Used to be an arena player for years,but now its very unfun. The skillcap became insanely low,you dont need any logics in ur playstyle,if you playing against mage or priest you cant even play around anything cuz their whole deck is random,u losing to the random generated random cards,priest dragon discover is a common for 1 mana which grants u 3 legendary choices 99% of the time,mage discovers are also broken,the pool is so small that a lot of cards are busted it feels like...It is about who can make a bigger rng clownfiesta,not about any skill anymore...at 10-11 wins i get 150-200g,used to get near 500 back in the time,what the fuck happened with my fav mode,meanwhile some classes are nearly unplayable if u wanna win games...
So what do you guys suggest for someone who never plays arena ? Mage and priest because of discover options ? How about rogue and hunter are they good ? I have a lot of tavern tickets to spare and I need to get 5 gold.

The other people dont know what theyre talking about. The current top classes in Arena are Druid>Rogue>Shaman>War. I just did an 11 win run with lock
My last run was a 12-1 with Demon hunter, but both priest and druid are solid for different reasons. I think the mode is decent atm. There are less nobrainer cards than when Descent of dragons were in at least.
I think a lot of people forget how powerful tempo/burst strategies are and lean towards value instead. If you follow the old "always trade and go for long term value" saying, you will likely get pretty pissed on all the priests, that simply draft this strategy a lot easier than the other classes.
Druid often wins with big minions like fizzy elemental and has resizing pouch for extra big drops. DH/Rogue has good burst and tempo. Warrior has good rush-mid range going. Priest seems like the only real value player here, but also often shines with idol of Y'shaarj and other big threats.
Right now I don't even think that there is any really bad class in arena. Hunter might be the worst, but you can still get decent WR if you know how to play pressure based mid range well.

100% agreed
I hate to see what happened to this mode and I think that they care less about arena since duels were released.
The Arena is now like Tavern Brawl with decks filled with random cards. It's literally the same experience.
Same feelings. Classic mode for Arena would be awesome.
