So I created a F2P account a week back. Currently have a whole 14 wins, yay!

Last night I had 2 quests that involved Druid wins so built a rubbish deck with the cards at hand and jumped into casual.

3 games in a row all against Handlocks! Man if I were actually new this would put me off. Got lucky enough to deal early damage on one guy and final turn ran 2 minions into a taunted Ancient Watcher and used an Ironbeak Owl on a taunted Giant to run my final minion into face for the kill. If I were new though I would have been stomped so much worse, feel so sorry for new people running into netdeckers. The other 2 guys destroyed me since I ws playing with a near basic deck.

I hate when people play face hunter or mech mage in casual. Whenever I do quests, I either do the in ranked or make a silly deck to try to fish for wins with, like patron hunter :) (dreadscale value).

Its even worse when the face hunter spams "thanks" when they win, especially in casual.

I don't think the matchmaking system takes decks into account. It supposedly only cares about WR so you probably got matched against people who are new (bad) at the game but have spent money to buy those cards. No?

Thankfully, Handlock is quite hard to master so beating inexperienced Handlock players is easy (coin into mountain giant anyone? :P).

I feel like Coin-Mountain Giant is a rite of passage for the aspiring Handlock player XD. Just like everyone learning Oil Rogue should at some point go Prep-Coin-try-to-cast-Sprint-and-cry.

Buit if I only had 14 wins at that point is it likely to play someone that already has 4 epics in their deck? That would be ALOT of money or insane luck very early. Not only that the first guy ripped me, hes obviously experienced.

Casual is filled with cancer decks now.

I actually did that once. I thought "Sprint on turn 3? I'm a genius!" and then I realized I wasn't such a genius after all. It felt bad but at least I didn't do it again. :P
