Honestly I like to play around and experiment with everything.  I've been playing combolock, oil rogue, and some priest control decks lately, but that's always subject to change.  I don't necessarily have the cards to make a great druid deck, but every other class is pretty much open.

Well then I wouldn't go for Sneed's, but for either Rag or Ysera. You mentioned the Cabal + Shrink combo to steal Ysera, but honestly there aren't many Priests on the ladder and from what I've seen they can't afford a slot for Shrink w/ all the rush decks around. On the other hand Rag is weak to BGH and everyone in this world and their mom seem to have BGH in their deck thanks to Dr. Boom.

Honestly it's a tough one, I do have Sneed's that I play along w/ Ysera in both a Priest deck and a Control Mage. I also play Ysera in Paladin but I don't have Ragnaros and might craft it really soon. It's either him, TBK or Harrison, I can't decide quite yet.

Hey guys, I'm about 200 dust away from crafting my second legendary, and I'm struggling to decide which one to craft.

So far, I was fortunate enough to pull Lord Jaraxxus, Sylvanas Windrunner, Bloodmage Thalnos, Baron Geddon, Cenarius, Captain Greenskin, and Mogor the Ogre.

The only other Legendary that I've crafted is Dr. Boom.

I was thinking about crafting Ragnaros the Firelord, Ysera, or maybe Sneed's Old Shredder.  I know that Rag is the best option of the three, but the other two seem way more fun to play.  What are some major downfalls to Ysera?  I know about the Shrinkmeister + Cabal combo, but is there anything else that makes it unplayable?  

Basically, I know that Rag would be the best to craft, but he doesn't seem as fun as the other two.  What would you suggest?  Are there any other staple legendaries that I should be considering?  Thanks

What are the classes/decks you're the most interested in playing?

Thanks for the link. I think Harrison might be the most sensible option, but he's the least exciting of the above by far.

I feel like Harrison is a "nice to have". It would be the choice if you already had the other ones. I know it's great right now but depends on the meta, I'm about to craft a legendary and it might be either Harrison or TBK, both are tech cards so I think I'll wait a little more just to see how things go.

Play pretty much only priest. Currently have boom, sylvanas, vol'jin, mekgineer, tinkmaster, naxx legends, cenarius, and flame leviathan.

I'm considering Rag, Harrison, Ysera, and Sneeds. Any thoughts?

I have to admit it's a tough one. But in this meta full of BGH I might go for Ysera as a win condition (instead of Rag), after trying to control the board during the first part of the game. I think it will have more impact. Sneed's is not bad, I feel like it's a little less reliable; when a mediocre legendary pops out of it... well... So I have both Ysera and Sneeds in my Priest deck, but if I were to have only one, it would be Ysera.

It would be great to get the input of other Priest players.

Check the "replacement" section of the following guide, it might help you.

Yeah, i thought that too, but i'm too far away from making a CW cause i dont have the core cards (Grom, epics and etc.). I tested Ysera in my ramp druid, but she cant compete with Cenarius; and i packed Baron Geddon today. Maybe i'll kepp both for the future.

Anyway, there is no rush to build a new deck or reforce the others i  have - i was thinking in build a Midrange pally (missing Tirion and quartermasters, but i have only 1200 dust).

You're right Ysera is not meant to be played in a Ramp Druid especially if you have Cenarius. But it's still a great card, it finds some play, if you dust it it's only 400 dust.. You lose so much in the deal. Keeping it can be seen as a little step towards CW.

The only non golden legendaries I ever dusted were the Beast, Tinkmaster, Pagle, Cho. The ones you do not play. I keep every single legendary that see some play simply because of the 400 dust thing. It's simply not enough to unlock opportunities.

Hi smart people,

I'm at about 1400 dust at the moment, and I will be crafting my first legendary soon. I have opened malygos, blingitron, the beast, and mekingineer thermaplugg from packs. Dr. Boom is the most logical choice to craft right? I am playing a lot of druid at the moment if that factors in.

Also, are any of the legendaries I have worth dusting? I haven't found a good use for the beast in particular. Mek and bling are situational at best but I do play them in some of my decks.

In your situation I'd dust the Beast for sure, I dusted the one I had 7 months ago and I had no regret whatsoever. It's just a bad card. If you have fun w/ Mek and Bling keep them, they find some play. I would dust Mek if I really needed more dust but dusting the Beast will be enough in your case.

Also again Dr. Boom is a great choice, it's either this or Sylvanas. But I'd go for Boom first.

I have Ysera and Baron Geddon stucked in my collection. Should I disenchant both?

