Few months ago I noticed that I started to play ranked with no interest, just game after game, turn after turn, win after win, or lose after lose. I thought a little, took a look at my stats, and realized that I had been playing mostly two classes (Hunter and Warlock), thx Naxx and GvG. Then I decided, that I never play these classes until other classes get the same number of wins in ranked match-ups.
And I started a long journey with a Priest until I reached the same win's number on a Rogue. After that I played Rogue and Priest — one win for Rogue, one — for Priest, and so on. Yesterday I equalized all classes by win's numbers. Two months with not a single game on hunter and it really was worth it! Thanks to it, I have now really deeper understanding, experience, and the last (but not the least) — I gain a hunger for battle, every match-up now is really interesting.
Now I play every class until I win, and switch it for the next one. If I lose a couple of games, I simply change some cards or archetype. You would say: "Hey, but how do you want to hit a legend this season?" And you are totally right, it is very difficult task (for me of course), but it's a nice challenge. Moreover I have a little dream: there will come a happy day, when all nine classes would have 499 wins in ranked. And one by one I'll make all nine heroes Golden. I have a beautiful goal now, and I think Hearthstone never would be boring for me.
Thank you.
What I want to ask: is anybody here with such an experience?
P. S. English is not my native, so you're welcome to be a grammar-nazi, I'll appreciate.
I didn't switch classes after every win, I switched classes after about ~30 wins. Just a couple months ago, all of my classes got to around ~450 wins each and I got all 9 of them to be golden in just a month, it was super exciting.
I was watching firebat's stream today, he did almost same thing. It's funny , but you can't concentrate on own playstyle by switching archetypes so often. On long terms i think you able to be on head with any meta, cause you've had so much experience.
It does sometimes lead to situation where I think "oh man, do I have to play class X again, I really don't feel like it".
Right you are. But as for me. I just switch archetype, e. g. I was enough of patronOTK and switched to a really fun HobgoblinWar deck. This helps to remember clue cards of different archetypes, clue turns to play them and counter them. Moreover, if someone overplayed you with a extraodinary move — you take that in your pocket. Experience.

I don't think, there's any "own playstyle". There is a playstyle for every archetype. E. g. Ryzen. He's amazing, natural-born Rogue. But he has different playstyles for mill, oil, miracle, malygos decks. He just likes to play Rogue, and I like to play, just to play.
I do quests in ranked mostly, so i tend to play a class i dont rly like or i dont play as often and it makes for some cool games sometimes :) especially if i do like "cast 30 spells" or "play 30 minions for 2 or less mana / 5 or more mana" and i have deck stacked up like idiot and i get to win with that trololo deck :D
I thought I might be the only OCD "class-leveler" out there. Good to see I have some company. Since I started playing, I've been focused on using all 9 classes as opposed to using 1 or 2 classes and achieving a high rank. Besides, since I'm not that good anyway, I think "Legendary" (or any rank close to it) is out of my reach : (
At this point, I have all classes between Level 40 (Rogue and Shaman) and Level 50 (Mage), with the others somewhere in between. My ranked wins per class are much more skewed than my levels thanks to my "ladder anxiety" (oh yeah, I've got all sorts of issues...but I'll save that for some other time...lol). Generally speaking, Mage, Paladin and Hunter have the most ranked wins for me; then, Warlock, Warrior and Druid are somewhere in the middle; and Priest, Rogue and Shaman are picking up the rear.
I am having a lot of fun playing the game this way and as a few people already stated, I'm looking forward to acquiring all my golden heroes at approximately the same time (as well as reaching level 60 with all classes 'together').
I don't care about reaching 60 lvl at the same time, my mage is 59 lvl and priest is under 50 lvl, but there is more than 300 wins to golden. They all will be 60 lvl a long before 500 wins.
I'm always trying to play all nine classes. Maybe not in the ladder because only 2-4 are "good" enough to push it, but in casual play all of them are fun and have high win ratio. Got 4 60s by now, 3 more classes above 54 and 2 below 50, but this will change soon ; )

What I want to ask: is anybody here with such an experience?
I've got similar experience when I was given a daily quest to play rogue or someone, so I went with rogue. Yes, this enhanced my abilities on valuing The Coin and situational uses and combo crafting, and probably contributed to later arena experience of 9-3 (personal best out of 13). I usually play those classes that I get quests for, if they are 50+ gold worth, and since that distribution is pretty equal, I get a pretty steady set of win numbers for all classes. Still, two stand out - Warrior (good old Gorehowl as my first epic drove him upwards) and Mage (Flamestrike and an eventual Unstable Portal are powerhouses - if only I'd get me a second portal...).
Thanks to the fact that I reached 30 lvl in real life last March, I have not as much time to play HS as I want. Anyway I have all 9 heroes at 451 wins now, and I believe, that the "Golden Nine" day is near. I'm going to hit the 500th wins with the standard decks, that we all had when we just started to play HS.

You are exactly what is right with hearthstone and I share a similar, though slightly less strict pathway. Playing different decks and learning versatalitlity with the game, rather than jumping on the band wagon or the "if you can't beat em, join em" bandwagon when it comes to pirate warrior and Jade shaman. I constantly mix up my deck archetypes and play different classes. Keep doing what you're doing. I wish that all hearthstone players could play with different decks and keep changing it up and keep the meta new. Instead we got people that only care about the most simple and easy decks that ruin it for the rest of us. It's ok though. I continue to have faith and will eventually find a way to beat these aggro decks!
...definitely won't play 1 per class at a time. I still want to hit at least rank 5 each season...
That's ok for me to play 3-5 games in a row just to complete daily quests. As for ranks, it is quite easy to take 5th even play all 9 classes. I reached the 4th last month e.g. As for Wild option, I don't think it is a "cheating" mode, moreover, Ungoro comes, and the League goes wild, Ragnaros goes wild, Sylvanas, even Azure drakes go wild. That means, that all precious and strong decks you played yesterday in Standart are going to bloom in Wild.
I really can't image, when I finish my run, work isn't quite compatible with HS, you know, but I think it could take about 3 months or so.
Exactly! :) The funny thing about it, that I've never played Secret Paladin. And one day, when SecretPals went to the Wild format, I thought, that the time to try this cancerdeck has come. And what do you think? I realized that I had disenchanted both Doctors Six. So I can proudly say that I have never play SecretPaladins.
It is a very pleasant thing to know, that there are such players like you. Nice to meet you, I wish you best topdecks and mulligans.
471 wins for now. It is quiet hard to climb the ladder with a quest priest deck, other 8 decks are quite good and stable. 8 rank now, but it doesn't matter. I'll accomplish my mission in a month.
I obtained the last 2 golden heroes last night! Warlock (in wild) then Paladin (standard N'Zoth variant atm) the game after. Had to force myself to play warlock at the end to catch up then finished it off when my Paladin was at 499.

This was my exact experience actually.

Check here for my new cards!Pokemon HS class!All the Pokemon as HS cards!
I was watching firebat's stream today, he did almost same thing. It's funny , but you can't concentrate on own playstyle by switching archetypes so often. On long terms i think you able to be on head with any meta, cause you've had so much experience.
I used to do that, then they started giving out free golden epics for being a tryhard. So now i'm a tryhard.

As for me, Golden Epic is 400 dust per month. Moreover, you need to hit just the 5 rank to got it. And it is not difficult to do it.

Very cool goal. About 18 months later and you are really close. I wish you the best of luck!
I enjoy.
Death to all who oppose the Horde!
