I think netdecking is fine, but you should learn to play the deck yourself and not from people's guide.
Its pretty much a given that 99% of players do it, even those who would really rather not.
even creators of popular decks get idea's from other decks, but there is really no way of stopping it.
but deck building i feel is such a big part that is just completely overlooked because of online lists, Look at tavern brawl for example the first couple of hours is when all the talented people are thinking up ideas after that anyone not lucky enough to be online at start time will join in, but mostly there will be decks online to copy.
There's nothing wrong with net decking. It would be pretty cool if people played their own decks but when the game rewards winning then playing an already tested deck is the best way to go. At least for those who want to maximize their time/gold when playing the game.
Besides, most popular decks are already fun to play so theres already a ton of decks out there for people to try and play them.
Netdecking is not dishonorable. Netdecking awful stuff like secret paladin IS dishonorable.You can say you are doing it for the wins, of course, but that's what happens with honor, you can succeed without it, and sometimes you'llbe more successfull when you avoid being an honorable person.
On the other hand, having both honor and success feels damn good. It's something I would encourage people to try.

Actually, fuck honor. Netdecking is a mortal sin that requires you to sell your soul to the devil and once you do it the first time, you are lost.
But since I love satan I don't mind doing it.
Netdecking cuts time needed to make and tune up a deck. So no,it is not dishonorable.
Do you know how much time is needed to test and fine tune a completly new deck? I am trying a new idea and it is very time consuming.
But on bright side, people who add you after those games are very intrested and pleasent, even asks for deck list. xD
And yes, some decks build them self, like secret paladin, it needed one more card to make it work great, and they got MC, like someone already mentioned, it built itself, some secrets+MC and some auto-include paladin cards and here you go.
Variation of secret paladin are silly: "Hmmmm.... i will put Ragnoros instead of Tirion.", "Should i put 1 Belcher or 2, or none."
How many netdeckers - let's just say here and nowhere else - actually copy those decks, then tweak, then test, then post feedback and suggestions on them?
You can count those people on one hand. Yourself included probably.
Well, I feel pretty well doing things without playing some of the disgusting decks out there. I suppouse I'm that kind of person, who loves to beat dishonorable decks with something (no matter if netdecked or a variation) more honest.
And of course, as a person, I speak giving my own experience. Other people maybe are more than happy just winning with secret paladin. But then I'm not the one supporting that behaviour, as I think people can perfectly netdeck things funnier and more respectable.

I play some WF and W40k, being my favorites in Fantasy Dwarves and Chaos (specially Slaanesh). In 40k I'm more into Imperial Guard.
Chaos Warriors are freaking cool, so why not let it be my avatar? xD

Few people can really be deck-builders, but many can be deck dimmers. That is to say, many should be able to experiment things, to be able to adapt. You are right: professional players are often better than we are, but that doesn't mean they are flawless, and it doesn't mean that their deck-lists are flawless too. In fact, deck-lists they create are far from being flawless and often/always need to be reshaped to the specific metagame you encounter.
(Actually, it also depends on the lists. Some deck-lists are really closed (ex. combo druid is an almost closed deck-list) while some others are extremely open (ex. Reno Mage).)
About netdecking, i've a quite funny anecdote to tell here.
On rank Legend, a streamer that I was watching encountered a Priest playing Grand Crusader.
When I wondered why, I figured out that the guy stupidly netdecked the deck that Kolento was playing. However, it was Kolento's “challenge Priest” (there was a challenge between some players: achieving r1 Legend with a bad card in the deck).
The guy hasn't been able to understand that Grand Crusader is a bad card — especially for Priest since it's a 6-mana cost card. And just because Kolento was playing it, he thought it was good.
Well me myself. I learn about a concept, and i build around it with my own ideas.
The best hearthstoners are the ones who make their own decks, the people who copy their decks will never be their rank anyways so it truly doesn't matter if its dishonorable or not. People who whine about op decks are just whining.
I think there is nothing wrong with looking for inspiration for your decks, the problem is that most people look for the best decks. I wouldn't net deck a tier one deck, and any deck I do play I put my own spin on it.
I do it also, especialy its case with me becouse i don't have all cards. Lets say I want to play Totem Shaman, I know what main (core) card is for that deck. I come here to check what cards people have put in those decks for early game, what tech and removal cards do they use, see if i have those cards or not, and eventualy test the same deck (if i have all the cards) i find, at the end I always put cards that i feel comfortable to play and love to play.
And to not offend anyone, I am first that doesn't have the time to creat a brand new deck and don't have THAT thought process requirement to make it hapens.
