    Better mention which ones are you playing, most people who complain about aggro never tell which deck they are playing..
     
     Goodness me. I don't think you appear to be reading my actual posts. I gave an extensive list. 
    Here it is again, from my earlier post:
    "the ones I've been playing lately have been : Stegadin, Beast Hunter, Burn Mage, Freeze mage, Anti-Secret Crab Paladin, Discardlock, Stall-Priest, Djinnless Priest, Silence Priest. Lol-Rogue."
    So.... that happened...

    I doubt anyone here actually works at Blizzard and would be likely to answer this for you - and even if they did work there, they still wouldnt likely be allowed to offer time estimates on this sort of thing.

    You could send a direct communique to Blizzard to ask - doubt they would tell you though. :-)

    posted a message on Innkeeper Question.

    I think he means (probably) that the card count doesnt pick up golden versions of the card (when it comes to auto-dusting, etc).
    Which is the way it is supposed to work, since most people wouldn't normally choose to dust the non-golden cards automatically. 

    Better to just go through and do them manually - a ball ache, but the potential mis-dusts would be worse.

    Quote from JohnX1133 >>

    The reason people hate playing against quest rogue is that it is a high roll deck and it is not interactive. If you hate losing to quest rogue, play aggro. 

    I don't think it is overpowered. People are not used to a new deck archetype so quest rogue had inflated win rate in the first month of Un'goro. Once you get it, it's a straightforward game. I played freeze mage 50% of the time above rank 4 last month and I had a positive win rate against quest rogue. And we've seen taunt warrior beating quest rogue in tournaments although it is not favored. 

     Freeze Mage is about as hard counter to Wuest Rogue as they come. 
    But that's exactly the problem. 
    Quest Rogue forces the whole meta into a play me or tech specifically against me style of thing - exactly the same way that Pirate Warrior did last expansion. Blizzard have shown time and again that they are happy to allow this sort of thing to happen.
    As stated before, the problem with Quest Rogue isn't it's win rate. It's the fact that it provides literally zero interactivity with the opponent. You might as well toss a coin at the start and the loser concede. It's all very well being able to beat the deck now and then, but when every game against it is simply playing "beat the clock" against a computer AI-styled opponent, then it feels pointless and aggravating. Even winning against this deck is dull and irksome at best.

    Posting how amazing you consider yourself to have been in a situation that caused you such positive feeling in a thread designed to encapsulate all that is harrowing and soul-destroying about the game for those miserable few who suffer these torments is a sure-fast way to reap disgusted rebuttal in the least, outright outrage in the otherwise.
    You would do well to put the more enjoyable and pleasant experiences in the thread designed to that effect, rather than effectively coming across as an under-bridge-dwelling antagonist at best...

     Excuse me, did I say anything wrong to that guy that I need your passive "kindness" ("*irritated retort*")?
     
     What's wrong with kindness? (passive or otherwise)
    I was on your side, but... meh...! *shrugs*

    Quote from MvonTzeskagrad >>

    So, you are playing Jade druid pretending that you deserve the oxygen you breathe jsut because you added Earthen Scales to replace Living Roots?

    You are disgusting. And the fact you had a perfect turn, got into turn 10 by turn 6 and had 5/5 golems the turn right after that only makes you worse.

     I'm currently having an occasionally amusing time trying to run a Quest Jade Druid deck. It sucks - like, really hard - but for the first time in months playing something with jades feels vaguely more refreshing than seeing the Pirate Warriors and Quest Rogues cancering up the meta as usual...

    It's somewhat irritating when yuo're playing a deck idea that you came up with, you win loads with it, then suddenly you start seeing other start copying it almost card for card (and losing, because they obviously dont know how to play it in the first place).

    And then all of a sudden, it becomes THE new net deck. It's so frustrating, because it's like some of the freshness and originality that you put into it has been stripped away and stolen.

    Sure it happens a lot, but it's always that little bit grating. I don't like chucking the deck away, though. Instead I see if I can modify it somehow to move it away from the more mainstream version while still being viable and winnable.

    Well it's not cancer anymore, so now it's cool to like again!

     Shaman is ALWAYS cancer. 
    Even when it loses.

    Which deck do you play? If you see so many of the same deck why not change to a counter?

     

    Amazing deck idea.. 

     Because then you are accepting a limitation that you can only ever play aggro or counter-aggro.
    This in turn is then accepting that there are only 2 decks worth playing. So we get to the outcome that if this is the case, then the first deck is obviously too strong, since you have to eaither play it or tech against it. 
    A good comparison to consider is what other decks (if any) you are being forced to counter against. If there are no more than one or two, then it is evidence that there is a problem there.
     There are pleny of decks that are viable and can fight against aggro, you are avoiding the question though, which total greed deck are you playing? Ramp druid? Control priest? Control warrior?
    Quest deck?
     all those decks you mentioned SHOULD be viable ant not instantly die against aggro, and they would be if blizzard just nerfed the charge mechanic.
     So? What is op complaining about?
     I did explain it in the post, to be fair... >_>

    posted a message on Discarded and Forgotten Mechanics
    Quote from Zence >>

    Blizz always introduces a new mechanic with each expansion. The ones that stick are the ones that you can make a ton of stuff out of without limiting design space (Inspire)

    But we haven't seen any 50% chance to... from GVG

    Joust from TGT

    Tri Class cards from MSG

    While I wish some things were reconsidered this is perfectly normal. Prepare to lose Adapt next expansion as it is most likely an Un'Goro exclusive.

     This is the point I was making :-)
    We have seen loads of Deathrattles and battlecries and Charges, etc. 
    So where are all the other mechanics that are more fun and interactive than these to play / use?
    Wild isn't much of an argument, because it doesn't give any reason why there aren't any of these mechanics being kept in standard - and noplayer worth his salt would venture into Wild these days... hehe (Jokes)
