Burnstone : OTK from hand, no board presence needed

Frost DK
Quest DH
Armor Druid
Aggro Ping Mage
Arcane Bolt Mage
Shockspitter Hunter

How many similar burn OTK decks do we need? All those deck can deal 20+ damage in a turn from hand before turn 10.

Mograine, Quest Hunter, Warlock Curses. For real, how many burn spells does this game need?

This game with almost no interaction with the opponent cards outside the board.

Still, even control deck now win with 20-30+ unavoidable burn damage in control mirrors.

Play Brann Mograine, stop caring about board presence at all, win.

If a triple Blood DK can pull off a Brann Mograine and not die the next turn then you were already going to lose.

I know control mirror is a very hard concept to grasp at this point in time, but no, 9-11 stats + infinite burn clock + Brann is a must kill target = not a terrible 10 mana turn. Especially when your class can reach 55-65 total life most games at no card disadvantage.

It’s so funny how people still call Mograine ā€˜ā€˜too slow’’ when he’s like a 80% win rate card when played.

Team 5 needs to reset the power creep and develop new formats to relegate these cards broken cards/combos to (besides Wild). The game is so far from what classic hearthstone was and not for the better.

50% frost dk is getting very tiresome

Mograine only gets played when the Blood DK is ahead, AKA when they are already winning.

He’s a 7 mana card that doesn’t impact the board or game state in a heavy burn meta. How on earth can you justify crying about him?

They said ā€œcontrol mirrorā€ (so I assume any control vs control, even different classes), of course against aggro and burn it’s not effective

Warrior is very minion central, which is the curse of the class.

This is the worst meta I’ve seen in a long time. I’m not enjoying it at all and can’t find a single deck that I enjoy playing

I’ve resolved to be playing battlegrounds for the next few months.

It’s a burn OTK meta bro. Just relax, it probably won’t last past next week. Blizzard is known to hate this kind of metas the most, and they are usually pretty fast to act against these kind of metas lasting too long.
In the meantime, i’m having a lot of fun destroying most of top 1k legend ladder with Shockspitter Hunter lol…

Wish they would hurry.

I hate this meta, like really really despise it.

This type of gameplay just aint for me

It’s an absolute trash meta. Every match is just board clear - burn, board clear - burn, board clear - burn.

First step in fixing the game’s current issues…reduce all the mana reduction and mana cheating some of these classes are abusing. Yes, I’m boring holes into DH and druid on this one, as they are the two most blatant and disgusting offenders. It gets tiresome just sitting there watching these two classes play upwards of 40 mana worth of cards in a turn. Why is Blizzard so obsessed with these types of effects? They are as interactive as being strapped to a chair forced to watch paint dry.

You really should be complaining to Blizzard about their push to have every game end by turn 6 to 8 on average. This is the reason for them allowing so many otk decks, they need ā€œfinisherā€ cards and synergies for all major deck archetypes out there, which for better or worse means otk synergies and cards in just about every deck you encounter.

I thought this was the meta everyone wanted? You know games that are over before you are off the toilet. :smiley:

Apparently alot of people need bathroom entertainment.

Classic had the same problems with charge minions (rush didn’t exist til years in), ice lance, power overwhelming, leeroy Jenkins etc.

Point is these devs are all new apparently and are making the same mistakes over and over again…
