As someone reached legend rank there times. I can't believe people still playing constructed & spending crazy amount of money on this game after all these years. I am not talking about newbies and talking about veterans (people who are playing this game more than a year). Constructed is so repetitive, so boring. You play against same three decks over and over and over again.
In constructed, I feel like most of the time your decisions don't matter. You win or lose based on your opponent's class (rock, scissor, paper) and/or mulligan and first four draws. If my opponent gets the perfect start hand - what you can see in the first two to three turns, i just give up and play another round. I don't care about my rank anymore. Since it's just a random effect that makes you lose (huge win streaks, huge loss streaks) it has nothing to do with skill, so i'm not angry if I lose, its just luck. But also i'm not happy if I win, because I was just the lucky guy then. I can't believe people still play constructed and reach legend every season without getting fatigue.
Arena is the only part of the game which still keeps me going. And I will be playing as long as i'm happy with it. Another good thing is as an Arena player don't need some spend any money on this game, you can always complete daily quests and get enough money for your next run.
what do you think guys?
I can’t believe people still complain about how people play the game, I mean, after all these years I would assume they would have learned.
And I am not talking about new players who may very well don’t get it, but seasoned players who even mention how legend they are?
I mean if people is happy playing the game then why bother? 🧐
I don't really give a shit what you have to say or what anyone else had to say but I just want to make sure I clarify something that's confusing me, you say that constructed format is boring because all the decks are basically a 'rock-paper-scissors' stalemate where you have to hope that you're luckier than the other person right?
So at what point does taking that exact same format but changing the deck building from "you have 100% control over what you put in your deck" to "better hope that in addition to fighting the exact same types of decks are going to see in constructed that you got lucky enough to get good cards to build your own deck"? My experience in the arena has basically just been take anything and everything that possibly swings Tempo your way and pray that they don't have more board clears than you do. Boring.
Grats on hitting legend, just too bad it makes you think you're someone too good for a mode of the game.

Hi i'm Tyler and I play hearthstone and watch anime.
Sometimes i make cards. I'd like to do that for a career one day if ever possible.
I hate ladder. Especially since blizzard starting to control the win rates of players (It's not bad luck when you win 5 in a row and then proceed to lose the next 5). I wasn't very sure about Artifacts "tournament only" modes, but now that I think of it I much more prefer it. Ladder just feels like a braindead mode that rewards time input over skill
"its'snot bad luck when you win 5 in a row and then lose the net 5"
care to elaborate on that statement? its not a magical unicorn that causes it. maybe skill variance, starting hands, type of matchup, etc...
I would like to hear what you think the cause is......
Don’t just don’t.....
I have seen enough threads of people claiming Hearthstone is rigging their matchups or winrate.
These " therorys " always come from persons who can’t proof anything, what they are claiming . (except written stuff with no background, or a very small samplesize) . Discussions with those guys are pointless and will only lead to a closed thread.

Anyone who thinks like you are terrible at the game.
Do you realise how difficult rigging a matchmaking would be in a game like Hearthstone ? And if that was the case, why is it that some players get to Legend every month while you are stuck at your rank 50 ?
So honestly I'd say stop looking for multiplayer games for your fix. Find a GOOD single player title you can dive deep into. And for *#@$()#(*'S sake don't look at a let's play or walkthrough or speed run of the thing.
TL:DR
You're surrounded by people who are optimizing the fun out of the game and getting caught up in the same. Play a game WITHOUT those people and you'll find your fun again.
I wish I've seen this advice when I started Final Fantasy IX again, I made a mistake and looked at a walktrough "not to miss anything"...should've rediscovered the game for myself :)
Arena is more repetitive than constructed. I play arena at times and people pick the same cards time and time again regardless of class. There is a core set of cards in arena which are must haves and they are in every deck. At least with constructed you have some control. You can play Wild to mix it up. With arena it's the same cards each and every time that get played.

Its a good example and one I had a hard time with as well. When you go F2P in games you get used to having to optimize just to survive as, early on, the games were made more as a 'free demo with a pay option' that we were near exploiting to keep free.
I've learned since then to stop forcing myself to play 'the best way'. This goes for everything from HAVING to do dailies to running the 'best strats' to, interestingly NOT running a walkthrough (I like collecting 'all the things' but feel like I 'should' find it myself). I bet there's as many people who ruin themselves to death trying to make homebrews work as those who bore themselves playing ONLY the tier 1 decks.
The point is, have #*$*(# FUN! If you do so grinding with the same deck all day (and some DO!) then DO IT and stop worrying about 'netdecking'. If you enjoy playing off-meta decks and you aren't pushing tournaments as a job then why the (#)$(# DOES it matter if you reach legend or have a 99.9% win rate?
If you DO want to climb ranks and dislike how the grind feels here, or like making decks but want opponents that are more varied, you DON'T have to force yourself to play here. There's thousands of games new and old to get into. There's RL games to get into. There's sports. There's watching people play thousands of games or RL games or sports. There's anime. There's TV shows. There's movies. There's music. There's MAKING music. There's listening to people sing songs in Swing style or acappella, or as a cover.
There's 1000000000 things to do in this world and 100000 ways to interact with each one of them! WHY IN THE SAMHAIN ARE YOU NOT ENJOYING YOURSELF!?
Go actually ENJOY hearthstone how you want to play. Or go find a game you DO enjoy. Or go watch something you enjoy. You DON'T have to 'worry' about how others have their fun. You don't have to loyally wait for something to be fun. This doesn't take away your right to demand better from games or rant over issues like lootboxes or the like. But when you want to enjoy yourself make sure you are doing so.
Right now I play Hearthstone in Standard constructed at the 19-15 ranks. Of all of the games I have access to and all of the things I can do, THIS is what I choose to play. This is my idea of fun. You make sure you do yours.
....well right NOW I'm rewatching DBZA yet again but you get my point.
