I see a lot of negativity here every day, complaining about everything possible. I know, it's a normal thing on game forums, but still I have to say this.
Rise of Shadows is such an amazing upgrade on what we had to deal with for last 8 months. Standard meta is really fresh, there's lot of different decks to play, who would've guessed that "Malygos hunter" would be played someday. Removing odd/even was the best thing they could've done. Arena seasons is a great thing for arena players like myself. I enjoy playing HS ladder again after a long time!
I think there's only one thing that needs fixing, and that's rogue in arena, way too strong atm, but few bucket changes will fix that problem easily. On standard it's way too early to suggest any nerfs, there is no deck that's single handedly dominating the meta atm.
RoS is funny as hell. The new RnG cards are stupid funny and the gameplay is the same as week one closed beta. I have nothing to win in the game or achieve anymore. I play purely to collect and make the best cards gold. Blizzard has made key cards hard to remove and their effects fucking ludicrous. I feel sorry for the fodder that still has yet to obtain the coveted "I'm smarter than Einstein" card back. Wild is nothing but a gold farm with my favorite triple legend odd rogue deck. The new lackey tokens are stupid dumb and win games themselves. Finally, a fucking totally busted and stupid ass expansion that mocks the game itself and the whiners who play it!

Jesus Christ, you are one pathetic fuck. Scrolling through your posts i can honestly just wonder how a human being like you even exists. I dont think I’ve ever encountered such a loser in my entire life. You are literally only whining, in every post, for 4 years. You should maybe consider doing something else in your spare time, rather than ranting about ranks and your collection over and over again. Fucking hell
Since this forum is as a plague fanboy infested, the overall category 1 responses were to be expected. The notion of critical thinking is absent, replaced by fanboy favourite: complaining.
The OP.

First of all negativity is not normal. Analysis is. Confusing both is a typical trait of a fanboy. But here's the thing. What is the verdict of the quality of card design in the last 8 months according to the OP? Not that good. So now he's happy. A year from now what will be the verdict of this exp? I'm sure 8 months ago people where happy with the meta then.
TL;DR: Fanboys don't think, they just adore, but at least the never 'complain.'
The mindlessness factor of this exp is as bad as the previous.
Excuse me, sir. Can you please stop posting with your condescending, bloated know-it-all manner? Also, labelling everyone who just enjoys the new expansion as mindless sheep is an egregiously blanket statement. You're free to act as the critical mind, but stop deeming everyone who doesn't follow your logic ("Cards are currently designed for a specific group of people which I call the fanboy: demanding, low skill, aggressive, railroaded archetypes, easy win fixes.) as unreflecting fanboys. I assume I'm not the only one holding that opinion.
OT: yea, some old archetypes such as Token Druid or Secret Paladin (not as OP as many people feared) returned and Pirate Rogue isn't really new as well. But in the end, the emergency exit of Genn/Baku was the best choice they could've made. Sometimes it's better to make a painful break than draw out the agony.
Shoot the messenger? Have you taken a peek in the mirror lately wondering how Blizzard looks at you given the low skill floored, reversed aggressive card design that your kind for now coins as 'diverse' and 'fresh'? Passion over skill. Blizzard successfully considers you a mindless pack buying idiot.
Remember the roman elite's handling of the masses? Give them bloodsports and they'll cheer you for that. What are you? Blizzards cheerleader?
Your kind can't handle a higher skill floor, or more demanding win conditions. And indeed, your kind is the target audience to the detriment of those for which that higher skill floor and that more complex win condition is essential for their skill to thrive.
Enjoy!
More baseless claims which you cannot even provide a source for. Where do you get the idea that I prefer games with a low skill floor? I never ever replied to one of your many indirect charges towards Blizzards card design philosophy, yet you instantly accuse me of being a "mindless pack buying idiot without desire for more demanding win conditions". That's rich coming from a player who apparently ("What is willed by developers knowing the psychology of target audience, the fanboy that doesn't want a game of skill and control, but rather either mindless aggression or OTK railroadism?") favors Control matchups but at the same moment dares to undermine other play styles by describing them as mindless. So let me ask you, shouldn't you take a peek in the mirror instead?
But since you fancy yourself so much I let you repeat your phrases ad nauseam. Enjoy!
I see you been a student of my posts. Good for you. Although, looking at your responses I've still got a lot of work to do. You have been drugged very well by Blizzardian card design in such a way that skill isn't anywhere in your consideration regarding win conditions. I know this is already too hard for you to swallow, but keep up the good work reading my posts. Maybe some day they will free your mind and you go cold turkey.
I must say I was negative on the first few days, seeing mainly warrior and rogue. Now that we see more decks appearing, it's getting better and better. Although I still think warrior`s hero is still too good with similar late game cards missing for other classes.
Fresh?Fun?What the heck, am i the only who faces only smorc rogue, smorc hunter and bomb warrior?Am the only one cursed by matchmaker. 95 % of my games are the 3 aforementioned decks (rank 1-3 Eu). D':
If you really face those three all the time, you could play something that counters them. Probably ctrl warrior?
Control warrior does poorly against all of those decks apart from "tempo=aggro" rogue. It does extraordinary badly against Hunter.
Point is to play counter deck, that was just an example :0

It is by far one of the best legendarys in this game, even better than Fandral for be much more easier to use the choose one cards in the same turn.
Don't dust, just give this little guy some time and few more expansions to work it and you see how broken this card is.
Just lacking support right now.

Ahh, good old times of kazakus reno warlock and pirate warrior... xD
