Well it looks like I'm going to have some competition for top 50 legend next month.

Prepare the cannon.
Yeah I swap him consistently with either Southsea Captain or a heroic strike. I loved him just for double weapon upgrades but you are right, he does make the raiders very large. I have some screenshots of playing in legend back last july where I had him at 21 power. You may not see it just by looking at it but I also combo the Death's Bite with Brann Bronzebeard while using Leeroy Jenkins. This forces 4 1/1 whelps in play for the opponent right before I swing with the weapon, which does wonders to feed the Frothing Berserker. It depends on the meta I am currently facing as well. Most often I am using Brann Bronzebeard as a way to pull their crowd control out of their hand to alleviate pressure from my other minions.
Good call on the Molten Blade. I've been using it successfully as well in my standard variation of this deck. I didn't want to mention anything about it until full playtesting was done, but you definitely have the right idea.
Finally wild is getting some love!
Cmon guys! let get wild ;)
Can't wait to see all those wacky spectacular Pirate Warriors and Secret Paladins!
Finally some wild event
oh no, wild is gonna crawl with pirate warriors Ship's Cannon Death's Bite Sir Finley Mrrgglton
Why not making a bigger event out of this? It's pretty much nonsense to include only top 64 players in ranked wild mode. You have to take care at least top 256 and then exclude a bunch of them. Top 64 is just another "oh gosh I hope I stay at rank 64" thingy...
Can't take anyone serious that uses the word "thingy"
This should be good
This sounds like something I really want to watch. Isn't Spiritsinger Umbra really good in Wild?
Yes is good
There's Blizz, trying to remind us that Wild format still exists... I wish there was more incentive to play it, because I might not represent the average player, but I haven't played a Wild game since it all changed. It's like, I'm already too preoccupied with trying to beat the meta in Standard, where everyone else is playing, in order to reach legend. I guess you could always just pick Wild instead, but it kinda seems irrelevant or something.
Wild is an open for veterans of the game. It's meant to be a format where you have a larger pool of cards to work with. Standard is there to keep the meta fresh by limiting cards, while Wild just gives you everything and tells you to have at it.
