Best Journey to Un’Goro Legendary Cards to Craft

I hope you had plenty of luck opening your Journey to Un’Goro packs and ripped open plenty of legendaries.

Getting all the best legendaries you will need for META decks for the next few months is unlikely from packs, you’re going to need to spend some dust.

It’s expensive spending dust to make legendaries (1600 dust), so you want to make sure you’re crafting cards that will see a lot of play.

Don’t hold me accountable, but I was pretty accurate when recommending Mean Streets of Gadgetzan legendaries that were must haves.

With the Quest mechanic being a new tool, and most of the quests having insane rewards, it’s no surprise that you should craft these for your favorite classes.

There are a few other strong cards too, here are the legendaries from the Un’Goro set to try and add to your collection:

Best Journey to Un’Goro Legendary Cards to Craft

Neutral Legendaries

There are less really strong neutral legendary minions than in previous expansions, however these are going to be a staple in several deck archetypes:

Spiritsinger Umbra

This is an interesting card. Not always going to be easy to pull off on curve, but loads of potential at different stages of the game.

It’s one of those cards that has pseudo-taunt too, your opponent will have to kill it or be punished.

Ozruk

Blizzard has been generous with the quality of the Elemental cards in general.

With a large amount of low-cost Elementals and other synergies, at turn 9 it’s realistic that you will be able to drop Ozruk as a 5/15 or a 5/20.

With Taunt that’s pretty crazy.

Class Legendaries

Most of the quests are good enough to build a deck around, there are some pretty decent class legendaries too, here is the best of the bunch:

Quests

Druid – Jungle Giants Quest

Shouldn’t be too hard to activate this quest with some early ramp. Once your minions cost 0, and you play an 8/8 for 5 mana things are going to get crazy.

Priest – Awaken the Makers

Control Priest is going to be a top-tier deck when the new expansion is out. Deathrattle minions are usually pretty awesome, then you get rewarded with an 8/8 for 5 mana and 40 health!

Shaman – Unite the Murlocs

Murloc Shaman is going to be a real deck with this quest and some other cards coming with the expansion. It combines card draw with a load of crazy murlocs.

Warlock – Lakkari Sacrifice

This is the real meaning of infinite value. Discardlock is a powerfularchetypee, now you have the added reward of 3/2 Imps popping out a portal afterwards.

Class Minions

King Mosh

This dino is a pretty efficient board clear tool in control Warrior with a whirlwind effect, and it leaves a 9/7 body on the board.

Kalimos, Primal Lord

This card is crazy strong. You can see all of the Elemental Invocation options here.

Shaman Elemental decks are going to be really strong.

Swamp King Dred

Not only is this guy a 9/9 for 7 mana, he’s also a beast, and he immediately eats up any minions your opponent plays.

Insane value, awesome mechanic, and a must play in beast Hunter decks.

Best Mean Streets of Gadgetzan Legendary Cards to Craft

I hope you had plenty of luck opening your Mean Streets of Gadgetzan packs and landed plenty of legendaries. But having all the good legendaries is unlikely from packs and you will need to spend some dust.

It’s expensive spending dust to make legendaries (1600 dust), so you want to make sure you’re crafting cards that will see a lot of play.

I can’t be held accountable, but I can recommend some of the more important and powerful legendaries from the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan set.

Consider making any of these if you have enough dust:

Best Mean Streets of Gadgetzan Legendary Cards to Craft

Kazakus Tri-Class Kabal (Mage, Priest, Warlock)

Kazakus has been the most eagerly awaited card since it was unveiled at Blizzcon.

It brings a new mechanic to the game where you can build a custom spell, a very powerful custom spell too.

This is going to be one of the most fun cards, and will see play in all Reno builds.

White Eyes – Shaman

White Eyes is a 5/5 for 5 mana, which is vanilla. But the deathrattle shuffles a 10/10 for 5 mana into your deck – insane!

This is going to be a key card in all control decks, and may find its way into some midrange builds, we will have to see.

It’s certainly a very powerful card and deserves a place in your collection.

Aya Blackpaw Tri-Class Lotus (Druid, Shaman, Rogue)

The Jade Golem mechanic looks pretty cool, and seeing some games played now I can confirm it’s incredibly strong.

Aya Blackpaw is a must for all Jade Golem decks as she summons a Jade Golem with both her battlecry and deathrattle.

This is one of the most important cards of the MSG set.

Raza the Chained – Priest

Most of the class legendaries were underwhelming, but the Shaman and Priest legendaries are pretty sweet.

Raza the Chained changes your hero power to zero cost for the remainder of the game if you have no duplicates (Reno Deck).

Most cards that help you cheat or save mana end up being value cards that help you outvalue your opponent, and I expect this to be the case with this card.

Finja, the Flying Star – Neutral

Murloc decks are so much fun, but they usually fall a little short of being decent. (Except Anyfin Paladin).

There have been a few new murloc cards with the new expansion and this legendary is the standout card.

I expect this card to find its way into a lot of different murloc decks so it’s worth crafting if you have the dust.

Hobart Grapplehammer – Warrior

A 2/2 for 2 mana is nothing special, but a battlecry that gives all your weapons +1 attack is!

This guy is a staple in the Pirate Warrior decks causing havoc all over the ladder and brings a lot of value to any Warrior deck.

Patches the Pirate – Neutral

This one came as a little bit of a surprise, it’s only a 1/1 with charge after all.

But with the rest of the pirate cards that were released Patches is probably the most commonly seen legendary from the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan.

If you want to play pirates, you need this guy. He shoots out of a cannon when you play a pirate and starts charging face.
