So at this point, should I be crafting class epics that will never rotate(like tyrion, antonidas, van cleef) and stuff like Rag/Alex that will always be useful universal epics

Generally, you want to start by crafting useful neutral legendaries, since you can use them in multiple decks, so you'll get the most use out of them. So I'd start by getting Ragnaros, Sylvanas, Leeroy, Harrison, Thalnos, and maybe Cairne, since I think those are the best neutral legends right now, assuming you play Standard. If you're in Wild, maybe Alex and Ysera are also good? I don't know that much about Wild. After that, starting getting the legends for the specific classes you want to play; these'll increase the power you get in those decks, but there's less likely to be useful in other decks, so they're less of a priority- VanCleef, Grom, and Tirion are probably the best class legendaries, since they're played in basically every deck of those classes. Antonidas is good, but you can make good Mage decks without him; it's a lot harder to make a good Paladin deck without Tirion.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

I have everything with a strike through it. I also have Justicar and Black Knight i think. And nzoth andtwin emp(what a mistake).

Also Boom for wild. Baron geddon too.

Also have velen, huhuran, and paletress.

So the advice is craft nothing from TGT, Craft Classic neutrals/class cards. Then any big name Old Gods?

that's probably the correct order. tirion is by far the best classic class legendary, followed by antonidas. would've said jaraxxus previously but he's fallen out of favor with this meta

Twin Emp is great in C'Thun Warrior and C'Thun Priest; I don't know if it's fast enough outside of a Control shell, though, but great value. N'Zoth is probably the best of the Old Gods, basically. Harrison is super good right now, since the top decks are Shaman, Warrior, Paladin, and Rogue, all of which have some amount of dependency on their weapons; I'd be tempted to craft that first. Tirion is super good; it's the best classic class legendary, like Reck says; basically every Paladin deck except for the most face-rush aggro will play Tirion in it. Grommash is probably second best, and the best finisher in most Warrior decks, but you already have it. Antonidas is fantastic in Tempo and Midrange Mage decks, but neither is really good right now; Freeze Mage is probably the best mage build, and most aren't running Antonidas at all. VanCleef is probably necessary in almost every Rogue deck. The rest aren't that great, I don't think; Cenarius sees some play in Ramp Druid, but that's not fantastic.

From TGT, I think basically Justiciar is the only one that sees real play. Varian sees some play in Tempo Warrior, and Gormok sees some play in Zoo. From Old Gods, there's Twin Emperor in Control Cthun, N'Zoth in build-around decks, Malkorok in Tempo Warrior, Fandral in Druid, and Light Rag in Control Paladins.

I think those are the best of the ones you don't have. Alex isn't that great in Standard right now, but maybe it's good in Wild. Rag and Harrison are both really good in both right now, though.

Ysera is really underrated right now, IMO. She's not seeing much play, but she's still p good.

Does Alex even get played in Dragons? I thought Ysera, Deathwing, and Nefarian were above it in that list. Control Warriors aren't even running Alex for being too bad tempowise. I think it's basically just Freeze at this point? At least in standard.

what is wallet warrior?
Predictable, really I suppose. It was an act of purest optimism to have posed the question in the first place.
