After almost a month of playing with the new meta, I can say that I am enjoying myself a lot, and here is why.
I love puzzles. That's why I enjoyed the Boomsday solo content so much. What brings me back to the game daily are decks and cards that force you to think how you can maximize the value you get out of each play.
Previous metas were a bit boring to me. You pretty much just reapplied the same recipe over and over. Of course you had to make smart choices, but I found the depth of choice that was offered to be pretty limited. Since SoU and the comeback of highlander decks, you have to choose carefully when and how you use each one of your cards, because once you use it, you can't use it again (most of the time). I even have been fiddling with a Expired Merchant Discardlock and have had a lot of fun. It doesn't help me climb the ladder, but each game brings a new puzzle that makes my brains go to work.
I have to say that I like what Team 5 has done with the Year of the Dragon, even though there weren't any dragons in the last expansion (probably a narrative twist for the next expansion).
I think Zephrys the Great has indeed brought a "greater" RNG based meta, with most of the decks being one card copy, it is now almost impossible to guess correctly what techs are in or how to play around cards.
How is your experience now after the nerfs? Seen mage winrate drop a fair amount, warrior remains roughly the same though.
Lot of decks having a much better winrate now too.
I find that the nerf opened a lot more space for new deck. It is true that hunter is pretty strong, but I think hunter will always stay strong since it is a tempo game and hunter is probably the best class at applying tempo.

What do you think?
Dude, you can’t just make a thread with positive content!
Nobody will answer you, since this is unheard of!

Prismatic Lens into Tip The Scales
I love new meta too.
Overall yes, reborn of singleton mechanic in both standard and wild give a good portion of interesting experience.
This reminds me Kazakus times.

Damn, I didn't think about that!

Oh.. I think we have space for that one deck in the meta

F U. How dare you say something positive about Hearthstone. You're going to upset everyone here.
