Omfg just pulled off most disgusting secret proc-ing ever :D checked for Vaporize/Ice Barrier then for Mirror Entity, so far nothing and i had 2 mana left and Gurubashi Berserker out so i Wrath it for 1 mana and draw ... Spellbender activated and got 1 dmg so he was on 2hp so i killed him with my Gurubashi and Duplicate proced :DDDDD i was like "sry dude, srsly sry" :DDD that was probably THE least value that u could have gotten from those secrets :D
I was on 9 HP as Warlock against Priest and he had empty board while I had 3 minions on board with lethal next turn. I was like "No way he can burst me from 7" so I tapped greedily only for him to play Rag and get the 1 in 4 for my face

hehe nasty ... i rly hate priests lately in arena, 50% velens 150% mindcontrol ... i lost like 7 games to priest due to mindcontrol ONLY (and at least 4 of them was topdeck) and one that was most painfull was fatigue ... i had Stormwind Champion in hand and he had one last card which i knew was MC ... so i played him and let him steal it cause i wasnt able to outlast him with his +2hp/turn :X qq me :)
Had a really good mage draft with 3 snowchuggers and 1 water elemental, a great curve, lots of removal, lots of quality minions, loatheb, flamestrike etc.
Played against lots of druids at 7-11 wins. One druid was perma frozen since turn 2 with snowchuggers, couldn't remove it by the time my other snowchuggers and water elemental went on the board. Felt pretty bad for the opponent. The mage deck went 11-3 final boss was mage with lots of flamestrikes and fireballs.
Yes Chuga Chuga r awesome and funny minions :D iv had 3 of them and i got them all early, so pally i played against used his 1st stack of truesilver and then for like 12 rounds he wasnt able to attack with it anymore cause he couldnt clear all my "freeze" minions (some water ele followed) and i was like "haha dude, u aint gona attack this game anymore" ... well then he droped Deathwing and i lost :D
Druid that double innervated sunwalker on T2. It was at 6 wins or something, I'm not sure how far he got since I'd see his innervates being dead draws very often. If you can pull stuff like that off I guess 12 wins is smooth sailing though. :p
It can be pretty disgusting even innervate 3drop ... druid innervated Ogre Brute or Demolisher and there was no way u can win vs that with him having couple wraths/claws in hand as well (and even if he didnt u trade like 3for1 most of the time). One innervate is perfectly fine in arena, two that takes some consideration and three is too many :)

Let's see..... 2 complete BS games in just my last run!
1)
10 mana each.
I am Mage; he is Paladin
Opponent is in fatigue (due to me punishing his earlier Fel Reaver play), and has 1 card remaining in-hand.
I am on 2HP, he is in the teens somewhere. (though in this situation his HP is largely irrelevant)
His board is full (a massive over-commitment), but everything is 4hp or below. Minions of note include a 6/4 Stormwind Champion, and a 5/4 Piloted Shredder
My board comprises an Oasis Snapjaw (he chose not to kill it in the previous turn, a misplay IMHO)
Yep, Millhouse Manastorm. 1 in 67; 1.49% FFS. Screw GvG and its BS rng deathrattles.
:edit: Turns out Gilblin Stalker would have been an unpreventable lethal too - so 2/67; 3%. Three fkin percent... GAH!
2)
I'm at 13hp, have lethal on a Flamestrike-proof board, and have a 5 card advantage.
Opponent (Mage) with 1 card in hand topdecks a Fireball, to do the classic Fireball+ Fireball+ ping.
I wouldn't have minded so much, except earlier in the game I'd schemed supremely to engineer a situation whereby he'd voluntarily trade a Booty Bay Bodyguard into my Spectral Knight to earn me awesome Duplicate value.
The other loss was to a god-tier Paladin deck with all the usuals plus Cairne Bloodhoof, which is fine..... but that was my 0-0 very first match-up!
The deck (which in reality was pretty shitty) ended up going 3-3; though one of the wins was against a Kolento - no idea if it was theKolento. Doubtful as I can't imagine he'd be playing @ 4am EET.
Just got pretty schooled by in mage vs mage mirror :D
He played desperation secret in T4 cause i cleared every single thing he played for first 3 rounds with spells and got 2 nice minions on board and had Kezan Mystic in hand and i was like "oh dude ur f***", stole the secret and it was Mirror Entity and i was like "haha ur soooooooo f***" then he played Explosive Sheep which got coppied by Mirror Entity and cleared my secret and board for 1 card :D that was so sad :D

I was watching old Kripp vods some time ago he pulled similiar thing with Doomsayer except the enemy had a lot of stuff on the board while kripp nothing :D That value.
opponent side: Warrior 6 health (0 cards in hand), fiery war axe+clockwork gnome
my side: Druid 11 health (plenty cards in hand),ancient of lore+keeper of grove+grove tender
on opponent's turn he draws arcane golem, suicides clockwork gnome into my ancient, plays arcane golem, hits my face along with fiery war axe, and guess what?...............
Then he plays the spare part time rewind and gets back the arcane golem for EXACT lethal...
I just beat a guy who turn 3 had innervate, innervate, ancient of lore. ( on 3-2 win record no less lol)
Without using any spells or hard removal on it ( as shaman ). Lol. I had played an axe the previous turn. So I hit it and sent a 2/1 murloc at it, which prompted him to brewmaster his 5/1, in the process losing board control for the entire game despite his ridiculous opener. I took 10 face damage from it but that line was the only possible way I had to win that game and it worked lol. Of course next game I lose to a mage who topdecked direct damage on empty hand for lethal while facing 20+ damage on board. Weee.
I had 2 minions on the board with Rag in hand, but scare to play it with MC fear
He throws down the "I'm Sorry" the whole match.
He throws down the do 5 damage and get 5 health on my minion. He could have killed me.
I ended up winning with some spectral knights and a rag finisher with no minions and 8 health left on him, but he had 3 missed lethals with the I'm sorry emote. I ended with a "Thanks"
I always pick mage if I get the chance. The last 2 mage were 0-3. I pick a warrior and go 8-3.
I never make a mistake, I simply learn what to not do in the future. No more Echo of Copying. Card sat in my hand the whole time.
Just lost to a paladin who played a desperation ragnaros, hit my face ( 1 in 3 ) and then had the truesilver next turn to kill me while I was at 3. Well played, paladin, having 11 points of direct damage on a totally empty board exactly in time not to die.
Yesterday i went vs priest and i dominated board most of the game but Mind Control T10 was in sight and it would swing the game in his favor so i went for T9 Starfire face > T10 Starfire face + Innervate + Starfire face to kill him before that hehe, rage-friend-request followed :D
Guy just had muster for battle turn 3, muster for battle turn 5 and quartermaster turn 6. Yeah muster for battle is a real fair card, especially when you're such a good player as this guy where you draft and draw the perfect epic card at the perfect time in the top half of your deck. I sure feel like MY decisions matter in arena!
Oh I know he got lucky, that's why I'm posting it here. It was ridiculous. That's what this topic is all about I guess? Something like that must happen almost every arena run anyway.
Pally: I drafted 3x Sludge Belcher and along the way i got opportunity to pick two Redemption so i said to myself it would make nice combo and took it. Drafted also 2x Shielded Minibot so Redemptions became pretty valuable. And then it started :D Got out Sludge Belcher with Redemption and hid Cult Master behind it and got 4-8 cards out of it every time (with 1-2 combos :D). Early with minibot was pretty funny too :)

Don't feel bad; the muster + quartermaster combo is wrecking shiz up on ladder too.
I'd be amazed if Blizzard don't rebalance it within a few weeks/months.

I was a warrior vs priest
I had 3 health and 2 armor, 8 cards left
he had 25 health and 10 cards left.
I had 2 minions on the board with Rag in hand, but scare to play it with MC fear
He throws down the "I'm Sorry" the whole match.
He throws down the do 5 damage and get 5 health on my minion. He could have killed me.
