Cheap aggro decks in this game need to be toned down. What;s the point of collecting good cards if someone can just copy a 1000 dust deck from a website and match your 10000 dust deck?
I think I might just go back to playing arena. Constructed is just not fun. Maybe because some people don't have 10000 dust? I have over 600 play games total and spent all my gold on arena which I usually get 5-6 wins on average. I still have only ever gotten 1 legendary in a pack and only enough dust to make low budget decks. I still don't have any of the giants. The only non-aggro deck I play in constructed (rank 4 atm) right now is trump's budget mage deck. It's a solid deck but it's pretty bullshit when I don't have enough polymorphs/fireballs/faceless to counter their turn after turn legendaries. I really do wish I had enough dust to make a control deck of some sort though but I'm glad hearthstone isn't pay2win so I can actually fight on an even level with budget/aggro decks. It is not pay to win. I did not pay for my cards, I won them in the arena. The thing is: what is the point in doing arena for cards if a cheap deck is just as good as an expensive one? Read my post again, I said it isn't pay to win. The point is you have more versatility in which decks to play and non-aggro decks are usually more flexible. Also non-aggro is a lot more fun to play. I wish I could play more control but I just don't have the means of doing so atm.
the question you really should ask yourself is why you were crafting 2 Legendaries the night before you bought an additional 15 packs.

I was playing arena and this happens. Notice the opponents mana bar (10/10 vs my 1/1) and his hand (6 cards but only 5 visible). The game proceeded to freeze and I had to Ctrl-Alt Del my way out. Hope it doesn't count as a loss.

I am sitting on lots of dust wanting to craft at least 1 legendary but I don't want this to happen to me from opening packs either! I told myself I can do it at the start of next season.

I suppose its not really a significant rant, but still.. Sitting at rank 13 with my Shaman without great cards, no azure drakes, no gadzget auctioneer, only one lightning storm. No epics, no legendarys. Battling a warrior. Facing Ragnaros, ok i can deal with that. Facing Cairne, ok lil more problems but i can handle. Gorehowl comes in next, then Baron Geddon and finally Ysera. How in the bloody hell can i deal with that amount of Pay-to-win?
It's a bloody shame this guy is only at rank 13 with such powerful cards..

Played against the luckiest Mage, ever.
Turn 1: I have nothing. He plays Mana Wyrm - Coin - Mana Wyrm. Has 1/3 2/3 on the board.
Turn 2: I play 3/2 minion. He plays Mirror Image - Arcane Missiles. Has 3/3 4/3 0/2 0/2 on the board, did 10 damage my face.
Turn 3: He Frostbolts my minion - Arcane Missiles. Has 5/3 6/3 0/2 0/2 on the board, did 14 damage to my face.
Turn 4: Fireball to the face. The end.
o.O

How is it pay to win if he's still stuck at rank 13 and some free-to-play people have made it to legend rank already? Shaman doesn't need expensive cards. A typical competitive midrange shaman deck just need the key rares like the ones you mentioned to be top-tier. Epics like doomhammer are optional and from not having azure drakes to having 2 makes much more difference than, say, having thalnos or other legendaries. You are only a few rares away from being able to keep up with a deck with 7 legendaries...

After obtaining my 500 Huntard ranked wins yesterday, I go back to playing regular pally and miracle rogue... therefore no more "to the face tactics". Miracle rogue is so hit and miss, took me an hour extra long than I would have to obtain the 5 quest wins if I played Hunter. Then my pally while decent enough against Huntards themselves, loses to the unbelievably dumb shit I would tear up with Huntard like Shaman that uses Frost Shock and Bloodlust (are you kidding me?), and a lucky ass pally mirror match that is aggro going for my face I stabilize then he uses a divine favour as his top deck and draws 5 more cards and beats me the next 2 turns... god damn I can see why everyone plays aggro Huntard it's so frustrating to lose when you play standard and don't have all the necessary cards to complete your deck like Lay on Hands and Tirion

Aggro decks, why do they always top deck the exact card to kill me?

Because all their cards kill you

QQ on behalf of one of my arena opponents this week:
He starts by playing Wisp - Wisp - Goldshire Footman (amazing draft AND opening hand right there, buddy!)
His next turn is to play Mad Bomber. Doesn't hit me, my minion or him, but one of his Wisps and the Footman twice O_0

My last two games against aggro have resulted in perfect top decking for the only possible combination to kill me.
Why is being priest so hard

Because priests stopped being my personal mana battery after BC so you have to pay for it in Hearthstone
