A game cannot be dead with 3 expansions a year and more than 1 million concurrent players, playerunknown battlegrounds has 200k concurrent players and is one of the most played games in the world, hearthstome has 1 million and you are saying that the game is dead
The profit from Hs last year was very big (800 millions) and its a free game (fortnite got 1billion)
so by stats you cant say the game is dead, for me and a lot of peoole the meta is very cool, you have your opinion and a lot of people have different opnions, its impossible to make everyone happy, if you dont like the meta just quit, it will make no difference
Can you show me where it says HS did 800 milion?
Im trying to find that data to shove on the face of a friend of mine that's the same fcking Doom sayer from the op , that the game is over.
Can we start calling the dudes with this type of posts Doom sayers? I want to creat a meme , please :(
Honestly game is better off without you if you have this attitude Day 2 of the expansion... Did you walk into ranked standard and think it would be easy? I’m lost on what your expectations were coming into the release. There is also a few dominant decks very early on because of hype or easily identifyiable synergy, but it starts to mellow out after a couple weeks. If it doesn’t Blizzard comes in and makes changes. The game is organic, let it breathe.
Gotta love how everyone a lot of people pile on the OP and tells him that he is stupid and should leave. That'll make the OP feel better about the game.
People complaining about people complaining should follow their own advice and make their post in the salt thread.
Honestly, though. Why can't people be nicer here?
Because even the most patient of people get pissed when the 57th Thread on the same subject appears. And it would be lovely if people like the OP could just use the correct place to complain about a 2 day old Meta.
It's been 2 days FFS. If the OP has that mindset then he/she was already fed up with the game and just waited for a reason to launch into that inane tirade that they opened the Thread with.
It's enough to make St Francis Of Assisi kick a puppy...
The thing you have to remember is at it's heart, hearthstone is a game and games are meant for fun. I'm just playing tak rouge on ladder. Sure, I know I'll lose a ton, but even when losing it's a fun, RNG filled death.
Ok, ladder is clearly not for your taste right now, perhaps you go play Casual to test out some ideas you have wiith the new cards... Oh look, in casual I am being queued up against Odd Paladins and Big Priests again, just like on wild ladder. Amazing.
I'll admit, it's been a while since I last played casual, but I thought there was still a Standard v Wild divide there too? How were you seeing Odd Paladins in Standard Casual when testing out the new cards?
Sad that it has come to this but the newest expansion did not even bring 5 minutes of fun with it. The rotation seemed like it might be a good thing, finally Odd and Even decks are going to be taken behind the shed and be shot and new and fun cards seem to be coming to Standard. Except the new cards that came were all clearly designed for one deck in mind - Blizzard foolishly printed cards for each class that support only one archetype - Thief for rogue, Bomb for Warrior etc. This means upon arrival, the meta has already been set and within 30 minutes of playing the new Standard, you realise you're just facing the same 3-4 decks in a row, all just copy pasted from the same place online.
"Well how about you give Wild a go?" My brain told me. Well I didn't even have to think about switching to wild because with the release of the new Legendary before the expansion came out, it was clear Big Priest was just going to get worse, not to mention all the other resurrect cards they added. Every time you go to play in Wild, you pray it is not big priest and if it is, you concede turn 4 when they play Barnes or try to desperately kill them before turn 6 if they don't have Barnes.

In conclusion, I think Blizzard are too far gone off the road. They can't nerf Big Priest anymore, too many cards need to be nerfed and it won't matter in the end anyway if you change them by 1 mana, their deck is built around stalling anyway. This means wild is unplayable for anyone slightly control oriented. I don't think the blame is only on Blizzard. The blame also lies on sites like this and others, who advertise the highest win % decks around front and center, which leads to everyone playing the same decks that are dominating the meta.
I totally agree with you. I was very very disappointed during the release because nothing new was added, but only old stuffs, nothing new added and the game is still bored. I am also very bored about the wild unplayable situation. So yes. The game like now is dying for me. In Italy we already have articles that talks about the dead game.
This was a core expansion for Hearthstone and they failed.
we're all seeing the same decks because everyone is trying what they're seeing on Youtube and this site. There's plenty of decks to try you haven't probably seen yet. Have you faced a Dragon mage? How about a Mech Hunter? Bet you haven't seen a Recruit Warrior either! Just give it at least a week and then make a forum.
I have tried until now, Spell Malygos Hunter, Summon mage, Fatigue Warrior, Bomb Warrior, Tempo Rogue, Thief rogue, Malygos Shaman, and I climbed from rank 3 to rank 1 in EU with Mech Hunter. So , no new decks as the OP said (NOT). I have a lot fun! Also arena feels amazing. I joined in February 2018 and I have so many card unseen. Went on an 8-3 run with Warlock(Kazakus is a beast, have never used that card before). and now I am 3-0 with a Lackey midrange rogue deck
Pure Control is very strong aswell and a very good counter for Boomb warrior. I dont agree that you think all warrior are Boom.Boom Warrior is like 70% Control 20% and 10% are Dragon warrior, Big Warrior and Mechathun warrior.
There are only 2 good control classes right now against Bomb Warrior - thats Control Warrior and Shudderwock Shaman, all other options lack healing or have enough strong removals - you could argue for Paladin in 3rd but it's still worse than the other 2 in most respects.

You keep repeating this. A few Italian (ha!) articles saying a game is dying means nothing. Why are you still here? Seriously?
If you don't like the stuffs then just play something else. What's wrong with you people?
Can you show me where it says HS did 800 milion?

How were you seeing Odd Paladins in Standard Casual when testing out the new cards?
Well, probably OP has a revelation of sorts, but bobbystone is far from dying, just stop taking it seriously, mmkay.
Still fine to play a couple games on toilet or in public transport, just don't expect it to be sophisticated in any way, it isn't.

I think this belongs to the salt thread. OP is salty af.
Release the Kraken!
I didnt have such fun long time in hs. This was best rotation that could happen. I dont think any of decks are broken yet.
