Ah, I see what you mean... And yes, I was specifically hoping to do dragon priest... What are the staple cards for dragon priest? Wyrmrest Agent, Twilight Guardian, etc?

So, I've been having some success with my control priest deck:



With so many board wipe options, this deck just does NOT let your opponent gain a board. You play it extremely slowly and just grind your opponent down.

So, even if I disenchant my Tinkmaster, I will still be 400 dust short of crafting a new legendary (my current goal is Sylvanas.) So, a couple of questions.
(1) Would it be better for me to save up to get Sylvanas, or craft important rares and epics I do not yet possess? 
(2). How smart is it to disenchant some golden common and rare cards (that I have two copies of in regular form) so that it will bring me much closer to crafting useful cards?

Golden cards are primarily for show/status so if you have 2 regular copies then I'd say feel free to DE the golden one(s) until you can get your collection more complete overall.

Okay, I like my deck, but it feels a little too heavy at times... I think I may need a Lightning Storm, which I think I will craft as soon as I am able. Any suggestions? My only board clear currently is Elemental Destruction, which also (often) wipes some of my own.

2x Earth Shock
2x Rockbiter Weapon
1x Zombie Chow
1x Crackle
2x Lava Shock
1x Flametongue Totem
1x Loot Hoarder
2x Totem Golem
1x Elemental Destruction
2x Healing Wave (yes, still necessary, as the games I play with this deck go LONG)
2x Hex
2x Tuskarr Totemic
1x Charged Hammer (Still like this card, but if a really good suggestion otherwise is made, I'll take it out. I am quite low on four drops, though)
1x Drainei Totemcarver
1x Earth Elemental
2x Sludge Belcher
2x Fire Elemental
1x Sylvanas
1x Dr Boom
1x Troggzor
1x Ragnaros

Now that this deck is full out control shaman, should I try to put in more removal, like lightning storm, a second crackle?

Ow.... Just so y'all know, if your opponent plays The Golden Monkey when he still has about half of his deck left and he has a stable board, it is practically impossible to come back from it. I got murdered by the sheer quality of characters he could put out every turn.

Is Mech Mage viable again? I keep seeing it on ladder but had thought that Tempo Mage outstripped it so much that you shouldn't play anything else.

Also, Reno is such a cancer. He's even worse than tree pallies.

I don't have the cards to play tempo mage, or I would... So, I run a budget mech deck, and it did okay last month. I got to 12 or 13, I believe, but no higher.

But but but, Reno CURED the cancer known as face hunters!

He's not called Chemo Jackson for nothing!

Face hunter was ever actually a problem? I mean, the highest I've been on ladder is like 8 or 7 so maybe I just see a different meta, but it's rarely a problem for me.

Reno isn't that bad. So many Reno decks are so underwhelming and inconsistent.

Indeed.  I also hate how "cancer" is short for "popular decks that I lose to."

Renolock is basically the only viable Reno deck. I beat a Reno Druid with Dragon Priest because as it turns out, putting Reno in your deck is not an automatic win if you don't do stuff turns 1-4 as some people seem to think.

FreezeReno also seems to work pretty well! But I agree that Renolock is by far the most reliable.

I've been trying to find a druid deck I like playing. What's the list like for that? I'd love to try it.

The one I'm running is very similar to this deck list...

http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/383714-1st-day-legend-egg-druid-v10

It's basically a token deck where you throw down small sticky minions, flood the board, play savage roar or another boosting card, rinse and repeat. It's super fun to play and you can craft the whole deck (assuming you own all the adventures) for like 800 dust. Jeeves is the hero in this deck ;D

Maybe I'm just not playing the deck right, but it's been performing very poorly for me. I was using it in Casual to practice and I didn't win any of the half dozen or so games I played.

EDIT: So I guess I just suck at it currently because I just got creamed by an egg druid deck on the ladder.

Egg Druid is ok. It's super inconsistent imo though and if you don't win by turn 9, you don't win. When it gets a good start thiugh, it's really tough to handle with any deck.

Dead on with that analysis, I will say the 4/4 deal 4 damage legend and tinkmaster have been super fun to include with this style of deck

So, after dusting a few cards, I will have enough for a new legendary. Since I really want to try control warrior, I want to craft Grommash. However, I also want to try out dragon decks, but I don't have any Blackrock except wings 1 and 2 and no Ysera. So... Grommash for now, Ysera later? What do you think?

Ysera is an all around better card you can use in multiple decks, I'd craft that first (I still need to craft myself a copy :P).
