Finished last month at rank 3. Now I am stuck at 10 with the same deck. Guess I forgot how to play.
Fanboys will tell you that meta has evolved and that you're probably less concentrated than before. in short words, focus more on your plays and your mistakes! Watch the replay of your games and try to determinate how you could have played better!
I equate this game to online blackjack. I wouldn't use real money to play either (and for the same reason).
If anyone bothered to play the brawl this week you got an up close look at how scripted the outcomes of this game are. After years of sending employees into forums making up nonsense about how impossible it would be to program the game to manipulate the outcomes they have now stopped pretending and embraced it. It's like pro wrestling - they are hoping that even though the outcomes are predetermined the people will keep watching (playing).
Hopefully they are working on not making it so obvious going forward. Maybe pretend to make it seem like it's not 100% predetermined. Perfect card after perfect card gets boring. Like Tom Cruise in the Color of Money - the art is in making it seem like it is close.
Can someone please fucking explain to me how everyone in battlegrounds gets a lightfang at 6-8 Coin turns WITHOUT fail and although you consistently can get buffs over and over its just a long grueling match of 'You're fucked' basically. You can't even head for 2-3-4th place unless you highroll every other player that's ahead of you, which is just impossible even if you do because BAD TRADES exist and fuck up your board even if you're ahead by like 3 turns worth of shit because their 999/1 poisonous just happens to hit your healthiest minion.. even if you end up winning it feels so much worse than mindnumbing grinding to legend because at least with that you have some semblance of controlling RNG and trading.. and y'know you don't lose like 50-100 rank for getting 5-6th place. Even if you get 1st or second in battlegrounds you'll maybe get 30-70, and thats a rough estimate because it feels completely fucking random how much points you get.. even in the games where you kill like 5 players you'll still get 90% of what MMR you lost last round. Battlegrounds is so unbelievably lopsided it's fucking hilarious. You either high roll extremely early and just win guaranteed, low roll at that 'extremely early stage' and have no hope because someone high rolled, hunt for 1 golden/hunt for a lightfang/good 5th or 6th drop the entire game and get basically only boogeymonsters. What a shit gamemode... it's use is entirely "OH LOOK HOW GOOD I HIGHROLLED ON THIS CLIP FROM MY STREAM *jacking himself off*" and even with that it's unfun to look at.. /endrant
MC Tech should be HOF-ed AND nerfed to 10 mana. I take control of the board fair and sqare and the shaman takes four of my minions for 8 mana. How is that fair?!
Quest Rogue gets fucked AGAIN by Blizzard since Sonya Shadowdancer's extra copies no longer get buffed by Crystal Core. I can't even play the deck as a meme in casual anymore without something else in it getting rekt.
Well I've got enough gold in the bank for 30 decks in the next expansion. The only thing I like I about hearthstone is staying free to play to drain Blizzard's wallet.
Current state of play: Murloc Shaman still toxic as fuck. ZtG still bailing out the highlander decks. Still no autosquelch. Games still being flipped from insane swing card randomness. Top tier netdecks still giving free wins.
PSA for noobs: NEVER pay real money for hearthstone --only the truly desperate would waste money on this shit, toxic experience. If you pay to craft a top tier cancer deck, not only are you lame as fuck, and not only is your rank is meaningless, but your free wins will quickly become boring. Game is total shit. Never buy packs. Just don't.
Playing taunt warrior this morning vs a murloc shaman and i had them down to an empty and hand a weak board. Had the option to clear their board (and my windfury Simiat) with Warpath.
I chose to go face and develop my board with no taunts (none in hand!).
He top decked Bloodlust. 1/10 odds.
Taking a break from ladder until lunch while I think about how stupid I was to give up an chance to decimate his whole board flood game plan.

Ugh, battlegrounds. Is it just me, or is it starting to seem like how lucky you get with a 5-star triple reward (as in, on 4 stars to get a 5 star unit) is so telling, and often the deciding factor?
Just had 2 games where I started off fairly well, then stumbled at the 4+ star point after getting junk from my triple ups, versus Branns, Lightfangs and Bugurgles. Ending up in fifth in both games was very salt inducing. I'm not saying the first 1-2 5 star triple ups are game winning/losing. I am saying that they can provide a huge boost to whoever gets lucky with them, such that other players then need to get quite lucky to be able to overcome the deficit.
Also, the 'completely random' match-up system is just stupid. It should clearly be round-robin to make things fair. I'm into round 4 of the next game, and have only fought 2 players. WTH?
4 Leeroy deck in a row...after that mechathun... MM is sure fun...after Mechathun deck again Leeroy...
Edit:My thought was i gonna beat all shaman decks(more than half decks are shaman(MM is fun))...turns out from last 4 cards they still can generate more than 10 face damage...
Honestly they should restrict quest shaman to not use lackeys...Like 9 ethereal double battlecry is pure vomit material....
Galakrond rogue is busted. Easy 20/20+ Edwin before turn 5, constant card draw and answers to everything now. I wouldn't be surprised if people play Malygos just for the memes because of how busted this deck is.
garbage ass game with a garbage ass playerbase everyone who plays aggro is a braindead moron i dont give a single fuck about what i said before aggro decks just make the game one sided only enjoyable for the inbred no skill tard piloting the deck just draw and win fucking moronic

So it is acceptable to have a nickname of foreskin_knight and beside that just pure netdecking galakrond shaman...real mature and not toxic at all...with emote spam and golden cards.. tbh i just love how i can't face anything but pirate or shaman...
I see all the scrotes are straight back to playing Shaman again. GG Blizz on keeping on top of that toxic shit.
The meta evolved in a week?

not even an hour into the expansion and what do i get on my first game? a sad fuck playing mill rogue
Ladder is still 90 % Shaman, and I still get the most soul crushing bad luck ever. Typical day of Hearthstone.
Welp! It is VERY early to call it. But I feel pretty confident that Pirate Warrior is busted enough to make this expansion garbage until nerf.
The second best deck seems to be aggro burn Shaman.
Still can't play this damn game in EU account, which is my main
I can play in NA normally.
I was like, 'Well, I should play some OW until this is solved'. Guess what? Only can do in NA.
What the fuck is happening to my games?
Galakrond rogue is busted. Easy 20/20+ Edwin before turn 5, constant card draw and answers to everything now. I wouldn't be surprised if people play Malygos just for the memes because of how busted this deck is.

go fuck yourself
So it is acceptable to have a nickname of foreskin_knight and beside that just pure netdecking galakrond shaman...real mature and not toxic at all...with emote spam and golden cards.. tbh i just love how i can't face anything but pirate or shaman...
First 10 games into the expansion:
6 times Galakrond Priest, 4 times Pirate Warrior.
YOU SHITTY COMMUNITY
