The expansion campaign didn't seem as good as the main one, I guess because its not split up into story sections like the main one is and is just a series of the decks. Would have been more fun if it had some new encounters too in my opinion and maybe an info screen like the planeswalkers but explaining a bit baout each guild.

I agree - the original campaign was better because it provided *some* minimal background story on the planeswalkers and that was a cool novelty.  I don't know anything about these guilds and it would have been nice for them to have done something different.

On the whole, though, the expansion rocks - the new decks are great, except for the Izzet deck, which for me is on par with Dragon's Roar from 2012.  I believe I am currently winless online with that deck, and everyone who has played against me online with that deck is also winless against me.  

I want to like it, I really do.  I will try some different builds and I hope I'm just doing something wrong or haven't developed the necessary skillset to play it effectively.  But really - 3 Thunder Dragons?!!  This does not seem playable.  It seems foolish to include even one.  I would have prefered 3 Storm Crow - seriously.  The deck would be substantially better with that switch.  Or I'd prefer they just scrapped the deck entirely and just gave us Cloudburst again, card for card, but with a 'may' effect on Murder of Crows that worked properly.  

However the other 4 decks are outstanding and I hope that the Izzet deck can be figured out.

Balefire is a better analog to Thunder Dragon (same cmc, intended as a sweeper etc.).
Thuindermaw is something you replace Thundermare with.

We don't need to take out big useless stuff and replace it with more big stuff. The deck needs more viable cards that cost less than 3 to cast.

Yeah, that's what you replace Petrahydrox with.
