Thx guys. I'll probably dust him cause I want to craft Twilight Guardian asap...
Btw I've got a Grand Crusader in a pack (yeah an Epic right after that VanCleef and BGH, RNG is wild in this game). First I was like meh, but she actually might be interesting. I think that as a 6 mana 5/5, she might be an alternative to Sylvanas. Sure, she won't beat her, but in some cases that extra card (Tyrion?) might be better then an easy-to-bypass Deathrattle (from my expierience players tend to effectively bypass Sylvanas ability like 70% of the time). I think she'll be fun to play and I was getting kind of "bored" with Sylvanas. We'll see...
PS: Got a golden Warsong for leveling my Warrior. Oh, the irony

I just like the randomness of the crusader. But will you be trying it in pala decks or try it in another class deck?

Well, for starters I've put her into my Dragon-Taunt Warrior instead of Sylvanas. Although the same deck harbours Varian who might "waste" her Battlecry, nevertheless I still think she will be useful. The point of this deck of mine is to survive early game while simultaneously flood the deck with one big minion after another (so a bit controlish, but not oriented on the final blow, cause I still don't have Grom). With luck she can either spawn a Consecration (this deck lacks board clears, it's one if it's biggest weaknesess, and I don't have Brawl for instance) or at least a healing spell. Tirion would also be nice 
She might be useful in Druid (for instance to give him a weapon), but for now I'm playing a Silence Druid deck so she won't fit in. I don't see the point of throwing her into my Paladin deck cause it's still Dragon oriented and I still have so much fun with it I won't be discarding it anytime soon (I think that it's one of a kind, I haven't seen anything similiar anywhere). Maybe she would fit in a mid-range Paladin?
Do you guys have any ideas?
EDIT: Damn. I just had one of the craziest games in my history with Hearthstone...
I was playing my Dragon Paladin deck. I knew something was off with this Shaman, he had cards like Wild Pyromancer or Injured Blademaster (in Shaman!?) in his deck, but it started to especially get strange when he played Majordomo He used one Hex on my Tirion which I used as bait before playing Deathwing. I use D to boardclear killing Majordomo in the process (I didn't know what was coming then and I still had 30 life). Now the problem is after that he plays Khel'Thuzad with Ancestral Healing and Ancestral Spirit... as you can see I can't use Deathwing against Khel cause he'll duplicate. Next turn guy plays Faceless M on his first Khel, charges him into my Deathwing spamming all those other Khels (let's skip the details you know how it works) and Hexing D after that. A hopeless situation don't you think?
Did I mention that I top-decked Nefarian? You see, probably Ragnaros not being a class made my Nefarian produce two Tail Swipes. A TAIL SWIPE does 4 dmg each... I can only say guy was all like "Well Played", while I couldn't stop myself from emoting "I am sorry" three times . And here's the proof:

If you aint gonna play it in a paladeck then I do not see the strenght in the card.
The fact you you won that one is incredible.. And what a weird play from that guy - what was his idea with the Ragnaros? How was he going to defend himself? Oh well. The deck sounds great, but with flaws. 
Could you fix the image. Cannot see it.

Well you like Tempo Mage? There are tons on cheap spells in Paladin class (all secrets for example) and almost all cards are usefull (Like Truesilver Champion etc) And you tend to run out of cards in this deck at some point, so the extra draw is great.

Not really, I am more of a mid range player, but I do love to freeze the opponant when I can - So if that's going for face, then yes .

Deadly Shot destroys even minions with Divine Shield. But if you are rank 12 you wont be facing Deadly Shot anymore my friend Well done for reaching Rank 12

@emilsn91
Here's the pic if you want
Well I've seen Neferian in many decks. Mostly Dragon themed, but I've also seen him in a Tempo Mage etc. I think it's mainly because he's given in BGH so more players have access to him and he fills the space if you don't have some staple Legendaries like Ysera etc. But yeah, he seems to be the least useful from the "Deathwing" family.
Maybe I'll try Grand Crusader in a Mage deck, but not in the near future...
EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFS7_GFmkrI
An interesting Kripp video on the current state of the game. I never was a fan of Grim Patron, but maybe nerfing him could've (or should've) been done differently? It's hard to argue something is amiss with those agressive decks (mostly the sheer number of them, nowadays there's not much variety in the potential decks you can play against). Yet it kinda goes with the philosophy of Hearthstone "fast and accesible card game"...

