Fuck the arena bucket garbage.  It's a bad system.  It's awful.  Bring back the old one where cards are just grouped by rarity.  The level of your deck is no longer determined by smart choices, it's entirely based on how many good "buckets" you get.  I am seeing some absolutely absurd decks at low wins today.  If you don't have something stupid like 4 spikeridged steeds and 2-3 swords then good luck getting beyond 7 wins.

 Fuck Paladin in Arena anyway.

Just sayin'.

Quote from Kaladin >>

who wants to play hearthstone?

i want to play cards that are in my hand that happen to be playable at the time.

fuck thinking and decision making.

...is how i assume kingbane rogue thought process goes.

 Yeah just got raped by the kingbane bastards. Last, I don't know 15 turns, hit, hero power, hit, hero power rinse and repeat.

I should have quit when he went to one card left.

Quote from azairvine >>

I reckon they should ban meta decks in casual.......just have it purely homebrew - or add a homebrew play option

 This and closed random decks.

Been harping on for a closed deck version for ever.

Player One picks five cards from the class he wants, player 2 picks five class cards for player 1.

Reverse.

Random pool of the last 20 cards picked by the rng gods.

Which streamer is responsible for all these heal/zoolocks all over the place?  There was like a dramatic shift yesterday where it went from every warlock I face being evenlock to every warlock being this thing.  With how easily the lemmings will switch to the decks their favorite streamer plays I wonder sometimes if they try to manipulate the meta that way and get people to play decks their competitive decks they play off-stream are good against.

 Well yeah, and it's not just streamers that can manipulate, Blizzard can do it too. Remember when people were complaining that Priest is the worst class and Blizzard said that there are many priest deck out there that haven't been discovered? What did the lemmings do? They started playing priest to find out. Or when Blizzard said there is a good paladin deck out there during Mean Streets of Gadgetzan meta? Or what about Tempostorm when they said Malygos and token druid are Tier S during Frozen Throne?

I'm telling you, the HS players are so easy to manipulate. Blizzard can tell them the Earth is flat and they'll believe it because, you know, Blizzard is a huge corporate, therefore what they say is true.

HS players = gullible

Why do these aggro braindead kids always top deck what they need? I mean - ALWAYS! I'm on the brink of giving this dumb game off.

 Wait... the earth is flat? 

just a while i met a salty player that winning against me as hunter

im using odd paladin with shitty rng

yes salty hunter, wanna know why?

he then add me and throw some insult at me and im replying to him with one word,

"cuck" he remove me from friend list

now here's the part i dont understand,

do you need to lose so you can be salty or you need to win so you can be salty or the other way around

This meta, in Standard, is nothing but Rogues with Baku and Kingsbane, Shamans with Shudderwock, and Frost Lich Jainas. That's literally all I've been matched with since 1 July.

It really is completely pointless trying to build up a second account without paying money for more cards, first game at rank 25 on the account I come up against a golden hero'd priest playing full on control dragon priest, second game I come up against a golden hero'd hunter playing full on spell hunter. lmao, this being rank 25, honestly I really don't care myself, but to think if my experience is what new players get then I really do feel sorry for them, how are they supposed to win anything. lol

 Lek-a-golo right now how I am feeling about the game it is pointless having one account.

Rank 20, Pally rolled me over in 5 turns. Pointless. Should have resigned.

I long for the days of dialup internet and no websites like this or hsreplay etc where the meta of a game shifts in a matter of hours.   I have always thought posting your decks was a stupid idea in a game like this.  Good decks should be guarded and protected.  We aren't playing as a team, why share our secrets?

 I couldn't understand the thinking behind taking away one half of the game.

Building and making decks is as interesting to me as the game side of actually playing. New deck ideas make me jump with glee and I always try and add someone if i see they are playing something off meta.

It would be like having Warhammer without the ability to paint and collect the miniatures. I mean some just love the whole painting and collecting thing without even playing the game. The problem is that if there was financial gain for Blizz to not let people netdeck, you can beat your bottom coin they would have put a stop to it. Net decking doesn't hurt them so why stop all the free advertising that sites like this give your game.

Innovation loses, financial gain wins.

Ben Brode: Ugh... This expansion is so boring! Let me at least design the legendaries, please!

Blizzard: No, Ben. Witchwood is going to estabilish the clear line between viability and fun, and never the two shall intertwine again!

Ben Brode: That's it! If the expansion launches in this sorry, lame condition, I'll quit!

Blizzard: Ha! You wouldn't dare!

And that, laddies and gentlelasses, is how Witchwood shaped HS as we know it today. Not even salty here, just bored.

People still complain about netdedecks. This community never change.

 and we will still do if they don't fix casual

TIL If I'm not DEMANDING a free legendary per day, I'm a Blizzard shill.

I should stop trying to debate f2p anti-Blizzard players on r/hearthstone.

Shudderwock is really bad design. Period.

Today I'm so salty that I'm not even playing heartstone yet (still at work) but I'm already salty.
