Forgot I had a golden Pocket Galaxy from the bundle last year. Pretty nice surprise when I logged in.
Yeah, I barely dust much anymore. Seems to help long term even if that isn't my intent. I didn't have pocket galaxy though. I thought I did get that but maybe not. I remember getting golden luna though, which I still have. This cycle I got barnes and dr. boom to dust, which feelsgood. I think I may have crafted boom so not much gained there.
edit:
At 12k dust if I ever really feel like jumping back in hard core again it's a good place to start.

Quest shaman seems really strong post patch. The boom nerf really killed control warrior (I don't even think it's early to say this, it really seems like a bad deck now), and reno mage is less powerful so you can build safer against aggro. I can see this being a tier 1 deck. Quest druid seems really powerful too, and destroys quest shaman pretty hard.
Playing against Control Warrior is the absolute worst experience in this game. At least back in the day we had Entomb, but now playing any sort of creature deck just has me rolling my eyes until they fall out of my head. Even winning feels bad.
Control Warrior drove me away last expansion and I hate that I have to endure it again this expansion as well. Guess I'll just start teching Quest Druid for the match up with Elise, Floop, Nomi, and Phaoros. Otherwise, Quest Druid feels pretty good, as does Quest Shaman.

In the chance that Dr. Boom manages to get online at 9, it still becomes a heinously unfun slog to deal with.
I've had success making sure that he can't play it at all without taking a shit load of damage while doing it. Granted all decks can't go with that gameplan, but at least beating the warrior before boom or preventing them from playing it is a viable strategy now.
Boom getting nerfed to 9 mana really does hurt it, it's practically a dead turn for warrior, unless you had coin + shield slam or play it on turn 10 and shield slam for instance. But it is funny how just expansion or two ago people were claiming that warrior is dead, and how they complain about it again, oh the cycles of Hearthstone.
well the tempo warrior was doing wonders for me today, that epic card turned out to be amazing
It's even more astounding to me because Warrior got some amazing control tools for the early game. The deck isn't going to fall off at all and it's still going to be completely oppressive against the majority of slower decks.
Dusted all my Wild epics and legendaries. Yeah, I know it's not ideal, but I never play Wild and I never plan to. So whatever.
45k dust now.

It would be nice if Standard and Wild gave separate rewards, but I guess Blizzard it too stingy for that. That would get me playing Wild.
It was kinda useful against Raza the Chained before it got nerfed, but even that was mostly just good if you really extra hated that deck.
I've also seen some really fun memeing with decks focused on copying it and its battlecry. Candles draw pretty quick when you shuffle in 9 instead of 3. Maybe one day the copies are so good it becomes a good deck.
I wouldn't dust it if it wasn't golden, but since it's golden, i'd dust it.

This deck is killing it post patch. I'm still seeing a lot of control warrior, but they can't even win the long game anymore against it and often get tempo'd out before boom.
I'm running the standard list -1x bog slosher + 1x Barista Lynchen. Could probably swap out one of the fire eles for a giggling inventor to help out a bit vs rogue, but it's gonna be a tougher matchup regardless.
Quest Paladin is doing alright but not exceptional, ~65% winrate at legend. Still not sure about all 30 cards in the list. I've gone 2 subdue 0 consec but sometimes I get got by wide boards of shitty dudes. Subdue feels pretty good tho.
Check out this match against a hand buff paladin. I should have died? maybe?

I'm running 2 consecs, 1 subdue and 1 shrink ray, more often than not the ray is not doing much work for me.
Is the dinomancer combo doing that well? Only saw it a couple of times so far.
I feel it's kinda greedy to include just for more N'Zoth or Guldan, though a lot of the meta is greedy enough that it's not bad. And I haven't seen it used for anything good in standard.
No it's not very good.
But expired merchant is already too much value with guldan/nzoth and it feels very restrictive for future design.
i don't think it's greedy at all because you can play it so easily. It is so low cost it's easy to fit in.
I was running 2 in cubelock, and it was my lowest drawn winrate card after 35 games. Maybe that's just a low sample, but it made sense to me because it's a little awkward to play. It's game losing if it gets silenced, so you want to use it in a situation where it dies, which makes the 2 mana a little harder to fit.
It's also a completely useless draw if you don't need more 10 mana cards, which is still pretty often. It's not a given that you'd run more guldan and n'zoth if the rules allowed it because you still need to make it to turn 10.
Quest Shaman seems quite good now with nobody playing Warrior and Mage seemingly disappearing as well.
Edit: On the flip side Quest Priest seems like a solid pick if you're running into a lot of Quest Shaman.

I'm in dumpster legend but I'm winning my quest shaman games against warrior. Get chip damage in with your boards, take a bloodlust when offered, bounce lifedrinkers.

Decided to re-start with a F2P account. Have been grinding from rank 50 and up to 30 now, and I'm impressed. Over 5 years in and still no auto-squelch option.
Less jokingly, been an okay time. Looking forward to the next PvE content since I enjoyed the Dalaran Heist.

Got it as my free quest, have yet to even try to use it
Played against it once
You proc it by attacking with a weapon, you get a hero power that summons a 4/3 golem or something and it refreshes every time you attack i think
That seems pretty underwhelming. I guess you could try to combo it with Sul'thraze or something.
This is what I came up with for Quest Warrior after trying a few things. Seems like the only way you can survive weapons being a big part of your control plan is if you do big Armorsmith combos.

Hmm I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
You are always reliable when it comes to figuring out the decks that are probably trash, but possibly making them work.

ETC really tried to throw as quest shaman vs control warrior but he still managed to win.
Edit: Seems like Monsanto agrees with me on the warrior matchup. In the game he kept pushing the most damage possible and afterward he commented that he thought it was favorable.

I have not seen a mage in fucking ages. I also haven't seen that many warriors, which is kinda surprising. I still think it's a really good deck. I welcome all the aggro warriors though.
Zoo Warlock is a deck.
I feel good about maybe 27 of these cards, the 2 faerie dragons went in because I was seeing quest druid and losing more than I wanted to but once I slotted them quest druid disappeared. The 1 of grim rally could maybe be a spirit bomb, I like having the extra kill effect when I'm running the 2 eggs though.

Do you get anything for defeating the final boss in the Brawl? Or is the reward just for winning one game still?
one game, no winnings if you defeat the final boss, even the legendary quest for the uldum pack just needs some bosses, not even all.
