I don't know how 1) Deathwing made it out of internal testing, and 2) Deathwing wasn't removed from the pool almost immediately, and 3) Deathwing STILL hasn't been removed from the pool.

It's not that he comes in first every time. It's that he COMPLETELY FUCK YOU in the midgame, hitting you for WAY too high. You basically have to buy based on DW matchups. Horrible design.

You can’t win against a golden soul juggler, how has this shit not been fixed yet. It has been warping the meta before dragons and it still is after dragons.

 I was just in a lobby where THREE people in the lobby were playing soul juggler builds and all were doing it successfully (i.e., fucking people up in the midgame). Fuck that shit.

Just had a great(ish) murloc run as Shudderwok. Had 5 triples at 5 ... not a single fucking megasaur. How is that possible? Brann never showed up either (was at 5 for about 5 rounds). I had a golden Zap ... wtf. Fuck this game.

Im sorry, but who the hell goes beasts these days in BG? It is the worst strategy you can go.

 You don’t “go” beast, but sometimes it can line up. Beast builds can be very strong still but you need to get to rank 5 early. Deathrattle beasts is one of my favourite comps. Best hero for it is patchwork in my experience.

my biggest frustration is AFK. It seems like I ALWAYS face afk in their third power spike turn. EXCEPT when I have rafaam. Then IALWAYS face her on turn 2 when she has no minions. I actually tracked this for a day and the rng was absurd. 10 games with afk and 8 times it happened like this.

 A response to this and an update to my previous salt post. I DID IT!! I had a perfect game with Patchwork. Ended with 50 health. With a deathrattle beast build!

Little about me. I have never had a perfect run. I've always wanted a perfect run. I play around 6000. Not great (I concede too often when angry or bored lol and I don't really play for top four ... I go for #1 or bust). But I am okay.

I was gifted a great Tirion board. I had FIVE Bolvars early. I stomped people. Was going into the last battle with 40 health. I was ready. I was going to do it. It was with Tirion, which is a little cheap (I created the post bitching about Tirion after all lol) ... but I was going to do it! The perfect game. I didn't say those words out loud. You don't fuck with a streak.

"You can win this thing," Bob told me.

The board loaded. Divine shield poisonous murlocs as far as the eye can see. I didn't have a chance.

I did not have a perfect game. I conceded in shame.

My two biggest are: 

1) Going beasts and Pack Leader / Hyena gets sniped IMMEDIATELY (even after taunts) in the midgame, making the stretch to late game deathrattle build TOUGH.

2) Fuck murlocs. Tier 4 triples giving shit options. No seers EVER showing up. No megasaurs or, maybe worse, awful options from megasaurs.

Honorable mention for facing AFK on turn three. Man that rarely feels good. Or ... playing as AFK and getting garbage picks lol.
