Its sounds like OP thinks hes going to have better results once the strong heroes are nerfed...

 I don’t think I even mentioned my results

 Well maybe you should then. Then we would at least know if you are bad or not. 90% of these posts are made by frustrated people who cant get better rating and blame balance for that.

 I hovered around 8.5k before the update and I’m at 5k this update

 So is that it? This update is "absolutely ridiculous" (your words) because you cant get over 5k and blame Rag and Jandice for it? Why is that so many other players can get higher ratings even with these evil OP heroes out there?  Top 200 starts at around 10k... how are those people able to get that rating.... mystery... they must be getting only Rag and Jandice offered... luck it must be...

Anyway, like i said, yet another frustrated person creating a thread because he cant get a better rating. (its fine tho, its what forums are for).

Its sounds like OP thinks hes going to have better results once the strong heroes are nerfed...

For me, this change ruins solo experience and makes me want to play BGs less. Now every game there are chance i am playing with group of players who might or might not at some level create an unfair game. Boosting potential is very big in this setup.

How many paladins did you see at gms this weekend? 

 

 Most GM's dont bring Paladin cause they know its broken and other will have prepare for it and bring counters. 

 Even if what you say is true (paladin being broken), its not broken enough that it needs nerfs if there are many counters.

Btw Gms dont bring paladin because its an inferior deck to decks they bring.

Hey guys just thought I’d drop my two cents. Right now I’m top 800 legend and it’s rare for me to see paladin in general. I’ve tried the deck and to me what it seems is that the deck can 

1. draw well and do decently or

2. draw poorly and have no chance at winning games.

The deck is just too inconsistent and though it has a good matchup against druids, it drops in popularity the higher you go through legend. Data seems to be very skewed recently (don’t ask me why) but the stats on libram paladin’s winrate remind me of murloc paladin last expansion which, although it showed a high winrate, was a tier three deck at best. And although tournament/gm showings have different rulesets I think it’s still good to look at the evidence that paladin has been rarely/not at all been taken up as a deck of choice.

 Lots of decks can "draw badly and have no chance at winning" lol. I love the way people keep insisting "it's a tier 3 deck actually" even though the stats say otherwise. Yesterday I check high legend stats on NA and it was the best deck at 53% - it probably won't be today. I think high legend is a volatile meta and it changes ALL the time with such a small player pool. At one point tortollan mage looked viable. Would you play that at a lower rank because it eats libram paladin for breakfast? No because it has a 38% winrate at lower ranks. Btw, it doesn't just match up well against druid. That's just something people keep saying that isn't true, according to the stats.

 So whats your take on why GMs are not taking advantage of this powerhouse of a deck that libram paladin is? Why they are not bringing this deck to crush all other decks? I mean why take bomb warrior , tempo mage, highlander priest, guardian druid, malygos druid and endless variations of rogue when they can take the OP libram paladin and crush these decks.

I personally like pure paladin deck, its fun to play it and its also nice that its so strong that its ALMOST viable in legend ranks.

Also the fact that this deck is not popular in GMs should tell you something. It just cant deal with any top tier decks despite what all stats sites tell.

Big Changes:

1. Less gold
2. Less dust
3. More cards/set
4. More grinding

and most importantly, more money for us, yay!

Who honestly gives a flying fuck about those rich streamer boys getting into a tournament? How about opening it up fairly to the rest of the hearthstone community? Fuck off Blizzard seriously.

 It would've been better if jandice just wasn't an option to pick if mechs popped up.   Getting rid of pogos entirely just removes a fun alternative.

Why can't they just make it so if someone can choose Jandice Mechs are not in the game or at least Pogo-Hoppers are not in the minion pool? Why do you have to remove one of the most iconic and fun minions to play in the game?

"Our" thoughts? I hate it when people take their own opinion and project it onto the majority of the playerbase.

lol. Battlegrounds is shit. i dont play it

 It may be hard to believe, but you are not the only one who plays the game.

I'm sick of hidden internal ratings.  Your external rating should be your only rating.  It has severely diminished my enjoyment in Ladder to be facing tier 1 decks from the first day of a month at Bronze 10.  It will do the same to any "rating reset" in battlegrounds.

So basically, your external rating is useless and just there to look pretty?

Way too easy, way too quick, and I'm pretty confident this has zero replayability. Joy this is getting stretched over a year???

Well, at least it's free, cuz you definitely get what you pay for in this case.
