The growing vicious cycle in which players debate the state of Hearthstone to no end, seem to ignore for the most part on why such debates take place to begin with. It is ironically the reason they began playing: Hearthstone is the potential Magic the Gathering for mobile. The most featured hot topic is RNG with an increasingly aggressive playstyle as a close second. I'm confident the majority of players wish for less of both. If a more in-depth game where longer matches and more direct consequences for your actions were present, Hearthstone would most likely be praised by most.
As a long-standing player, I can clearly understand the frustration. Blizzard has developed the one step forward, two steps back habit. For every nice card that gives us glimmers of MTG control hope, there are many more that make that card unplayable. Blizzard cannot make up its mind. It is as if clings to the thought of a big minion / control card game, while constantly flooding the metas with aggro. If you are a Druid, do you see any incentive to craft the quest? You are outweighed by the number of aggressive decks. So I then ask: What's the point of "printing" control style cards?
Now, please keep in mind this is not some random "salt" post and I am not a Druid player facing these troubles. I only use the above as an example. It is clear, however, that Blizzard has chipped away at the idea of a control style game with each passing meta. Perhaps it is time to accept that Hearthstone will never be what most seem to want: A game that doesn't insult the player's intelligence. For now, seeing it for what it is may alleviate the irritation of what the game has become but the thirst will always be there. It is a wish that will keep permeating the discussions without being discussed. You want Hearthstone to be a clone of MTG and it never will be.
Looking forward to the day when Hearthstone becomes a simulator where I eat goat cheese in front of Japanese intern students while riding on a unicycle and trying to do a quick-time event!
