Done

It would've been buried by now if not for 'insert popular streamer' title.

The meta wont change in just one day... Calm the fuck down

It was fun while it lasted, now it's back good old Shamanstone. Facing 3 Morgls for every 2 jade druids at R10

No pirate tag, overlaps with better 3-drops, too situational, dead draw later on.

Oh, of course you did, fucking liar

Gods, I need to rage at the moment, after another set of games with an 80% loss rate...

I hate everyone and everything connected to this misanthropic, evil parody of a past-time.
I hate all players who lacks the common decency to at least reply to a greeting from an opponent. You are playing against another human, you spoiled brats, treat them as such at least a bit.
I hate all the smug Catamites who's first emote is to say "well played" after curb-stomping you beyond belief.
I hate the barely simian morons who emote a threat when you have already lost and just said "well played".
I hate that some players seem to have decks specifically tailored against me, because I do not know enough to tailor my tactics against them.
I hate, despise and loathe any and all who even accepts the idea of bots being ok. It's only ok if you think other players are worth zero respect, you self-centred, thoughtless, sociopathic lazy ingrates.
I hate the childish complaints about unbalanced decks or overpowered meta, and I hate the unbalanced decks and the overpowered meta.
I hate the entirety of the Internet which spawned this morass of polypathological, non-cohesive mishmashes of contra-intuitive fallacies.

And I hate myself, when I find myself saying "fuck off!" at a screen, but directed at a person who did nothing worse than beat me in a game, fair and square. There is no excuse for that, even if they can't hear me.


But most of all, in a simmering, low-key way, I hate those smug people who claim it's just a matter of training to get better.
It is not. Nor is it a matter of luck, or even just of natural talent.

The one thing almost no one of these self-righteous collections of unclean phospholipid-sacks full of contaminated water seem to understand is that all skilled learning have one critical component that this game lacks the capacity for- feedback.

Learning from your mistakes require that someone is willing to tell you what they were and why, and you cannot get that from a screen telling you "you lost". And you cannot get it from watching others play. It require interaction with people, not just opponents.

If you do not know what is wrong with a particular move, you will not know WHEN it is wrong. Especially when the skill element often is such a subtle part of the whole and only comes into play when the RNG happens to make for balanced plays, roughly equal draws and such. 

Well learning is by doing. You get better at this game by knowing the cards, having a solid deck, watching pro streamers and then trying yourself.

 That's it! Your on my little list... (For the uncultured, cross reference Gilbert and Sullivan)

Seriously though, I know what you and the other "smug people" ( as I called the group) are referring to and in some ways you are, of course, correct. But take it from someone who has some experience (about 20 years, all told) with teaching, learning, thinking and the related psychology; you are also very wrong.

That advice is simply not correct, and outright dangerous, until you have reached a certain point in your understanding. Before that it is just as likely to destroy you as help you learn. The reason is that without a correct foundation of understanding you do not know what you are supposed to watch for, what you need to know about the cards or what is a solid deck. But you will still make connections, without any guarantee they are relevant or correct.
Due to this fact, you are actually more likely* to entrench faulty understanding and become a worse player over time if there is no one to actively correct your faulty thinking. All self-learning is by association and pattern study, but our brains cannot recognize it's own faulty thinking. (*Since there are more way to be wrong than to be right)

Anyone with fingers and out of a job can be the creme de la creme of this lame ass casino.

Oh, i'm dying. Thanks for lighting my mood.

Majority of Maly locks run Big Game Hunter and even 2, what's your substitute?

It is only viable in a control warrior deck as your last insurance deep into fatigue. Other then that, a gimmick card for your dragon decks but there are way more useful heavy lifters.

I always advise to not disenchant a golden legendary. Odds of getting one are ~0.07%. And you never know if it becomes viable in foreseeable future. Not to mention how mesmerizing it looks.
