Hitting legend has been dumb easy ever since the ladder system was changed. There have been terrible players regularly hitting legend ever since. People complained it was too difficult in the old system, & now you see players like this in legend on a regular basis. Blizzard essentially holds their hand down the yellow brick road. I haven’t considered “hitting legend” a testament to skill in quite some time.

 There were plenty of decks prior to the ladder change that gave you easy legend at different times.

I'll list some for you - Mysterious Challenger Paladin, Aggro Spell Shaman and then Mid-Range Shaman, Jade Druid, Pirate Warrior, various iterations of Aggro Hunter, Mid-Range Hunter, Zoo Warlock,  Mech Mage...

Point is, there have often been decks in the meta that you can pilot pretty suboptimally but are so strong relative to the other decks of the time you easily...and I mean easily maintain a 55% winrate right the way up the ladder.

 So are you disagreeing with the point of this new ladder system being easier than the previous one?

OP is such an unlikable person, the way he writes and talks about others. The way he brags and makes completely ridiculous conclusions.

I am with a very high MMR in Legend and all those players I play against play very well indeed. Your MMR seems to match you with the worst players in legend. Jumping to any conclusions and even worse, making fun of those players, is just honestly shameful.

I have to say, I find it hard to agree with the premise of this thread. To the OP, I don't know if this is your first time getting to legend (it kind of sounds like it is if your incredulity is any indication), but players in legend make misplays all the time. Admittedly the ones that you've cited here are pretty bad, but these things happen. People make stupid mistakes at every rank. Even the best players in the world are prone to make the occasional blatant misplay that someone at a considerably lower skill/experience level might not have made. All of which is to say, this whole "look at this these legend players made some stupid mistakes so legend is super easy now" argument you're making is illogical to say the least.
