 Had pretty good run with 

I haven't tried to reach legend for the last 4-5 Seasons, since i mostly grinded Arena for my full Collection. With this done i don't Need to Play Arena that often anymore and maybe i will try it to legend again. But actually i enjoy playing Arena more than ladder, since on ladder it is always the same decks you face and it is often more about the match-ups than the way to Play. So i will decide when i reach rank 5. Right now it Looks great with Midrange Druid.

Capped out at rank 2 last season, though I didn't play that much so I will try to get it this month I would love to work on getting a golden hero, but I don't have more than like 150 wins on anything. Like 130 on Paladin and like 110 on Druid. Everything else is sub 100 haha.

 Whole fucking ladder is full of priests. How well you do is more about how many horrendous matchings you get more than anything else. When you play a session and auto lose all  the time, switch decks and then get different counter decks there's not much you can do.

just saw the new announcements. happy for more deck slots but I Despise the new changes coming. Taking away adventures and old cardpacks? greedy imo.

 Don't think it's greedy. It would be greedy if they kept introducing more cards and forcing everyone to buy everything to keep up. This will give new players a chance to be competitive without having to invest a crap ton of money into the game. For someone that has mostly a complete collection, it means I get a new play mode with a few different rules which is all right. I personally don't understand the rage some people are showing towards this.

Legend isnt a grind when you're a pro and do it in 200 games :D

 because belcher and other naxx cards are pretty stapled into the current decks everyone is using. Not being able to use them anymore or the gvg cards is devastating to the meta.

So what happens to this thread after the new format is released?

Are we divided into two thread "Headed for Legend Standard" and "Headed for Legend Wild"

THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS!!!! 

I love this thread and don't want us to be divided. I fear for the day I reach legend. I never want to let go of this thread.

It's not devastating at all. It'll just be a different meta. Plus we are getting a new expansion that will probably plug some holes. The only thing I'm not sure yet is how exactly Wild mode will work going forward. The fact that Arena will be Wild was well gives me some hope that some balance will be considered when printing new expansions. I guess we'll have to see.

 Wild mode will be left to rot and there will be no balance changes to it to incentivise people to play standard. The reason that they can leave arena as wild is because you don't have a free pick of all the imbalanced cards and their combos in arena, only what you are offered.

I think the changes are incredibly scummy. On the one hand I am salivating at the prospect that reno dies next year (although I'm sure they'll just reprint him as such) on the other hand I kind of think I won't be around by then. It's also going to make these 130 expansions a pretty hard sell if you know you can't use them in standard (which eventually will be the only viable mode) until next year. I assume they will do one expansion per year released in the last quarter of the year and all the other shit will be adventures. There's no way they can try to sell multiple 130 card expansions per year surely?

However you look at it the changes are an incredibly bad deal for those who have a big collection and have spent money on the game to make it what it is today. They amount to pure greed, disrespect to all the older players and an admission that blizzard is simply incapable of balancing more that about 250 cards at any one time.

 edit: meh I'm wrong, expansions are instantly playable and reno is still around next year. Absolute disaster on all fronts.

I love the new format!

So much crap has stayed for so long.

going to skip this season and maybe never come back. The game is more about picking a deck and RNG than actually outplaying your opponent. The crap of pala/druid and warlocks over the last few months have really taken out the joy for me

Im gonna try mech rouge ... Thats the last season i will be able to play it.. Lets make it count !

I was stuck in 16-17 using zoo/tempo/secret/anyfin

So I switched over to control wallet warrior and I am moving up fine now

my fav control warrior combo is :

Alex them to 15 health.

Use ysera awakens and grom to kill 

I hit 14*1, but back to 15*1...

Playing Dragon Priest and some Hybrid Druid.

Last season I was rank 7 on day 7 with RenoLock somehow, so, might just go back to that.
