Hi been out for a month and a half and i just returned yesterday. I just wanted to know what the meta is like, what are the top classes right now and what OP combos (if any) now stand? So far all I have seen is stuff about Pirates being OP. I only opened 40 packs and i got 3 legendaries. I got a normal Aya Blackpaw and a golden one and my third legendary is Mayor Noggenfogger which i knew instantly was useless when i opened it. So what are the must craft legendaries? Finally I would just like to know if everyone is enjoying themselves with Hearthstone right now is the game fun for you?
As far as the meta goes, it is more diverse than ever. It is splitted into: aggro pirate warrior/rogue, aggro pirate/jade shaman, dragon priest (tempo), jade druid (ramp druid with jade golems) and finally the reno control decks where renolock stands out. Don't remember if there was any other meta deck.
As far as OPness, savjz and reynad reached legend #1 with renolock and both claim it is the most powerful deck when played right. Can be a bit hard to learn though. Honorable mention from reynad in favor of aggro jade shaman since he used it to ladder from rank 15 to 4 in asia server in a matter of hours.

Really happy to hear Renolock is doing well. I stopped playing it at 400 wins because it was very playing the same old Zoo and Standard Reno was boring at the time. Thanks for that because like I said all I heard about was Pirate Warriors and Rogues.
All value control decks are dead, as the ultimate fatigue deck has come and it has no weakness to any other of its kind.
Other than that it's fairly varied. Mostly aggro and tempo variants, some combo decks or decks with combo finishers (druid / renolock) also make it.
Shaman is still tier 0... aggro shaman and jade shaman.
Mage, hunter and paladin are in the dumpster.
The ultimate fatigue deck? Are you talking about Jade Golems or some new crazy Warrior deck? Its a shame Paladin is still in the dumps but i guess they still have bad Karma from the Secret Pally days lol. Tanks for the update!

Control decks aren't dead at all. Control warrior is. Renolock is the best deck ATM, if that isn't control I have no clue what it is... it does have a combo win condition, but that is one of the win conditions.
On topic: If you like reno decks, this is the time to craft kazakus and go crazy, cuz the deck is fun as hell. Otherwise there is jade druid/shaman, pirate warrior/shaman/rogue (it's falling out of favor already) and dragon/reno priest.
There is combo druid (aviana + kun + c'thun), which counters renolock pretty hard, not sure how they manage with the rest of the meta.
Been sticking with old school Midrange Shaman, which has a lot of rough matchups right now.
Changed things around with a build that hopefully works.
There are a lot of ways to make tokens right now in Shaman. I'm running a Bloodlust/Thunderbluff build may go full Bloodlust. Jade Claws, Maelstrom Portal, and Jade Lightning all make tokens to Bloodlust. Considering Barnes as a token generator prolly better then Jinyu.
Also got a Jinyu Waterspeaker to stabilize. May not be worth it unless I add 7/7 and Rag tho.
Acidic Ooze for weapons.
Al'Akir over Ragnaros. Too many opponents seem to be able to have a decent board I can't easily remove late game.
Tips/ideas? no one is playing Midrange right now so it's on your own to figure out.

There's also the Kun combo druids?
Renolock is the deck to beat, it destroys everything else, and there is no better emote than " I will feast on your soul this Winter veil!" XD
Alright, but rough

Good, except for pirates and jade.
Jade destroys control and pirates are cancer.
Fuck cubelock
