So... I have started playing Pirate Warrior again.... Have people just forgot how OP they are? I have moved from rank 20 to rank 10 with 0 loses. Lots of quest rogues and aggro hunters. Played against a few Aggro Locks and and Quest Warriors but they didnt seem to stand a chance.

Of course it is cancer, so is every other meta we face but we all are trying to reach legend correct?

I'm happy you were able to move up to R10 so quickly. Congrats.

Personally, I would rather play a deck I enjoy (I don't enjoy aggro.) and lose more often than play some other decks (e.g. Pirate Warrior, Quest Rogue, Aggro. Druid) and "win" more often.

Just my opinion obviously.

I totally understand.
I enjoy creating fun and unusual decks but seeing we have 2 weeks till new season I decided to try an old deck with a little flavor

Not sure if the question is only a rhetorical one or if you are genuinely wondering if others are playing a Tier1 deck?

We are not even 10 days away from next season, and that's usually when the horde of Aggro decks are erupting back, as everyone tries to reach the highest rank possible within the smallest amount of time. Every season, first and last week are predominantly aggro's week. Don't worry buddy, sooner or later, you'll face some.

I'm sorry, but I'm really confused, when did Pirate Warrior go away? I can't believe I missed that time of Hearthstone, Jesus I would have loved to be around in that time o.O . I don't think anyone forgot how powerful it is, otherwise I would run into them. It's just a shame it's so powerful it even seems play in Casual Mode, which is what makes me think, are people really that desperate?

Sorry to hear that you run into these cancerous decks so often.
I havent seen pirates unless they are apart of an evolution shaman deck or a quest rogue.
Quest rogues in my opinion are the ones that are still more cancerous than pirates.

Well, that's not so obvious. I'm not and never will be playing this deck (pirate warrior I mean). What's true, I used to play it, but it was before Gadgetzan. I stopped when I saw how OP this is. I don't like OP decks.
