I have been playing a slightly different version of this list but just might craft Hemet because he seems amazing in it

Make some fireballs with archmage, create minions with medivh, alexstraza down hp while minions are on board, etc...

fuckin' called it, man
Pulled my first Legendary in the expansion!
It was Pyros
It was Pyros
Also lets the devs design have some seriously game ending weapons
Have seen people toying with this again in white/black ramp deck.
Basically, poisonous, infinite use Gladiator's Longbow (unless you attack the weapon's user, ping that user's face or use weapon removal) that ends games with no board in 2 turns.

Log on and make a Token Druid deck.
First game against control Warrior, second game against control Priest.
Guess I pissed off someone over at Blizzard.

I saw that on Reddit. It has promise since you'll always draw burn after playing Hemet.

I crafted him with an intention to do something weird and dumb with him, but haven't had the inspiration yet.
Maybe I'll try a silly version of Jade druid with it. Discard almost your entire deck so you can start your Jade Idol train.
EDIT: Unbeatable Decklist
Mage seems to be back as the best hero pick for arena. I've done 4 arena runs as mage since Un'Goro launched and I've gone 10 wins or better in all of them. Granted I've gotten lucky with my draws (although I haven't gotten a single flamestrike or blizzard), but flame geyser, primordial glyph, and meteor are huge gains for arena (meteor may be the new best AoE spell).
My average for every other class since the expansion is around 3 wins overall. For reference, my average for arena is around 5 wins.
Tar Creeper in my opinion is the best new arena card. It stops agro builds dead in their tracks.

Has there ever been a time where Mage wasn't the best arena pick?
Prior to the Abyssal Enforcer nerf rate in arena, I'd say Warlocks were the best.
Abyssal Enforcer and Blastcrystal potion gave you the removal to take out anything.
Weren't Paladins dominant in GvG era?
"why am i paying for old packs I don't want old packs i have all those cards I want"
I'll just say that Paladin Elemental is WAY more enjoyable than Shaman Elemental.
I'm so happy Paladin's gotten a decent deck to play again. It's such a fun class.
Tirion and Rag are pretty much auto includes and Whickerflame is pretty common as well. If I didn't get 2/3 of those from packs I wouldn't ever play Paladin lol.
You can put the turtle that discover a taunt and get one of the 3 legendary taunts pally has

Anyone think Dinomancy is just a little OP?

I haven't even seen it played yet, and i've played a whole lot of games while watching a whole lot of streams.

no it's bad
I'd have to see it in play first.
There are a lot of bad cards that could win a game single handedly in very specific situations to make them seem OP. That is one of them.
It is a buff to Ivory Knight though.

that's dinosize, dinomancy replaces Hunter HP with +2/+2 to a beast. Still a bad card that's good in certain situations.
I hate the names of the cards in this expansion.
I think dinomancy is in the worst class for it. Well, maybe rogue would be worse.
I think it could be interesting in priest for example.

That's Dinosize.
There's a lot of cards that are easy to mix up the names with in this expansion. Emerald Reaver and Emerald Hive Queen is one I got mixed up earlier in this topic.
I think one small yet important critique of this expansion is how hard it is to get the names straight. They should work on diversifying the names more.

Don't forget the warlock dinomancer card.

Mage has now pulled 5 ice blocks. Good god. I'm still gonna win though
that'd be cruel.

I really did like Eternal. I'm just sad about their mechanics staying a little too archaic for my taste.

Exploring ungoro, miracle rogue style
After explore ungoro, first card gave me thistle tea. I prepp'd it out and got auctioneer, owl, and kidnapper. Warrior was already at 1 hp though and was dead.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
What if they changed it so if you go face with your wep it breaks? So like arc reaper could still go face for 5 once, but it breaks after. So then you can't do 10. Would force players to use it on removal first.

I like that and the idea of not letting charge minions hit face first.

Hunter hero power should just straight up say: Deal 2 damage to the enemy hero or give a minion +1 attack.

Is there even anything mage can do once they are at 1 and you got it active? Short of teching in eater of secrets or the one that steals 'em
Sure Paladin's HP should say make a 1/1 or deal 1 damage to a minion.
The mage in the first game was at 3 and could have pinged first for lethal.

The Paladin Hero Power affects the board - it would be best if all Hero Powers had a board effect.

Man, just tried to friend someone to talk about the sickest hunter draw i've ever seen from them and to challenge them to a rematch with 80 gold quest benifit, and they accepted and signed off.
Also could challenge Karsticles, but he's too good for hearthstone and playing Overwatch instead.
Oh well, anyone else want that 80 gold challenge?

Elemental race probably has the least bitching of all the races. They seem well designed and balanced.

I sometimes wonder what went into Firefly's development. It's too synergistic with too many quests in addition to being elemental tribe.
Like did they retrofit a couple quests or did they set out to make a 1 drop that works with half of them.

Hunter already has a very strong Hero Power straight up buffing it would be ludicrous.
