I haven't played in about a year.

How is the meta? Is it worth getting back into? Do I still have to netdeck?

The legend climb is so damn stressful. At least I'm almost there. Anyone else making the climb for the first time?

>>175209928
Meta is legitimately a breath of fresh air right now. Every class except Warlock is legend viable.

But if you haven't played in a year be ready to fork over some money if you want a competitive deck.

>losing streak from rank 2 to rank 4

have murloc paladins been this exposed or am i just shit at the game

i don't even know what paladin deck to go with anymore, and all i have left is midrange hunter and some netdecked pirate warrior i barely use, i have lyra priest but dont have experience playing at all, it was coincidence and rng that i had the cards ready for it.

>>175210139
wow anon. casters have never been wrong about cards reviews before.

>>175210183
murloc paladin, midrange hunter and pirate warrior will all get you legend if you're good enough. try to figure out where you went wrong or what you didn't play around that you should play around next time

>>175210183
I just had a winning streak from rank 3 to 1 with Murloc Paladin. So I'm guessing it's variance, a bad list, or you're not piloting it right.

Using secrets properly for the right match ups and knowing when you're beat down or when you're control is important. Sometimes it's very important to conserve your Warleader / Megasaur for value, sometimes you gotta race.

why do netdeckers think they are actually good at the game?

>>175210538
because blizzard pushes it as an """""esport"""""

>>175210139

its good when you can actually get it off, but everytime I play it, the other guy always has a way to kill it. in arena though you should always take it.

>>175211259
Because they get higher ranks than you do. and they're right

>>175211259
Why do special snowflake edgelords think they're better than netdeckers even though they're actually shieldbearers?

>>175210529
Also, I get out aggro'd by hunters, druids who have really control, elemental shaman, I'm just really frustrated at this point

i draw good curves. I maintained rank 2 for a long time but it seems im just going to give up because everyone has been throwing their hungry crabs left and right

It's a fairly balanced meta right now, this was a good expansion imo

- Paladin went from being bottom 3 since first rotation to being top 3 again (maybe best)
-Warlock finally meets it's day of the rope
-Hunter isn't OP but it's playable again (it was complete dumpster inviable last xpac)
-Priest has deck diversity for the first time in the history of HS, and SILENCE PRIEST has replaced handlock in playstyle and difficulty as a top deck
-Many meta decks include multiple leggos and epics, but there are at least over 5 viable cheap decks and budget versions of meta lists are currently effective despite what retards with no creativity think
-Druid is diverse and it's cancer is mostly kept in check
-new meta is basically balanced around a Rock-Paper-Scissors dynamic but there are certain hedge decks that spice up the flowchart a bit
-Shaman is balanced

>>175210538
Because every game is a game of skill. Even rock, paper, scissors.

>>175212501
>this was a good expansion imo
The expansion isnt good, whats good is we lost almost 200 cards from standard

>>175211259
Because the important part is playing your deck and not building it? This isn't minecraft, you dont get extra points for creativity.

It might be you not optimally piloting, but honestly it happens. In the climb sometimes you will just happen to lose 7 in a row, and you have to stay calm and let it go. If you keep going your winrate will stabilize, just try not to tilt. Even the best players using all time OP decks have only reached upwards of 70% on a climb.

I'm using this deck as well, but now that the archetype has exploded I think it might be a bit outdated with it's tech, considering it has split into full aggro and midrange versions while this is more of a hybrid hedge. Experimenting with 1 Equality over Divine Favor, maybe will cut Tareem for Leeroy. Anyone using a full SMOrc list that could give some tech advice?

Whatever floats your boat, I enjoy Wild right now too but I know that this might be something endemic to just myself around these parts.

>>175214151
I started playing wild a bit to farm golden portraits and quests: how can anybody enjoy this shit? It's all just priest quest shitters or reno warlocks, both of which will never ever die.

>>175214526
Get out of the dumpster ranks and you'll see virtually zero of those two decks.
Quest priest is hilariously bad against pretty much all aggro, which is probably 70-90% of all rank 5 and up decks.

>>175214526
Are you playing Pirate Warrior? They are very good (and sometimes frustrating) control decks but just play something with some gas on the top end, there's enough of that in wild

>>175214806
I dusted my dr boom and loatheb, so I cant really play good agressive decks. I'm just playing quest priest myself, because I crafted that shit on day 1 and want to get my dust worth...

Is there any difference between rank 15 and rank 5? The same decks seemed to be played, and I don't have any of the new cards.

>>175218042

people tend to misplay less often in higher ranks. you can win with ridiciolous decks at 15 while you need something decent further up.

