It's not a weird thing to say in the least. Everyone has the right to take a break if they don't happen to like the way the game is situated at the moment. That's not in any way comparable to putting up threads about people who play meta decks not having integrity or blaming balance for inability to progress on the ladder.
I'm not faulting him, I just think it's funny that he said that the same day he rather emphatically said "I'm not playing tomorrow because of [Lunacy Mage]!!!!"
The main thing for me is I thought this meta had REAL potential. There were metas I liked fine last year, but I've always thought the core set kept the classes from being what they *should* be. So I thought this year, with the new core set, and how overall well designed I thought the year of the phoenix was, that we'd have a really healthy, solid meta.
Which -- I think overall we do. I think most match-ups are pretty fair, every class feels imposing, the new core set I think -- overall -- has been a great success. The cards feel impactful, but nothing feels broken.
But I'm really bummed out by how strong Paladin has consistently been for the last year and Blizzard's unwillingness to tone it down even a little. And no-minion mage is just gross. Beatable, but really gross, and forcing a lot of stuff I like playing just out of the meta.
Kibler hit the nail on the head on his stream today. So many people in this community are just never happy. The meta is always “the worse it’s ever been.” People love love love to complain and blame the game for their losses. This happens every single time.
I mean from a guy who's not even going to stream hearthstone tomorrow because he's so annoyed with deck of lunacy mage that's a really weird thing to say. But, mostly he's right.
