Highlander dragon mage rides the value train at full Speed. You can both clear and generate big boards. The new malygos is bonkers. Alexstrasza is totally broken. Sometimes you even get a second Ally for 0 mana!
I would bet that this deck will see play in the future. Not that easy to optimize but we will get there.
Unpopular oppinion: Pure galakrond shaman is stronger than quest-galakrond shaman! You easily push them off the board. Same thing with pirate warrior
I do agree with you in that right now might not be the most necessary time for it. But depending on how the meta shapes up, this variation stands a chance. Thanks for the input!
This makes me pretty happy to have this confirmed! I think that with the additions of the latest expansion, it isn't a far cry to see these types of draw come into a lot of standard decks
I could see the new mana cyclone mage running this alongside both of the mage side-quests. That deck probably want to include the side quests anyway, loves to draw early and tends to lack decent proactive plays for the first few turns, so questing explorer would fit right in, assuming side-quests prove to be viable.
Our card back gallery has been updated with the missing images.
We had some renderer issues that required a bit of a rewrite due to Hearthstone changing a bunch of client code. We only ever use client-generated images in the gallery, no manual uploads, so we didn't "have" the image.
I have mostly played with a slight refinement to the Galakrond rogue deck recipe, which looks like a solid starting point for a deck. I had a few clunky draws in the early game but lackeys are pretty good at helping catch up.
The Questing Adventurers really earned their places in the deck, and were the primary use for the coins from Umbral Skulker. Otherwise the coins were rarely super helpful in this deck, especially as I rarely invoked twice early enough for them to lead to massive tempo plays. They do have one neat feature though: Kronx + Galakrond costs 13 mana, so if you hold onto them while waiting to draw one of these, you can really speed things up.
I'm planning on trying a big combo Galakrond deck, where I expect the Umbral Skulkers to be more important.
I tried my goofy meme Transmogrifier + Plot Twist Warlock deck and - hold onto your hats - a handful of random, unrelated Legendaries is not in fact actually good. The "combo" isn't all that hard to pull off though and definitely faster than just using Arch-Villain Rafaam.
Galakrond Rogue has been okay - I've had some tough matches with really bad draws so a little early to really say. the ability to get multiple uses from Kronx Dragonhoof with all the bounce/double battlecry stuff in Rogue is definitely a strong play.
Dragon Paladin (Highlander or otherwise) is, as many expected, incredibly strong.
I honestly thought Dragon Pally was going to be weak tbh. Does it have a win condition or does it just beat you to death with big bodies?
One of my opponents got a Wyrmrest Purifier in his arena deck. He got a lot of good cards (as class cards are stronger than neutrals, also spells are premium), but what killed me and really tilted me off, that I would've killed him if not for Uther of the Ebon Blade. Do I remember correctly that Hero Cards are supposed to banned from Arena?
Waxadred rouge is great, no need for lackeys or some super dragon. Card draw the same as rouges always do and always mulligan for him and togwaggles scheme

That would be me.
Pirate warrior has been a blast to play. In wild you are able to have 4 cannons and 3 patches, it is hilarious.

Wth, i just opened 10 packs (6 from the pre-expansion quests, 4 bought for gold) and dropped 3 legendaries. That's some goddamn luck

This is now resolved.

This will be a thing, patience, please!
Considering 95% of the content right now is Hearthstone, it is a little lower on the priority list than I originally had planned.

True, but with standard cards you can play 2 modes with wild only one game mode therefore the cost of the pack should be less.
