I totally agree with you :) Decision Making skills are way more important in LoR & MtG, but in LoR's case, you aren't forced to skip rounds because of Mana Flood/Screw.
As you said, I consider LoR as the sweet-spot between HS and MtG. So I think they will share a part of the same playerbase, outside the main HS's core, i.e. Casual-gamers.
I don't think the average HS player will enjoy LoR as much as HS. LoR gameplay is more similar to MTG, so MTGA players will fit better into it.
Personally, I hate to be interrupted every time I play a card and it makes me feel really nervous. The HS flow is fast and straight, and casual players (especially from mobile) will still prefer HS because of his simplicity.
The card that every Druid was needing! This quest will work in either aggro & control archetypes because of the choose one cards versatility. Also Worthy Expedition & Hidden Oasis are a major buff to the Malfurion's card pool.
Here we go again...
Damn, just embarrassingly strong. Infinite combo possibilities with myra's...
This deck seems a little all over the place here. What is the purpose of Former Champ in the deck?
Pogo Hopper will be much better with the Carpet after the buffs. Why Violet Haze? You don't appear to have any other Deathrattle syneries for this card to be much use.
You have a pretty low curve and tempo-based, so the likelihood of getting much joy from the giants is probably fairly low. You'd need a full hand (which is possible later with the Shark and Miscreants, etc, but by then the giant loses it's impact. Look at what other battlecry cards you could consider perhaps?
Some better options for bouncing the Pogo would probabyl help you here. Something like Brewmaster or the 3/2 chap who bounces minions back (I forget the name). Maybe even a Vanish or two would help here as well.
Former Champ is usually very good in many situations when you play tempo Spirit of the Shark. Or, you can profit by evolving the 1/1 into a 6 or 7 mana drop with the Witchy Lackey.
Don't forget that you have access to Shadowstep, so you can do a lot of bizarre plays with the cards that I mentioned... Anyway, you'll generate a lot of 1-drops to slam with the Magic Carpet :))
@Scorpyon I tried many Pogo archetypes... For exaple: Vanish, Lab Recruiter, and control package seems very slow to me. Perhaps they are true AAA cards, but in my opinion they just doesn't fit in this meta. Bouncing pogo looks like a tempo loss to me, also shuffling them in the deck isn't always the best choice in a lot of matchups.
That's why I made this deck. Where Pogo is just a good alternative in the late game instead of your main strategy. Togwaggle's Scheme is a very versatile card indeed, you can play it on Pogo-Hopper, Mountain Giant, Heistbaron Togwaggle or even Zilliax, and is even stronger after the Myra's Unstable Element plus the [Hearthstone Card (tak nozwhiasker) Not Found]'s effort.
More problematic than dr7

100% true, but the game will lasts forever.
Oh sure, it's a fast-paced meta!
I meant gameplay feels mechanically slow to me. The flow of the game exaust my will to play pretty fast...
Imagine how a Control Shadow-Freljord mirror would look like, we'll regret old Control Warrior ones lol
Great game with beautiful design, but it feels damn slow, isn't it?
Also, no packs hype FML.
Different Games,
Different Audiences.

Anyway LoR still a 10/10 AAA game, gratz to Rito.
Try doing the following changes:
-1 Walk the Plank +1 Sap
-1 Fan of Knives +1 Blade Flurry

Removal or something else? We'll see :DD

I don't like to waste my time downvoting someone else.
If I totally disagree with the post, I usually prefer to express my opinion about it.
You should not care about what peoples do, because sometimes they don't have any good damn word to say.
Summon 100 dust.
Newcomers will get at least 8 legendaries GG
Thank you for mentioning my list <3
Thank you for the constructive feedback!
turn 2: 2-mana Violet Haze +2 cards, isn't too bad...
Violet Haze is a card generator, I like the idea of getting 2 minions for 2 mana. Mountain Giant can be played on turn 4, if you get the perfect curve... Also there are many other card generators, as Ravencaller, EVIL Miscreant, EVIL Cable Rat, Barista Lynchen and Tak Nozwhisker.
Former Champ is usually very good in many situations when you play tempo Spirit of the Shark. Or, you can profit by evolving the 1/1 into a 6 or 7 mana drop with the Witchy Lackey.

There are very few cards that would fit in this kind of "Zoo" list. I'm testing some other valuable battlecry option as Arena Fanatic, Novice Engineer and Frostwolf Warlord.
You said that "getting much joy from the giants is probably fairly low", I suggest you to try this list before... but be careful to not overdraw lol
I'm having tons of fun with this deck, I suggest to try it before Carpet get nurfed lol
