Not to say that it doesn't require a bit of luck every now and again to win, but at least when RNG fucks you in the ass, you didn't waste nearly as much time as playing a midrange/control deck. It never ceases to amaze me how little your meta deck means in a fight when 99 percent of the time, its RNG/Good Card Draw that wins you the game.
I can't begin to fathom how one can climb in this game consistently with skill alone; it honestly seems impossible because the only time I win is because my enemy either got unlucky (which is rare) or because I did (even rarer). Playing well means nothing when a loss is just a card draw away. I understand the synergies of all the dam decks; I know what you have to play around, but I can't play around everything nor should I be expected to.
Tl:dr Ranked Play honestly feels like I'm legit gambling, Meta Deck vs Meta Deck boils down to who draws better not who played better most of the time assuming the decks have similar power levels.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I have nearly zero luck when it counts.
If you Don’t like RNG you couldn’t be playing a card game
This. Your deck order is RNG to start with, and your opponent's as well.
We work with, and around what we do get per the RNGs, not on pre-ordered draws and rolls. That does take skill.
Yeah, RNG shifts balance. And yeah, RNG could get you a frustrating loss. Life's a bitch.
