But it is exactly the problem! In an aggro meta, control decks should be able to come in and control the speed of the game. Normally, priest, warrior, shaman and warlock (at least) would have the tools to fight off the likes of face hunter etc. But now, if you build a deck that does exactly that, and has a respectable 55-60% win rate against aggro, the fact that every now and then you absolutely lose to Warlock's Tickatus means that the overall win rate drops below 50%. And this is the fundamental problem that no amount of statistics on HSreplay will show. 

 Good point :) unfortunately, we have to play against face hunters (again)

Quote from LegendaryJohnny >>

When I play against Warlock with my Priest Tickatus is basically the only card destroying me.

 And when i play against shaman, DH, hunter as a warlock, basically every card is destroying me :) 
And the meta is all aggro(ish) now...so Tick is not a big problem IMO.

Would love to see a fun control meta with variety. Instead you get a rock-paper-scissors game with Aggro vs. Control Warlock (which is both Control and Combo). It baffles me how people only look at win% or how they do not see this card is single-handedly ruining other control decks from simply existing. 

 So, control decks cannot exits, because they have LITERALLY one bad matchup?

 Yup, one bad matchup means control has a 40% overall winrate. Priest is a dead class because it almost always loses to control warlock. Tickatus is likely to be nerfed in the next two weeks, Blizz put him on their watchlist.

 It's only relevant if you face warlocks in almost every games, which is not the case...

I would like to know what folks are seeing out there?

Are watchposts still playable?

Is Lunacy still good?

Has any new class/deck risen?

Is aggro alive?

Can anything stand up to paladin?

 I play control warlock, paladin feels easier too beat

Quote from D_Lord >>

It's funny how everyone is speculating on what will be good after nerfs and talking about how insane/limiting Tickatus is and nobody mentions that nerfing the Paladin weapon to a 1/2 (which is apparently going to happen and going to be the only nerf to Paladin aside from Pen Flinger, but Pen Flinger doesn't go face as much in Paladin as it does in Rogue anyway) is definitely not enough to put the class below 60%. Libram and Secret Paladin will still destroy so many decks and archetypes.

Also, Weapon Rogue has so many tools that obliterate Warlock. They will have to tech 2x Oozes (actually surprising that we don't see a lot more Oozes right now).

 My thoughts exactly, nobody cares about Paladin and It's 60%+ WR ...

don't forget to say devolving missles played by a mage... because that is what you are talking about i am sure

 Of course He/She does, since u can't see any shaman on the ladder rn 😆
