apparently people prefer a meta with a handful of viable decks instead one with dozens.. i wish to understand the reason

dont you think that a banning system could work in hearthstone and would solve most of our problems? It shouldnt be that complicated, i thought something like for each class you can, by default, ban, let's say, one legendary card and one epic (or just one legendary would be good enough i guess). And, on the other hand, for each of your decks, you could have an extra card in case one of your cards is banned.

That would allow sooo much more variability in the ladder... Like, just being able do ban Deathstalker Rexxar... Frost Lich Jaina... Kingsbane... Malfurion the Pestilent.....just a sigle card that ruins a fucking match and wins the game to who pull it ... people would actually have to think when building a deck, instead of netdecking and doing the same boring strategy over and over 

dont you guys think that something like this could be feasible? i think it would be amazing..

 i feel you bro. i too wish for something like that; however, it will affect the game entirely. too many aggro decks would pop up and it would be boring real fast. 

a ban system would have to be really comprehensive and allow for individual "rooms" where each room set its own rules and allowances. for example, a basic and common card only room.  Or a no legendary room. etc... that would be really cool and help balance the game and offer more flavors for people play. How about a no DK room?  Broad bans would work rather than single cards I think.

ahhh to dream is nice eh my friend?

Well , here's to dreaming!!

do you think that by just banning one legendary would result in a lot of aggro decks? I liked your 'rooms' ideas... sure dreaming is nice.. 

and thanks for disagreeing with me politely and actually debating with arguments... tried to raise this discussion in a thread and people just go "no, fuck you, you are wrong and a noob" or something like it... like fuck, im trying to raise a discussion on to how the game we all spend so much time on could be improved.. Its not possible that people woudnt enjoy a more diverse meta... this internet culture that people think that every discussion is a battle that somebody has to win is so sick..

anyways, i think that just banning all the dks would already make this game like 75% more fun

Not really, no.  Not on ladder.  It's simply not viable because what do you do?  You just ban all of, or most of, the bad matchups for the deck you're laddering with.

Bans work in Conquest formats because you *have* to use multiple decks and there's a tactical element to the ban because of that fact.

 but im not talking of banning an entire deck, just one brocken card would be enough... like, odd mage would still be viable without dk jaina.. deathrattle hunter would still be viable without dk rexar and so on... of course, for some combo decks or decks like kingsbane or baku, etc that would ruin the hole deck, but that would have to be figured out somehow...

and its a thing that you would not be able to know wich archetype you would be facing, like you choose to ban hagatha when you face a shaman. If your opponent doesnt use hagatha then nothing happens, but if he does, it is replaced by the reserve card that he chose (grumble, for example)

the thing is that its such a waste that we have hundreds of cards, dozens of legendaries that never see play because the meta lets no more than ten decks to be viable.. dont you think thats a problem, and that it could be solved somehow?

Just posted it on the salty thread but decided to bring here because I want to know your oppinion on that.

Thing is that blizzard should really nerf those fucking op cards.. it's so boring because drafting them is insta win if on the opposite side the other player doesn't have or draw a insta win card.. It would be easy, there are hundreds af cards, just nerfing 10, or 20... like dk rexar or dk jaina.. kingsbane, hidronox.. baku and keleseth  (somehow)... Or even better, a banning system, that seems like a possible solution.. The game has so many cards and possibilites and its wasted because the meta allows just a few decks to be viable mainly because of a few extremely op cards, imo

Finding non conventional deks on the ladder, and fighting them with a non conventional deck is so much fun.. I just lost a mach against a quest shaman, playing discolock, and it was infinitely more enjoyable than losing to yet another spell hunter..

I know that most cards not played on standard are pretty much used in arena and I love arena because of this, but it's still not the same thing as being able to build an entire deck the way you want and feel that you still have a chance to win.

damn those deathrattle hunters are so fucking annoying... currently i'm finding them more cancerous than braindead aggros or OTKs, is it just me? just out of curiosity wich decks are currently a good matchuo against deathrattle hunter?

I like my Big Spell Mage a lot, and Quest Priest is doing a good job for me as well. Odd Warrior also has a chance, granted you're running 2 Owls. I play Control Decks only, and these are my best bets to beat them. DK Rexxar on curve makes every matchup extremely difficult for me, though.

 yes, the DK is such a broken card... i cant wait for this shit to rotate out, along with Keleseth, DK Jaina, Gouldan and pretty much everything from KaC... it's the exact opposite of fun to play against a card that, if played on curve, is a insta win for the opponent

rip control

this card was a mistake.

 the exact same thing just happened to me, also playing odd warrior... damn these mecha cthun decks are the  stupidest thing ever

Quote from Milkyy >>

Druid seriously fucking needs a nerf soon, legit 30 armor in one turn. Has perfect board control against aggro, the best card in the game (UI) and can jump 5 mana ahead while containing the opponents board. Druid beats both control and aggro, it's seriously so fucking bullshit.

 it really fucking annoying.. the only occasion i could beat one was when the dude played really badly and i managed to pull a perfect drawing curve... otherwise its nearly impossible no matter if youre aggro or control