Patron Warrior was a monster of a deck which defined the entirety of the meta. However it did some good things also during it's reign - aggro was held back for example. I personally always disliked the superaggro decks like AggroPaladin way more than Grim Patron, but when one deck had so much power it changed all the other decks being played it was clear that it had to change.
This left a void of power so to speak, and aggro ran to it's place as fast as possible, lol. Things are a bit hectic now but I think we have to wait a while to see how things settle down. Priest is actually ok against aggro, so the healthy thing would be that ladder suddenly burst with Priests to fight all the aggro decks, and slowly they would realize that they need other decks, like Rogues and Warriors and Combo-Druids to beat the Priests.. etc..
That is the theory. However I feel the benefits of aggro at the current state outweight the benefits of adjusting to what you meet on the ladder... But a little time is needed to see what really happens now that Grim is gone, it is a bit soon for conclusions.

From my observations I can see that there's a surge of Inspire themed decks in recent days. People are trying to experiment with this mechanic...
I also wonder why I don't see Healing Waves in Shaman decks. It was hyped as an Aggro killer yet I don't see it anywhere. I would try it if I could but I still don't have even one (though Kripp rightly points out the uselessness of healing as a tempo-breaker in todays meta).

@Minion thanks, but it for a few Arena decks that I have standing by. I could have won my latest but I chickend out on the deadly shot vs. a FMT and I lost that one. But now I know...
Btw. Is your HS name MINION ( all caps ) ? Because if it is I think we played vs. eachother a few months back You were playing a shaman and I had just "located" the aggro pally.
@Blob I have seen that too - specially in warrior decks and a kind of semi dragon/inspire priest deck.
I have a take on the latest rush-rush-rush thats going on on the ladder.
Besides the lack of Patron, couldn't it be because of people are simply trying to get as far on the ladder as possible to get those golden cards and whatnot when the season ends ?

Yeah it's probably also an issue. I myself use Hunter to quickly get to lvl 15 (but not always, Priest or Mage also seem to do the trick), and I don't have the nerve to go further. Besides, to tell you the truth, I don't think it's worthwile. There's not that much diffrence in prizes between lvl 10 and 15, so I would need at least get to lvl 5 to make it count. And I can't find it in me to grind so much ;P I want to play this game for fun not for rage...
On a side note I crafted one Twilight Guardian which marks my first ever crafted epic in Hearthstone. It was probably the only TGT epic that I really wanted so I figured that it's much better to craft it instead of waiting for it to come from a pack (and with my luck in TGT packs, I don't think it's even possible).
PS: I already like him

Congrats! Not sure if I would've even used her in my Dragon decks (she seem's a bit gimmicky), but definately would like her for my collection. Unfortunately I lost my "chance" on that second VanCleef, so I must wait another 20 packs for another shot

Can you upload the image somewhere? I don't see it...

I agree, Chillmaw doesn't really work well in Dragon decks tbh. I just like the card, it reminds me of WC3 for some obvious reasons. So I am playing it now just for fun. Maybe Dragon Warrior could have a use for her, because Warrior always likes to play just a minion or two on board at a time - so the effect of Chillmaw won't *** you up as often ;P

Warrior is the only use for Chillmaw that I can think of. But only in scenarios where you're overrun with zoo. But for me, with addition of Twilight Guardian, defending against them seems better then ever
But the fact is, I simply hate cards with big drawbacks (and I see 3 dmg to your own board as a big drawback). It's one of the reasons I don't play Zombie Chow or don't like Hellfire. On the other hand Chillmaw can be played around and she's still one of the biggest Taunts in game... Guess I won't know until I try her
EDIT: I know my constant ranting is becoming boring, but how the f*ck would you guys feel if you got another Charged Hammer as an Epic (and you all know too well how every Epic counts)... I mean RNG gods seem to hate me for real :/ I guess Blizzards "you didn't buy TGT packs" curse keeps punishing me...
