It's not even that the deck is that powerful. I have a good win rate against it with a few decks. It's just that it's such a stupid and mindless concept that should never have existed in the first place. Pure gambling bullshit. A meme deck (lets be honest, that's exactly what it is) should never have anything approaching a 50% winrate. Checking my stats here I faced big priest in 30% of games from 5-legend. That's just disgusting.

 

 

 Just cause you think a deck is stupid doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. I think mill decks are for degenerates but oh well, they're not going anywhere. Also, a lot of "meme decks" have a good winrate, not sure if you're aware of that. That Togwaggle Druid deck is in my opinion stupid, has a dumb win condition and is completely unfun to play against, and it does way better than Big Priest against most decks, but I honestly couldn't care, it's just another deck.

This game is so full of shit I am finally convinced to uninstall. I started the day Rank 1 2 stars, finish the day and my HS career on R3 2*. I lost because my opponent has an answer to every play I make, every turn. Every. Single. Game. I switch up my decks between Even lock, Miracle rogue (with and without Gadgetzan) taunt druid, odd paladin, all decks which I got plenty of experience on. No matter which one I choose I face counters or ridiculous RNG plays.

Example: playing vs Odd Paladin, I control board well, only use swipes when he has full board of silver hands to prevent Level up plays, drew no ramp but whatever.. bad luck happens. But nope.. He rips two tarims from stonehill defender and my board of sleepy dragons and lich king goes to 3/3. Twice. Fuck you.

Other example playing miracle rogue: Get my thug on an empty board with a 6/6 VC, he gets 2 glacial shard topdecks which keep my thug in place, silences my VC, still keep thug up and use weapon so thug is 7/7, draw 2 spider ambushes at start of turn, topdeck Volcano. Again, fuck off.

BTW never play turn 3 mountain giant vs any hunter because guess what, deadly shot starts in their hand vs every warlock.. they don't even need to put the spell in their deck it magically appears there in every warlock game. Seriously try it, play any MG vs hunter turn 3 or 4 and watch the deadly shot. I played 4 games today it happened every time.

 Keep in mind that the same people that beat you probably also have shit luck most of the time. It took me like 200 games from rank 5 to legend, and I'm far from a bad player.

Shitty pack, again, golden or not... One legendary in 58 packs so far, and this goes on...

 I feel bad for you guys, I was also pretty unlucky when I started playing, but I got 5 legendaries in the last 2 weeks. Not even bad ones, pretty good stuff.

Yes. Casual and brawl are my gamemodes of choice. I don't know why people don't like them, but I like the rng brawls as the most stupid shit can happen. Randomonium and the one where random spells play when you play a minion are my favorites.

As a player who got into Legend for the first time with it about 10 days ago, most of you have no idea what you're talking, which is probably because most of you haven't played it. 70% of the time you wont even draw Barnes, so you rely on removal and hoping to highroll Y'Shaarj with Shadow Essence. Aggro destroys you at least half of the time because of crap drawing, especially Tempo Mage, Kingsbane destroys you, combo decks destroy you, Highlander Mage/Warlock/Priest can mess you up with Polymorph/Kazakus really easily, Genn Shaman was every second matchup for me between rank 1 and 3 and I had about 60% winrate against them (not bad, but far from overpowered) generally my winrate was around 55% and it took me a long time to hit Legend. You guys either play really bad, or play midrange/control decks that absolutely suck against Big Priest. Of course sometime Barnes is going to pull out Y'Shaarj and you instantly lose, opponents did that to me in mirror matches but I wasn't salty because I got unlucky a few times. Unlike Naga giant decks, most of the time with Big Priest you won't be able to do anything game crushing at least until turn 5-6, which in my opinion gives the opponent enough time to think about his plays.

In fact, you have pointed out the problem. People,  do not want to lose because of the RNG. I don't want concede because you have Barnes on turn 4. When I am playing Hearthstone I want fair games and I don't want to see a card that forced me to concede. So, let's nerf it. 

 Well tough luck, I get killed by a top deck Pyroblast and you don't see me cry. I get your point, I really do, but when you play Big Priest and you draw bad, a lot of Control matchups are NOT in your favor. The late game requires basic game knowledge, turn setups and skill just like any other deck. Also, I really don't get why you people hate Barnes so much, the chances that he wins you the game just because you have him on turn 4 are very slim. Don't concede when you see Barnes, because the chances that your opponent pulls Y'Shaarj and has ressurection spells in his hand are even more slim. You make the deck seem way more overpowered than it is, it is powerful, but with many flaws.

Actually fuck hunter in general, braindead secret playing fucks. Play anything just to upgrade that stupid spellstone card.

Will baku decks in general fuck off out of casual? Nobody gives a shit about your aggro trash, I just insta concede when I hear that stupid fucking opening line.

I swear, mill decks are the most unfun, uninteractive, degenerate shit that exists.

There is a special place in hell for people who play mill decks.

Sincerely, fuck you all.

Ok seriously, what the fuck is with these standard meta decks in wild casual? Odd paladin with 1 wild card? Even paladin with no cards that are WILD? Fucking spiteful druid?

To be fair, I'm guilty of occasionally playing meta decks in casual, but that is an EXTREME rarity (sometimes I play the old control warlock with N'Zoth and a few other older cards), but that is in the hopes of playing against other control decks which makes the matches long and FUN. There is nothing fun about expecting mid-range, Reno and control decks and getting degenerate paladin trash. 

I actually got an opponent that played pickpocket rogue and I felt BAD that I beat him with a meta deck, so I added him and had a few fun matches afterwards. Do you meta retards have absolutely no shame in what you're doing?

I hate aggro decks from the bottom of my soul.

Peace.

Can someone help me out? I'm currently at rank 13, it's my first time playing this deck in hopes of reaching legend, I can't seem to get a winrate higher than 50% but I have reached rank 3 before with my own priest deck (which is now in wild). I have the same cards except for Zola, if someone could write a guide or send me a private message it would mean a lot, thanks.

I disagree with you because most OTK decks require you to draw 80% of your deck until you get what you want, BUT, I do personally hate quest mage and this new shaman deck. It's stupidly overpowered and quest mage usually pulls out tons of freezes and ice blocks from glyphs and tomes, so screw both of these decks. Personally, I'd still rather play against OTK decks than aggro, because I have played some combo decks and I can still respect my opponent for his efforts and interactions rather than just going face and ending the un-fun game at turn 4.

I sincerely wish the worst for quest mage players, especially now that wild is infested with them. Disenchanted all of my ladder decks for both standard and wild because it's not even fun to play these try hard decks and my hate for people because of a stupid card game is reaching unhealthy levels, seriously need a break from this shit.
