Is there a place to not face netdecks outside of arena? Last games in casual were only against tier 1 decks : miracle rogue, any variation of aggro shaman, dragon priest, pirate warrior. I thought lower ranks would be better but no, some people are stuck at rank 11 with renolock or pirate warrior. The worst part is that even with those brainless decks they manage to hit face with the last charge of their weapon before attacking with bucaner on board and play raider benefiting form weapon atatck afterward, using any part of the combo from renolock when under no pressure, using faceless shambler on a minion right before using power overwhelming on said minion, never trading a small minion to kill an injured big one which would kill their next drop or sometimes they start trading when they're about to win, playing dirty rat on curve, shuffling jade idol turn 1 etc

Why do people want Call of the Wild to be 8 mana again? If you compare Huffer / Leokk / Misha to Wolfrider / Raid Leader / Ironfur Grizzly, you gain two extra points of stat and the beast tag. I think it is fair for Animal Companion though because you are getting a random one.

But being able to summon all three guaranteed (provided you have the space for it), which also synergises with each other very well at a discounted price? That was not fun at all. 9 Mana is more fair imho

I see nothing has changed in this game - you either conform to the few flavour of the month powerful decks or you get comfortable with the idea of those same decks carrying poor players.

Drafted a 75 tier score control/attrition deck in arena, lost first two games by turn 6 with terrible draws, lost game 5 to a 12/9 minion on turn 5, went 2-3 through no fault of my own.

Other than playing Anyfin, how are you supposed to win against priest in the lategame? Seriously, I don't get it.

What am I supposed to do against Shamans. One in four games in the last week was against Shaman of some sorts. And it doesn't matter if I play reno mage or renolock or dragon priest or evolve shaman or literally anything. They play 5!!!!! cards by turn two, and just run you over with burst and weapons after you finally clear the board by turn 5 or 6.

I don't give a shit about pirate warriors, at least they play by the same rules as everyone else but shamans make me want to punch my hand through the screen. I'd rather be slapped to the balls with a whip made of barbed wire than have another shaman roll a spell power totem on empty board and then proceed to high roll two minions from 4 health to death.

Fuck shamans

One in four only? Lifecoach showed his stats on the last 130 games or so, 43% were against shaman.

2 cards in hand, play Don Han'Cho.

Buffed topdeck Flamejuggler assassinates 8/1 giant he can't deal with otherwise.

Topdeck Hammer of Wrath to dispose of 6/2 he can't remove cheaply.

second flamestrike from ethereal conjurer, second firelands portal from cabalist's tome

how else would these fucking idiots win without the power of RNG to carry them, nevermind the fact that I never see a single one of the 3 cards in my mage drafts?

Yes, it's sooooo fucking fun to play against priest. 4 Drakonid operatives, and then he plays 4 Cabalist's Tomes. Great. Or him getting 2 Malygos from Netherspite Historian. In the end I won the 2 Malygos game only because he was a moron and was drawing cards all the time which gave me an 8 card lead in fatigue.

About 1/2 hour ago at 3-1 with Druid, I faced a Druid Jade Golem constructed deck in Arena, by the end my opponent had Aya Blackpaw, 5/5, 6/6 & 7/7 Jade Golem on the board. My only removal were x2 Starfire in the deck.

My opponent had all of these in the first half of the deck, pretty much on curve as well.
Jade Idol
Jade Claws
Jade Blossom
Jade Spirit
Jade Behemoth
Jade Chieftan
Jade Lightning
Aye Blackpaw

I'm pretty sure Shaman doesn't have Jade Idol, Jade Blossom or Jade Behemoth either :D

Yeah, you're correct. I mixed the 2 losses I had in a row against Golems, I faced a Druid that had the 5/5, 6/6 and 7/7 (second loss). My first loss was against a Shaman who had multiple Jade Claw(s), a Jade Spirit, a Jade Lightning and a Jade Chieftan. My third loss was against a Warlock who wiped my board with a Felfire Potion, followed up with a turn 7 Abyssal Enforcer, turn 8 Abyssal Enforcer and turn 9 Siphon Soul on my Bog Creeper.

This was the Druid, I drew all my late game in the beginning, all I had was a 1 mana Enchanted Raven to play, had to Hero Power turn 2 and 3.

Turn 1 - Jade Idol (1/1)
Turn 2 - Wild Growth
Turn 3 - Jade Blossom (2/2)
Turn 4 - Jade Spirit (3/3)
Turn 5 - Jade Behemoth (4/4)
Turn 6 - Jade Behemoth (5/5)
Turn 7 - Jade Idol + Aya Blackpaw (6/6) (7/7)

That is like an average Dragon Priest for me. It can be even more annoying than that

So.... I got Pyroblasted in the face 2 turns in a row yesterday.

Guy was playing a RENO DECK. But I guess his Babbling book gave him a Pyroblast and he was running a second one (because he's bad?)

What the actual fuck???

a lot of people are playing a reno mage version with inkmaster solia and pyroblast. it's really not bad at all because you can pair it with frost bolt/ice lance, fireball, or roaring torch for 15+ after alexstrasza. it was in noblords rank 1 legend list.
