I'd keep it if I were you. Both warrior and warlock currently have great ways to activate it (sometimes on the same turn). Acts as a full board clear with a big threat on the board (ala Deathwing but without the discard drawback). It's not *currently* seeing top-tier play... but the fact that it's class-neutral and the fact that it has such a long shelf life being in the first xpack of a new rotation means it could likely see competitive play in the future.
I was killing some time doing a heroic Dalaran Heist run (still my favorite solo content to date) and I managed to UBER-CHEESE a run with the following treasure/passive combo:
- The 7/7 candle that changes all cards to legendary minions (really screws up most boss' decks) - Robes of Gaudiness (therefore the candle costs 2) - Candle starts in hand (via bob's tavern) - Start game with an extra mana crystal (therefore I can plan the candle on Turn 1)
Basically every match was a legendary minion tavern brawl where I have an insane cost reduction upper hand. I also had the anomaly turned on where cards that cost 8 or more give you a random treasure (something I couldn't benefit from with Robes).
When I got to Khadgar, he played the treasure that summons 5 discovered legendary minions the turn before lethal. Well... clearly the AI f***ed up real bad because here's the result (attached):
First time in a while I audibly laughed when the summon animation completed XD. Maybe it was the AI's way of saying, "I f***ing give up on this s**t."
Hats off to you, mate, for reaching out. The feelings you're describing as a new player (overwhelming number of cards, wanting to add every spell to your decks, not sure which archetype to go with, etc.) are all very common feelings when you first start out. Not to worry!
As some have mentioned before, definitely watch a lot of youtube videos. That's definitely how I got good at the game. Although a lot of the pro streamers/players are playing the Battlegrounds mode right now, I would check out semi-recent (i.e. before battlegrounds) episodes of players like Kibler, Trump, Thijs, RegisKillbin, Dekkster, and others. They often explain what they're thinking of as they play - which is super helpful.
As you get more pro, you'll start becoming familiar not just with the cards in your own deck, but what are all of the common decks currently being played (a great guide for current meta decks is VisciousSyndicate.com as well as HSreplay.net). Once you familiarize yourself with ALL the common decks being played, you'll understand what each deck's "win condition" is (i.e. draw all cards and then instant kill you with a Holy Wrath-Shirvallah combo (Holy Wrath Paladin), remove all your stuff with board clears, hard single removal, and taunts (Control Warrior), or develop super wide boards of small minions and then buff them up (Token Druid)). Then you can play your own deck accordingly to try and stop your opponent from achieving his/her win condition before you achieve yours.
Be patient, don't expect serious legend-level results for at least a few months as you develop your card collection, watch a lot of youtube videos, and - most importantly - have fun! (The single player Adventures in particular are great! Especially the Dalaran Heist, Tombs of Terror, and the original Dungeon Run).

It's fun to try all the different class' brawls...
...until everyone starts playing Hunter because it's the most overpowered one. :(

Zul'Drak Ritualist
(Neutral taunt that summons three random 1-cost minions for your opponent).
I've teched it in before. Kind of a useless card in most matchups but made a few res priest players instant concede.

Congrats on the achievement! That's.... so much time, haha. 😅
I have 1200 wins on Warlock (year of the mammoth was a fun year) but I'm only about 300 wins on all other classes.
...except Shaman. I don't even have Shaman level 60 yet. 😅

Strawman example.
You CAN say "Add this minion's attack to..."

Completely agree with the OP. I thought the exact same thing and was thinking of the exact same solution.
