So i dont really post much on here, but in the last few weeks in casual standard im running into classic only decks about 85% of the time. The players names are almost always just random letters and numbers, N7xG84x for example. Its always only core/classic cards and always seems like they are rigged in that they always have a counter that cancels / kills everything. Im a meme deck player that doesnt do ladder, i like fun off the wall decks and usually doing this in casual works just fine, but lately all these decks have killed the game for me. I did see one post about this before being bots. but it is all i see now, cant all of a sudden be that many bots?
They are bots. My theory is that they are just farming enough dust to craft Whizbang and then they sell the account. I think accounts still get a free name change credit so then it just gets changed to your name. I have noticed a substantial reduction in performance of my F2P decks due to a significant increase in the number of players running Whizbang from 25-20.

Below is a deck i created that i feel was pretty close to some i saw. i played it a couple times and yes it is solid, but really not fun.
Xynot, yes i have also noticed similar decks, but with new names and they change their card back from the classic to the lemonaid card back.
they do seem quite bot'ish' in that they play almost instantly and never emote, i have a quest priest that if i get the upper hand i can win and i make the game last with them at 1 health for 5 plust turns and they never concede.

this is noted as wild, but they are all in standard, playing casual wild i never see these decks.
That's one of the decks for sure. The will emote back occasionally if you spam enough, like 5 or 6 times a turn. They will also concede, but not simply because you have lethal. I usually face them with 'stock' hunter (spellstones, cats, and DK) and I confirm that they are a bot by just manhandling them for several turns despite having lethal (like I sometimes do on PvE Gauntlet in Eternal to see how negative I can get them or how positive I can get my own HP)

What decks are they running that are killing you? Shitty basic decks or some actual decent stuff like Midrange Hunter or Enrage Warrior?
