I used to play 2 headed giant on mtgo and it was my favorite format honestly.

First of all, your anecdotal experience highlights the issue of the Discover mechanic and Brann Bronzebeard's double battle-cry effect which isn't necessarily something that can be attributed only to Death Knights. Brann Bronzebeard has been an underlying issue in Standard for quite some time such as in combination with Sire Denathrius and disruption cards like Mutanus. Like you said, the card is really good IF you manage to get Vampiric Blood from School Teacher and use Brann along with it but so are the aforementioned cards that actually serve as a win condition.
Secondly, if you want to compare the health gain then we can look at Chitinous Plating for Druid that also came in the same expansion (March of the Lich King). For the same cost of two mana, you can get four armor instantly then you gain four more armor at the start of your next turn. That is literally eight armor gained for the same mana cost and without any conditions needing to be met like the three corpses for Vampiric Blood which gains you 10 more maximum health points and a draw if met. So far, it doesn't sound much different. In fact, I'll even say that Vampiric Blood is basically Shield Block that gives you five more armor.
Thirdly, the Health and Armor mechanic are different. Your Hero's Health is capped at a number which has been 30 for most of the time I played Hearthstone. Prince Renathal used to make this starting health at 40 and now at 35. Let's say that I'm playing as a non-Renathal Priest and I'm at 29 health. I use my hero power to restore two health to myself. It would restore me to 30 health since the max health is capped at 30 and that extra one health is "wasted". Armor on the other hand has no limit. I don't know if you heard of some meme-y Druid decks but there is such a deck called Linebacker Druid. Basically this deck allowed you to gain over 1000 armor if executed in time. More maximum health is not as bad in comparison especially if people were able to deal with 40 health players using Prince Renathal.
Like I said before, I agree with you that Death Knight would have been ridiculously strong in Hearthstone if we were still playing a Control meta. But now Death Knight is one of the more tamer classes in the current meta since it currently has no access to insane mana cheating that lets some decks do early combos. Maybe we'll see DK being an issue once the sets rotate out but for now, it's just a fun and cool class.

it looks good on neutrals too!

Shockspitter still needs a nerf to deal damage to minions only. Make Brann a battlecry or HoF him

The right move would've been making Raid the Docks based on mana spent instead of pirates played

How is this 3 week conversation still going.

I want to keep this short as simple.
I started hearthstone at Blackrock mountain, i died to patrion warrior and quited.... and than came back after few months when grand tournament was released.
And after many tries, failures, and grinds, i got to legend while seeing mech mage to mill rogues to cubelock.
Sevasmios from hearthpwn helped me, he suggested decks, noticed my failures and thought me how to play better, without it, i would be stuck in loop in a children's card game.
but now, im done for ladder grinding forever, i dont care what people play, whats meta and whats not, its over forever.
Got it done before new year.
also.
Happy new year!

Im trying to get the legendary card back.
I don't care about the extra pack, but i have kept seeing people who already have it in diamond 5.
I have played this game for since black rock mountain, i have never hit legend and i don't want to humiliate myself by using these brain dead net decks to receive the achievement.. 7 years of meta decks, 7 years of trying to have fun, 7 bloody years.
I want to finally end it, i get the legendary card back and that will be the end of the grinding forever.

im saying that the pirate warrior requires less rng when the deck is soo emptyly simple and there is soo much tutoring from each card interaction, you dingus.
if you have bad start, lets say as rogue, you automatically are screwed and have less odds of winning, if pirate warrior has a bad start, it gets easily fixed within 1 turn because you get a weapon, from your quest and cheap piraties ahoi.

I believe you can make optimal decks. its just that the decks that are going, again, are the same.
You copy deck from internet and than go to ladder.
if i see hunter, i bet my left testicle, he is going to have a baku granting upgraded hero power and than quest appears.

i been going ham in ladder and its soo much worse then i ever could have thought.
First there were allot of shamans in low ranks and priests but the more i climbed to diamond 5, those decks slowly dissabeared and were replaced with rogues and paladins, the more i kept going to diamond 5 and got there, it has been net deck after net deck after net deck.
its like, Baku hunter, quest hunter, secret hunter, buff paladins, and soooo many and i mean the only warrior deck in ladder is pirate warrior and than you get otk mages with infinity mana and ice block.
NOW I would like to talk about deck consistency, this is very very important.
What i mean with deck consistency is that how well the deck Performance under the pressure of rng.
The deck that i play is super good under good rng and absolute dog water under bad rng, and the chances of me landing good rng and win a game.
Now, pirate warrior doesnt take allot of pressure from bad rng, the worst that could happen is too big pirates in starting hand but that rarely happens, because you got tutor cards like pirates drawing pirates and the quest literally giving you a weapon that gives you the chance to draw even more pirates and when the quest is done, its basically over if you dont have a otk or giga board of minions because warriors quest is literally better version of [card]lakkari Sacrifice[card] you do constant 4 damage, get a minion and a weapon.
We got literally deathrattle rogues combating againts pirate warrior, we got hunters combating againts pirate warrior, we got paladins combating againts pirate warrior we got mages farming slower decks and pirate warrior just doing the E.X.A.C.T same thing over and over again. im literally going insane from repeating the same sh't over and over again, and I SWEAR nobody has played quest shaman on wild ladder, not even one, its either aggro shaman, battlecry shaman or murloc shaman or big shaman but not quest shaman.
I been trying my hardest to withstand the insanity that is literally the whole f*cking game revolving around ONE f*cking deck, there is no originality, no consistency, when the main deck is soo simple that even rng cant f*ck it up and when that happens, we have a problem!

I Mean tittle is self explanatory.
Ben had personality, had the laugh, had somewhat good direction with hearthstone until charge patrions and pirate warrior but otherwise.
Really miss that guy in the hearthstone apartment.

I was playing hearthstone and i kept loosing while trying to be creative on my decks.
After witnessing like over 98% of hs just being net decks, and kept loosing.
my anger grew up and i yeeted a mini fan for a phone which ricocheted on my 42 inch tv in my living room.

My wording was kinda pepega.
But if you want anger point, just try enjoying something in your life and than it being ruined for about 100 times.
