Wild is not harder, the fact is that the matchups are waaaaay more polarized. You have to be lucky to not face your counters during your climb or you will start losing a lot.
I played secret hunter to 5 in wild, it was pretty easy, but then the real cancer starts with those big priests and uber druids. I swapped to kingsbane and suddenly began to encounter hyperaggro decks xD
All in all the climb to rank 5 is much easier but 5 to 1 is full of powerful synergistic decks.

I don't think that Zerek is that horrible, with some more synergy he could be playable. Wild has Nzoth too...
In my opinion you shouldn't build a deck around him but use him as an high priority treat that if it's left unchecked can snowball to victory. More like a value card than a win condition by itself.
I'm having the most fun and successful hearthstone experience ever with this expansion. I don't really care about what other people complain about even though sometimes they really get on my nerves xD
It's just how life works, there's nothing that Blizzard can do to make everyone happy and some people will never get past this simple process.

P.S. I will forever hate shudderwock shaman. FOREVER. ^^
I'm 46-16 with this deck. Easiest rank 5 of my life and it is one of the most fun decks I've ever played.
Just wanted to say tank you for this beautiful masterpiece. I hope your deck gets more upvotes, but on the other hand I don't want this to get spammed on ladder xD I'm starting to get jealous hahahah
Well if people are on a budget its difficult to try new things. I won't craft a thing for the next two weeks. I got legend with an old deck + 1 new card and I'm okay with that...
People bitching because the meta is too balanced and they need a broken deck to ladder faster
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This community amazes me every time... Some people will really complain about everything. If people are so upset with every meta why don't just leave the game? You are just ruining your life and our game experience spamming your copypasted decks everywhere.
Nothing is wrong with it. The deck is very solid. I think the issue is that too many players have tunnel vision when it comes to deciding what deck(s) to play. Even Shaman seems to have been set aside for a deck that is either newer, something that has been showcased as doing well in a tournament (even if there were decks not showcased that do just as well), or a deck that was showcased as doing well by a streamer.
People tend to forget that there aren't only one tier 1/2 decks out there. *Shrugs*
I think you are right when you say that maybe the deck wasn't showcased that much. Now that I think about it I rarely see the "famous" streamers play the deck. If this is the case it really says a lot about the state of the game.
But to all the people that say that people prefer newer decks to try things out I think it's not the case:
1)A lot of people play the same old decks with 2-3 max new cards
2) The deck was never popular, not now, not in witchwood. I can count on the fingers of one hand how many times I've encountered the deck in the last four months.
As I already explained in points 1) and 2) those are not the reasons why it is not played, apparently.
Moreover the deck doesn't seem so boring to me, at least not more boring than the various midrange/aggro decks that are overplayed.
In my experience the majority of players doesn't care about fun decks, all they care is about winrate and the deck has had a decent winrate for quite some time now.

I feel the game is slower now... Maybe just my imagination

Nice to see that some people actually play the deck, but still I don't find those people on ladder xD
I played around with the deck (at rank 5) but I don't have the sea giants and kalimos... They seem pretty important to me :/

It would obviously be great.
But Blizzard will obviously never implement this. They are one of the greediest companies around lol

Very nice deck, having lots of fun casually climbing in wild since I already got legend in standard.
My most problematic matchup so far has been big priest, almost unwinnable :/ This shit is really broken in wild lul

I think the thread will be closed soon... This is getting worse and worse xD
There's no point in going further than this.
