Vol'jin, and I don't even play Priest (but totally would if I had him :))
I was able to summon him during my free arena draft through Unstable Portal, so amazing. Fully anticipating him in pretty much every competitive Preist deck.
A ton of players bought Naxxramas with real money, specifically to get the advertised cards. Compensation in the form of Gold or Dust would be a slap in the face, and I guess that's also the reason why they didn't touch Untertaker yet.
He seems to be one of those cards that could turn massively OP in a few expansions. If they ever mess up and create a card that allows you to summon him early or protect him for a few turns he will be a monster. Miracle Rogue already had a small taste of what's to come eventually!
Also his attack emote is literally
YOU . ARE.FINIIIIIIIIISHED!
You don't DE something like that. You just don't.
Anyway, only got crap in my pack. But I probably had the most fun matches ever with a very nice Mage draft. Unstable Portal is so amazing!
At first glance it doesn't make sense that they nerf an underpowered class like Rogue by nerfing the Gadzetan, but then people must admit that something is terribly wrong when the whole class fully depends on a single card. Rogues could use some help, but not in the form of one overpowered minion mechanic.
Imagine you open 40 packs at the start of GvG and the only legendary you get is this one.
Dust is dust, but I would rather draw nothing than deal with the frustration that comes with this abomination.
Even if I only had the basic cards that come with installing Hearthstone I wouldn't include this in a mage deck. There must be some hardcore combo we fail to see or so, they can't be serious about this.
The only bad thing about this card is.... it's a card. I was secretely hoping Vol'jin would be the alternative Priest hero, if they ever happen to offer them ;__;
I'm F2P too and was in the same situation a month ago. I tried both.My EU account bought the Naxx wings (finished last week), while my US account did nothing but Arena.
Currently the US account has a nice collection of rares and purples, but can't build a single competitive deck because the Naxx cards are just too damn important. The EU account lacks a ton of cards, logically, but is able to provide competitive decks in the form of Hunter and Deathrattle Zoo (wether people like it or not). Some Naxx cards will certainly remain extremely valuable (LOATHEB!), but I could see the last few wings being less important than they are now.
I'm curious myself which approach ends up being the right one, but honestly Naxx was extremely fun. Very short, but a quality product through and through. It entertained me so much that I actually consider buying cards now. Not because I need them, but because I want to reward Blizzard for the work they put into it. Playing it for free almost feels like I'm stealing from them, weird really....

How would Blizzard compensate people anyway?

They should rename the Savannah Highman "King of Beasts". The artwork of this card is really terrible, but a good card nevertheless.

Maybe I'm just the weird one here but... I actually enjoy doing the dailies...
I don't view them as work or things I have to get done.

Nooooo, it's interrogator Vishas!
I was hoping he would work like a flare and scream "Naughty Secrets!" on play.
Oh well, I guess torturing the Death(rattles) fits his theme too. Kinda.

I would be VERY surprised if we don't get a Fel Reaver.

Going to laugh my ass off if it has stealth. Maybe for one turn, 6/7 body.

At first I wasn't sold on the theme of the expansion, but the class cards look really fun and kind of fitting.
