Started running one Garrison Commander in my totem Shaman. Works pretty well and it definitely seems to surprise people.

What do you mean?
Just 12-2'd with this in Arena, deck was unreal: http://www.heartharena.com/arena-run/4x2905
I can't believe Paladins got better in Arena.
250g, Gold Shadow Madness, Shield Slam, TGT Pack as rewards.

One of them is terrible and the other is okay. Neither works in the current types of super-aggressive Hunter. It's okay.

Both arena runs today have been disastrous. Feels bad.
I had three runs and they were all shit.
And I only got one TGT pack from them. Blizzard please.
I would not be surprised if Priest ends up being better thanks to that 2 drop taunt being so good.
I wish I pulled Enter the Coliseum to try it out, I'd rather not craft epics right now.

Its why im not doing Arena, first gotta get a decent amount of TGT cards otherwise random packs will screw you over.
In ranked? It's fine- deck's still stupid and it's a good way to grind up.

Is that brainless Paladin rushdown? Because yeah, that took me from like 17->9 easily.
It just can't beat Patron unless they whiff on drawing the combo.

Eboladin can't, but Grand Eboladin got a big buff. I'm going to run it for sure at the start of next season =)
Got a link to a sample list?

From what I've seen, Dragon Priest is good. Control Warrior with Varian can be good (Varian is better than I thought seeing it in practice - him and Justicar are probably the best legendaries in the set). The new paladin is pretty cancerous.
Etc.
Along with mighty totem shaman, which is similar to shaman of the past with a new coat of paint. Similar weaknesses and strengths, but more fun.

I got 7 of them in 88 packs. 2 of them were golden, I would have given you one if I could dude

I already hate Varian. What a freaking Yugioh card.
Wow!! I'm surprised the rope didn't show up! lol

I lost to a Control Warrior with Totem Shaman last night who ran Varian, Dr. Boom, Sylvanas, Alexstraza, Ragnaros, Ysera, Nefarian and Chillmaw. I got to fatigue, down about 40HP (and Armor), but thinking I might be able to grind it out when he revealed Ysera was his last card. He was running Twilight Dragons, Belchers and Bolsters as well. Beware the super greedy Taunt Warriors out there.
I just drew my second Dreadsteed....could have been Mulch or Kodorider but noOOOoooOooo....
Mission accepted!

Not a big fan of Totem Golem being added.
I lost 2 arena games instantly when my opponent opened with one.
It just demolishes every other 2 drop. Especially the crap 2 drops people have in arena. This current game it went 3 for 1 against me in 2 drops as he got a healing totem up.

In Inspire Paladin its amazing.
Edit: Jesus I'm really loving Inspire Paladin it's super fun to play and pretty decent, good early to mid game and the buffs to recruits help you to keep up with other decks.

Oh yeah best legendary.
2 legendaries in 39 packs.
So I opened 55 packs once I got in last night. I got 4 legendaries out of them, including a gold one, Dreadscale. The other 3 were Mistcaller, Paletress and The Skeleton Knight. Not the cards I wanted but I can't complain really. Didn't get the epics I wanted either unfortunately.
Anyway, I tried a few decks. Totem Shaman first of course, but I'm not sold on it yet. Might need some tweaking, might just not be good enough. Beast Druid still doesn't seem that great either, however Beast Hunter doesn't seem too bad.
I also tried a Silver Hand Paladin and a Weapon Pirate Rogue. Both seem surprisingly great!

I got 3 legendaries from 13 packs:
Ramshield
Mistcaller
Gormok the impaler
All of them are garbage,but at least Ramshield is golden.

I don't like the way they decided on "Whenever you target this minion with a spell" as the standard text for the Fjola/Eydis/Dragonkin Sorcerer effect. Just write "Whenever its owner targets this minion with a spell" and the ambiguity is gone. What the hell is bolding the "you" supposed to mean anyway?
I don't like it either. They emphasise "you" yet to each player that refers to...well, them, yet it doesn't work like that.

I agree. That text is awful.
120 packs got me:
-Golden Wilfred Fizzlebang (sweet golden animation!)
-Skycapn Kragg
-Anub'arak x2
-Chillmaw
-Rhonin
-Justicar Trueheart
-Eydis Darkbane
-Bolf Ramshield
-3000 dust
And some fun epics - one of each of the neutral epic minions, Arcane Blast, Charged Hammer x2, Dreadsteed x2, Mysterious Challenger x2, Shadowfiend, Astral Communion, and a couple others.
Crafted a Paletress and a Saraad to round out my day.
Happy! Still have about 7000 dust banked, too.

Gormok might be pretty good in zoo
What's your Inspire Paladin deck look like? I'd like to put one together, but I'm afraid that I'm missing too many necessary cards (and I'm low on dust to craft more).

Day 1 thoughts:
* Control Warrior isn't quite there yet and will remain inconsistent until the meta settles down. Then it'll dominate. Freeze mage is completely dead.
* Joust - Is it still in the game?
* Inspire - Meh
* Aggro Paladin - Is complete bullshit.
* Priest kind of sort of works...but still not really because you can't play enough cards.
Haven't tried Shaman yet.

In my proud tradition of getting some of the worst fucking legendaries in packs and having to craft all the good ones, I present to you, my only legendary pickup in 44 packs.
But all the golden commons and rares in my 44 packs helped me get to almost 3200 dust, so I can now craft 2 of the legendaries! I hear Justicar and Varian are high up in the standings? Still waiting to see how the meta shakes out and if another Dr. Boom rears its head.
