I don't think that anyone will buy account with name like BVCA43D :P Got like 5 in row now... End yes, they extra easy to beat - just basic cards - but it's just soooo bloody boring...
I can't say anything new that hasn't been said, so I'll repeat it in short form.
You played a conservative control game which hedged the odds in your favor in case you ran into some weird clear. Losing Armor Up for your Ragnaros hero power and Sulfuras. That's not BM.
It's frustrating to be on the other side, but it's not BM.
Exactly this! i personaly wouldn't consider this BM - just a different strategy to win! Of course there are people who will consider almost everything as BM - hell there are people who think a "Greetings" emote at the Start of the Game is BM ...
Sometime I guess it's better to play aggressive and force them to trade into you (like they make me do).
You don't want to trade much when you play Aggro,only trade if you're forced to trade. And try to focus on countering your opponent's core cards.
For example:
In this game i was playing against a Kingsbane Rogue,and i knew that his core cards are buffs not Kingsbane because Kingsbane is nothing without buffs. So what i did was go face and ignore his cards on the board,he had 3-4 cards and my goal was to force him to trade while i go Aggro and as you can see it worked. If you decide to trade he'll build his Kingsbane.
I'm trying to grind out Golden Uther too using the same strategy and it's painful. 20% of my games in Standard (Rank 2-3) are against Druid, and 25% of my games in Wild (Rank 2-3) are against Druid. It's not a good time to play Paladin and unfortunately the class only has one viable deck (I have tried to counter queue SA druid in Wild with a control Pali with dirty rats but it can't draw into them as fast as Druid can).
I have found that the Mech Odd Package with Mecharoos, Glowtrons, and Wargears help a little bit against druid since you can try to build tall inside of wide. Blood Knights have the same benefit.
You're absolutely right. I'm gonna do about 20 more games today and will post my results in comparison to yesterday so that hopefully it can further help people in my position.
I'm really wanting to explore some sort of alternatives because Paladin is absolutely boring at the moment. I have 1400 wins with Priest and 500 with Rogue so really prefer playing those slow style games and combo-style stuff but none of that really seems to viable with Paladin.
Would just be nice to maybe see some updates from Blizzard whether it be nerfs or buffs to certain cards to allow for different archetypes for Paladin.
Y'know, even pally with healing and stuff is actually really decent; if you're confident with your ability as a player, there are 100% viable builds out there, and they're well fun to play too. I've tried 4 or 5 different pally builds in the last 2 weeks, and none of them were BAD, Healadin, control pally, full mech, etc. In fact, a lot of the time, the ladder is just not geared to countering it at all, so you can even win some games outright by turn 6, which is quite surprising.
That's true Even Paladin is a good deck and you can win against T1 decks playing Even Paladin.
I don't track win rates but i have images for each game. xD
And this is why i love Mech Paladin:
This poor huntard tried soooo many times to remove that 12/9 lmao.
Odd mech
This game ^ was just sad,i think it was against a Control Warrior.
At higher ranks Odd Paladin can be difficult to play (R5-Legend).
Hardest matchups are Druid & Warrior.
If you're facing a lot of Druids in your games add Mossy Horror,agaisnt Warriors it's more about luck if they play a lot of Taunts and removals it's GG.
Against other Aggro decks it helps if you start first,and remove their core cards.
Even Paladin is good,but don't craft it if you like to play fast aggro decks.
OTK Paladin i don't know how i feel about this deck,it's a cool deck but not worth 10K or more dust,just like Quest Paladin.
You can try murloc Paladin if you have cards.
My favorite Paladin decks are Mech,Even,Odd.
I usually use these decks.

Maybe you trade too much.

This is your answer why.
I only hate Druid because of SP and Warrior because of infinite armor.
