Gives me hope that people aren't just going the easy route and actually want to use skill in playing. Make it more fun.
I don't see how facehunter is fun. It's just playing whatever card you get and hitting face and hoping no taunts show up. I think it's a lot of fun playing against them and frustrating them as the deck I made they stand very little chance against it as much as they try. Yes. I've lost to them when I don't get the right cards when I need them but that is rare. Fun to frustrate the eboladins and face hunters and hope they learn to make a real deck and stop taking the easy way out for cheap wins. I'm more impressed with skill rather than just net-decking and going face without even thinking.
But when you get past the try-hards in ladder it get's good again and the skilled players are there. Up to 12 the try-hards are out in force. Not that going past that is any better as you just get other decks that are net-decked and rare you see any originality. Problem with that is that it's all very predictable. We all know the order and how things are going to play out. Which makes it easier for me as I just disrupt that flow and they aren't left with anything to do.
Wouldn't original decks be better for the ladder rather than just the predictable decks we get now? Meta is easy to counter now as it is predictable. When I lose a match usually, not always, it's against a non-meta deck and seen some very clever ones out there. It throws off my game as I don't know what's coming and where skill needs to come in to win the match. I do like that as it is the reason why I got into Hearthstone.. the strategy. Very much like chess. Always thinking a turn or two ahead when you make a play.
I have a pretty big collection of cards and Face Hunter is one of my top 5 favorite decks. You should be happy that you have a good grasp on how certain match-ups play out. I don't see the problem. Use it to your advantage.
The reason I like Face Hunter is because the games usually come down to killing the other guy before they kill you next turn. Very close and tense games. I like how you have to make clever minion trades sometimes. I like killing people with Leeroy Jenkins.
Like this Shaman I just faced. Was quite creative in how he played. Something I've never seen before.
Turn 3 pulls out Alarm-o-bot. Trades out for Earth Elemental taunt - awesome. No overload and gets in on early. I freeze and he pulls out alarm-o-bot again. Trades out for Deathwing. Doesn't lose hand. DW is on board by turn 5. I freeze or blizzard. Once again, he does alarm-o-bot. Trades for Healbot - obviously not what he wanted Does it again and this times get Ragnaros.
Next turn he does.. no idea what that card is called - Shaman card - pulls out a card from each players hand and puts it on the board - His was Malygos.
Hits me for 10 in the face with a spell after Deathwing has his way with me and that was game. Quite creative and not seen that much. All depends on what you mulligan and the first few pulls so it's way too rng based but when it works as it did for him in that match quite fun. But too much RNG to make it competitive.
