This is so far from enough.

How a company like Blizzard can miss the mark SO fucking hard is beyond me. Someone should get fired.

Its honestly embarassing and its like they dont know how many people are playing their game and pouring money in to it. 

Nerfing after 1-2 weeks is a good reaction time, nerfing after 2 days is just bad testing. And the way this is implemented is horrible! Finding out a card got nerfed not when building my deck but in the accual game WTF blizz?

I'm on bronze league yet all I am fighting are players with tier 1 decks that play like robots. No fun decks at all, no funny mistakes, endless amount of galakrond Rogues and highlander mages with 6+ legendaries.

If this new system was supposed to make it more fair, I honestly don't see it, my experience has been the absolute worse. I had way more fun back in rank 5 matches than this lower league bullshit.

Edit: I found a workaround, just auto-concede a bunch to get your "MMR" down. After about 30 games of mostly doing it, I am mostly fighting fair decks now and I'm enjoying being in Silver. Its quite sad that it had to come to this but gotta do the workarounds for such a feel bad system.

Someone doesn't know what prologue means.

Let's not

 thanks for enriching the debate

I know you can beat the secret mage, the question is his absurd win rate !!!!!!!!
what's the point if i play raza priest and win once if i lose another 10?

Let's talk about secret mage!
Please be smart and don't talk to use cards that destroy secrets, I know they exist but the question here is different.
According to HSReplay, secret mage is up to the day and time of this post with 68.4%, what do you think about it? Is it acceptable for a deck to have this win rate?
The deck has approximately 13 spells and 16 minions, of which 10 are secrets. Of these spells we have 12 damage with fireballs + 18 damage with forgotten torch (adding 30 damage with only 4 +2 cards generated by torches). Within the 16 minions we have 12 damage with Cloud Prince + 6 damage with Medivh's Valet adding 18 damage with 4 minions.
With 8 cards the deck has the potential to deal 48 damage. These damage points can be increased in the best possible scenario +12 damage with the duplicate secret and we still have explosive runes damage.
The deck has 4 cards that filter your deck buying the secrets and 2 of them leave the secret costing zero.
We also have Mad Scientist who puts a secret of his deck directly on the field.
And finally, we have 4 cards that have as a battle cry leaving the secret costing zero.

Now let's talk about 3 secrets of the mage.
Explosive runes, if played in turns 1-3, we have very few minions capable of absorbing 6 damage and we also lose the turn, which gives the mage more advantage since, for him, but a turn did not enter the minion on the board, giving on average, according to the life of your minion 5-3 points of damage to you.
We also have counter spell, if you are low on health (let me remember that the deck can deal 48 points of damage) and need to heal but there is no other spell in hand to burn the secret, you died!
Ah but I can beat the secret mage by making a big board full of minions, then the secret Flame Ward comes in, that if you attack the opponent you lose the board and we are back to square one. With all this, if you have no cards in hand, you still have the legendary weapon that, despite losing a turn to equip it, in the next turn you already have all the gas back.

For the smart ones who will speak to use cards that destroy secrets. We have 2 cards that destroy all the opponent's secrets, 1 that destroys just a random secret and 1 that you take control, if you are going to use all these cards to counter the secret mage, you would need to release 8 slots in your deck to be able to fit them, currently one or two are rotated which is not enough to soften the strength of the deck.

So, dear companions, do you think this win rate is fair? Or do you play mech pala or have an entire deck of healing to beat secret mage, why did you complain so much about Galakrond Shaman but accept this mage win rate?
The game has become extremely frustrating for those who play wild, or you hope the mage buys extremely badly and has a chance or just makes the combo esc + concede

This is a long-standing problem with Hearthstone in my opinion. If this was a tabletop card game, the lazy wording would never work. Many times, we are forced to play with the card to see how it actually behaves. The Amazing Reno is a perfect example. Do the minions die? Do their deathrattles trigger? Does it affect dormant minions? No way to tell other than playing the card.

If you need the dust and are certain you wont play wild dust them... but if you dont, dont do it... wild is pretty fun, and it gets better every expansion... 

dont be sorry after dusting them...!

 I concur. Up to rank 15 at the very least, wild is immensely more fun than standard. Sure you run into the usual braindead cancer meta deck (secret mage more often than not) but plenty of people just play old decks or decks they created. Unlike standard, which is cancer straight from rank 25 and certainly doesn't get any nicer going upwards.
