Guys please don't give me that :) I've been playing Miracle rogue since 2014, I'm obviously referring to the Miracle Rogue lists not the cancer tempo rogue with keleseth... Who can't win with that deck anyways? On my point, I've played over 80 games with the various lists, averaging 40% winrate, 24 games were against mage, 22 games against priest and 13 against warlock. I know that it's easy to just say "you just do many mistakes", but no. There are no mistakes you can make vs secret mage as miracle rogue or vs any aggro deck for that matter, except if you are a rank 25 main or something. So if anyone could actually give some constructive feedback or some list that he has noticed that seems particularly interesting that would be lovely

Hunterson posted a message on New Rogue Weapon - KingsbanePosted in: Card DiscussionI just can't wait to farm overhyped clowns that wield this crap.
You do realize that you invest weapon buff cards in this SINGLE COPY of a shuffled weapon right? You might get it back only after 5-9-15 turns later.
And sometimes you will be forced to spend buffs on heropower dagger, just to not throw the game right away, while sitting and waiting for this dagger.

Gnimsh76 posted a message on Seriously, this has gone too far.Posted in: General DiscussionI reached legend this month with a homebrew mage deck, facing the usual ladder issue. From rank 17 to legend, not once did I encounter a deck that wasnt taken directly from the meta snapshots of Tempostorm/Vicious Syndicate, from an active streamer or from the frontpage of this site. Not one single time. Amazing. We are talking more than a hundred games here, not a single original deck. Didnt even experience variations or innovation, at least not from what was played/drawn.
So, upon reaching legend I decided to try out a netdeck as an experiment. More than half of my opponents were playing tempo rogue or some off-shoot of it, (Zoo lock etc), so that was my pick. Totally copied from this site, i used the rogue saronite list which I had encountered most often.
27 games later, I simply couldnt stomach it anymore. My end result was 22 wins and 5 losses. 4 losses in the mirror, 1 loss to a Raza priest. Thats a 81% winrate right there. Thats on legend rank, without any practice beforehand, other than the knowledge I picked up during my climb. I dont even play rogue that often, so I wouldnt consider myself a great rogue player or anything.
The issue was, it was SO easy. It was practically a joke. I never lost a game where I had Keleseth on my starting hand, or if I was able to curve out. I see a lot of players around the forums defending these kind of decks, making comparisons to more broken decks like the old undertaker hunter etc. Cmon guys. Is this seriously what you want the game to be? I mean, there was practically no analytical thought process required for playing this, other than thinking about what options your opponents had on the curve, each turn. If they stumbled, you were almost guaranteed a win if you had the curve play.
Mind you, this is not a salt thread. Im not upset, Im merely baffled. Do people really find enjoyment in getting handed practically free wins? and if so, why? Theres no point in going for high legend ranks anyway, unless youre a streamer who has to make a living of the game. I mean, if you want to compete you have to dedicate tons of hours to even be qualified for the tourneys, unless youre a god tier player. And then, how can you even call yourself a competitive player when the deck practically plays itself? Isnt competitive play supposed to be difficult, making tough decisions etc? The thing is, its so much more satisfying reaching rank 5 or higher with an odd deck, or your own creation. Its like eating a restaurant steak compared to a Mcdonalds cheeseburger. But I guess some people would pick the cheeseburger hehe.
In case youre wondering why I went for legend, I didnt really set out to. Theres really no point. I just enjoyed my deck and got to rank 2 on a streak, then for the hell of it finished the climb. But why not challenge yourself? Youll learn stuff, youll become better. In the end that is important if you truly want to shoot for the stars. Just think about it. Meanwhile, Ill be over here brewing my next weird concoction.

I think you need to replace stonehills with tar creepers to empty your hand more easily.
