Does this seem better balanced or is it too strong with the cost reduction

I really like the bladegorger, super flavourful and seems like it still is useful in matches against non-weapon classes

Other than the funny formatting I think both look great, I think I prefer the rare version

I would go with felfire juggler instead of grim fortune. One way I can think of to make the felfire juggler less wordy is "After you play the left or right-most card in your hand, replace it with an Outcast card from your hand"
I definitely agree with you: in my opinion, some interactions are so powerful that the mode just loses depth.
I think it's not a matter of card pool, but rather of balancing overall: feeling like you're in a dungeon run with treasures and crazy synergies is cool and all, but at the end of the day you should prevent some blatantly broken stuff like Outlander or Dark Arts
I'm really excited to find a theorycrafted counter to Darkglare Warlock, since that deck is holding a grip on Wild right now. For those who don't bother clicking into the decklist, the combo is Toxmonger -> Tentacle of N'Zoth -> Animated Broomstick. It's so good, because it nullifies cards like Loatheb from having much effectiveness.
I like Duels, but that mode still needs a lot of work imo. DH and Warlock HPs are too powerful, while other are almost useless, some Treasures need to be put into other buckets, etc.
Maybe it'll get better when the mini-expansion comes out.
From my experience I think it should be noted that deathrattle hunter’s power level is 4.8 only under the conditions that you get a deathrattle passive, as opposed to how demon hunter can consistently reach at least 8 wins even with bad passives. Last thing I’d note is that paladin is probably better off running a less greedy menagerie build and hoping to get rush or dragon affinity passives early, dude synergies have just proven to be too slow
I would hold them, specially after the statement about not being a real hall of fame/possible basic-classic rework.
Since the packs give STANDARD only cards, you'll be guaranteed to get the upcoming cards for X class in this new system (assuming there will be a new system)
So it's a pretty solid strategy to not open the class packs right now.
If you mean off-meta Wild rising decks it is quite difficult for a number of reasons:
The three decks above were provided by HSReplay's own internal data.
Wild meta is particularly harsh right now, and it does not allow new decks to successfully flourish (for example, Secret Mage does not have a clear counter but just 50/50 matchups at worst).
However, if you're looking for off-meta Wild decks in general, then our Frosty always posts an article for the weekend (next one coming very soon) and I am currently making a Wild Class Spotlight series (Druid and Priest so far; next one will be... eheh guess we'll have to wait).
It is fine thematically, but horrid in practice since basic hero powers are meant to be things you can just use when you have spare mana. If it discarded something it would be a liability to any slow archetype, essentially committing half of the class to having no hero power whatsoever.

I'm just hoping I make it to 750 so I can buy the last border. If I have enough I might buy another profile header or 2. I got 564 right now.

I am very glad the dev team is interacting more with the player base.
Contrary to the sentiments of the general public, I think hearthstone is in a great spot and will only get better from here on out.
