It sucks in this current meta. I was playing Taunt Druid almost exclusively in Witchwood. Then when this new expac started and the meta started to form it just doesn't fair well. Against the aggro it's hard to get out enough taunts to slow/stop them.
Last I heard it was "summer beta". We are still in summer so there you go. But as others have said Blizzard is notoriously slow at development and they've lost several team members to Brode's new company.
I think RNG is the biggest culprit. I'll use an example. Yesterday I was playing this weeks tavern brawl. I was using mage and my opponent was using mage. I had 2 fireballs in my hand and 3 minions on the board. My opponent had burned all his cards and had 1 small 1/1 on board and 19 health while I had 4 health. I had lethal next turn as long as he didn't pull a spell like a frostbolt or another fireball.
Well Hearthstone in it's infinite RNG decided to go ONE step further! He played this card (can't remember the name, think it's from the new set) where it randomly summons 3 minions on board (I think their mana cost was capped at like 3 or 4 or something too). Anyways what does he get? A flametongue totem RIGHT next to the 1/1 he had on board to have EXACT lethal!!!! IF the three minions spawned in ANY other order, I win but RNG raped me.
I laughed cause it was only a stupid Tavern brawl match so I just had to play one more match to finish it for the week. But that is the TYPE of situation that causes peoples blood to boil.
I've been playing an Alliance Pally (currently lvl 115) Horde Rogue (lvl 114) and also leveling a Warlock on another server (lvl 91) since BFA came out. I've finished one whole zone for each of the two high levels (minus the dungeon for the Rogue which I'll probably kick out tonight) and I can say I'm enjoying the Alliance zone and quests MUCH better so far! I've mostly been a Horde player my WoW days on and off since launch.
Came back to WoW after years away only this past March so only tasted some of that content of Legion. So far in BFA not liking that they have the followers again like at the class hall. Too many followers at too many locations. IF you did everything with followers of a type you'd be doing your base from WoD, class hall and now the War effort for BFA (sorry if I get the exact names messed up). That's just TOO much in TOO many different areas. They REALLY need to consolidate if they don't turn off the previous expansions followers stuff.
I'm an alt-o-holic. So it sucks for me that they put the unlocking of races behind a litany of quests. I wanna just go and make a Void Elf already! They look super sweet! Also hate the no flying in more recent expansions (again locked behind unlocks, lame). I'm also a pvper not a raider. So I haven't really pvp'd since back in the Lich King days so not sure how that's going to work out yet. Hope it's better than it was back then. Arena gear totally beat out just BG gear and some of us just don't have the ability to go in groups (whether time or friends to do arenas with). BG gear should be on equal footing as arena just take longer to get maybe since it's solo-able.
Graphically the game has improved drastically over the original game. The new alliance zones again are gorgeous and the characters are very detailed. Yes it's not the prettiest game out there, not even close, but looks WAY better than it used to so kudos there. Again Alliance zones so far better than the Horde zones.
Overall I'm having a blast right now with the expansion. We'll see if that sticks around once I hit 120 on these toons though and complete all the zones quests.
I don't use it on chrome but on Firefox I've been having the problem of the banner add being too big at the top of the screen if you don't have the view in full screen mode. So the banner ad covers over like the links to go to the different sections of the forums and sometimes top 1 or 2 posts.
Usually four or five, but on rare occasions twenty or more. The truth is I usually spend much more time here on Hearthpwn than actually playing the game. :P
It depends but usually on work days only about 6-7 and that's it. On weekends I play even less a lotta times cause I'm doing other things like playing WoW or another game or watching tv or movies or going out.
I'm not having much fun with it to be honest. Mecha'thun was fun to try for first couple days as well as some mechs but now it's just turned into an aggro fest.

Hunter...any deck.

Look at the amount of games played on all of them though. None have more than 70 games played. VERY deceiving Blizzard!

For me it's priests and brain dead aggro decks.

Yes it is! I've played it a little bit this month and have a 71% winrate so far with it!

Yeah I have ZERO interest in puzzle labs. Will probably just use the cheat article off here to burn through it really quick just to get the card back.
