I've tried this deck off and on for the last couple seasons and have had very little success. Other popular decks in the meta just seem simply stronger and most consistent.
I've hit a bit of a brick wall against warlocks (both handlock and demon-zoo). Against handlock I can sometimes deal with the giants with lightbombs but then it's impossible to win against jaraxxus. Against demon zoo I just can't deal with the tempo and card draw; I never have enough answers.
I got super lucky one game and thought stole an owl + mortal coil to kill one 4/10 drake and sylvanas another 4/10 drake but still lost the game.
Omg I just had the funnest game vs a Paladin. It was really late game, we were both down to the last 3-4 cards, he casts Chromaggus; I mind control it. He casts Tirion, I draw double shrinkmeister from Chromaggus and take his Tirion with Cabal Shadow Priest. Lolz.
Tempo and mech mage are tough, but I think its one of the better matchups. Playing around secrets is key to victory. The problem with this match is, any mistake, even a little one can cost you the game.
People are complaining about tempo mage but from my statistic I have 69% win ratio, so more than decent.
Yea they are, I actually Zombie Chowed both Mirror Entitys one game and still lost. Some of their cards such as the Water Elementals can be tough to remove.
What do you guys think the skill to luck ratio is in hearthstone?
For example, chess is a perfect game that is 100% skill. Poker is a game that requires a lot of skill but also luck (maybe 25% luck, 75 % skill, debatable). I don't know much about other strategy games like starcraft but I've watched people play and it looks like it requires a high degree of skill.
Most of what is required to win games comes down to having the cards in your collection necessary to build decks that work well relative to what most other people are playing, being lucky enough to draw what you need when you need it, and then sometimes rolling lucky when it comes to random effects (boom bots, lightning storm, etc.)
Would it be an exaggeration to say that hearthstone only requires about 5% skill and then 95% luck + having the cards?

The problem is Druid is super popular and a really tough match-up for CW :(

That shouldn't happen very often, this deck is amazing against hunter. I probably win 9/10.

Watch Strifecro on youtube. He plays a lot of druid, one of the best players and does a good job of explaining his plays and stuff.

Any tips to improve the Druid match-up? I can't stop the combo...

I subbed out the Sen'jin Shieldmasta for a Kezan Mystic since there are quite a few mages and lots of hunters around still.

Much Tirion Fordring's have been Mind Controlled. Many Leper Gnome have been Zombie Chowed.

Perhaps I should have phrased the dichotomy as 'skill' and 'non-skill factors' or something. And no, I'm not "sour grapes," I own most of the cards.
