I think this time it will actually be few days because there are tons of new cards that counter pirates and people who are still playing pirate decks are completely idiots who don't know to enjoy the game and play just to win and reach legend. Whatever blizzard nerfs, there will still be those douchebags and that we can't help right now. They will probably disappear when hs reach that level where you need to have high skills in order to win the game.
BREAKING NEWS: SOMEONE IS SURPRISED AND SALTY THAT AGGRO IS THE BEST ARCHETYPE TO USE AT THE START OF A NEW EXPANSION!
I can't fault you much if this is your first time experiencing a HS expansion launch, but yeah, this is how it is. Every time. Pirate Warrior is a good Aggro deck and that certainly helps, but I've seen Aggro Hunter (Quest, duh), Shaman (Murloc variety), and even PALADIN. Once decks are refined and the (copious) anti-aggro tools are fully integrated, then you can judge the state of the meta.
Pirate warrior isn't going anywhere unfortunately. It does have to deal with more hate cards though, and many more taunts than before. This should make the deck more frustrating to play, and lets face it, it was already boring as hell to play, so I think in the long run we will see less of them around, but it will remain a top tier deck.
Taunt Warrior is a joke, Quest Rogue the new Tier 0.
COnfirm this. I play CW since Naxx times and my taunt warrior have trouble with rank 20 lolz. The quest reward is opposite of the Rogue reward. It sound awesome but you must have a board otherwise if your opponent can spam board it useless.. King mosh and whirlwind can win back anyboard but the draw dependent.
Pirate warrior is practicaly gone. Yes there are still losers playing it, but they lose all the time and they eventually disappear. Rogue or Shaman quest runs over them with ease.
I'm already tired of The Caverns Below. I'm facing perhaps 75% rogues, at least 30 just today. Exactly 100% of them has used 2 Shadowstep before turn 3. It's just ridiculous.
It is pretty annoying to run up against BM'ing Pirate Warriors at like rank 13. I get it, I know people will play it because it works and maybe didn't even buy Un'goro packs, but I still think that if you're tryharding in the middle ranks on Day 1 of the new expansion you are lame as f*ck.
After trying really hard to make it work, I can say that the Mage Quest sucks hard. While sure, it is fun when you pull off the 2TK, its just too slow and inconsistent compared to any of the other quests being played (Rogue, Warrior, Hunter). Key problem is that you just can get the extra spells, but if they're late game cards, you're dead before you can play them. Maybe someone will find a build that work, but right now I'd say it definitely isn't living up to the hype.
It amazes me how people can start crying after one day.
and yes I agree ....... IT HAS NOT EVEN BEEN A DAY!!!
Until the meta settles down people are playing what they are familiar with or they are trying new decks, it's one or the other. People like myself do not want to spend there 10k dust until they see whats working well, I hate blinding dust spending early then a week later everything I crafted isn't whats working well so ...... I modified my Water Warrior deck and am doing GREAT with it at the moment.
My new build is giving me Turn 5-6 kills quite often, a lot of the quest decks are trying to get the quests to go off and by time this happens I am killing them. Stop crying and play the god damn game because after ONE DAY you do NOT have a clearly defined meta lol ONE DAY? Remember last expansion the first few days Jade Druid was dominating the first week or so and then Pirate Warrior was born and Jade Druid fell off, just go play the game and stfu and let the meta actually form before you start crying.

PS: So far I am enjoying this expansion, has a lot of interesting concepts in it, and I think this meta game is going to be a lot of fun.

I remember when MsOG came out. Everyone was saying: "WAIT TILL THE META SETTLES" We've waited, and waited, and waited.. Nothing happened and pirates and other aggro crap was still played in masses.
One thing I dont like is how fast some class can complete their quest. I played all day and Rouges completed their quest by turn 4 - 5.
As a priest I find this next to impossible to deal with.
Honestly, I noticed that the priest quest doesn't really give that big of an win condition. It feels more like I can stall for more time, thats it.
The Priest quest is by far the worst of the bunch and it's not even close. Honestly I thought that'd be the power level of the other quests but it seems incredibly skewed.

Yeah, good thing the meta not ended up being Pirates and Jades in the end.. oh wait, yes it did. Same thing happened, people like you started yelling "it's gonna change", well guess what, nothing happened. Reno, Jade and Pirate decks were OP and stayed OP, barely leaving any space for other archetypes.
Stop being a hypocrite and realise already that "ITS BEEN ONLY ONE DAY" is not a solution to the problem. If 2/3 of my games are against the same old broken shit RIGHT AFTER THE NEW EXPANSION, then something is horribly designed. I don't mind aggro being in the meta, but I mind it being the most oppressive broken tier 1 crap. Funny how you said "let the meta form" when you are the one keeping it stale.
