Anybody got any tips on a decent legendary to craft? Have built up enough dust but not really been playing enough to know what's good these days...

as Jas said, Dr.Boom if you havent already got him. he is an auto include in every deck. what decks do you like playing?

Boom

Although I'm having quite a lot of fun with Malygos with my tempo mage

I also run kezan and mulligan for it when i'm playing pallys. I've only had anyfin beat me once so far.

Still facing agressive warrior decks going for a quick kill to face but I can usually get to turn 7 with sludge and then it's easy.

I'd say my win rate is 55% at the moment thing is if you don't play facehunter games take ages seen many games use all 30 cards with famous Reno appearing at the end when no cards are left :(

At 18 (*)( ) ( )

agressive mage decks seem to be what i face most. i do auto include kezan in all my decks now too. so many secrets are played, so nice to steal them.

decided to have a go with reno warlock. seems to be working well.

Got Boom... also a few others, most notably Ysera and Alex...

When I was still playing a while ago I was using midrange hunter, but occasionally zoo/face-hunter for grinding... messed about with a Shammy totem deck and a sword of justice pally type of thing too...

I guess I was thinking if there are any other *mustt have* neutral Legendaries like Boom.... maybe Harrison?

that was why i asked which decks you play most.

sylvannas windrunner is in a lot of decks at the moment so this would be in my top list to craft if you havent got her.

archmage antonidas if you play mage decks (great for any spell type mage, good for mech mage - using with spare parts)

malgannis/jarax for warlocks (both great, jaraxus is probs ok in zoo, renolock utilises both)

grom for warrior (more of a win condition card)

tirion for paladin (great card for pally)

rag - not auto include but useful, seems less popular these days (cant remember last time i faced him)

harison is good and i do use him myself but his stats arent great, he's too slow in a lot of cases, if you need cards your better off finding them elsewhere


thats about all of the ones i think are worth mentioning. maybe save the dust for the next expansion.

Thanks for the insight... I did think about Sylvanas but I got the impression from somewhere that it had fallen out of grace a little bit

Could save for the next expansion - I'm feeling pretty behind already though to be fair as I've not even touched any of the latest expansion really... Think I'm still on the final wing of BM at the moment (but very slow progress due to losing motivation to keep playing a bit)

theres not a whole load of decent cards in the new one worth having.

reno is good if using him in the right deck, braan also the same.

i used gold to unlock the first 2 bits of LOE but keep spending gold now on cards. only 3 cards i think im using
 
Back down to 20 this is my worst season even played my tempo mage and faced aggrodecks 6 times in a row last night flamestrike just didn't come at the right time to save me (perhaps needed to throw some healbots into the deck) Even faced an aggro pally who destroyed me by turn 5 (just didn't get any low cards out the first few turns. Even lost to an aggro druid (oh the shame) so switched to hunter and first 3 matches were against taunt decks :( which my mage would have easily wiped out...

Goes to show that you shouldn't switch decks... lol
 
Trying to reach rank 5 again for the epic. I slacked off last month mainly due to all the secret Paladins that kept punishing my CW.

Using midrage Paladin now and liking the deck it's quite solid and doesn't really have many unfavourable match ups that i can see so far anyway.

My long term best deck that. Reached the dizzy heights of rank 2 way back when with a previous midrange Pally.

Good luck.
 
I changed to renolock to climb to rank 5.

I went 2-12 vs Paladin with my midrange pala. Secret pala was a nightmare to play against. If That wasn't such a bad match up for me I would have easily hit 5 with it.

Renolock is a lot of fun though. The deck suits my play style quite a lot.
 
So a new format system has been unveiled, where old expansions and sets will be removed from gameplay over time, to make room for new sets, similar to how MTG works.

I have to say this is the best news ever, cards like Piloted Shredder, Implosion and Dr Boom being unavailable for use in standard play will be amazing! Pretty much most decks were 15 of the same cards + a few class cards. Now there will be some actual variety used. It's so good. GVG introduced far too many powerful cards which are just too entrenched in decks right now.

If you still enjoy playing with all the old broken cards though, you still can in the 'Wild' format, but I think that will die off quite quickly and standard will be the most popular type.
 
Yeah it's brilliant news for the game. All successful CCGs are forced to take the Standard/Legacy direction eventually.

They are keeping the Classic set (Rag, Ysera, Tirion, all the druid cards, etc) in Standard but have said that some cards from it will be re-balanced. BGH and the like most probably.
 
BGH might be changed to 8 or 9 attack to allow a few bigger minions to see play safely. FoN + Savage will definitely get changed, the treants probably wont have charge anymore. Also think they'll nerf innervate to refill empty crystals rather than giving you two temporary full ones. Knife Juggler will also almost certainly see the nerf bat.
 
New play mode sounds awful and will lead to fewer deck possibilities and a more stale meta game. Decks that have been borderline viable but are just missing a few cards will now not come to fruition (control hunter, beast druid etc.). Bliz should have introduced a catch up mechanic so new players can get the older cards and combine this with innovative cards that shake up the meta such as Reno. I hope the new play mode fails and everyone keeps playing 'wild mode'.
 
I don't know about all the changes they are planning. Might make my decks unusable it might break decks play styles if cards are tweaked it will separate the mp more as some like me will probably play wild instead of standard so our fav decks are intact while maybe more newer players will use standard instead.
