If you're interested only in standard cards, you can check Hearthstone Mathematics channel on YouTube and look for the video "State of Hearthstone: What Packs Should I Buy? The Safest Cards For Crafting After the Nerf.". It will give and idea about which expansions are more valuable to open packs.
I'd also recommend to save 2000 gold for the next mini-expansion, coming likely in June.
Hello! Some cards lost their archetypes after rotation and could use some updates ^_^. These are the cards (in standard):
Sphere of Sapience* - Playable in many archeypes, notably Ramp paladin. -> Demote to Niche, now that there's no HL decks it is most used in OTK/combos experimentation.
Kanrethad Ebonlocke - Staple in zoolock. -> Zoolock vanished after the release of FitB, but it's a playable card in some Control Warlock with different builds.
Kargath Bladefist - Playabe in Enrage and Bomb warrior. -> Playable in Rush and Control Warrior.
Doctor Krastinov* - Staple in bomb warrior and weapon and stealth rogue. -> Playable in Poison and Stealth Rogue.
Sayge, Seer of Darkmoon - Staple in Secret mage. -> Now is Trash without a solid secret package. Maybe Niche in experimentations.
Tenwu of the Red Smoke* - Playable in most Rogue decks. -> It has become staple in Miracle and Secret Rogue.
Forest Warden Omu - Staple in Malygos Druid, playable in Dragon druid. -> In experimentation in Survial/Guardian Druid. Low winrate. (Playable?)
Ace Hunter Kreen - Playable in most hunter and demonhunter decks, notably highlander hunter. -> Playable in Face Hunter, OTK Hunter and Deathrattle DH.
Ringmaster Whatley* - Sees play in various warrior decks, notably menagerie versions. > Staple in Rush Warrior.
Disciplinarian Gandling - Playable in Zoolock and Galakrond priest. > Trash now that Zoo is no longer a thing.
Vectus* - Playable in Quest hunter, sees play experimental play in several classes. > Sees play in Control Warlock along Rustwix. (Playable?)
GAW - Galakrond's Awakening: Need to cut this section in 'Niche'.
The Fist of Ra-den - Niche tech for Highlander and Galakrond Shaman. > Currently not found in any Shaman deck. Trash?
Nozdormu the Eternal* - Weak meme card, even with better stats for cost. > It's staple... in Nozdormu modes! LOL
What do you guys think? I don't see any aggro deck nor control prevaling -yet- (except for Control Warlock, it has *not surprisingly* a great kit right now), with Paladin reigning in mid game. I think Watch Posts are also contributing to this feeling. Do you expect this to shift to any side?
I really don't like Tickatus in its current form. I'd change it so you could only use it once in a match - this way it could even discard more than 5 in a single time.

Flavor text of Scabbs Buttercutter suggested that it was pointing out to some specific cards. Same for Rokara, Tavish and Guff.

I hope nerfs will be something like:
Deck of Lunacy: Cost increased from 2 to 4.
Sword of the Fallen: Durability decreased from 3 to 2 OR cost increased from 2 to 3.
Libram of Justice: Cost increased from 5 to 6.
Libram of Hope: Cost increased from 9 to 10.
Pen Flinger: Cost increased from 1 to 2 OR make it target only minions.
