Maybe it's just all the recent salt/complaints i've been reading lately, some valid and some just petty, but based on those complaints it seems like everyone wants whatever class they're playing at the moment to have an auto pilot deck to get them to legend. Some games may feel the same because of the class you're playing/playing against but you are playing the opponent not the class. My frustration with these complaints might be directed towards a very small audience but it's usually that small group that is the loudest.
My advice to people frustrated with this game/meta is to stop waiting for the next tier 1 deck to copy and paste or the next batch of nerfs and try to build something unique. This does not mean it's not okay to copy other players great ideas but instead of playing exactly how someone else does try adding something different. Those little differences can be the difference when trying to outplay your opponent.
If A would get nerfed, people would complain about B.
If B would get nerfed, people would complain about C.
If C would get nerfed, you get the point.
And this cycle continues all the way to Z until an expansion comes out, we reset to A, and repeat the cycle.
The big complainers ALWAYS complain and always will. They never, ever stop to think that maybe it is them, or that maybe this game is not for them. It’s actually insanity to me, because some of them have been doing this for years, yet hilariously keep playing.
True, they are both good deck, that require A LOT of decision making and have very varying degrees of success. DH needs positioning and lots of planning and luck; wouldn't even call it an auto-pilot deck...
One deck is super easy to play and runs with an "auto pilot" and that is MURLOC PALADIN.

My point isn't which deck are or aren't auto pilot it's that everybody wants their deck to be auto pilot and be able to get legend with ease, which for some people it is very easy but the issue is that so many players would rather try to win without trying too hard.

Point is, those are NOT THE SAME PEOPLE. For example, you can nerf Rogue and then obviously Rogue players will complain. But not only them, also those who don't like to play against decks, that are weak vs Rogue. Because after nerf there will be less Rogue and less Rogue means more of that disliked decks in the meta. It simply means that someone will ALWAYS complain, but that doesn't mean, these complaints should be ignored, because they are often right.
According to Blizzard, game should be balanced only if the numbers do not match. Even If something is bonkers, but not very popular, then there is no problem for them... Yet any shift in popularity can change this and all decks that went under the radar so far, can be targeted for next batch of nefr/buff. And the circle closes...
In summary, people have always complained and will always complain, but in my opinion this is a good thing and healthy for the game.

The horse that I have beaten to death is this.

ironic. the complaints actually are that DH is the best one and its an auto pilot deck. Enrage warrior and rogue tho very strong are not auto pilot

Think any deck can be autopiloted in a good level is a BS
