That could easily be it. In arena you have to use whatever you are good at. I'm good at control, midrange, and fatigue, and not so good at tempo or aggro. This is why rogue is actually a bad class for me. I'm not good enough at playing like that.
But for you, you may be amazing at different classes. So just use whatever you are good at.
Unless you have stats I'm well aware of the high variance you can draft in Priest decks to make broken decks.
Meh, I don't have like a significant number of statistics, I've only done 7 recorded priest runs. But my runs have been extremely consistent, averaging 6.86 Wins per run, and the mean win is 7. Stats here. http://www.heartharena.com/profile/kaioxys
I'm thinking the reason is that priest hero power is so valuable. You win the zoo ggame because of it, and it's hard to burst you down because of it. Winnin as Priest for me is ALL about winning the resource war. Going second is better as priest when you realize this, because you want your opponent to run out of cards first. You want your answer to cripple and outvalue them. Which is another reason your hero power is so good. Your minions can't be whittled down because you can just heal them, so you don't need to constantly put out more minions, you just heal the ones you already have.
Finished the month with a 7.1 average! As you can see I didn't play Priest, Druid, Shaman, or Warrior. They're what I consider the bottom classes. Not going to explain this since I think it's been pretty much agreed upon by many veteran players. Priest and Shaman can have some really high value control decks if they draw/draft the right decks but it feels powerless on average when pitted against Rogue/Mage/Paladin/Hunter.
Guides are upvoted a lot here so check it out if you're seriously considering Arena leaderboard!
I don't think Priest is bottom tier. But maybe that's just my playstyle? Mage is my best class followed by Priest and then Warrior, But i've only got 1 warrior run so who knows how good it really is. But I have a ton of games with Priest. With Talonpriest Amber Mind Control, Dragonfire Potion, its pretty Freaking Broken honestly.
10 Runs with a 9.2 average says nothing, you could totally be on an upswing (just wildly guessing 9.2 isn't your true average). What's your average over the last 100 runs?
Yeah probably on an upswing. I think what it was was that I was getting alot of mage during that time (I have 8.77 avg wins with mage) but as of now I've only got 40 runs recorded. I've been recording all of my arena runs since February. I have average 6.63 wins out of the 40 recorded runs i have. I doubt i've even played 100 runs of arena. I have 547 arena wins total, and If i Divide that by 6 that's only 91 runs.
I think it's stupid that I have to do 30 runs to make it to the top 100. Who even has time to do that?
Im averaging 9.2 wins this month so far, over 10 runs. But there's just no way I'll make it to 30. I'm sure I would be pretty high up there on the rankings, I'm just too busy with irl things.
I feel like they should lower it to 15 runs, that way people that have lives can qualify too.
Let's see, It takes like 2 hours to do an arena run, so that's 60 hours of playing per month, or 15 hours a week. I mean good grief. That's too much.

I like to make cards and discuss game balance.
I enjoy when "No similar decks were found."