>>175218042
>Is there any difference between rank 15 and rank 5?
Yes, but not at the last 5 days of the season

Very nice, if you get Shadow Visions on the mulligan than shuffle away your quest and complete it twice :^)

have the avatars for the players been chosen? i assume so...

Quest warrior has completely ruined the fun of this game for me. I play mostly freeze mage and aggro druid, and I come across a lot of these guys. It's a fucking headache to sit there and bring him down to 2-3 HP while he keeps armoring up, and eventually hope you don't get hit by the hero power.

Midrange hunters are mauling taunt warriors on the ladder. Same goes for #Valuedin.

Need help. There is a random wall of control priests at rank 3. I can't stop them.

Holy shit, that's not a bad idea. Thanks anon.

>>175220604
What exactly is the shortcoming of Control Priest? As Paladin they outvalue me and steal all my shit. As Token Druid their spells are just so good at handling my minions.

>>175220962
They can't deal with 4 attack minions.
And their hero power is piss if they don't have any board.
Also most control priest board clear is only on turn 6.

>>175221095
The issue for me has been Shadow Visions. Having a 3rd Potion of Madness or SWP is just game for my aggro decks.

is using grievous bite in mid-range hunter a good tech? It seems to work pretty well against all aggro and has its uses late gmae

Brazil rekt

>>175221223
All meta relevant decks have strong cards. Control priest isn't T1 by a mile. You have other decks to worry about.

I'll just post mine which has been working for me. The cards on the chopping block for me are the Infested Wolf and Timber Wolf. I love Deadly Shot a lot. I recommend one if you see a lot of Quest Warrior.

Yeah I'd just replace those with Lightning Storm/Devolve or some random Big Boy idk. It doesn't really hurt your bad matchups, but mind as well concede against Dragon Priest, Quest Rogue, and it makes Taunt Warrior harder. Devolve is such a nice "fuck you" card against Taunt Warrior. If you are running the first list with Flametongues, WIIIIINDS is an option~~~

legend this month is actually so easy and means nothing. everybody is playing shitty decks especially at rank floors so what used to be all final bosses are now just free wins. normally like 10000 people get legend on eu this month it's more like 30000 and it's not even at the end yet

I got stuck at rank 10 for like a day and was getting frustrated with this shit. Thankfully I got matched against a Warlock, two Hunters, and a Quest Rogue and rode my way to victory.

I wish I had more time to play, otherwise I'd get to rank 5. I think this Midrange Hunter is good enough that any retard could do it, like myself.

>>175234295
>owl in 2017

"What should we make the class that literally gives life have to do to complete their quest?"
"Make em play minions that have to die."
Fuck you blizzard, at least make it something intuitive to the class like heal 15 minions, or steal 7 cards from the enemy.
The actual reward is really good, but the fucking way to complete the quest is awful. It really limits your gameplay.
Got Nzoth? No? Got shifting shades? No? Don't fucking bother then.

Local priest literally too angry to climb.

>pull a legendary from tavern brawl pack

Grull is 600 dust, right? Maybe now I can make 2 Dragonfire Potions alongside my Don Hancho That or Sleep with the Fishes

>>175234997

If you were playing paladin or warlock bitching about quests i'd take you seriously.

>>175234475
Hunter's Mark has saved my ass, I just run one copy as a safe way to answer anything. I've been thinking of not running it but I don't know, seems like it could get good use out of killing Taunt Warrior which seems to be this decks biggest problem.
Yeah I've been thinking of dropping him, too bad I don't own the Murloc crab and don't have the dust to craft him.
Owl again is just something I'm testing. Haven't played it once even.
Fledgling has literally won me games when the opponent opens badly. It's instant pressure on the opponent. I'm only running it at one anyways. I tried him at two for a while though, it didn't work out.

>>175234476
Meh, I guess I could drop it. What should I put instead? I've also been thinking of dropping a McCaw, that card can be pretty bad sometimes.

Warlocks discard, and pallys buff their minions.
But deathrattle priests weren't a common thing before this xpac.

>>175235491
It's too slow, the damage is over three turns and if you're hitting minions you're taking damage too. 4 damage also isn't nearly as relevant turn 7 as it is turns 4-5.

They are the class MOST associated with death since Death knights in HS are not a thing. Sure you could make the argument why a titan watcher is the reward for a quest whose objective is more in line with the void lords but judging from your post I doubt you know what either of those are.

What decks are viable past Rank 5?

Keep bouncing back between Rank 4 and 5. Had the best luck with Quest Reno N'Zoth, but the games were like 30 minutes each.

Maybe a one of, cut Infested Wolf/Rat Pack or something along those spots. I don't seem to have the problem of Mages beating me as Hunter. Just Steady Shot every chance you get and keep them at an odd health total.

