Seems pretty good the only thing I would change the Lord Jaraxxus because by the time you will play him you probably have already won or lost. I'd probably swap him with Leroy or something
In what scenario would you rather not have a 2/2 body on top of it all? Not sure if this comparison works ; the two are certainly alike but doesn't mean its the same, plus, they aren't mutually exclusive in the deckbuilding process.
I play a lot of Exodia Mage and Mill Mage. With those decks you usually don't want to have to wait for Mad Scientist to die, you want the Ice Block in place ASAP. It can be the difference between a win and a loss.
I've recently watched Thijs play this new freeze mage deck on his youtube channel in top 200 legend, is there any cards from the new expansion that seems like a good addiction? I'm yet to craft this but just wondering.
Interesting. I wonder about Hunter, seems like maybe the class will have difficulties if the meta is more control oriented.
Obv bucketing and offering rates can turn any analysis on its head..maybe that is not emphasized enough.
Mage, rogue and druid are inherintly strong against reborn. That might be more important than getting good cards. Priest is good with them, that is also interesting. Reborn does seem strong in arena, so if it is offered a lot (is there a SoU bonus modifier?) this can matter a lot.
Adding a second way to perform the same combo doesn't make the combo any better. Combo priest should exist already since the pieces are already there, yet it doesn't. Because it's slow, inconsistent and priest doesn't have any good tools to survive until they can pull off the combo.
RegisKillbin seems to be a nice, smart and charismatic guy good at entertaining, and while I don't know too much about Alliestrasza, she is definitely a beautiful chick. :P The rest... well, I don't care about the rest... (well, maybe I care for Slysssa too, she is a nice looking streamer after all!!! XD).
I am getting triggered everytime i see a female streamer!I mean, why the hell are they out of their kitchens?
Quest druid looks pretty good and will have a ton of late game value. Will probably work quite well against control warrior, though it's early game is necessarily weak because of the quest. Unlikely to be more than tier 2 because of that.
Mage - Cyclone mage will continue to be powerful. Probably will remain a tier 1 deck, I don't see any big counters to it coming out.
Big spell mage I'm not sure on. Could be playable, probably will end up tier 3 because of a weakness to aggressive strategies.
Freeze Mage will continue to be an alternative to the cyclone mage if you want to do better against slower decks like control warrior. It didn't really get many new tools in this expansion though, but might be able to murge somewhat with the big spell mage so that you're playing big minions and big spells. Probably tier 2 either way.
Hunter - Mech hunter will continue to be around, but with no new cards will likely just be a fair bit weaker. It was already pretty mediocre and just played because it was simple, fast and easy to secure victories against bad players/poorly refined decks at lower ranks. With the expansion it will likely drop down to a tier 3 aggro deck no one wastes their time playing.
Quest Hunter initially looks pretty bad, but there are some pretty good cards printed for the quest and it's actually not as hard for them to summon 20 minions as it might initially seem. The hero power is also pretty insane if you can pair it with charge minions from unleash the hounds, leeroy jenkins, or with tundra rhino. Probably tier 3 but could make it into tier 2.
OTK Priest will be a tier 4 garbage meme deck and nothing more. If it was going to be good, people would already be playing Stormwind Knight + Power Word: Shield x2 + Divine Spirit x2 + Topsy Turvy for the same amount of mana and the same number of cards. It will die to aggro before it can get the combo off, it just hard loses to any sort of deck that has lots of taunts, control warrior will almost always have enough armor to survive it... I just don't see how this deck could possibly be competitively viable.
I can tell you've been listening to Trump ... or at least you make some of the same arguments he makes.
Quest Druid: What's its win condition? That was where I stumbled when theorycrafting it myself; it doesn't seem to have a good one.
Cyclone Mage: Well, there are big counters to it coming out, most prominently Plague of Murlocs. But I share your opinion that the counters won't be common enough to knock Cyclone Mage from Tier 1.
I'm not sure Big Spell Mage and Freeze Mage are different decks anymore. RDU's combination of the two looked pretty strong.
I've also seen the suggestion that Mech Hunter and Quest Hunter get combined into one ... Does adding a Magnetic minion to a minion already on board add to the Quest's counter? Anyone know?
OTK Priest: You made a very interesting argument; I had to think about it for a while. I'm ultimately not persuaded by it, though.
First of all, a combo using 1x Power Word: Shield is innately easier to pull off than a combo with 2x [Hearthstone Card (Power Word Shield) Not Found], because it means you can use one of your Power Word: Shields before the combo turn, which is one of Priest's best sources of card draw.
Thanks for suggestions guys. I've used Pepe which sinti suggested. I have completed 52 cards and 83 more to go. I will share my expansion when it is completed. I hope you'll like it. :)
I wanted to say thank you to Blizzard and to OoC. It's been a long time since I have won anything from anywhere. I was shocked and surprised to hear that I was among the 5 lucky ones. I appreciate you all.
To answer the prompt:
I am still excited about the ramifications of Plague of Murlocs on Wild however I will be eagerly hoping for the "perfect card" in Zephrys the Great. I am still most excited about queuing into a priest rez deck with Plague of Murlocs in hand.
Hi, Flux. You seem to be a person who works really hard for this community without asking for a lot in return. I apologize for the things I said as I was ignorant about this.
I don't forbid any of them from entering as they are not paid employees or contractors of the site. (I apologize to Sintias well)
As Hoodini suggested, it will be appreciated if you stated the rules on how you pick the winner(we weren't sure if it was random or if you were going to chose the best).

Good work on your post, Aidan. That was a lot of work, and pretty interesting to read through.
If you want to envision how a quest priest might end up being built, here's one that I threw together.

Congrats to the winners! :)
On topic, I´ve chosen Untapped Potential and am still excited to get that quest and try it, even mostly in Wild.
After seeing all the cards revealed, my second pick would be Zephrys the Great , because it seems very cool and handy :)

Second, why not run High Priest Amet + Stonetusk Boar and Stormwind Knight, for redundancy in drawing your combo?
