Why is this Meta bad and what would YOU change to make it better?

If you're aggro, you're either playing other aggro, or you're paying Warrior or Druid. If they can survive enough to get Zilliax out, they win, if they don't, you win.
If you're playing Warrior or Druid, you're either playing either Warriors or Druids where each side is losing 45 Zilliax's each, or you're playing aggro, and if you can get Zilliax out, you win. If you can't, you lose.
Literally posted every single day by people either trying to play bad decks and losing or people who are getting smashed playing face decks.
this is one of the most creative sets they have ever made. Sure something may be powerful at first but they’ll tone it down and new ones will take its place. It’s outrageous how tilt and angry people get just because of they lose.
I am not a fan of the expansion either. The cards they printed are very targeted to a deck archetype, and it is hard to be innovative so far. Beside the druid/warrior that are abusing zilliax, the other tier 1 archetypes (painlock, pirate/aggro rogue and DH) have just been power boosted by 2/3 cards making the tier 2 decks from the previous meta impossible to play past turn 4.
The redeeming element is that this expansion seems to have taken out the potential for OTK from hand which was toxic and focused more on board control.
I hope to see new archetypes I might have missed come out but so far only painlock in warlock seems possible, only handbuff in paladin, only spell in mage, etc. which is going to be quite boring for the forfun players
Very ugly and bad meta, only OTK and aggro decks. Not fun to play against and not fun to play with either. So little variety... games last 5 minutes and done, wait for that one card and done. Where is the time games that went up and down and where there was tension. I also play to win, but with quality.
What is bad about this meta? Are you joking? Every second game playing against Druid or Warrior with their bullshit endless removal or endless immortaliax? This is bad about this meta.

Agree 100%
The main problem is Zilliax. The version played by control decks (lifesteal; reborn; etc) is insufferable.
In terms of full disclosure, my first post on this site was me complaining about C'Thun, before I learned how to play against it. I'm definitely Mr Glass House in this situation. :)
agreed its awful. rogue rogue rogue... but noo highlander decks had to be triple nerfed into the ground. i assume ele rogue and all this new bs will get changed 2 months from now. also zillax is far from a problem. imo
Ziliax far from a problem? Warrior ressurecting 2 ziliaxes 8 times a game is not a problem????
not in this expansion. im dead by turn 8 or 9 against ele rogue. full life +20 armor and they can unleash a full combo of like 70 dmg
I know the feeling. I am so excited to drop my Zilliax to stop the aggro deck against me but then they pop off even harder and im dead before turn 9 anyways. And I am playing Warrior... go figure.

i even had zillax in hand and other heals in hand ready to use but couldn't. i guess this is where i break. even after the triple nerfs to highlander i still tried my best. it was a fun few months at least. best of luck with it my dude
I've been reading this site since beta, and never once have made a post such as this.
This meta is so bad, and I'm not going to play it anymore.
This kind of message is posted, regular as clockwork, after each expansion.
The response is always the same: "The meta is brand new. Give it a week or so to settle down."

I appreciate your opinion. I will wait awhile before I decide. If you don't mind answering, what rank are you? How many games have you played roughly?
Not the worst but it feels that way because every meta has been bad for like half a year.

Oh look its another Groundhog Day thread... Against its the worst meta ever.... again like in every expansion.

Look at this video:
At 2:25. Keep in mind this is turn 5 and the player has a full board. Keep in mind that this direct from hand with just a location.
Keep in mind that the dev team were aware that this could happen and they decided to leave that in. Certainly doesn't help to keep a healthy meta.

I'm Diamond 4 with still the 2-star bonus (so "high" legend previously) and played roughly 50 games, though I'd say a clear pattern emerged after 10.
I will not be playing the 51st game, and I'm more than OK with it!
