Nobody mentioned Odd Paladin but it is sadly the best deck against hunter by far, that's why it's so prevalent right now. If you hate hunter and your dignity just play that brainless shit and enjoy the wins
Old decks like Odd Rogue and any Hunter deck will most likely keep on dominating, I don't see any card or archetype big enough to disrupt them. I think I'll hold off crafting anything until the rotation when the meta will actually be shaken as hell
I tried a lot of things, sometimes more agressive decks and sometimes decks looking like yours, and nothing quite worked out, it makes me sad.
The deck never feels quite agressive enough to beat control and combo and even though it has good match-ups against aggro there's no reason to run this instead of more refined anti-aggro decks
I was waiting for that post to come up. It's been 2 days man, wait it out....
Also the rotation will shake shit up, just quit the game until then if you're not enjoying it at the moment, and I don't say this in a mean way, for real if you want real change just take a break
Combo match-ups do feel hopeless but I'm not seeing many at the moment. If Kingsbane truly creeps up to the top of the meta I agree Control Priest will feel really lackluster though.
Odd Mage is also a good match-up so far but I suspect if my opponents drew Frostlich Jaina earlier it would have been much different.
Hey guys, I've been seeing a ton of Odd Paladin lately, especially in the brawl, so I decided to play it's worse match-up: Control Priest.
It seems like the deck received a few new additions this season and it feels really good in the meta at the moment.
Do you think it's only temporary because of all the hunter/odd paladins on ladder at the moment or do you think the deck now has a solid place in the meta?
Hearthstone simply targets a different player base. RNG is fun when you don't take the game super seriously and the most improbable thing happens (see any trolden video for example)
Hardcore card game fans probably need to detach themselves from Hearthstone or just play Arena where your skills actually matter more
Because Curvestone is so "skill demanding" and super fun. No thanks. Arena is a meme format.

It is 100% going to be just a card back. They gave us 6 free packs on log-in though I'm not complaining

Spell Hunter is definitely going to be a powerhouse for a while, I think it's the safest craft at the moment

literally no new deck.. though I understand why people go safe in this one it still kinda sucks

Opened 50 packs total, got the exact 3 legendaries I absolutely did not want:
hir'eek the bat, druid loti and the rogue pirate dude... I'm pissed

Maybe just returning players trying to complete quests like ''play X minions with more than 5 attack'' to try and get gold for the next xpac?
I don't know why anyone would run shit like Felsoul Inquisitor or Wee Spellstopperthough lol

Shitty constructed netdecker has been spotted

I doubt it... it's becoming less and less relevant in standard and is basically non-existant in wild. Genn and Baku are the real problem nowadays

Cool idea but it sounds kinda weak to the point where it will either suck really bad or be overtuned to the point of being too good
