Well the only thing my opponent needed from his Ysera was Ysera Awakens guess what he gets...

It took me less time to get to rank 5 last month, than to rank 10 this one -.-

Today I met:

6x Anyfin (0-6)

4x Freeze mage (1-3)*

All this while I was playing control Priest. Holy crap. I spent basically 3 hours winning a match and then losing 1, win 2, lose 2 etc etc, without moving from rank 12. I had to swap to Burst Shaman to finally make it to rank 10 in 15 minutes, but goddammit I wanted to play Control Priest.

* = won vs Freeze Mage by pinging and healing his Acolyte of Pain, burning a few burst cards that made it impossible for him to win. Of course vs Anyfin they draw both Anyfins before I get my 2 Entombs, because Fun&Interactive.

Third freakin time I write here today, but I am so salty over this shit rng fiesta. What are the chances that after, in one day, losing 7 games in a row to secret paladins only with freeze mage, I install this shitty patch, get queued up into 5 agro decks in a row with my ramp druid, and when I switch back to freeze mage, I face 4 control and a reno warrior in a row? And you know what's the sad part? I even beat 2 control warriors, because they suck so much, which just shows how much pure luck did all the other games have in my opponents favor, both drawing and matchup-wise.
Again, how is this even possible?...

Edit, as I wrote this down, I faced the 5th warrior. They say agro is brainless, control warrior is just like for the brainless, with more money. About as interactive as watching your floor 24 hours straight.
Edit2, 6th :)

 Please, kind sir, enlighten me, how is freeze mage appears to be more interactive than the bold italic statement of yours?

 I'm sorry your deck doesn't work in the two-day long metagame, your life is so hard. I feel that blizzard generally did a good job with the nerfs, although blade flurry was hit like a truck, but freeze mage should have been hit in all honestly (I am not the only one who believes this). The reason warrior can armor up out of 30 damage burst is because the hearthstone developers dislike bursty, combo decks dominating the meta; if no class could do that then freeze mage would be broken. Instead of bitching about how "broken" control warrior is, you should be thankful that freeze mage didn't get hit wth a nerf, like it probably should have. You have to have a bad matchup somewhere, and if your deck isn't working in the current metagame, either change it so it does better against warrior or play another deck. Your insatiable need for a 100% win-rate is a problem a large portion of the hearthstone community has, and is what is slowly turning this community into something toxic and chronically whiney. Again, if your deck doesn't work, play something else; the developers explicitly said they wanted the metagame to change a lot with standard, you just shouldn't be mad or surprised about this, not to mention the fact that tomorrow this could all change. 

Fuck blizzard and their nerfs to druid. Damn it.

About a month ago, I had the misfortune of drafting 2 Gadgetzan Jousters in an otherwise solid arena deck. Having two meant I usually had one in my opening hand, and saw the other midway through the game. During my forth game, I played out my second jouster, and lost the joust. "Hang on" I said to myself. That was my 5th jouster, every single joust failed. So I started counting. Nine failed jousts with the Jouster before I succumbed to a 7-3 run. Since then I've been avoiding the Jouster, but will still take it when it is technically the best pick. I never stopped counting though.

16 FAILED JOUSTS IN A ROW.... AND COUNTING. I CAN TASTE MY OWN RAGE.

So annoyed, have to finish a stupid rogue/warrior quest.  Usually I do ok with Patron , but I just lost 8/10 then I play mill rogue cause F it. Win one, then lose 4 in a row all to secret pally or face hunter and a damn murloc warlock.  

But what tipped me over the edge is I play a perfect game against a freeze mage, including burning his Tony and Alex... but with 8 Cards left in the deck I have not drawn Oracle/gang up or my other healbot..... wtf! Still almost beat them and they were already in fatigue....

overall lost 12 of 15...ooof, but I ended by beating a mech mage AND a secret Paladin, and for the secret pally I didnt not even mill him, just stomped him with a few minions and a really nasty Dark Iron Skulker (really needed sorry emote when he playedSword of Justice, into hero power/ Muster for Battle, really felt bad man)

fuck, i was sure blizz had fixed the issue with ghost charge minions. bullshit.

so there am i, hunter about to finish a secret cocksucker pally, i can finish him in 2 ways but, i choose to put Reckless Rocketeer on board cuz her laugh is the best sound in the wold to kill a stupid secret pally in rank 17, but there she is, standing unselectable and more quiet than a Silent Knight, then i have resort to a damm BM, good thing he fall for it.

Died to face shaman on turn 5. what good is Reno?

I don't care if avenge is rotating out of the standard. This is just an excuse to get rid of secret paladin without admitting it should be nerfed. I want secret paladin nerfed to the ground. I want mysterious challenger to be included to the classic set so it can be nerfed to  give your secrets with charge +1 attack. 

So Blizzard stops printing secrets, keeps MC in rotation til next year, introduces the crappy kezan alternative as one of the first cards of WotoG, and we're all supposed to be ok with it because all the GvG paladin stuff and avenge is out? Yo, I want more paladin secrets! I was expecting at least 10 paladin secrets in WotoG. What about the next expansions of this year? Why did you guys stop printing them? There's no  card limiting the design space or anything... definitely not Mysterious challenger! The only card limiting design space was blade flurry. Thank god its nerfed so I can finally play my first 500 win class cosplaying as pre-tunnel trogg shaman.  

Arena, last week.

Turn 8. Opponent has 22 life and a single small creature. I have about full life and no board. I play Antonidas and a dumb spell to profit a fireball. I've got a pyroblast in hand.

Next turn, he plays Chromaggus and ping Antonidas. What do I do? Pyroblast Chromaggus. 

If I have double fireballed his face, I would have 2 fireballs and one pyroblast, would force him to trade into Anthony, and pyroblast his face. :(

Arena, last week.

I draft a wonderful Shaman deck (currently 6-1). Today I face a rogue, make some terrible mistakes, and get outtempoed. Turn 7, he had played a Boulderfist Ogre on turn 6. I have BGH and Dark Iron Dwarf in hand, he has some small minions beside the Ogre. OK, I think, I drop Dark Iron on his Ogre, and BGH it.

Ops, BGH now costs 5. DAMMIT!

Good start for a day. 5 loses in a row. In the first game enemy tempo mage (of cause with perfect turn 1 mana wyrm) just wins the game on the spot when his arcane missles kill my 1-health and 2-health minions. Not a single missle went face. I could kill his wyrm next turn if only I had something on board, using abusive sergeant. But instead I have to face 5/3 mana wyrm 2 turns after. Good thing I have imp-losion? Yeah... Rolls for 2.. Then few games vs priests with no hope of winning whatsoever, and then, in a 6th game I play vs Reno hunter. Of cause he has Reno amongst his first 8 cards, but whatever. I still have board. Get him to 11 hp, he plays deadly shot into my board of 4 imps, doomguard and sea giant and kills sea giant. Then his ragnaros, which he had on the board, goes face, leaving me with 5 hp, making me have to topdeck 2 damage for lethal or I die. Of cause I topdeck fucking haunted creeper and imp gang boss

6 loses in a row... Not a single win today.

Fuck this game

 Looks like we're about to see a ton of Freeze Mages and hear a lot of "Well Played."
