My warrior opponent just conceded the game right after it started for some reason. Which was amusing, because that means the character says "Victory or death! I choose death".

Just opened a new Legendary!

Captain Greenskin...underwhelming, to say the least.  It did prompt me to craft a Dread Corsair so I could get the Parrots.

While playing arena on my Euro account, I got a pack that had Sylvanas in it. My Euro account was originally supposed to be a way to get more arena practice while I was saving for naxx wings on my NA account, as well as building up a collection should a F.DS tournament take place on that server. Recently I've been getting a string of successful arena runs that is resulting in gold profits. Maybe someday I'll have enough to open the naxx wings with the Euro account too.

So I finally caved on this, I told you I would. I know I'm super late to the party. But I can certainly see the appeal, I was up until 6 AM last night playing after starting at midnight ;D. Made a couple schizophrenic Mage decks, and my Arena attempt got 3 wins, which was fine by me for a first try.

Anyone interested in some fun/casual learning games against a total noob? Probably later today, around 9 or 10 forum time; I'll certainly be taking a nap after work haha

I've worked up a pretty amazing Paladin deck (imvho) and a pretty strong Warrior deck. Making a strong Hunter, Priest or Warlock deck is as easy as falling off a log and I find them boring. Maybe the reason I find them boring is because 80% of the matchups I get are someone playing the same tired decks over and over ad nauseum. I get excited when I see a Rogue, Shaman or a Paladin. Mage is overdone but at least the decks tend to have some variety. Warrior seems the hardest to make a failsafe deck for. Druid seems to be the easiest deck to work with that doesn't fall into the ruts that Hunter/Priest inevitably fall into.

Recently crafted 2 Defender of Argus because I kept getting screwed by them and they have helped my Paladin and Warrior decks considerably.

So I opened a golden epic last night... Snake Trap, which I don't think gets much play in Constructed.  Disenchanting it is worth 4 Rares, which could be huge.  Thoughts?

(I have another golden epic, but Ancient of Lore is a core card for druids, not getting rid of that.

Snake trap isn't terrible, you could use it I'm a midrange deck as a surprise factor. But if those rates are essential to other decks, probably take the rares.

I mean... I don't play a huge amount, but getting a second Keeper and Watcher for druid, or a KT Mage, or a couple Lightwells, or a Sunwalker, Commander, or Auctioneer...  I'm missing a ton of rares.

I've seen it occasionally in high ranked play on streams. It's mostly useful when you've got a buzzard out for some other reason and are expecting them to attack to get rid of it.

Litghwell's aren't really worth it IMO. I don't know what KT Mage it, but unless it's full on freeze mage it's probably not worth it. Argent Commander is worth it. I crafted one when I hadn't got any in packs. And Keeper is very worth it. So I'd say disenchant it, since it sounds like there are more essential cards that Snake trap that you need more than Snake Trap.

Kirin Tor Mage.

Honestly, I don't DE anything ever until I need to make a deck.  Snake Trap is a decent enough card and why not hang onto it for now unless you actually are trying to rank up with a Druid deck that needs a Keeper.

I probably wouldn't craft a Kirin Tor Mage unless you want to build some sort of secret deck (I say that as someone who plays Secret Mage, I don't think they're useful outside of a secret based deck). The best general use rares are probably Commander, Auctioneer, Drake and Sunwalker. I don't think I've ever built a deck without at least some of these cards making up the 5-6 drop slots.

Also I'm not sure Handlock uses them. You CAN use Commander. But I really don't see much of Sunwalker or Auctioneer. I don't even see many Miracle Rogues anymore, which is funny because I don't think Loetheb is really a counter to it. I suppose it's mostly from all the Warriors, but still.

Just opened a golden lorewalker cho. Really torn on dis enchanting this one or not. That's a lot of dust for what I consider a crappy card. On the other hand it is a golden legendary which is pretty neat in and if itself...
