Well I went from Rank 10 to Rank 6 yesterday evening w/ a 12-1. Tbh I've been lucky w/ my starting hands but over the 100 games I played so far w/ this deck I've got a 65% win rate and I'm still learning it.
Is Cairne Bloodhoof worth making or would it be better to go with The Black Knight? I have most of the other core legendaries besides Bloodmage Thalnos and the Dragons, but I want to wait until after BRM to make those.
Cairne Bloodhoof can easily be replaced by Piloted Sky Golem which is more aggressive, while TBK's effect is unique. If a choice had to be made between these 2 I'd go for TBK. I haven't played w/ Cairne since GvG came out.
Does anyone think Ysera might actually be worth crafting now with the new Dragon cards coming out?
That'd be smart to wait and see what will happen w/ this new Adventure. Ysera is great but you might use the dust for something more useful depending on where the meta goes. I'm sitting on my 2k dust, I won't touch it!
This is how the deck stands currently. I've tried swapping in exploding sheep for the chows. I had a mass dispel in there, but I feel the 2nd spellbreaker helped an already low minion deck more.
Currently the legendaries I have are Hogger, Ragnaros, VanCleef, Blingtron3000, Malorne, Sneed's, Neptulon, Mekgineer Thermaplugg, and I recently crafted Sylvannas and I'm sitting on 1130 dust at the moment.
Of note: I don't have any lightbombs or bgh's and they are both at the top of my list to craft.
So I guess my main question to ask is, how important should Vol'jin be to the deck and what, if anything, should I dust aside from Thermaplugg? I don't like VanCleef at all and I rarely use hogger and blingtron.
Also does MC tech have any place in this deck and should I be trying to squeeze a mind control or a 2nd holy fire (which I'd have to craft) in?
Thanks for any input :)
Ok regarding the legendary crafting part. I wouldn't dust any of the legendaries you mentioned ESPECIALLY VanCleef! Do not dust it! EVER! (I'm serious) You might not play the Rogue class or do not like this card now, but it is a great card and if you change your mind and want to build a Rogue deck let's say 3 months from now, you'll regret it I can tell you that the 400 dust it will provide you now won't make up for that (I mean for the 1600 you'll need to craft him back). As a personal example, I opened BaronGeddon in a pack 8 months ago, never used him till a month ago when I could at last build a Control Warrior. I was glad I didn't dust it back then, it was simply not worth the dust.
For Blingtron, Hogger and Mekgineer Thermaplugg. That's my personal choice but I would not dust these 2 except if they were golden. I mean they can be fun to play and they are not bad cards (yes like Hemet for instance). The same would go for Malorne, it's not played but it's not a bad card. I would not dust it, for 400 dust it's a waste.
Again personal choice but my rule of thumb when it comes to dusting cards: It has to be either a very bad non golden legendary (Hemet, Gruul) or if it's a so-so/deck specific legendary it HAS TO BE GOLDEN to be worth the dust (Blingtron, Malorne).
As for your deck I would go for Dr. Boom first and then Vol'jin (you can't go wrong w/ either of these). The MC Tech question is all about the meta, if you face lots of aggro just add it. Also 2 Spellbreakers might be a bit too much (a SludgeBelcher could be great). Overall I would look at other decks on the web site, it's really inspiring.
Was lucky enough to pull a Troggzor from an 0-3 arena pack last night, Is he worth keeping? I know he's not seeing a lot of play right now but his affect seems strong in different metas. What do you guys think?
You definitely keep it!
*** oh and for the 0-3 arena into Troggzor, that must be the definition of value!
Thanks again for the advice, I crafted Boom today. So far I'm really enjoying it, it's crazy how you can put him in basically everything. If that wasn't enough I also got a golden Ysera today, I guess there are better Legendaries I could craft with its dust (like the suggested Sylvana), but I don't feel like DEing it. Maybe with that dragon theme coming up, it might become more playable again.
Sylvanas would obviously be more useful. But I would NEVER dust a golden Ysera, it might be one of the coolest anim + golden dream cards. I would actually never dust a decent golden legendary in general, because w/ the dust you'll be able to craft another decent legendary so there is no point.
Or anything that's insanely funny and worth to build a deck for. What's your recommendations guys?
Sylvanas for value! She'll end up in most of your decks. There is no way you regret crafting this one. The other ones are great too but the priority is on Sylvanas for sure.
Now I'm looking for assistance in what to craft. I have all naxx, Sneed's Old Shredder, Ragnaros the Firelord, Archmage Antonidas, Centarius.
I want to play warrior but don't have all the cards needed. Was thinking about craftingYsera, Sylvanas Windrunner, or a couple preparations for a rogue deck.
Sylvanas first, except if you really badly want to play Oil Rogue. She'll be useful for your future Control Warrior and, in the meantime, for pretty much any of your other decks. Just pure value! (I don't play rush decks, only Mid-range and Control and she's in 4 out of my 5 decks).
Is it worth DE some or all of them to build Fast Druid? I would need to craft Cenarius, double Ancient of Lore, Force of Nature and possibly Harrison Jones. I currenty play SilentStorm's Demonlock, Mech Mage without Archmage Antonidas, Face and Midrange Hunter, Mech Shaman and Grinder Mage. Obviously, I have never played Druid before so I was thinking it would be a good time trying a new class out.
I would only DE the following cards: Golden Kidnapper and Golden Twisting Nether. And if you're missing a few hundreds then 1x Pit Lord and 1x Bestial Wrath. The other ones are not golden and can eventually see some plays, for instance King Mukla. If it were golden I would DE it but it's not and I don't feel like 400 dust is worth missing this card.
As for the decks I suggest you watch some streamers so you can figure out which one of these decks you want to build. This way you'll have a better idea how the deck is played before committing all this dust. You might realize it's not your play style afterwards.
For the neutral legendaries it depends on the ones you already have, Dr. Boom and Sylvanas are a priority. If you do have these then the 3 you mentioned are great, I'm actually asking myself the same question and I decided to wait for the expansion to be released. I think I'll go for Ragnaros but if one of the other 2 (tech cards) might become staple in the upcoming meta I might change my mind.
I'm not really sure. I think Cairne fits better with the deck's general theme.
In the end I went for Ysera and did a 2-3 run w/ this deck. I played her 3 times but by turn 9 board control was completely lost. Especially in the last 2 games against mages w/ double flamestrike. It was rough.

Just once so you can see the animation by yourself + mega-windfury finish. I remember dusting right after that because I really needed the 400 dust.

Might be a month old now, but it's been completely reworked. And it's pretty awesome.

Play it once so you can check out the new animation!
