    I really do not mind some light RNG, but hey, when games are dictated by a single heavy RNG swing that is NO fun; I started playing since the beginning, nowadays I only do dailies. Losing against only luck/RNG and not by an inch of skill is unfun and frustrating.

    Professor Slate 1 star? He isn't limited to only a spell damage hunter. Professor Slate + 1 Rapid Fire is literally a 5 mana 3/4 destroy 2 minions of your choice. Just pop him and 2 rapid fires in any hunter deck...

     

     Nah. This seems not fitting for any hunter deck, not worth. Sorry pal, mr Ben is spot on.

    I was waiting for your review, not disappointed.  Secret passage is nuts, I think it will be nerfed in just a few weeks from expansion's day 1.

    How does it feel. The way of the mindless? I would be deeply ashamed of myself, let alone publicly announce it reaching legend with demon hunter.

     Oh wow, tell me enlightened one which deep and difficult to pilot HS deck should I use to not feel ashamed of it.

    I only play one day, reach diamond 5 and that's enough Heartstone for me for the whole month. Then I only do dailies. Nobody said "I'm struck in silver/gold" around here. I repeat, game is shallow, not complex and RNGfiesta and anyone can reach legend if playing many games. Thijs, Kolento and the others only have much time at their disposal to play the game, that's it.

    People complaining about RNG have no idea. The most broken busted decks in this meta have absolutely no RNG. They are so busted because they are consistent. DH basically kills you by turn 5/6 guaranteed every game. Sure there is some RNG because of bad draws. Ultimately though the best decks, being tempo DH (which is absolutely the best deck right now, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, all the latest VS data confirms it's the best in legend - look out for the next meta report), hunter and enrage warrior have very little RNG. Hunter has a discover effect and sky raider gives a random pirate. there are lackeys though of course in enrage warrior. Other than that though very little RNG. Priest is a weak class and has lots of RNG.

    Imagine you play every game and DH just gets its cards, same game plan, and kills you on turn 6 every single game. DH is so consistent it basically does just that. That's a boring game no one would play (which is kind of why I am surprised they didn't do anything about it).

     

     Who cares about losing to DH, I never hated losing against ANY "busted deck" in any time of my HS long run since open Beta. NEVER. But losing a game ONLY due to a RNG fiesta card like Yogg, YES. THAT MAKES ME MAD AND MAKES ME STOP PLAYING THIS GAME.

     Except dragon queen really isn't that great of a card. Half the time I can't play it because It would mean death, or I am playing it just in the hopes of getting lucky and getting a taunt. I'm not even sure it should be in any highlander deck. Out of 30-40 games with Highlander hunter I've used it exactly once where it had me win. I took it out because it's a horrible card. People just think it's good because when they lose to it stands out how unfair the loss feels then they get into a confirmation bias loop. And often when they lose to it it's because they're playing a slow unreasonable greedy deck.

    ut the fact is that most people don't even take the time to figure out why certain builds of decks are more powerful, I say probably 70% of people have no idea how to adjust their deck for the meta, A base skill for being a player that no one even uses. also how certain plays are more consistent, or when to hold clear or use it or when to trade or when to tempo instead of using clear.  Then there's hand reading play reading and simply calculating the odds of waiting for an out vs. playing for a current out based on the other deck. Or the fact that you play differently vs. almost every different deck. For example with warrior some decks you trade a lot, some you mostly go face. 

    Sadly none of these skills can really be learned by people who believe in RNGesus because instead of of believing in themselves and the fact that they could do better, and looking for oppurtunities to gain those skills they pray to the RNG gods, and when the RNG gods aren't on their side they go and complain about those gods on this forum, When in fact the correct prayer would be to have more clarity, better memory and better skill, instead they pray or complain about luck. 

     

     

    It doesn't have to do with whether or not she is a "good" card (and you're wrong - she's an incredible card).

    The issue, and the entire premise of my post, is the power level of the variance.

     The OP even states that, saying "OK sometimes it doesnt work well, sometimes it turns games around".

    THIS

    IS

    BAD

    FOR

    THE

    GAME

    Excuseme, do you have time to talk about our lord and savior Yogg Saron?

     Yogg ( and its offspring, box and Reno hero power ) was actually the thing that killed this game for me.
