Well, I just got to face a quest warlock with garrote rogue, on turn 6 he finished the quest, managed to get down darkglare and stealer of souls, then backfire and played auctioneer and drew and drew. He didn’t have enough to kill me, but he had enough animations to make my next turn too short to get off all my animations for garrote. This is peak hearthstone, beating your opponent with animations taking their turns before they can take a turn so long it kills you.
Animation is the single worst thing in Hearthstone, and is getting worse every 3 month. I hope they fix it eventually. Like you know just a button to cancel all animations permanently, or at least being able to interact with animations in the game to simply stop them with a mouse click. You can already disable the little card animation inbetween animations with a click on it, why allow us to disable the fastest animation in the game and not stupid shit like Shudderwock or decks with high APM ? That's pure trolling at this point lol
Agreed, I’m giving the meta a chance, trying to find counters and it looks like a Rock Paper Scissors meta is emerging with magelock/rogue/druid. However, none of these decks play minions for board control, only etb and ongoing effect. So if they want us to play YuGiOh, at least don’t subject us to a timer that your opponent can control with animations, that’s just faffing about, and you shouldn’t be able to durdle your way to victory.
I tend to win most warlock mirrors because my deck is built faster than the typical one I see (I don't use soul fragments).
I've also lost a game I should've won due to animation preventing me from actually playing Tamsin at the end of a turn when I otherwise could have.

Kill them too fast
Thanks for contributing to the cancer
I do decent against mage and well against warlock with quest + doom hammer. The key may be a high burst mid range deck :)
I've been eating them for breakfast all morning laddering with this Big Dragon Rogue:
