Pretty nice haul from 115 packs, some good epics and 10 legendaries (Twig of the World Tree, Kathrena Winterwisp, Dragoncaller Alanna, Val'anyr, Dragon Soul, Kingsbane (Golden), Grumble Worldshaker, Rin the First Disciple (Golden), Woecleaver (Free leg) and The Darkness).
Had two interesting packs also:

Had some fun with my first couple Dungeon runs. 6/8 and then a full clear 8/8! With Mage and then Druid finishing the run.
You can find some RIDICULOUS stuff in there. One of the card sets I was offered was just 3x Ragnaros. In the Druid run I was offered 2x Cenarius and 1x Lich King. Oaken Summons ended up as MVP of the deck for pulling tons of great cards like the 5/4 beast that has inspire and that new 3/6 taunt.
Those bosses down at the bottom DO NOT FUCK AROUND. It seems like the first 5 or 6 are pretty easy if you're playing strongly and abusing your treasures/synergy. The last 2 can be just complete horseshit. Their decks and hero powers are insane at that point and they have like 70 HP. Even when you have like 45 or 50 theres no way you have enough power to stay in a long game unless you have tons of high value cards. I tried to build the mage as a burn deck (Passive +3 spell damage was pretty helpful) but it takes too long to burn through 70HP and I got overwhelmed at like turn 6-7. The druid did better because of stuff like Cenarius and picking that treasure that makes enemy minions cost 1 more. That thing was probably MVP. Gives you 2-3 turns early game to set up a board before they start in with bullshit.

Dungeon Run is a blast.
I had one goal today: Build a Rin deck and then play Azari and go on to win. Mission accomplished. Actually had a few wins with it, but didn't get to play Azari most of the time. Beat a quest priest with Azari, though. Closest I got in most games was having Azari in hand, but not being able to find a good turn to play him, which is what I expected to happen. Wish I could have gotten it off vs. this amazing Astral Tiger druid I played to end his infinite tigers, but that deck is too fast for Azari, as are most things. I'm using Cho'gall and 2x Bloodblooms to accelerate out the seals.

No way Hunter is worst class lol
Flanking Strike and the Spellstone is pretty good
Those card actually help them catching up other aggresive deck now
I play against some of them with non keleseth zoolock and both card always putting works against me
The spellstone if upgraded basically living mana
I feel the main weakness of hunter is actually lacking burn as hard that sound to be.

Beat the dungeon run with Paladin, the combo I had was insane so it was pretty easy.
I had the upgraded hero power for 1 mana passive and the give all minions +1+1 passive, so I could summon 2 2/2 minions for 1 mana every turn lol :P This combined with the Silver Hand Recruit buff cards made it really OP.
Really like this mode, hope they will add more to it in the future.

Alright haul for the night, beat the dungeon run first try with mage, got a 1 mana upgraded hero power and was just burning out bosses. Came close twice with 1 boss drawing a free card with every spell I play but was able to fatigue him like that and the last boss I had to finish of w/ burn straight to the face before he killed me which was made easier w/ +3 spell damage on everything.
Opened 57 packs total but didn't track 2 of them, 5 legendaries, 8 epics, 26 extra rares, 5 golden commons, 5 golden rares.
was my 10th pack and I was so disappointed at first.
other than those I got Twig, Sonya and Val'anyr

Beat dungeon run with warrior using 6 patches the pirates and the 1/1 buff, had 2 of the hand refills as well
Free weapon was Kingsbane.
Runespear on 2nd pack.
Rhok'delar on the 11th pack.
King Togwaggle on the 29th pack.
More legendaries than I'm normally lucky enough to pull even if I don't want to play any of theme. Pretty low on epics for 37 packs.

Highlander Priest deck going on a Dungeon Run, then all 3 card options before Boss 7 put duplicates in my deck (best option being +1 Shadow Visions, +2 Anduin) so my Reno/Kazakus/Raza didn't work when I really really needed them to.
Mode is fun, haven't even opened my packs yet, I'm just trying to beat it for the first time.

Tried a dungeon. Had a really fun mage that got offered spells cost 1 less twice and a lot of "chaos" cards so I was basically getting a shitton of glyphs popping off. Lost to a dumb boss that passively gives everything charge and does nothing but hit face.
I think this is absolutely right. As long as Dragon Priest doesn't dominate the meta, mid-range hunter should be in a fantastic spot. Flanking Strike is insanely good and the Spellstone is also quite decent even without running secrets.
It's a battle of turds between Hunter, Warrior and Paladin.
lol
One of the bosses didn't agree with Patches, I think it said something like "No I'm in charge!"

Lollerskates I made a janky zoolock, only with Spiteful Summoner and the only spell of the deck being DOOM! Game one, Y'Shaarj on turn 6. Sweet.
Took a quick peak before driving home, bit of a rough start
Woecleaver (freebie) - okay with this, I know it's not great now but I think it could be someday
Through 10 packs
1 Legendary
Oakheart (again not great, maybe they'll be some oddball case for it though)
Epics
2 To my side (lol)
1 Windshear Stormcaller =(
1 Dragon's Fury =)
Rares are all over the place some really good and really bad ones so far

baron rivendare is bugged and does nothing if you got the deathrattles trigger twice passive.
They both say deathrattles trigger twice. Just like brann, that effect doesn't stack.
Oh god I hope that doesn't proliferate. That mage deck is completely uninteractive and not fun to play against. My least favorite deck I've ever seen in Hearthstone, everyone who plays it should feel terrible about their choices.
Also, I have no idea why my font is so small, but I tried re-typing, reloading the page and everything and it kept becoming this small text about halfway through my typing. Super fucking weird... and annoying.
Its like cthun right
Why you want to anyway you can get fucked if found it from pack
The Darkness is terrible any time I tried to stabilize he stole whatever I dropped, was like fighting a constructed priest with a bad arena deck
at least C'thun makes sense, they were bragging they gave us marin when this can't even be traded for dust...
oh Team 5 sometimes makes me angry...
FYI Kingsbane do keep minion buffs, and also keeps them with doomerang. Of course is super early but blade furry now is worth including again!
wtf is with the devourer hero power, it milled all my woncons and treasures? Even if I could have beaten that my opponent gets a free doomguard from voidcaller and a krul from bane of doom.
My last 2 runs ending on the last boss have really soured my experience on them, they take too long.

Would be awesome if it is a good deck for 2 reasons.
1. So Reddit can eat dirt on their predictions.
2. I got Rhok'delar as one of my Legendary Weapons
I cleared the dungeon with Hunter on my first try. Absolutely no reward for going 8/8. lol
It says you cleared with your first hero...sounds like an Arthas situation.
Deathstalker Rexxar is godlike in dungeon mode.
