I love how the game literally gets to a point where doesn’t matter what you do, how you play, if you switch decks, you will lose absolutely no matter what. Perfect discovers, perfect top decks, draws the perfect half of their deck when you lose 5, 6, 7, 8 games in a row it’s because you are just winning too much. Or as games use to be pay to win but if you’re ******** you can still lose. Well have no fear Bli$$ard perfected that. You pay for the cards anddddd the rng now! So don’t worry if you pay with real cash you will win! Nothing you do matters! We tell you when you are allowed to win pleb!
I read an interesting article once that detailed how the matchmaking system works and how the streamers are permanently removed from it (no one wants to watch a streamer win 50% of the time). It also said that paying real money temporarily removes one from the system which gives people the feeling that their money was well spent. Then after a while you are thrown back in, start losing half your games, and the cycle repeats.
THIS.
I watch a lot of streamers, and sometimes I just can’t figure out how they can win with such shitty decks and bad plays.
This streamer in particular (not making names) was sponsoring this “super strong” deck (which was complete garbage), so I watched him playing it live in top 200 legend: super dumb plays, ages to figure out the only obvious play of the turn (often with the help of the chat), opponents playing even worst... I was literally asking me how TF he managed to climb in such high legend having me playing for ages and struggling from diamond5..
Last time it took me FIFTYSIX games for diamond5-legend and these people are always breezing through a bunch of facerolling monkeys
So many one out draws. Half the time they will call it - "I really need...oh there it is"
I love when Rigged Stone matches me up with a deck I beat 99% of the time to give that hump a win by making sure my deck doesn't draw correctly.
I already concede enough to decks I know I can't beat, you have to give my free wins away too? And let these mopes think their off meta home brews are actually good?

Grammar is the difference between knowing your crap, and knowing you’re crap.
Punted a 25 min priest mirror tonight after dominating the whole game. Opponent Illucias in desperation to stay alive, I get to play their Galakrond and leave them with just the 2-mana "Draw a minion" card with an empty deck.
....Had I realised that card would trigger their spellburst: get two spells dragon, which was their last minion, I would have just played it. Those spells went on to create two more dragons and four more spells, leading to me losing to a last big tempo push.
Totally my own fault and I'm kicking myself even hours later for it.

ZTG programming runs the entire game. If it's your "turn" to lose you will draw garbage no matter how bad your opponent plays.
When are they going to add "always in your opening hand" to Carnival Clown? I mulligan that card literally 80% of the time and when I discard it I draw it on the first turn. Nothing like sitting on a useless card for at least 8 turns every game.
This turn 4 paladin business is more busted than early incarnation quest rogue. It must be nerfed now, I cannot see how this interaction and consequence was intended.
Lost in 5 turns to a mage. Perfect draw of course while I drew useless cards. They really need to dial it back. Every fucking game features draws you couldn't hand pick any better.
This was after winning two mindless games that ran on autopilot. Play the cards as drawn, top deck game winner.
Killed from double savage roar at 35 health. With a 6 health taunt in the way. Nice game Blizzard. Wtf is the point of all this AoE if I can't beat Token Druid? fucking bullshit. I'm done.
I usually like playing mage, and so the nonsense it can pull off is often tolerable to me.
But holy jesus. This time.
This guy is playing the new burn mage, he's running out of cards in hand. Generates an Astromancer Solarian from Primordial Studies, it dies and goes into the deck.
He's out of cards, great. I just need to hit him a couple times and the game is mine.
Topdecks Solarian Prime. Plays it. Potions itself, gives himself a FUCKING BISCUIT and then plays the second one.
ANOTHER POTION OF ILLUSION. NOW HE HAS TWO IN HAND.
Freezes me, clears my board, generates minions and then proceeds to cast direct damage spells. Not the spells that could kill his own board... because once my board is clear, they can hit themselves again. No, no, now that your job is done, you can start killing me, too.

With two more left in hand.
uuuuhgggg.
It is pretty amazing how ridiculously unlikely (in the real world) the predetermined outcomes are sometimes.
After losing to face priest after an hour of non stop face hunter and aggro rogue I am done. I think some of the cards printed recently are excellent but I cannot stomach how fast the ladder is. It kills all fun and enjoyment in a game I desperately want to enjoy.

this game is so fucking trash

What the actual FUG is blizzard doing to malygos in the new expansion? Is this real? There will be no more +5 spell damage maly anymore, ever?
I THINK IM DONE WITH THIS GAME
Old Malygos will still be usable in wild mode, The new Malygos is a new card, just like we have "Reno Jackson" and "Reno, the Relicologist"
The bastardos still play the cancer,so what blizzard, moved them one mana more,you know for what i talk....idiots
Alura is 5 Mana now, I think. Is it going to help?
Fucking idiots
Can i prepare for turn 5, 7 murlocs down idiots....
