    To mirror what Dakarian had said, unless it is a card that you "NEED" to have (like wanting to craft the whole expansion) crafting many cards out of the box is a bad idea.  A number of cards go through nerfing in the initial release of an expansion.  And if you go through the trouble of crafting a number of cards for a deck that is now no longer viable due to nerfing, you're probably going to be out a lot of dust.  After about a month is when the meta starts to see the shifting and you could be safer crafting then. 

    I know that it can be frustrating to see people playing cards that you want and, even more so, losing because of them.  However you would be doing yourself an immense disservice by crafting a bunch of stuff.  If I were you, I'd pick a couple of cards that you like and craft those.  But I would advise against crafting many Legendaries or Epics as those are the ones that typically get targeted first for nerfs.

    I'm not the biggest fan of Warrior in general, but I really am liking Trump's Tempo Warrior.  I've lost count of how many times I was able to snipe the win with Grommash at the last minute.

    Quote From GoliathTheDwarf

    I'm not planning on watching it. I don't like when a TV show or movie is done with the same story and characters as games where I get to make decisions and affect how the story ends. It's like a slap in the fact for me, saying "You did the story wrong.  This is what REALLY happened and none of your choices mean anything". I believe that games and stories like these shouldn't have "cannon endings" for this reason. Besides, I don't have Netflix.

    But without Netflix... how can you chill

    I've been playing my own version and I find that the Mechano-Egg was not the best. If you're going to do both options, you will need to magnetize more.

    You sounds salty about this, especially against Shamans.  I can only attest to what I have I have been playing against so far with Tempo Warrior.  I've had a good 58% win rate with it, but EVERY TIME I encounter the Druid quest, I lose simply because they can do just enough to hold back an onslaught for 4 turns, and then scrubby cards like Starfall become a pain.  Not to mention, Nourish as a mid-range solution to topping out at 10 mana AND getting their hand refilled.   I am thinking that I want to craft a golden one for my Wild Jade deck simply because that would negate having Fandrel in the deck at all and it can only be countered if someone is lucky enough to go first and have the Kabal Lackey and Counterspell in hand.

    The druid quest is stupid broken. Of all the decks I've been playing against, that one card had cost me so many wins. I'm not complaining, other than I want to craft it and is my previous dust I've been saving.  But with all the cards in druids arsenal that are multiple choice, have a constant Fandrel on turn 4 is stupid gross

    It's a Mill deck... how hard is that going to be to follow?

    It is entirely based on your situation.  If you have no board presence, you NEED something on the board so Animal Companion is your best option.  However, if you:
    1) do have minions on the board

    2) think you're playing against a control deck

    3) need more options in your hand

    Then it is a good idea to play Master's Call.

    I would suggest that you be cognizant of the beasts in your deck compared to what you have in your hand and what you're playing against.  If you play against a deck that has a lot of board wipe, holding onto that Vicious Scalehide or [Hearthstone Card (spring paw) Not Found] so you can drop a Dire Frenzy on it in the same time is valuable.

    Hunter has been getting a lot of bonus hand improvement in the past couple of release. Good thing there was a realignment of class identity otherwise this would be a little awkward...

    I'm remaining hopeful for Hunter cards.  Hunter is probably going to be the last class for me to get to Gold... so I need good card that make me want to play something other than mid-range.

    High Priestess Jeklik and Soulwarden.  Solves a lot of discard issues right there. Throw this into wild and get a couple of Mal'Ganis or even Lord Jaraxxus and you have a recipe for lots of pain

    The idea of having two Tirion Fordring with Mukla's Champion in play makes me REALLY excited.

    I"m ambivalent about this.  I agree with the other posts that this seems to be a Priest card with an identity issue.  On that note, if Blizzard can make Reborn a recurring ability and not trapped to one release, I'm looking at K&C for the Rogue secrets, I think it actually has a lot of potential to be used with things like the Inspire minions like Mukla's Champion
