I like the meta mainly because ( btw im a tier 2 player right now) I try new decks and they work like magic and sometimes they don't and against lets say tempo rogue which means we don't have a rock, paper, scissors meta which is the best any deck can beat any deck even if they are not favorable its not impossible like how it was before.

astreal rift is cheaper and lets you play giants faster

bugged shuderwock wont cast the battlecry

It's old news that Control Shaman can bend over the bomb warrior, which is why it enjoys the popularity it does.

However, you will lose 99/100 to the Jepetto Hunter, and as more people play ultra control, you'll see a rise in various combo decks that enjoy a crushing win rate against the slow control archetype.

And then you'll see aggro rise to combat the combo.

And then you'll see control rise to combat the aggro.

And then . . . . get the point?

That's why metas don't stabilize unless bad nerfing decisions render the amount of viable decks too small to keep up this circular model, and then you get what we got last month, where nothing changed because there were a very select few decks that had a chance against each other.  The meta that's solved is the meta that's dead.

 I completely agree with you but heckle bot counters jeppeto pretty damn hard... The year of the raven was the best year for combo decks because there was no tech card for it but in this expansion we got 2, so i really doubt combo gets out of hand but for now I have a pretty solid winrate with control shaman. The trick to my deck that took it over the top against bomb warrior and agro decks was the two Applebaums and omega mind which is insane with hagathas scheme. It is basically a reno that clears everything and since you have to wait until turn 10 to play it you usually draw it. I know you probably think I should be dead by then against any agro deck but that is what witches brew , zilliax and the applebaums are for. I dont have a a fixed win condition I just survive until the other player runs out of stuff.

AND I LOVE IT. I am a control player and a slow meta is the best. I am playing a control shaman right now and I am 100% against any agro deck from zoo too token druid undefeated in like 30 games against them and 50% against bomb druid which I actually dont encounter as much. Thoughts on the new slow meta? btw I am in rank 2 player been in legend rank multiple times played since January 2016

 Nobody cares dude, u want attention? Ur rank is shit anyway, stop it. Meta is super slow and trash right now, only for kids without job or responsability in their lives.

 so much hate... my dude you created your account to hate on the expansion the game and for some reason me. How about you go eat a cube of sugar sweeten yourself, find a hobby instead of wasting your time hating on everything. Go buy a smile they are free. 

I can send you my decklist if you want if you see to much agro play this deck. I have been flying from rank 6 to 2 in a matter of 2 days.

thank you, I can send you the decklist and try it for yourself.

Yeah I have been playing control shaman for a good like 10-20 games and it does not cast its battlcry

There might be something I am doing wrong but when I cast a horror by Hagatha the battlecry of the horror does not cast. For example, if I played the horror and It cast rain of toads shuderwock does not cast it. I get a new horror back for hagathas battlecry but the horrors battlecry does not cast. Is it a bug or am I wrong?

would not add seaforium bomber. I would not play gore howl , i think supercollider is better because it is not as slow and gorehowl is not worth it since you have so much single target removal( add more target removal). This deck, in my opinion, will be good because warrior can survive very long and just let the value boom mad genius gives you and the bombs be your win condition. Tempo is not the way to go because if you are tempo you will either kill him before he gets the bombs or kill you before he gets the bombs.

For overrated cards, I’d put the new Togwaggle honestly. I don’t really see how this card is all THAT broken.

For underrated, I would put most of the new Thief Rogue cards, the deck is looking pretty strong rn if there is not much aggro in the meta.

 

 I will explain to you how it is so good. The card is in a class where 3 mana spells can be cheated out pretty easily. Second the spells that you choose are crazy especially if you are talking about zereks crown the fact that on turn 7 you can play a 5/6 and two legendaries just shows how crazy this card is. Third lackeys are pretty damn good in rogue because they are just one mana that can generate tempo or activate combos. Fourth the treasure from toggwagle can be replayed by Tess greymane just like she could cast lich king cards, and that my boy is why togg is just such a good card.

I think it will work. I have been playing since January 2016 pretty long time, I am a legend rank player and this archetype really gets me hyped up. The most formidable and at the same time winless control deck is Big spell mage, it had so many AOEs and single target removal that it felt like there was no way anyone was going to beat you but the problem was that deck had basically no win condition. It could stay alive forever but eventually, you would run out of board clears and loose because it had no win condition. In Bomb warrior just run upgrade and the two weapons and you can put up to 8 bombs in the other player's deck. Just play like a control warrior like very control and just add the bomb package ( the two weapons, the 3/3 that put a bomb and boom himself) and just stall the game until you outvalue him with dr boom mad genius or the bombs will get him. Few classes can get their health higher than 30 so 12 bombs by the time you hit fatigue you will have done 60 damage... If he is till alive then fatigue will get him while you run armor cards, taunts and board clear.

I am a legend player been playing for over 3 years ( league of explorers) and love to talk about new cards and helping new players not make the same mistakes I did.
