A New Legendary Crafting Tier List Has Appeared!
The ratings in the thread are more than my opinion, they are opinions of people I know, myself and popular Steamers such as Trump, Reynad, Sjow, etc. I am ranking the Cards in Tiers/Brackets I am doing this because it is impossible to rate them from 1 to X.
This is not a tier list of the best Legendaries, this is a Crafting Tier list. This list is used to find out which Legendaries to craft and Disenchant. Arena and non-competitive play have no bearing on this list.
I have arranged the Legendaries this way to not only show their importance in constructed but also to inform readers on how/why they are useful. If you have any questions about the tier list ask them, if you believe the tier list should be changed in any way, PM me.
Remember: If you would like to know what Legendary to craft, please include the decks you play and the decks you are going to play. This is necessary and someone can help you a lot easier.

If I had to guess it's not going to be an adventure. That wouldn't make Blizz much money around the holidays. I do however think you will see another set, this time centered around WOTK, and DK's will be added. New Hero's, new hero skins, and new card set equals $$$$$$.
Everyone has asked to have DK's in the game for a long time, and it would shake the Meta up quite a bit, and maybe add a Zombie deck into the game (wishful thinking).
As long as it's not more mindless RNG I want mind what it is. I am tired of playing against luck vs skill.

Depends really. If you play 6-8 hours a day, I wouldn't honestly, but if you play a few hours a week, I most differently would.
