Basically they play a big creature using a turn -> make it useless while putting something on the board -> gain advantage. Putting something on the board is important as druid has strong drawing mechanic so it will probably outdraw you AND put bigger creatures out.

EU loves their druids. I've been running into them more and more in NA as well, and I'm wondering what some counter strategies are.
Druids are very strong right now. Some (neutral) cards that can counter them are:
Sylvanas Windrunner, Tinkmaster Overspark, The Black Knight. Also any card that turns a big creature into a useless one: Hex, Polymorph, to some degree Aldor Peacekeeper. Faceless Manipulator and Mind Control also work quite well.
