Running a game shouldn't require you to open the launcher(Steam never does this), not to mention having to close ads to launch the game again.
I think it represents their priority quite accurately.
Just what you can expect from players fixated on winning + company fixated on profit. They make each other happy by increasing sales with pack purchases and boosting win rate with broken cards.
Yes, a lot of people seem to forget or misunderstand the purpose of playing which is to enjoy the game itself, win or lose. I don't hate free wins because quests are done quicker but I don't love them either because I didn't really get to play the game. Needless to say I dislike aggro the most for its ego-driven intention to claim victory with the least amount of interactions possible. You end the game, there is no game.
"If something is fun, don’t you want it to last? I feel like the approach of « I just want to rank faster » is treating HS (a game) like a job where you need to be productive."
Exactly. They just want to rank up fast and feel good about it. That's their definition of fun. What can do that as many times as possible? Short games.
Aggro is my fun so in essence I hate facing Control decks because the games take too long I want to rank fast any game that goes above 6 minutes is not fun for me. I also like to play wide boards hence my preference for Flood Paladin.
Do you genuinely find aggro fun, or just play it because you can rank up faster?

At last.. but "at least" might make more sense. We'll see.

Play your own deck in Wild. You will naturally stay out of Legend and have more fun with more variety.

It got banned along with Private Eye apparently due to connection issues these cards were causing.

I don't get how you can think it's important to try to win and play a deck like yogg mage. Those two don't fit together very well, do they?
Edit: You know what actually I think I get it. I too am a yogg enjoyer but I don't try to lose, if that's what you meant.

Who asked for this? We all know you are doing this for more profit. Trying to disguise it as a decision made for players is disgusting.

What do you enjoy doing the most in the game and why?
My answer would be RNG - such as playing Yogg and watching fireworks - because I like surprises.
