This post is so biased, I could also make a blanket statement about wild that "all you see is Big Priest, Even Shaman and Odd Rogue. So BoRiNg". Half the decks you mentioned have a direct counterpart in standard like APM Priest, Toggwaggle Druid, Evenlock etc..
BTW you missed Reno Priest and Reno Mage, the actual reason why wild is considered better by some people.
This. Stop cherrypicking OP.
Wild is dominated as much by even shaman, odd rogue and big priest, as standard is dominated by hunter, priest and paladin.
And countering all of those is easy peasy because of so many tech cards, gotta love tinkmaster, I feel bad for standard players not realising how damn op he is
Yeah tinkmaster absolutely destroys even shaman and odd rogue. (No)
Piss off, I didn't say that he counters even shaman and odd rogue, deathlord is good against those tho
Yeah deathlord is a great devolve target. Also great at pulling out 5/5s, 7/7s and 8/8s.

this is why I play even lock. you can't devolve a molten giant. make 6 of them with glinda. goodbye devolve :)
Wild Ladder = Standard Ladder (2-3 decks facing each other 50 times in a row, very exciting)
Wild Casual > Standard Casual in my experience. Today I actually saw a C'Thun druid, a dragon warrior, a few dragon priests, an even mage, an even highlander priest, a murloc shaman (though I hated his guts), an Anyfin paladin (at least seemed like it, but the game ended before he played any Anyfin spell) and a quest paladin.
I am not saying there wasn't plenty of Even shaman and Big priest in the mix (because let's face it, there still was), but at least there was something else after those games. Every time I go to Standard Casual, I am greeted by whatever deck people are complaining about, from Cubelock (KnC) to Odd Paladin (WW) to Shudderwock (BDP) to just Hunter decks (now). Casual in Standard is quite literally ladder without stars.

I love playing Wild. Yeah there are alot of even shamans after rank 3 but even then you can tech in aoe board clears to deal with them. Standard has garbage variety in all ranks.

yeah wild casual is usually great for playing homebrew stuff. some days you still run into ladder aggro decks though. I don't get why people play those in wild casual as they can easy win games on ladder with them.

^ This. Standard casual meme decks are extremely restricted. If you're after fun decks I have no idea why some players would go to standard for it, you have net decks in casual in both formats. Might as well have a wider variety of fun in wild.
I see odd mage, cubelock, evenlock, exodia and wrath paladin, control mage, odd paladin, mechathun of all types (even a thun warrior), zoolock, odd rogue, deathrattle paladin and rogue, tempo rogue, odd warrior, rush warrior, even shaman, token shaman, clone priest, control priest etc etc on the standard ladder all the time. I guess I'm missing out the thrill of watching some guy mill my deck with coldlights, or play the same old sad jade druid / big priest BS. After 90 games this season hsreplay still hasn't clocked 20 games against a particular class with my deck of choice in standard. I'm glad you like wild, don't get me wrong, just because you think something is a fact doesn't make it so.

I had a game with a priest that killed me by turning his healing into damage then activating a bunch of death rattles. I was 1 damage off being able to beat him the turn before as well... no idea what the deck was, great game though.
only ever been milled once with cold lights by a mill rogue. I have only played wild for a very short amount of time though.
also I take it you mean rank 5 to legend? laddering is pretty much just spell hunter over and over (or at least it was when I last played standard about 2 weeks ago)
I know standard is great once you get to the top of the ladder, but I really don't play all that many games and usually finish around the 11 or 12 mark. I am gonna try and at least get rank 10 this month though so I have beaten my record. ha ha.
I just find wild ladder to be a lot more fun than standard because in standard the ladder is full of people trying to climb with the same decks about 70% of the time. I normally don't mind it at all, but I have a particular hatred for playing against secret heavy decks, so it's just a no go for me right now.

I've move from rank 6 to 2 in standard. I am guessing that's the corrupted healbot combo (without watching the replay), which was in standard in year of the mammoth. The higher one gets in wild, the more consistent the decks get too. As soon as I hit rank 10 it was the same bs. Maybe the leeching poison nerf had some effect, but everyone and their uncle was playing kingsbane rogue. Otherwise it was a Reno deck, jade druid, big priest, odd rogue or even shaman. The other thing I saw was some midrange hunter. There was obviously the odd weird deck but it was fairly consistent otherwise. Much like standard, where occasionally some guy is playing spiteful zoo or some other bizarre hybrid (elemental mid exodia was another one), but the decks are fairly consistent.
i like wild better just because there is more variety. so many more scenarios to go thru before playing cards. In standard, I can pretty much guess at least 27 out of their 30 cards just by seeing the first 2 cards they play. you have to play with a more evolved deck in wild because you can't just try to counter the 2 to 3 decks that are played in standard.

Oh man watching those confused even shaman players after they devolved a taunted molten giant into a... taunted molten giant is fantastic.

Wild mode. The best.
Pick one.

Wild mode is garbage. Full of newbies/people who suck at this game and it's very easy to climb.
But it's still a good idea to have this mode, so we can use all cards we have
Says a rank 20 wild player, wait until you get to over rank 15, that's when it's actually wild
SO DING DONG YOUR OPINION IS WONG
Skidaddle skidoodle your Milhouse manastorm is now a noodle
Lol you are completely wrong.
Near r10 and further you will find 3/4 decks at most, plus something weird. But still there is a meta.

Im rank 200 wild right now and I only play cause I try to get top 100 for the tourney
