Today I was having a rough day, so I thought I'd get on and have a nice, relaxing game of Hearthstone or two to cool off. Needless to say, it didn't work AT ALL!
Immediately I cued into an opponent who was playing Shaman. Already I was feeling hopeless, but I decided to play it out. I managed to get two Battlefiends in play plus a Satyr Overseer by turn three. It was looking good, but what did my opponent do? That's right, he cast Lightning Storm. Lightning Storm!!! Lucky bastard. All of my minions gone, just like that. What was Blizzard thinking putting such a brokeback card in the fucking game? Dealing 2-3 damage to all enemy minions for only three mana is insane! I kept going, praying I could mount a comeback, but when turn 8 came around he dropped Walking Fountain and healed out of range of my second charge of Metamorphosis. Unbelievable. One game in and already I'm getting trolled by this bullshit RNG clown fiesta of a class. So fun!!! :)
I hope one day Blizzard gets their shit together and balances this garbage. It's not fun queueing up my full netdeck Demon Hunter only to run into a braindead Shaman player who happens to draw all the cards they need to not die on turn 5. It's not a good look when you add a brand new class, only to have it lose every game to overpowered cards that have been around forever like Lightning Storm and Stormforged Axe, which can easily trade 3 for 1 with zero room for counterplay.
You listed SIX classes with viable strategies. Hearthstone is currently a game about trying to achieve (and defend from) "OP" power spikes - which I would say IS fun.
Until recently Hearthstone was jokingly referred to "curvestone" (basically from Naxx to Secret Paladin days ... and a bit beyond) where you would play
zombie chow on 1, minibot on 2, muster for battle on 3, piloted shredded on 4, sludge belcher on 5, mysterious challenger on 6, Dr.Boom on 7"
Most of the viable decks were some variant of this. Curvestone is not nearly as interesting as trying to pull off your big power spike turn (or successfully defend from one).
This! I used to constantly complain about curvestone. I guess there really is no satisfying everyone, and unfortunately the dissatisfied will always be louder making the forum look like a shit show.

Ok, then go ahead and play Risky Skipper (one single card), you clear nothing and gain 0 armor.
Well dont use that card and see if you can win a single game
Hey, hey...ANOTHER salt thread (along w/ the auto-include sarcastic title).
:sigh:
"There is no spoon"
Glad you have no idea with irony actually means...
Making topics that should just be in the salt thread: Fun