>>175236956
Basically either bring crabs or flares depending on what you're playing more of that day, for a while I was subbing out 1 sav and roc for flares, it works well against paladins too

sure here are some keywords that would save space too

-Defender- This minion cant attack
-Echo- If this creature is destroyed place a copy of it into your deck without this ability
-Blight- when this minion deals damage it reduces attack as well as health
-metamorphasis- after two turns this minion transforms
-unblockable- this minion's statline and card text cannot be altered and cannot be blocked by minions.
-vigilance- You may assign this defender to any attacker instead of its original target.
-regenerate- restore this minion to full health at the end of each player turn.
-sly- this minion gains stealth at the end of your opponents turn
-hatred- This card can only attack a specific tribe

this has been the best expansion by miles

i was trying to think of what made it so good earlier and i think it comes down to the fact that they just printed a bunch of good cards

every class except warlock just has a bunch of very viable cards, and of these cards many of them either don't have the word random written on them or have controlled randomness (discover, adapt (aka discover 2.0))

this in combination with what the other guy said about the huge rotation of cards has really made the game's overall depth go way up

it's one of the only expansions that i've cared enough to actually get to legend again, because of how fun and viable most decks are

Alright lads, I finally got around to scrapping my wild cards and came up with 5600 dust. If I go through and finish my PvE I can probably come up with a couple thousand more. What deck should I craft?

>>175246773

freeze mage, jade druid, quest warrior, pirate warrior, quest rogue if you want to be meta

Okay, obviously I can't craft all of them so out of the two warrior decks, which is most viable?

>In casual

This is just silly

>>175246773
gunther mage, midrange pally, quest rogue if you like midrangey control, and pirate warrior or aggro pally if you want to play aggro

taunt warrior is definitely good but i dont think it's better than any of the decks above

One player dictates the meta now? Since when? Besides, Sjow could reach top 100 playing any piece of shit deck, he's literally one of the best players in the world.

>It will never be a viable archetype
why do you say that when it has already been a viable archtype in karazhan?

>>175248981
Playable at Rank 15 =/= viable

>>175248992
did you even play during kara?
only reason it wasn't tier 1 was because shaman ran 4 board clears

>>175248981

it was about as viable as burgle rogue

>>175248821

Because they don't want another abandoned mechanic like joust. It's going to get pushed until it gets played.

lol what

>>175249046

It got shit on by every meta deck that were teched to beat midrange shaman, even malydruid wasn't that bad against it with moonkin

>best players in the world
dude this is hearthstone
the skill ceiling is incredibly low

are you saying that rank 40 legend players wouldn't play the most viable decks? i played against a ton of mage variants while climbing through ranks 1 and 2. maybe they were just playing around though, right?

if you want some outward opinion or whatever freeze mage is literally ranked 1 by actual pros (not disgusiedtoast himself, the dudes who write his guides) https://disguisedtoast.com/meta_deck_rankings

>>175249051
it was an extremely popular tournament deck. calling it discard instead of zoo seems wrong though. it still needed a few new cards to make that leap.

>>175249259
it was also according to tempostorm the fourth best deck in the meta

>>175249208
>the skill ceiling is incredibly low

t. rank 5 "I could make legend if I put the time in I just don't want to it's not worth the grind"

>>175249354
almost everyone at rank 5 could easily reach legend if they just played pirate warrior and gave it the time
t. legend card back

>tempostorm

you had me going there for a bit, not gonna lie

>>175249354
i've been legend 4 times and am currently legend

compared to other games, this game has a low skill ceiling. not to say it doesn't take skill to play some decks well. not sure why you would even try to deny that the skill ceiling is not very high

>>175249406
Looks like I hit a little to close to home there lmao

>>175249408
amaz pls go

>>175249476
>say something retarded
>get called out for being retarded
>hurr I win you wouldn't have corrected me if I wasn't right

>>175249484
kek

But really, even reddit values the TS meta snapshot as nothing but trash

Classic /pol/ tier response

1. You're not making an argument, this isn't an argument.
2. You're literally a shitter who has never hit legend ITT telling everyone how easy the game is, you know how fucking stupid you look?

>>175249669
you said above that you were rank 5
you also said that hearthstone has a high skill ceiling and were then called out by me and the other guy (who are legend) for being wrong

your response was then basically "hah you mad lol!"

and now you're just talking in circles

maybe i was wrong. maybe there is a skill ceiling in hearthstone and you're just too short to touch it

Fucking hell shut up about ranks you sad faggots

>>175249669
classic retard tier response
>1. You're not making an argument
no I called you retarded which seems to have been a fair assessment
>You're literally a shitter who has never hit legend
this is false
>telling everyone how easy the game is
I said what I said which is that if you're good enough to reach rank 5 you're good enough for legend if you play the best deck this is a very fair statement
