All of Zayle's decks seem to be a pretty good reflection of the current meta with the priest deck being the only exception. Wizbang is less reliable and also contains some pretty off meta decks.
I come across Silence Priest on the rare occasion. I never see Plot Twist Warlock though.
All in all these decks aren't completely terrible. People should be able to use Zayle to reach rank 5. I wouldn't want to do a legend grind with them though. They are all a little too greedy to be competitive but I suppose that they did have to include each EVIL villain card.
* Priest - Madame Lazuldoesn't help much because even if you know what your opponent has you don't have that many options to play around it. Seems playable although I don't think it's fast enough to take out control.
* Rogue - Oh dear this is a mess. This is less like Tempo Rogue and more like Thijs' Control Rogue. What the heck is Bloodmage Thalnos doing in here? It all seems rather clunky with some really questionable choices. Let's throw a bunch of rogue cards and see if it works! I will say that this deck not including Raiding Party is rather telling...
* Shaman - Overall I like this, although I would prefer something with Spirit of the Frog and a few spell changes. What is with no Rain of Toads?
* Warlock - Good luck and always keep Rafaam in the mulligan. That's about all I can say. Against control, you will never have Fel Lord Betrug or Dollmaster Dorian stick around to get value from them. Against aggro you'll have won at that point. I do look forward to seeing videos of late game Dr. Morrigan cycling though.
* Warrior - Even if you just type in "Rush" in the collection manager and add everything doesn't mean that you should ever put in Spirit of the Rhino. After you're done adding all the Rush minions, don't forget to add "Bomb" as well. I think the goal was to create a Rush Warrior deck, which you would still include Dr. Boom, Mad Genius in because of the insane value, then they realized that they also needed Blastmaster Boom to fit with the theme. No Omega Devastator which makes me sad, unless that is also a bit telling..

You don't buy the content for the packs, nobody does. It's the content that's worth something. I don't give a flying fuck about the packs and would still buy the content if I didn't get the packs.

I agree that two lackeys and a 1/5 body are stronger than a random card from opponents class, but a 2 mana 3/4 on curve will in most cases win you early game if your opponent can't answer immediately. You could also run Witchwood Piper to draw a Pogo-Hopper, don't know if it's too slow though.

Looks fun, I really like the Tak Nozwhisker and Tess Greymane for the memes. Though I think you should switch out the Lab Recruiter and an EVIL Miscreant (You only need one lackey for Heistbaron Togwaggle to work) for double Pilfer and another Togwaggle's Scheme. Pilfer allows you to activate Underbelly Fence already by turn two which is super strong. Lab Recruiter only shuffles 3 copies unless you also run Augmented Elekk where Togwaggle's Scheme can (theoretically) shuffle up to 60. I also thinkTogwaggle's Scheme is better since it costs less, making it possible to play Tak Nozwhisker, Pogo-Hopper and then target the Pogo-Hopper with Togwaggle's Scheme in one turn. Alternatively, if you already have a Pogo-Hopper on board you can play Tak Nozwhisker, target the Pogo-Hopper with Togwaggle's Scheme and play one of the Pogo-Hoppers you get immedietly. And since you need to have a Pogo-Hopper to play Lab Recruiter, the 3/2 body probably won't make a big difference in most scenarios.

Yeah, you're probably right. I have added some taunts and other things I Believe will help the deck survive early- to midgame. I don't know if it's enough though. Guess I will find out in 15 minutes.

I guess you're right, a 4/4 Spirit of the Frog wouldn't be bad. Still though, compared to Ysera, Walking Fountain etc. I don't think it's that strong. Looking forward to trying it out both with and without Spirit of the Frog
