I was playing Deck of Lunacy back in DMF because it's fun. Now everyone and their dog is playing it, what, because some streamers figured it was good? The deck needed better draw, and now it has it. Guess it's the best now. Quite the fine line, is it?
It's really unfortunate that a deck can go from "wow, you play that trash tier garbage?" to "wow, you play that stupidly good deck that everyone finds oppressive and hates?" so quickly.
Or maybe everyone is overreacting, like they always do.
These forums can be exhausting to read sometimes. I just want a place where I can go and talk about a game I like. Why is it always this polarizing debate about how cards are ruining the experience for everyone else?
This isn’t supposed to come off as mean, but you were playing the deck when it was bad. So everyone playing it now is just a result of it, well, not being bad anymore.
A multitude of things resulted in the deck now being good.
1. Refreshing spring water is broken. The deck has hit a critical mass of card draw.
2. As for deck of lunacy, a LOT of terrible expensive spells rotated. Deck of lunacy was massively buffed by this rotation.
3. Finally, with a new year came a new rotation, obviously. The decks of the previous meta no longer exist, decks that destroyed spell mage.
So you have a combination of many things that pushed spell mage up to the top. The deck is very consistent, does not need lunacy to win, and is even more absurd if you get an early lunacy.
Even if lunacy gets nerfed to “unplayability,” I still think spell mage is tier 1. It’s just an insane deck even without it.
That is the real problem, I don't know how a card like Refreshing Spring Water passed quality control. Wait, quality control? BUAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Very reasonable as well. Imagine that, you guys are not blizz devs and are already balancing the game with solutions in less than a week... frustrating for sure, it just shows how complacent most of the player base is.

Thanks,

Agreed... no matter what you do, attack order will make you lose a 1.3 % loss game... 4 turns with 2 pairs and not find a triple...
