Honestly I’m gonna say yes, you ARE a bad player.
Look at that guy who broke down your replay link. I didn’t even watch it myself, because he’s naming mistakes left an right.
This is what I truly think, an you take away from this as you will ok? You are allowing losses to be an indicator of lack of skill.
Now with evidence to show us you really are making suboptimal plays, which hurts to have it pointed out. The most CRUCIAL thing to point out is wild mode.
I know that stupid Mage deck an Priest deck. Wild has some of the cheesiest, run you over highroll garbage one can find in the game. That Mage deck is basically what I call an Infinite Conbo. I’ve been the victim of a turn 5 Flamewanker into Apprentice an watched them complete the quest on the same turn. No, that BS isn’t fair in the slightest, neither is bloody Barnes.
I personally was stuck at rank 6 for 3 days. Even having full stars at 6, 4 different times an I would get cucked by some nut highroll garbage over an over. Barnes on 3 with coin, Mage infinite conbo, a pally with Thekal into double Molten Giant on 4. Yes, its hard to not be super pissed when it happens.
But people make progress by consecutively just playing well. That’s how I got into 5 eventually. I think what would help you is playing a deck outside of your comfort zone like how you enjoy aggresive decks. Borrow someone’s control deck.
You learn a lot from the different archtypes by participating in all forms of decks. I read you were eager to build a Dragon Priest an boy oh boy do I think that’s a good idea.
Because everytime you open VS or whatever nonsense site you check that people say is useful, you’re bumming yourself out by believeing the decks actually have those winrates.
You see Mech Hunter is really good? An procced to lose to highroll trash. You really should be climbing with a deck like that, but you’re playing very poorly.
Seeing you hold certain cards back thinking of what your opponent might have to counter is smart…until you realize you’re playing aggro. Its your job to force the opponent to have the answers. Not play around possible ones.
I know this is long but here’s the crux of my message to you. You cannot let the losses from wild mode get you down. Watching people get insane power plays that are obviously unfair like Voidcaller into Voidlord. You wanna play Mech Hunter you should understand whats super unfair about your deck an capitalize on it.
Aka you must fish for the discount mech cards. Then stuff like Mechroo an sticky tokens, so you can hammer down metal tooth leaper an win. Don’t keep junk like Spider Bomb an stuff, those cards don’t help.
