Mate this thread is not about Standard/Wild comparison. It is more like an advice to the newbies.
Yes, and your "advice to the newbies" is "don't spend money on this game because I don't like Standard".

Hi everyone, new to the thread. Are people talking about the difference between OP and non-interactive? It seems like OP means win rate is too high, but I don't think that's true of Quest Rogue across all ranks and match-ups. I think, based on draws and matchup, it either wins or loses with such inevitability and lack of interaction from opponent that it just doesn't feel right, which is still a valid reason for a nerf.

I was just ranting about this in a slightly different way. My take is that the incentives all revolve around winning, and that's a problem and why there's so much salt. But you're right too about ignoring loyalty and newbs. Need more creativity in game modes.

I think the problem runs deeper -- people are people and they suck, but it's more noticeable in this game. I've always thought this game is too based on winning and grinding. There's just no built-in incentive to play if you don't win. Ladder is an oppressive, grindy mood-killer. Dailies and brawls almost always demand that you win.
As fun as Un-Goro can be, I do get in ruts where I can't seem to win no matter what I do. It's making people mad everywhere, and this is what you start to see. If they can do for game modes what Un'Goro seems to have done for cards, it will do wonders. But if they continue to show little innovation in game modes I think they're headed for big long term trouble.
There's got to be some inventive way to play not based on winning a head-to-head matchup, it's just a salt factory.

Lots of salt makes people say funny things.

YES! I scream it every time it comes up. Though very trivial, it's by far the most non-sensical, bewildering decision they've ever made with this game. Take away the one emote sometimes used with true sincerity. I think they must truly want players to be as salty as possible.

I rope and play a defensive/stalling strategy the instant I get one BM. Can't help it. Every once in awhile I'll get a concede from a control deck that will likely beat me, but they won't spend the time. Those are the best. This might not be healthy.

Glad you appreciate us (42 y/o player here). Those things are why most of us won't really ever compete with you, but we still have our fun.

I have a nice simple solution for you. Don't. Play. Tavern Brawl.
They can't get feedback from here because it's all knee-jerk ranty posts from people who assume everyone agrees with them.
