Do you guys think that Blizz will continue its sh*tty practice of letting streamers and youtubers play the expansion couple of days before it actually releases for the rest of us plebs?
I always find it so annoying that if I want to experience the expansion fresh and try brewing my own decks, I basically have to stop going to youtube for a couple of days, because my recommended section will be full of clickbaity videos from creators with titles like "This new druid is amazing" or "The new hunter cards are broken" or something like that, that will inevitably spoil the expansion.
Who cares if they let a few people play the expansion before it's released? It's a great way to market their product.
If you don't want your experience of the expansion to be spoiled, there's a simple solution: don't watch the videos. In my view, most of the decks that streamers (and people in general) try out on the first week or two are either not particularly good or are, at the very least, unrefined. Nothing's stopping you from creating your own deck: just don't expect it to be competitive in the long run. (Nothing personal: the fact is no single person is capable of competing with the entire community in refining a basic deck archetype.)
allmost all of the deck there play is what is played after... sure its not 100% updated with the right card yet but the core cards is in it 20-25 cards

dude shut up about it, every expansion, always the same silly question jesus
There is a Theorycrafting stream period tomorrow. So yes: Things will be spoilt.
But you can get Twitch drops by watching, so there's at least some gain for watching it this time. :)
If you see a bad post on the forum use the report function under it, so I or someone else of the moderation team can take care of it!

Marketing is a thing.
Rarely are those decks actually good
