Wtf. I finally get what is possibly one of the strongest openings: Turn 1 Northshire Cleric into turn 2 coin elixir (+2/+2 and deathrattle return to hand) He draws his 2/2 elemental that gives a spell and gets silence of all things plus a injured blademaster to top it all off.
Doesn’t help that he drafted like 5 copies of thoughtsteal and devourmind and the little 1/1 steal your shit elementals and beat me with my own deck.
pretty sad when you can't even play a fun deck in wild at rank 25 anymore because it's just littered with morons playing big priest and jade druid. lmao, standard is no different tbh just other tier 1 netdecks, I really do feel sorry for new players who have little to no collection, their experience must be awful.

First defeat - shaman with master of realities, second defeat - priest with Murozond (or smth like that), third defeat - shaman with master of realities. Turns out I suck at arena, because I picked shaman and wasn't offered to pick master of realities even once.
So here I am, having fun at rank 3 with my Midrange Liam-Pirate Paladin when I am suddenly topdecking 5 turns in a row hoping to find 1 of my 2 Divine Favors still in my deck. As I drew Marin the Fox, kill the treasure and got the card that draws and... well you can see the screenshot for the rest.
FML
OMG!!! That might be the worst luck I've seen.
You can't do anything but laugh at that terrible series of events.

What the fuck is wrong with this game?? Two consecutive games against even locks and BOTH had 2 of their mountain giants out by turn 5. What the fuck blizzard this is not fucking happening !!!?? You can’t have this unlucky streak that’s been going on with me over the past 24 hours FOR REAL. Seriously fuck everybody and especially fuck you high rollers.
Even locks hard mulligan for Giants and draw 2 cards a turn. They also run 2 giants. You do the maths.

Fuck knows what it would be like starting over now, mind you all the experience that you have racked up since beta means fuck all anyway.
Burn mage is such a lovely deck to play against. You really get the feeling you're playing against a chimp.
Although it does make you feel good when you happen to run into one of those rare games where you survive against their onslaught AND happen to kill them with the OTK you're running xD
Two defiles. Hellfire. LK. T5 bane of doom into Illidan. Later free bane of doom into a decent demon. Two good DK cards from LK. Yup, just an average day at 2-1. How do you hit 12 wins again? Bearing in mind this opponent was also someone who'd lost games?
That's incredible!
As to your question, I think the key is to join the sniper guild and carry your run by sniping Kripp til you hit 12 wins :P
I had a nice, long win streak going and what happens? I think the asylum let folk out on a day pass. What do I see? They're twitchy, dribbly and do the same thing ALL the friggin' time.

RNG wins - You lose!
I made an account on EU to try the new player experience I found I had to ignore trading and focus as much face as possible just to get a win.
I have coin and doomsayer in hand. Rest is 3+ cost spells. Decide not to play doomsayer cause i think i can get more value.
Turn 2: 1/1 divine shield and 2/1 give a minion +2 atk.
I play doomsayer
Turn 3: another archerus for a total of 7 damage on the boeard on TURN 3! I concede.
Game 2: cancer face hunter
Turn 1: i have doomsayer in hand and pass.
Mole rat
Turn 2: i decide not to play doomsayer cause theres only a 1 drop
Crackling adapts mole rat for 3+ attack. 7 dmg on the board ON TURN 2!!!!!
I pass cause wtf im dead anyway.
Turn 3: pass.
animal companion for leok.
Turn 4 pass
Plays give beast 2/2 and taunt. I die turn 4.
This game has devolved into a face fest with all the top decks being fast face decks and if you do not play a deck like them you will die turn 5 EVERYTIME. I even played kingsbane with deadly poison x2 plus lifesteal in another game vs rogue. Keep clearing the face minions? Doesnt matter. Dead turn 5.
Yay so much fun to sit there and watch people go braindead with 1 drops and 2 drops and get rewarded for it and winning turn 5 even if you draw perfectly. Who needs more than 5 mana anyway? Hahahhhahahahahahhaahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahqhahahahahahwhrujdjdejdnfifntjgoggjdnej
So I'm playing Machamp's Hybrid Hunter deck, and I'm playing a Priest with an Awaken the Makers quest. He hasn't made his quest and it's going well. I get my Deathstalker Rexxar early at turn 5 by playing the Coin, and I whittle him down to about 10 points while I've still got my full 30, when he makes his quest with a couple of hard taunts on the field.
Still, I persevere; I'm making Zombeasts like crazy and his deck is almost gone. I know there's another Amara coming, but I'm buffed and armored when he plays Alexstrasza and cuts half my health. I figure, no problem - he's at 5 points AND he runs out of cards and takes 1 fatigue hit. He plays the last Amara for another 40 health. I've still got about 15 cards and I'm making Zombeasts, and I figure I can knock him back down again while the fatigue gnaws him away.
Nope. The next turn, the asshole plays Archbishop Benedictus, throws up a wall of taunt and just starts eating me with the Voidform. I took 110+ health away from this motherfucker and he still killed me... in a Rank 20 Standard game.

Really, I mean WTF?
I feel for you. I've run into the exact same type of scenario myself. It is games like those that convince me that the power creep for warlock, priest, and mage control decks are just too high. Even in wild you will never be able to see something like control pally, control rogue, control druid, etc pull off anything as absurd as the value that those three decks manage to pull off. It doesn't help that T5 is so bright that they just keep vomiting these intense value cards into those three class' laps in particular.
Nothing like painting your game's design into a corner to increase the likelihood of players hating going up against a third of the classes in your game.

2-3 run in arena.

First brawl:
My spells: every terrible hunter spell you can imagine.
Opponent: 2x crushing walls, call of the wild and KC.
He played terrible. But crushing walls is a pretty great card in this brawl.
Edit: Oh, and I lost every possible RNG situation in the game. Every single one.
Fuck knows what it would be like starting over now, mind you all the experience that you have racked up since beta means fuck all anyway.

Next turn, he plays Amara, Warden of Hope and buffs his hero back up to 40, followed immediately by a Baleful Banker on it. Then he gets Shadowreaper Anduin and pretty much clears my field.
