My first 11 had no legends.  :'(

Average rate per Legendary is between 20 and 21 packs.

Opened 2 more packs. Got a Target Dummy, ANOTHER Anodized Robo Cub, Metaltooth Leaper, and a Jeeves.

So, 17 packs, no legendaries, no gold cards, 85 dust from disenchanting duplicates (they were all Commons). I'm off to kind of a meh start, lol.

Also, I got 5 of the 8 different new Warrior cards. I also had gotten a gold Gorehowl previously (that I've since DE'd). I think the game is trying to tell me I should be playing Warrior. >_>

Oh I am in LOVE with the new priest cards.

I just Shrinkmeister'd a Sunwalker (which still had its shield), then Cabal Shadow Priest'd it. My opponent insta-quit.

Arena predictions
Mage is still #1 in Arena
Paladin is probably still next
Priest third IMO. Passable AoE that's a common card, Velen's Chosen is solid, Shrinkmeister is amazing for tempo, and hero power helps keeps minions on board, not to mention Dark Cultist still being a solid 3 drop (though not as good as he was before Spider Tank)
Rogue has always been a high win percentage class, but I'll never know why. I guess their combo cards are good, and weapons are as powerful as ever. This takes #4 for me.
Druid is a hit or miss class. When it's good, it's incredible, and when it's not, it's usually because you have no early game, or no late game. Generally, if I get a Swipe or 2, I go to 5 wins, if I don't, it's more like 2.  I don't think that changes much.
Warlock gained a lot of good midrange bodies that should be able to help it to not die out so quickly.
Shaman hasn't been doing it for me lately, and I feel like they gained the least. "The Kragle" is good, but a lot of it is really meh.  Also, it's much more difficult to get Lightning Storm now.
I hate Warrior in arena. Always have, always will. Like it in constructed now.

Whirling Zap-o-matic is overpowered. No question.

I can easily deal 10-15 damage with this thing before it gets answered, and if they do kill it, it only cost me two mana. It needs an overload of 2 on it.

*EDIT*

I love the new audio when Ragnaros launches fireballs. DIE INSECT!!!

With MKC's help, I got to 12 wins with this priest deck. By far the best priest draft I've ever had and a lot of really incredible games.  One really bad game, one game where I misplayed once to lose (and he topdecked the Ancient Healbot to get him out of Lethal range AND my Shredder spawned an explosive sheep so he could board clear me)

Not shown: Temple Enforcer, Madder Bomber


My first 12 wins.  :'( Pyromancer probably won me at least 4 games.

Played 7 arena runs today.
1. 5 wins Shaman
2. 12 wins Priest
3. 7 wins Priest
4. 1 win Mage
5. 4 wins Paladin
6. 5 wins Paladin
7. 11 wins Mage

Not bad at all. Came out with just a bit less gold, but a lot more dust. Both of my big wins were just 200-250 gold, some dust, and some golden rares.

Back at it again tomorrow.

Yes....IF you are patient and are not concerned about being high ranked right away.

There are opportunities to spend money, but you can just be resolute about NOT spending money and still enjoy the game.

He definitely looks interesting, I'm just not sure what class deck I should try and pair him with, and with Android version out soon I may be interested in playing more...

So apparently it takes buying packs with real money to get Legendaries from GvG, lol. Bought 60 GvG packs, got 4 golden commons, 4 golden rares, Malorne, Dr. Boom, and Sneed's Old Shredder. Also bought 15 Classic packs and got a Hogger and a golden Pit Lord.

Also got 1750 dust from DE'ing duplicates (had 200-something duplicate commons, lol). Any suggestions on Legendaries to craft? I don't have Sylvannas or Ragnaros yet, or Thalnos. I kinda want to make Neptulon so I can build a shammy murloc deck.

EDIT: Just finished an Arena run. Got a Gazlowe from my pack. Aw yeah.

I've spent enough money on classic packs + Naxx, I'm just using gold and dust from here out.

Murloc Shaman is probably bad.

I've opened 18 GVG packs and still don't have a legendary. :( I know 20 is the average, but I was really hoping Blizzard would throw me a bone.

Also:
0 wins Warlock
4 wins Priest
10 wins Mage
3 wins Priest

Still have 850 gold after I finish quests and 3.3k dust. Once I'm done with this grind I'll see which deck I want to build. Probably going to start here:

But without the Gazlow at least.

Have tomorrow off. Expecting around 10 arena runs.

I have a serious problem. I better not end up going infinite.

So I built that Mage deck Westy posted, except I don't have an Antonidas so I put Sneed's Shredder in that slot. Hopefully it still works out, either way looks like it's going to be fun to play!

I also tried building a Druid variant of a mech deck. Haven't played it yet, it's really short on spells (only 8 total) but I figure with all the Spare part generation I have that should be okay. Any thoughts/suggestions for improving/tweaking the deck?

30 cards total, yeah. Draw one each turn, and cards that allow you to draw more generally have higher costs (at least the ones that let you draw a lot, the single draw cards are usually not as overpriced).

Unstable portal seriously needs a nerf. It should cost 3 mana, not 2.

The game is easy to pick up and play, but deep in strategy which could be difficult to master by some.
