i only play my own decks and this is my first time looking at tiers. I'm surprised druid is so low, not surprised tier 1 & 2 is LITERALLY all that's played. As you get down into tier 3 and 4 there a little more interaction and actually playing a game.
If you haven't started reading the Vicious Syndicate Data Reaper Report, you should at least read #128, which is the most recent (May 2).
It says Druid is a huge disappointment and Warlock Zoo has hit a huge wall.
There's really not a whole lot to do right now but face the game with a "if you can't beat them, join them" type of attitude because the meta hasn't really settled yet. Token Druid could rise up again.
The lower tier decks are not allowing for much interaction, either. For example, a lot of the priest variations are just as boring to play against as Control Warrior. You stare at your opponent's empty board a lot of the time, much like Taunt Druid used to be. This is why Tempo Rogue and Mech Hunter have become popular because facing one of these opponents is a total smack 'em in the face festival. It's like playing whack-a-mole except the mole just sits there and does nothing but heal or draw cards. Nomi Priest mirror matches must be a lot of fun (NOT!).
And this is why the game makes me salty right now. There's not much you can do except try to go with the flow if you can figure out the flow. Or, you can throw your computer out the window after writing a nasty letter to Blizzard.
Not a fan of spam decks so I never played any decks like the only druid one played right now or zoolock but the consistency of druid is pretty toxic. I dont see any risk at all in playing that deck so I didnt expect to see it that low.(though I guess I really shouldnt call 2 low) I dont think i even play a variation of any of the decks listed there. I have a Catrina deck with taunts but i do that lame inner fire garbage.
Token Druid is not consistent, which is why it isn't doing well. It has no card draw, so every card you play is a total commitment. Twin spells are supposed to mitigate that, but it does not work. The Forest's Aid, for example, is a twin spell that spams the board with treants. But it costs 8, so even when you have 10 mana, you pretty much use up your turn with that spell and can't do much else. I'm sure you can imagine the scenario: Turn ten treats, opponent's turn board wipe, turn eleven treants, opponent's turn board wipe. It happens a lot with Warrior and Shaman. The legendary minion Keeper Stalladris is supposed to help as is using Archmage Vargoth, but it isn't enough for a lot of matches so the druid just loses steam. Druid was my first golden hero I earned, so I have always kept up with the druid class even though I don't use it much anymore, so I've tried out all the Token Druid decks and really, they are underwhelming.
If i had 1 pack for everytime a warrior got a random zilliax from boom or Omega assembly,i could probably have a fully golden collection. Thank you blizzard. Yes,it's fun when i waste all my resources for my lethal when warrior can literally heal 7 hp and taunt at the same turn from 1 or 2 mana. Than kyou.
But when ladder is 85% Ress Vargoth Priest ... You fucking monkeys really need to look at your self and think - really really hard... Why i am such a fucking sheep?!
Don't mind me, just playing against LITERAL CONSTRUCTED TOKEN DRUID in arena
That is just unreal! I wonder if the person knew they had that kind of deck or if a computer application helped them select their cards and saw the opportunity to create it. I saw a Zoolock in Arena last week. I think Arena is no longer "just a game" anymore. ;(
Please, tell me why bad players get rewarded? Handlock 3 turns in a row used hero power as last move with 9 cards in his hand and 3 times burned trash cards? Nothing crucial at all. Why you do this to me?
Why the only people who BM in Wild are those who play unskilled decks with broken mechanics (Big Priest/Odd Pally) ? I really hope Blizzard nerf these anti-fun decks.
I'm playing custom Thief Rogue in rank 4 and I'm transforming into a salt statue.
I'm posting this here since people will direct me here anyway even though I'm not salty.
But... Shouldn't Acidic Swamp Ooze be nerfed? It is entirely too strong for a tech option. Anyone who looks at this card can see that, right?
Gluttonous ooze was great, but mostly against aggro. It was also not part of the classic set. Harrison Jones is great, but only in a control deck. But acidic swamp ooze is just great all around.
I always looked at this card thinking: something is just not right here. This basic card basicly makes any weapon removal obsolete. It can be run in any deck.
It was only just now, when the opponent destroyed my weapon with this card while he still got to keep his, that it finally dawned on me. THIS CARD SHOULD DESTROY BOTH WEAPONS!! THIS IS NOT FAIR!!!
Oh well, so maybe I am a little bit salty, but that's why I'm here and not posting another nerf thread in the cards forum.
Mech bomb hunter is insane in standard, switched to morpher shaman and even with healing 30 HP in a game it sometimes is not enough if they get a lucky zuljin
Blizzard needs to do something about Big Priest, it's fucking retarded. It's not even Barnes anymore, it's the might-as-well-be-infinite resurrection. And don't give me that HSReplay winrate bullshit because it loses to aggro/bad luck, it's broken as fuck. They killed Naga, Aviana, Patches, but this, the worst of them all remains. It's perverse.
At this point a nerfed card or two won't cut it, it needs to be destroyed.

It is the most frustrating and polarizing deck ever created. Nerfing barnes won't help either, not with the vargtoth double res BS.
