Yeah, Cairne isn't that good. It isn't that bad either but I rarely see it in any deck. If I didn't have Alex, I'd craft Jaraxxus for my handlock.

Craft all the cards you will use. Don't bother with any other. Some of them may become viable in the future, but I don't consider murlocs, pirates, kidnapper and twisting nether worthy enough to give them priority over many gvg legendaries and epics.

Well can you name any 6 mana or lower minion or weapon that can clear the board?

Who said that you have to clear the board every turn? That's the main reason people play Loatheb, to prevent opponents from clearing the board or big minions.

Also, spells under 3 mana are playable. Indeed, every spell which costs 5 mana and less is playable.

I'm a handlock player and I have Alex only. It isn't as strong as Jaraxxus, but it has it's pros : You get to either heal yourself or to burst your opponent, and you get an 8/8 body which is like another giant. Rag is good, Dr. Boom is good, but all these cards are vulnerable to BGH, which most decks run these days. Cairne is nice due to 2x 4/5 for 6 mana, but if you have Piloted Sky Golem, that can work too.

If I had to choose, I'd be leaning towards a neutral one, simply because it can fit into more than one deck. If you play one class exclusively, then crafting a class-specific is usually a better option.

Yes, but it's because of the card sinergy. So the secrets are a bit op, not the Scientist, like Explosive should do 1 dmg to all enemies, not 2. And Freezing trap is ok, I guess. I don't play hunter but whenever I encounter that class, I'm prepared for the traps. Play around them, don't play too many minions and be careful which one you use to attack first. If you can't play around, consider playing Kezan Mystic.

Mad Scientist itself isn't that strong, but the secrets are. Face hunter is probably the most played aggro deck, and it does greatly benefit from the Mad Scientist, but it also benefits from all other cards. Just because someone found a way to increase the chances of getting the wanted secret by putting less of them in the deck doesn't make a certain card op, but the deck. Scientist gives you a random one. The reason why mages get duplicate is because nobody runs spellbender or counterspell, and why would they? I don't play hunter, Scientist is a good card and by making it 3 mana 2/2 with the same effect would be enough.

Only 3 classes benefit from it, so it's not op.

I've opened about 200-250 packs so far I guess, and I've got 7 legendaries so far, none of them were golden though.

I'm not a legend player, but I do play handlock. Why do you run Malygos? Shadowflame is pretty much enough for AoE.

It's not broken at all. It's random. Is priest's thoughtsteal also broken because they can get your legendaries? Of course not, that's what they pay for. Besides, look at this.

I guess it does, since you get to draw a card first.
