You would take 11 wins over 12 wins and a free run? (Since you don't have to cash the win in straight away...)

Namely: Pirate Warrior, Jade Druid, Quest Rogue and Face Hunter. (And recently Razakus Priest)
As these were decks that shaped the meta around them and were considered decks to basically either "Play" or forced to "Tech Against".

Anyone else read this as a "Tempo Rogue Baguette"? XD
Yummy!

I don't know about you, but I definitely feel like this is turning out to be the meta where Rogue (and Priest of course) has it's chance to properly shine in terms of flexibility.
I always hated Rogue decks back in the day - both to face off against and to play (I found them very 1-dimensional and dull).
But it seems as though the sheer number of different play styles that Rogue can offer now makes it a really excellent (and formidable class).
Miracle Rogue
Monster Rogue
Keleseth Rogue
(Just saw a) Malygos Rogue
Mill Rogue
Weapons Master Rogue
Burglar Rogue
Keleseth Nightmare
Jade Janks (This is one of the strongest Rogue decks I have made / played!)
When you compare this to a number of the other classes, it makes you realise just how limited some of the other ones are. Many (if not admittedly all) of the above archetypes are very much viable at present - I've play tested most apart from Malygos (don't have her) and Weapons (don't have the ones I need) - at least, in the upper non-legend ranks, they appear to be.
I guess I just never thought I would see the day where the majority of current decks in my box appear to be variations of Rogue.
We live in strange times! Heh!

How refreshing to actually have a legitimate and honest question about a game mechanic on here for a change! :-)

Welcome to the forums as well, buddy!

I'm always in 2 minds about the Hydra. It may have supremely good stats for the cost, but it's downside is reaaalllly awkward to play around at times. And there's often lots of ways to regret playing it.
But then, it can also come out and destroy your opponent. So I dunno. It's such an awkward card to play!

Psychologists call this “external locus of control.” It’s a kind of fatalism, where people believe that they can do little or nothing personally to change their lives. Because of this, they either merely hope for the best, focus on trying to change their luck by various kinds of superstition, or submit passively to whatever comes—while complaining that it doesn’t match their hopes.Most successful people take the opposite view. They have “internal locus of control.” They believe that what happens in their life is nearly all down to them; and that even when chance events occur, what is important is not the event itself, but how you respond to it.This makes them pro-active, engaged, ready to try new things, and keen to find the means to change whatever in their lives they don’t like. They aren’t fatalistic and they don’t blame bad luck for what isn’t right in their world. They look for a way to make things better.Are they luckier than the others? Of course not. Luck is random—that’s what chance means—so they are just as likely to suffer setbacks as anyone else. What’s different is their response. When things go wrong, they quickly look for ways to put them right. They don’t whine, pity themselves, or complain about “bad luck.” They try to learn from what happened to avoid or correct it next time and get on with living their life as best they can.
No one is habitually luckier or unluckier than anyone else. It may seem so, over the short term (Random events often come in groups, just as random numbers often lie close together for several instances—which is why gamblers tend to see patterns where none exist). When you take a longer perspective, random chance is just . . . random. Yet those who feel that they are less lucky, typically pay far more attention to short-term instances of bad luck, convincing themselves of the correctness of their belief.

Hmmm. Well, you could "not" troll him and be helpful instead?
(I know, crazy ideaz be cray-cray, right?) :-P
When you troll someone, you help no-one. It only makes others annoyed and less likely to ask you for help with anything actually important later on. ^_^
Now, you're not incorrect that luck of the draw is a fundamental concept of the game - that's granted.
But see beyond the complaint here and understand the real problem. This chap is looking for (essentially) a sanity check, that there is not some underlying mechanic working against him, conspiring to make him fail.
Short answer (to the OP) : there isn't. It's dumb luck and it happens. You'll find better days :-)
Don't get me wrong though - my own initial reply to you was just as troll-y as well (for which I apologise, but you know: fish and barrels, etc! Heh!). Perhaps we should all try and offer a sympathetic ear when people are feeling a little salty.
God knows this game can make even the lubberest of landlubbers at least a wee bit sea-salt-induced...!

Yes it is.
Though you will need to tech in some specific cards such as Skulking Gheist, etc, to deal with the anti-mill mechanics.
There are some good mill decks out there at present (although Dead Man's Warrior is probably near the top of the pile, but Rogue is still viable)

Well done - you successfully managed to write all that and still not actually contribute to the thread.
Impressive! ^_^

Allow me to correct you: those words are spelt "Get" and "Good".
There is also a comma before the word "kid".
On that note, how are things at school these days? Are you looking forward to moving up to Secondary School in a few years?
Must be exciting!

Also: "In the hours just before the beginning and conclusion of Hallow’s End on October 24 and November 6, it will temporarily be impossible to purchase a new Arena ticket."
So don't leaqve it too late / close to the deadline to get the arena ticket!