- The other legendaries I have: Lord Jaraxxus, Cenarius, Sylvanas Windrunner, Dr. Boom and Naxx set. Currently playing Handlock, Ramp/Combo Druid, Midrange Hunter and Mech Mage.

Oh no don't dust these 2! I kept these cards for a long time in my collection without really being able to use these. Now that I have all the Warrior important epics I'm glad I kept these cards, it allows me to build a great Warrior Control.

Also depending on the meta Ysera can be used in other classes like Priest. Atm people seem to agree the meta is too fast for Ysera but I think you may regret it later. It will come back.

Hello everyone!

I'm about to invest and craft my first Legendary. I have a couple crappy neutrals and some decent class-specifics like Al'Akir and Jaraxxus. At first i was thinking Dr. Boom straight away, if it gets nerfed, i can always disenchant. But with the "soon to be" new expansion i wonder if thats the right move.

Should i craft boom or make a Sylvanas thats also very useful?

Thanks for your time!

Both are great cards, you can't go wrong w/ either of these. I would go for Dr Boom. Then if it doesn't get nerfed start collecting dust for Sylvanas, if it does get nerfed though you can re-consider it, eventually dust him and craft Sylvanas.

I have Al'Akir the Windlord, Lord Jaraxxus, Tinkmaster Overspark,Sylvanas Windrunner,Toshley, Dr. Boom, Ragnaros the Firelord, and Mekgineer Thermaplugg. (And the Naxx legends.) 

I have 1800 dust. I mainly play Druid (Ramp) and Priest, but I've had fun with Mech Mage for dailies. I'm thinking about crafting Antonidas for Mech Mage, Vol'jin, or maybe Foe Reaper 4000 because it looks fun. (Alternately, those Hobgoblins I don't have for Druid?)

Suggestions? Would you recommend dusting some of the bad legendaries so that I can craft two? (I feel like the "return" on dusting a few might not be worth it.)

You can safely consider dusting Tinkmaster and Mekgineer. I would not dust the other ones though because they are either awesome or at least see some plays like Toshley.

If you mainly play Ramp Druid and Priest, I'd go for either Cenarius or Vol'jin. TBK might be interesting too, it's neutral and depending on the meta could be played in both of these classes.

I would not invest in Antonidas except if you're willing to use him for more than just Mech Mage. Foe Reaper doesn't see a lot of plays and I guess you're thinking about Hobgoblin in a Token Druid, it won't be useful in a Ramp.

I've been using this exact same deck for my last 3 hours of play time. Here are the stats: Rank 17 to 12 // 72% win rate // 18 Won 7 Lost. Only lost to Oil Rogue, Shaman and this same deck w/ perfect curve/draws (Shaman drawing his 2 Hex in his first 10 cards for instance).

Playing your Mad Scientists / Bow and your Knife Juggler / Unleash the right way is key. Also from what I've seen I don't think Rag can be a replacement for Dr. Boom, the Boom Bots have done miracles.

Just got from 2 packs 2 legendaries and one was cenarius I already have and other was  Hemet nesingwary. After getting 400 dust from cenarius I have 1325 dust now, so I can craft another legendary if I disenchant hemet too. Do you think it's a good idea? This guy is not played anywhere.

I already have these legendaries: Cairne, Malganis, Tirion, Gallywix, Malygos, Dr Boom, Cenarius, Blingtron3000, Gazlowe, Prophet Velen and hemet. (You can see I was not very lucky in getting good neutral legendaries, I crafted Boom) I play lot of decks, and other than my aggro decks which don't need legendaries. I'm playing/can play midrange shaman, midrange paladin, ramp druid, I can possibly build some priest or other decks that could use some legendaries. I'm thinking of getting sylvanas, which is very good versatile legendary that is great in priest, ramp druid, paladin and many other decks. Other neutral legends I could use are Ragnaros, or some meta legendaries (TBK, Harrison...) But I think sylvanas is best for me. What do you think? 

In your situation I'd go for Sylvanas first, that's the first legendary I crafted and it's been so useful. You can play it in so many decks. And as for Hemet check the posts before yours, this card is plainly bad. It's worth it to dust it now especially if it gives you enough dust to get Sylvanas (don't dust it if your goal is to collect every single cards though).

I registered for the tournament, reached the confirmation page but I haven't received a confirmation email. I hope it went through.

Quote from Nateamadiz »

I just got Hemet Nesingwary, I want to confirm that this is better disenchanted.

You can safely dust it, except if your goal is to collect every single card.

Really interested in this tourney. I see we need to pick the 3 played classes during registration. Is there a way to change it later since the tournament is 2 weeks from now? Thanks.

Just opened a golden one, 1600 Dust!
