What he's trying to say is that maybe you need to take a step back and look what's going wrong. Could it really be that there's an actual meta change at D3? Is the deck you're climbing with, getting countered by 1 or 2 specific decks? I'm pretty sure it's not a playstyle problem rather than a matchmaking one.
It is you and only you. Just record your D3 games and post them here for analysis.
OK so suddenly at D3 I cannot play anymore? Is this what you are trying to say?
No, that's not what they said at all. Just post some games and either evidence the rigging or people will help explain where you're going wrong. As you win more, the ability level of your opponents increases. The way it works is you have a higher than 50% win rate until you start to find the level where it flattens out because you consistently play people of a similar ability level.
Your ability level is around the D3 spot, if you get better then you will increase that. You may have unlucky matches which mean some months it takes longer than others to hit whatever your level is but it will generally work to be a similar rank, provided you put a similar level of effort into how many games you play etc.
You maybe right but honestly if there weren't some totally unbalanced and ridiculous cards like rogue secret passage or druid insane mana cheating, I could definitely be better

It's not rude. It just doesn't make sense as an answer. If D3 is my skill cap why don't I just stick around there instead of each and every time dropping back to D5 and 0 stars? By the way since the time I wrote the post, it is happening again D3 and 3 stars and then the loss streak started and now I am D4 and 0 stars already

You can't tie games, so you're floating around the D5-D3 range. You need to either look at how your deck matches up against the decks that are beating you, or you need to look at how you're playing and look for mistakes or misplays you might be taking.
It's chance. Sometimes you get a losing streak and sometimes you're on a massive winning streak. Relax, you just need one winning streak and it'll rocket you all the way to D1-Legend.

D5 is your skill cap, you can't go above it. Nothing is stopping you from going below, it is easier to play worse than your average skill as opposed to playing better
I'm sorry, I really don't want to be rude, but it absolutely is you. It can only be you, in fact. Over fifteen thousand people got Legend this month (and that's just on EU, where I play). Some of them, including me, hit a wall at some point during their Diamond climb and lost a lot of ranks (I dropped from D2 and D1 to low D a bunch of times), but none of them were like... sabotaged by Blizzard in such a way that they're 100% guaranteed to drop down to D5 once they hit D3. What's most likely happening is that around the time you hit D3 your MMR gets high enough that you're matched up against better players. Even if the game is coded to sabotage people once they get to D3 by picking bad matchups and giving you bad draws, thousands manage to overcome that sabotage and keep ranking up to Legend. Not to be that memetic "git gud" guy, but there's nothing you can do other than up your game and beat those players. The only advice I can give is to take a break once you start going on a loss streak. Even if you don't know it you're probably getting frustrated, tilting, and playing worse. Take a breather, watch something on YouTube or pour yourself a drink, and get yourself to the best mindset you can have. Also, unless you see the meta shift completely against it, try to stick with one deck and perfect your play with it. You'll do better piloting a deck that has problems in the meta expertly than constantly switching to try and counter the meta and playing five different favoured decks poorly.

what decks are you playing?
My own quest shaman brewed deck. Am I being to greedy?

Sigh. Your climbing the MMR, your matches are getting tougher. Or you're potentially getting tired or something.
Maybe you hit some unlucky matchups. Maybe you misplay. We cannot say for sure if you won't let you help.
Always expect the unexpectable!

Your skill/deck level is less or equal to D3. You need to improve to climb.

Do you have reading impairments?
