Tikakus is the reason Control is not attractive anymore.
Next rotation will be the same.Tikatus for another year, and Warlock even got another auto win card in Control matchup thats buffed Jarraxus. I really want to stay away from aggro but I do not have any choice.
Tickatus is in like 4% of decks right now. I do think he'll become a problem next rotation, especially with upgraded jaraxxus running around, but I hardly see him as being the only reason control isn't popular currently.
He has low winrate because most of the deck are his hard counter which is aggro. The moment the meta shift toward control he will be 40% of the decks
And why ppl play aggro? Other than fast laddering, they do not want tikakus to spoil their fun.

First you need to ask yourself, what you want to achieve.
Each of stated legendaries is good, and there is no clear winner.
I voted for leeroy, If you are struggling with dust, its smart to invest in cards, from classic set, as it wont rotate to wild (or you will get dust refund if HoF'ed)
Ziliax is great overall card, but will rotate from standard in couple of months (with all boomsday set)
Zephyr is must have if you want to play singelton decks, but cant be really used in others. Same with Kronx, that you use only in galakrond decks.

You are perfectly right, I messed it up. The other card i have is not Ziliax, but hellfire

same deck as week one, and just as useful. I did some tweaks, if you want to try bit different version.
-2x Target Dummy ( i don’t think it stale the game enough)
-2x Runic Egg (I’m not the biggest fan of deathrattle draw mechanic. Deathratlle can make you overdraw easier- you just sit and watch mecha'thun burn ;)
-2 loot hoarder (like above)
+1 soularium for extra draw when combo in hand, you can sometimes use it together with Emperor, when you don’t care with overdraw. 1 mana draw 3, easy pick for me.
+2 doomsayer, very useful when used in good moment. AI plays dumb, often wasting value, with imminent doomsayer on board.
+1 Antique Healbot (for some extra health-debatable. You might try more draw or twisting nether)
+1 ziliax (very versatile can heal +taunt+ sometimes you can use it to help defile if needed 2 or 3 hp minion, with small board it can sometimes protect doomsayer)
+ 1 Lord Godfrey, one of best clears in game, leaves body on the board so you can clear huge hp minion with plague of flames afterward.
I had very good run, with only one blunder, when hagatha evolved to Hakkar, the Soulflayer right in to my doomsayer, oh well. Hearthstone at it finest.

very good deck for all encounters (i did all bosses apart boom, where i used mill rogue). I used to play Mecha'thun lock back in the day and enjoyed it, so i had no problem piloting this now. Kudos for bringing back good memories and sharing with idea ;)

since this is "playable" i think this is medicore.

its awful. RNG suicide with Pyroblast to my face every second game.
or casting Research Project making me overdraw but fuelling my agro opponent.
no thank you.

via reddit:
if that is true. His battle cry is amazing, making this card, close to Meta-defining!, basicly killing all resurrect shenanigans
edit:
tbh i cant confirm the source, so not sure if it is true or just some kind of trolling.
Passive hero power severely hurts this card. With my luck to RNG I can already predict me playing card just to get lethal with pyro ... in my face.

THE END IS COMING!!!

I do agree policies on rng packs should be changed. I find it strange, that company is selling "chance" to play a game in a way you want to.
I think it would be fair from blizzard to offer "full product" (zero dust but full set) and I'm really curious how much would their price such product. I know they will never do such a thing (unless forced by changes in law) because of possible customer uproar seeing ridiculous high price. ( I would expect 150E)
Guys in all honesty, don't you find it strange, that for 80 EUR you get 70% of the game ? I don't agree with statements "check other TCG like real MTG", First of all when you buy real MTG pack you are owner of cards, and can sell it for nice amount of money if you please, here even if you pay for virtual card, blizzard still owns them.

Can you elaborate on how people are sleeping on this card with almost 75% votes beeing either very good or meta defying?
