always have been pretty much this way, I'd rather it is pretty diverse. rogues, druids, priests, locks. priests actually have 2 different decks, druids actually 3 (agro, jade and big). I have seen some control locks, I am stuck in between 1-3 for quite a while
Well 7 other classes and 21 Games against the same Decks from the 3 Classes (Jade, Tempo Keleseth and Highlander Priest) been a while since i played against Aggro Druid or a Big Priest (acutally even worse than Highlander Priest).
It's a good thing we got new cards coming. I am extremely bored with this meta. I haven't played last 2 weeks except the quests. Only new decks in the meta are keleseth priest and silence priest which are the same tempo deck with different class and old deck I played a lot returning to the meta. I'm gonna wait for the new set.

Sorry for my stupid Question, but i did not play since may: What are these "BIG" decks everyone is talking about? Half a year ago this was no archetype
A lot of different slow decks relying on big threats of the past could have been called "BIG." The druids cheat out big minions early through manaramp, and the priests use Barnes and Shadow Essence along with resurrects like Eternal Servitude.
Wow you faced literally all classes in so few matches! Your tracker is most diverse Rank 5+ I have ever seen since Standard existed. Not sure what's the issue?
It´s a personal issue because it isn´t fun playing against the same decks where i have a bad matchup at the start. Highlander Priest´s are always extremly lucky and get their combos on curve mostly, Jade Idols are just Jade Idols and every second Tempo Rogue has his Keleseth,Shadowstep combo on turn 1-2. Casual is also always F2P Players which isn´t fun to play against because it´s not a challenge beating a F2P Deck or either Meta Decks like i listed before. I don´t face alot of Big Priests but when i do then i just concede since i can´t win against them. 4 Mana summon a 8-10 Mana Minion is kinda strong.
From 5 to Legend is where the true grind is, so when it comes down to the last week of a Season everyone start to only play the most efficient decks in order to max out their time and try to reach Legend. As a result of this, the Ladder is reduced to a spam of the same 2-3 decks.
Untill they'll change how the Ladder works, it will be like this forever because it's a direct consequences of the grind necessary to overcome the last ranks.

For what profit is it to a man, if he gains the world and loses his own soul?
I play only custom decks, and yeah, at 5-Legend it's all Tryhard netdeckers playing Rogue, Druid and the occasional Priest. Ladder is truly frustrating for me at least.
having the same decks over and over is great because you can tech against them. use that to your advantage!
u can´t tech against Priest getting his Raza/Anduin on curve or Jade Druid playing his Idols (Geist only works if u draw him and it´s mostly only in control decks and they lose to Priest and Rogue). Teching against Rogue playing his Keleseth, Shadowstep on turn 1-2 also doesn´t work. 1 Week before where i got to Rank 1 the ladder was fun because many played also Warrior,Paladin and Control Mage but now it´s pure cancer decks only. Well i don´t have the time to grind to legend for a cardback anyways so it´s not that big of a deal but playing Hearthstone against players isn´t fun at all.
True but i don´t own most core legendarys that big druid needs... i will just grind the last 100 games for warlock with Zoolock and maybe even reach Legend at the end of the month (most likely it will end up like last season and i get a lose streak 2 games before legend)
I’m at rank 10 and can safely say 90% of games are raza priest, Jade Druid, Aggro Druid, and tempo rogue. I have no idea why it’s these 4 decks that are so popular, they definitely aren’t the 4 best decks in the game. Decks like murloc pally and zoo are really good but people either aren’t playing them, or I’m just not queueing into these players.
That's ranked ladder for you. Efficient power decks will always dominate the upper tiers of ranked play. That's the way it's always been and will always be.

Hello,
Am i the only one at rank 3 (currently switching between 4-3) who has to play against the 3 same decks and classes?
always have been pretty much this way, I'd rather it is pretty diverse. rogues, druids, priests, locks. priests actually have 2 different decks, druids actually 3 (agro, jade and big). I have seen some control locks, I am stuck in between 1-3 for quite a while
That's actually happening on 10-5 too. Big priest, aggro, jade and big druids and prince rogue.
Sometimes a zoolock appears.
Lies, I see warrior and hunter in there.
And a Mage!

Turns out, when you push certain archetypes, they become OP, and people play them. A lot!
