I’ve been playing off and on since open beta. And pretty much exclusively BG’s since their introduction into the game. I have NEVER been a leaver. Like ever. It urks the crap outa me when people do it. But things have gotten to the point where if this 1 family is in the game the whole game becomes unplayable. Much more so than anything I have ever experienced in this game. Basically if beasts are in, then I’m out and on to the next match.
They are doing nothing about beasts at all in 29.0.3. I have managed to climb pretty well (7500ish right now) by literally just playing out in beast lobbies until whoever won the lottery hits T6 because I can usually place 2nd or 3rd. It’s not exactly ‘fun’ though.

See and for me it’s not about how I place. I’m never trying to climb the ladder but I typically hang in the mid 6k range. But I can take an 8th place loss and have fun in a good match. While I often get ~3rd in with beasts in and have had a miserable experience.
Who really cares about leveling anymore, generally I see if I can start anything going by turn 5 and if I can’t I leave. There is always someone who hits the lottery and is destroying everyone so who cares about trying to stay and try to recover. It’s a waste of time and that’s the sucky thing about the current BGs meta, there is no build and recover anymore.
And there’s very little scam. If it’s Undead/Beasts, venomous means almost nothing. Cleave is good, but you need a big guy in order for it to be viable in the end game. Beasts have had such a ride the last year. YEAR! No real counter whatsoever. If I had to choose one card good for counter Beasts not in the game and should be is Whitemane. It would require actual thinking when playing Beasts.

Yup. After this post the other day I still had a hard time auto-conceding, it’s just not my personality. But since then there’s been 6 or so games that I got to the end and had a miserable time PURELY because of beasts. So … I guess I’ll just put the game aside and check back in a couple patches to see if it’s ever going to be worth playing again.
