking on Gormok the Impaler, but the list already seem quite tied.

Awesome deck, bring me to 15 without a single lost! ^^
But I don't get the Sacrificial Pact, changed it for an extra Defile.

I would be satisfied with 40 packs.

This thing, Gnomeferatu and Dirty Rat: Sup Bro Lock new meta!

Ok, let's see the current strongest control deck in the meta: https://tempostorm.com/hearthstone/decks/freeze-control-mage-standard-meta-snapshot-july-31-2017

Let's see Jade Druid: https://tempostorm.com/hearthstone/decks/jade-druid-standard-meta-snapshot-july-21-2017
WOW! Not a single bad card to hit and some of them will detroy the gameplan of your opponent or just wins you the game on the spot.
But those are slow decks, that doesn't counts! Let's see good old Token Chami: https://tempostorm.com/hearthstone/decks/token-shaman-standard-meta-snapshot-july-31-2017
