    I feel like Unleash the Hounds should be cut for card draw, except this is a Hunter deck, so it has no card draw.

    44 from gold + 3 free ones + 3 free pre-release + 15 real money = 66 packs

    Arfus
    DK Malfurion
    Professor Putricide
    Moorabi
    DK Valeera (free hero)

    Then I crafted:
    Lyra (I've been putting it off)
    DK Anduin
    The Lich King

    And I'm planning on crafting when I get the dust:
    Awaken the Makers
    DK Garrosh
    Rotgut

    Not bad.

    Two Golden Ultimate Infestations huh? I think the games trying to tell me something.

    My two legendaries were a bit disappointing. The 3 cost Prince who to be fair might actually be the best of them. And the Rogue replace your spells with ones from your opponents class. Which might be fun but probably isn't tremendously practical. I'll give it a go though see what happens.

    I opened 111 packs. Legendaries:

    Lilian Voss
    Professor Putricide
    Archbishop Benedictus
    Malfurion the Pestilent
    Frost Lich Jaina
    Uther of the Ebon Blade


    Not bad, but given that I opened 86 Un'Goro Packs and got 9 I'm disappointed :P

    I'm so goddamned tilted right now.

    Previous game, me vs. a turn 1 10/10 Van Cleef, which I manage to keep from dealing fatal damage to me, only to have the goddamned rogue get the nut draw every turn and play a free arcane giant on turn 7. I topdeck Meteor, but the secret he got from Hallucination is Counterspell because of course it is.

    This game, I have a great curve, a babbling book into arcanologist, except I mulligan two cards and draw two secrets. By turn two, I have all three secrets in my hand.

    From the games I've played, The Lich King seems incredibly powerful. The Death Knight cards are just so much more impactful than Ysera's Dream cards, and with no real duds (looking at you, Laughing Sister). Also DK Hero Power plus Frostmourne is a sick combo that can provide huge swings late game. I've also been able to play Ultimate Infestation almost every game, and that card is nuts. Incredible tempo swings.

    Hmm, I have this Play 50 Priest Cards quest, and I got DK Anduin for my free DK, but the recipe deck that uses him is built around Prince No-Threes, who I don't have. Seems like it would be silly to just replace him with something else, considering the deck is built to not contain any 3-cost cards. I'm not even really sure where to go hunting for decks right now, anybody have a suggestion for a fun DK Anduin deck?

    Edit: Jeez, seems like every deck I find would involve me crafting like 5 legendaries. I have Lyra, but I'd need to craft Raza, Elise, and Kazakus before even getting to the Frozen Throne cards like Lich King and possibly Benedictus and Arfus? Whoof, maybe I'll just roll another quest, even though I'm already 10 deep into this one.

    Ultimate infestation is an entire auctioneer turn in one card, think about it. Everything you were hoping to do during that turn is in one card. The only difference is you can't go fill the entire board when you run out of cards, but that was always a win more play anyway.

    I think jade druid is a lot stronger now...

    We have some dark days ahead of us.

    Hmm, the only Legendaries I'm missing from that list are Kazakus and Raza. Raza seems pretty necessary, but Kazakus maybe less so? Are either of them worth crafting, especially considering they'll rotate out next year?

    Kazakus is probably better than Raza, tbh. Raza is only important once you get Shadowreaper up, whereas Kazakus can help you survive to your (plentiful) lategame with board wipe+armor potions (or, in matchups like this, make a 5 mana pre-nerf Ancient of Lore which is pretty nifty). If you were going to play Highlander Priest seriously I'd say Kazakus is required, and Raza is merely a luxury.

    Raza + Shadowreaper is very nuts, though.

    Ok, so my legendary haul from 138 packs:
    • Hadronox
    • Malfurious
    • Deathstalker Rexxar
    • Sindragosa
    • Moorabi
    Golden Gul'Dangerous
    • Rotface
    • Arfus
    • Prince Valanar

    Plus Shadowreaper Anduin from the prologue.

    I have all of the common cards, I'm only missing 2 copies of Defile in terms of rares.

    I'm missing a few epics that I want, like 2nd copy of Blackguard, 2nd copy of Corpsetaker, don't have any Obsidian Statues or Cryostasis (might be important if I want to give Moorabi a run out).

    I'm also up to 12455 dust after dusting all the extras.

    I'd say there's only 7 legendaries left in the set that I want, so I could theoretically craft them all now. (Putricide, the other 5 DK heroes and The Lich King).

    But I'm only 14 packs away from hitting the pity timer again so I may well buy some more packs just to trigger it tomorrow.

    As it is, it is super late and I've been super tired all day.

    Also, like, memes, but Prince Kelseleth is actually like really good? Not "give up Pain and Shadow Visions" good, of course, but if you're going in on it anyway making PotF a 4/7 or Cabal a 5/6 is a heavy-duty upgrade.

    I see that some streamer is having good success with deathrattle jade rogue as I've played 5-6 of them tonight.

    I was not able to craft a Jaina deck I liked. I think I am missing some pieces, like Pyros, but I'm not quite sure I want to craft those yet. I also just... don't know how to make mage decks anymore.

    I think I realized something tonight: the way I want to play mage is the way I can actually play Priest. So, I'm going to put some effort into crafting up some of those cards.
