As the subject says. Why isn't anyone playing zoo?
In my last 100 games in Standard, I've faced Zoo once. This is on ranks 4-6. Looking at the matchups I'm getting, you'd think that Zoo would make a killing. Aggro and Midrange Shaman combined with Hunter makes up 50% of the games I've played. Add rogue and pirate warrior, and zoo would have great matcups against 2/3 of the current meta. Yet no one is playing it.
Anyone care to explain what I'm missing here? Are all zoo players legend already?
edit: Didn't think of druid, so that 2/3 should be 3/4..
Zoo and shaman are 80% of my games at eu rank 3 atm.I don't know what you are talking about.Propably troll.
Seriously?
Not trolling, I've faced just a single zoo in the last 100 games. Currently EU rank 4. I've met 3 Renolocks, though. As I'm playing Tempo Warrior myself, that's obviously slightly frustrating..
All this talk of Zoo on here yesterday and I felt like playing it when I got home from work. Went on a tear and jumped 4 levels cause I won like 8 or 10 games straight!
It's insane. I haven't faced a single zoo since I posted this thread. Plenty of Renolocks, Yogg Druids and Control Warriors though (as well as Midrange Shaman and Hunter of course).
I am seriously starting to doubt the ladder matchmaking :/
Can understand why you'd think I am trolling, but I'm not.
Betrayer... In truth, it was I who was betrayed. Still, I am hunted. Still, I am hated. Now, my blind eyes see what others cannot: that sometimes the hand of fate must be forced! Now go forth... unleash the tides of Doom... Upon all those...who would oppose us.
Played another 40 games today. Not a single zoo. While my alternate universe meta seems to be pretty diverse, I would appreciate getting the same treatment as everyone else and get zoo matchups.
I'm finding this quite ridiculous. Now it's nearly 150 games with just a single zoo. Not exactly many other favorable matchups for Tempo Warrior in there either. C'Thun Druid and the shamans are the only ones, I believe :(
Zoolock is my most common matchup by faaar, I'm playing around rank 10-8 though, maybe more here idk...but rarely do I go 3 games without seeing a Zoolock and often I face them 3 times in a row....I guess I'm on the completely other side of the coincidential specter :p

What is Hearthstone to you? A fun and semi-competitive game with wacky effects and crazy RNG outcomes or just a card game you wanna grind as many wins you can get as fast as possible in?
I was playing midrange hunter and I tech'd in a lot of anti zoo cards like explosive trap, power shot, unleash the hounds etc until I stopped seeing zoo, so I imagine they were pretty much hated out of the meta? idk

2 days ago 25% of my match ups were zoo, 21% warrior, 16% shaman, 12% Druid
Yesterday: 32% warrior, 21% zoo, 18% shaman, 16% Druid, 11% Hunter
I guess more people just started playing warrior that's all

Your just getting lucky as I'm also getting plenty of Zoolock and Aggro Shaman. RNG strikes again!
Wouldn't call it lucky when zoo is my best matchup :P
But good to hear, then I can have hopes that the trend will change when I can play again tomorrow :)
You're lucky. I see them all the time, son.

Far from gone. Many seem to be playing Shaman or Warrior though.

I hit legend with zoo this season. That's where it went
Golden Heroes: Rogue, Paladin, Mage, Warlock. A two time Legend player.Favorite card: Reno Jackson

It's all Zoo, Shaman and Huntards..
You are lucky.

The classic tier: Reno Jackson | Elise Starseeker | Brann Bronzebeard.
meta is cthun warrior, zoo and shaman over and over, EU rank 3
In NA i'm facing a lot of Shamans; Renolock and Zoo
In EU a LOT of Warriors
Meanwhile, I am back to rank 6 now, having not seen a single zoo since rank 4, 5 stars.
edit: And just one since I was rank 6 last time.

7 Druid (4 C'Thun, 1 Token, 1 Malygos, 1 Dragon)
6 Hunter (Midrange)
4 Mage (Tempo)
2 Priest (Control)

That is quite a coincidence!

27 more games today without seeing zoo.
I no longer believe this is RNG.
