The game is just way too bad. Taking away all those top tier decks, all other decks are still dumb af- it is basically always a rush who can kill who much faster with handburn. ( died to shaman with a 28 burst, dying to hero power mage who have 4 strength hero power cuz they discover further cards to buff hero power, it doesnt even make sense to play minions, weapon rogue. the list continues...)
Not much strategy anymore and it just hurts to play heartstone. It is dumb af. I cannot find any other words.
I don't think they will manage to make the game fun again. There are so many extremly dumb design choices. They just dropped the ball long time and i shud have never spend so much time with this dumb shit.
I want to like the game, I want to play it, but there’s no space for anything anymore. I’ve checked out since last Friday and I still find myself coming here to see what people are talking about.
I was looking forward to this expansion—the frenzy mechanic and the core set seemed to promise a return to interactive board states and some new decks. But the results have proven to be really limited. I’m disappointed that they push all these new ideas, don’t give them enough support to be viable in any way, and then tie achievements to playing the new archetypes that cannot be done reliably because two decks completely dominate the meta.
What would you like to play then? If you are more into just playing minions then you probably should play something like classic or arena( even though it gosts money/gold)
Guys, the solution to most of your complaints about Standard is Classic mode, really. In there you will always know what the opponent can or can not play. But the top deck thing will still be the thing or even more noticable, because again, you know exactly what they need to top deck.
Haven't been playing much at all (other than the daily quest) - the game is at its worst state that I can ever remember. Every match is just complete cancer, mostly because of lunacy mage - its just so unfun to play against and all the paladin is starting to get super annoying.
I also really don't like the quest system or the achievements, the only reason I even bother is for the free legendary at 50 - after that doubt I'll even care about the quests anymore, there is hardly any motivation to complete them.

Thats not the solution sorry, classic was fun for a couple of days of nostalgia but I already played it back at HS release and I've played the game ever since, I love how the game has developed over the years but I hate how the current meta has shaped up - the sooner the changes come the better.
Simple. Oh My Yogg! and Counterspell kills my enthusiasm for the game. It is simply too frustrating.
If frustration > enjoyment then I dont play.
I’ve never understood why people hate counterspell. Secrets are so so good for this game, since you can’t play cards during the enemy turn, like in magic, runeterra, whatever.
Do people really hate having to think? Is it like “ahhh, no secrets in play, let’s just vomit stuff out?” Secrets, counterspell included, are so good for the game. Having to think, is good for the game. And counterspell, in addition to all secrets, is good for the game.
5) Minion cheats (bring into play high cost minions without paying full price)
6) Mana cheats
7) Inadequate gameplay testing
8) Focus on randomness
9) Becoming more aware of how much of a waste of time this is
10) Netdeckers
11) Penflinger is annoying enough as is with how long it takes people to play him over and over, we didn't need to put up with the hyper annoying soundbite.
This is not life guys, create some distance. On your death bed, looking back at the things you regret in your life, playing more hearthstone will not be one of them. But it or other games may be the cause of many others.
One of the most boring meta periods ever in the game for me, pen flinger deck into Lunacy BS, rinse repeat ...

My only motivation is collecting legendary cards. Otherwise, I don't like the game at all.

I guess people get tired of rigged RNG deciding the majority of their games.

Im playing some. Expect to play much more after nerfs.
I feel like I have a lot of fun cards at my disposal with a lot of interesting deckvuilding choices.
I dont see things so bad at the moment.

I can only take so many lunacy mages before I get so tilted

There is no variety right now. It gets boring fighting the same deck over and over again.

paladin or mage all the time. at one point it gets boring. blizzard can't do their job of testing the cards before releasing.
