I love this expansion. Finally no more pally and a control meta. Thats the only thing i wanted to see.
On the contrary, Paladin is stronger than ever due to this expansion. Instead of focusing on small minions, they now have a big minion oriented deck that is a real powerhouse and counters Bomb Warrior and much of the meta. I’m excited for the new direction Paladin is heading in!
What Paladin deck?
I hope you don't mean Secret Paladin, cause it will be countered by Hunter if it ever becomes a success (Flare instantly guts the entire deck, and Hunter just got a handful of spell generation).
I'm not entirely sure, but I think he refers to a Heal or Dragon archetype. Those are to me, the most prominent at the moment.
Run away. Hide in your precious keeps, behind your walls and your bodyguards. Night always falls, and shadows will fill your hallowed halls. You won't hear me, a lifeless and remorseless silhouette, wandering around you and you will not even get the opportunity to call for help. That day, darkness will override the light in your heart and make you one of us.
Clearly you don’t remember pirate warrior at whispers of the old gods or patron warrior. Both of those decks were so bad that classic cards had to be nerfed into completely unplayable. FWA wasn’t a ridiculous card until pirate warrior, which had the exact same 3 cards played for the first 3 turns, if you played those cards, you win. There was no counter. Patron warrior was an Otk at possibly the soonest we have ever seen one, it was great to see an opponent drop a 3 cost minion with charge and 12+ attack. Every class has had a “cancer” deck. It just means that they are the strongest class in the meta. If you don’t like bomb warrior, make a counter deck, blizz gave you the tools to counter it. Although, warrior is a bit one sided with removal and aoe, which in a control heavy meta really favors them. It would have been nice to see priest, mage and shaman get some new aoe and removal since they lost the best ones in the game.
I wasn't there back then. I started playing the game right after Un'Goro went live.
In other words I play the game since April 2017. Since then, at least in the lower ranks in which I play (never been a great player, and it doesn't look like it's going to improve unless I start playing "easy" meta decks, as you can see from my hand in the picture above I run weird decks of my own conception), Warrior has never been that much of an issue for me. The only Warriors that I almost always lost again were Control warriors, and, oddly, Control Warriors have never made me tilt. What makes me tilt is the total opposite of them - aggro decks. And since I've never known any Warrior aggro deck, I like Warrior. I play Control Warrior myself and am considering playing Bomb Warrior. I wanted to play it before the expansion went live, but now that everyone is pouring hatred over it, I have mixed feelings about it.
On a side note, does anyone want to play some friendly matches ? I'd love to just chill and see what decks people are trying to run and this young meta. (my battletag is on the left)

Hey guys, remember that the two expansions to come are meant to complete the first. In my opinion, the meta already nicely changed with the odd and even leaving, and aggro paladin fina-fucking-lly outta here. Maybe the two next expansions will make it better. Give it time, folks.

On a personal note, I think that the fact that games take longer is a nice thing. I've always liked better long games, cause you actually get the opportunity to play the DAMN game and do something. As someone who builds their own decks but who is (telling from empirical experience, achieved rank 14 at best although I have 780 wins with Rogue) not the best at it, my decks are often sloppy and suffer from early game slowness. So I very much enjoy this extra time. (Still got killed T6 by a Pirate Rogue, but heh.)

I agree that Bomb Warrior is strong, but frankly, I don't mind it too much, because for me Warrior has never been a cancer class and I like it.
As of Burgle Rogue, I know it's not a meme deck anymore, but if you ask me it's far from being the best deck in the meta. At least when I play it, I always get the worst possible luck with Espionage. Really.

Ok, I have to admit. Some things bug me. Sometimes.

PS : and also the flavour is nice, isn't it ?

Overall, I like it. My two favorite classes (Rogue & Warrior) got interesting cards that seem fun to play around with, or straightfoward strong.
I just regret, as usual, that the "themes" of the set are not used enough (lackeys, twinspells, so on so on).
PS : and there are a few cards that don't even make sense. Hello Dr. Boom's scheme.
