If you are slow deck you are overwhelmed by other deck mid-range and control are dead, welcome to aggro fest blizzard, It seems like they are pushing more toward the mobile market.
I don’t know how long Hearthstone can last this blizzard pushes for mobile players to spend $40 or $80 for each expansion because PC players are getting tired and leaving so the mobile market going to kill Hearthstone down the road.
Blood DK go brrrrrr…
It is not just Dk it, other classes, to pushing control and mid-range to extinction like the dinosaurs. If you are a PC player and want to play a relaxing game, yeah right it’s a thing of the past, it is a cheap, fast path mobile game now.
Blizzard forgot who supports all the years not mobile, but the PC players does not stick their middle finger at us and suppose to be ok with it.
its all aggro plus blood DK
I win 10 games every day with BBB. This is as much of a control deck as old school wallet warrior.
So no, control is not dead. It’s a shame though that it’s represented by only a single deck.
Lmao. And so the meme continues
Your wrong the best deck in the game right now is a CONTROL deck.
Its Blood dk.
I dont.
I play wild. Been using Razakus or big priest for basically half decade now. I dont need to spend annual 120 bucks to keep up with standard.
I just need to use some dust to update the decks. Some cheaper stuff sometime replace the legies or epics. The up keep is insanely different. Big priest getting really cheap compared to the versions years ago.
Many other stuff like this. Secret mage, pirate warrior, etc.
I simply que with whizbang to try new stuff. I got Him gold. Our lord and savior, Whizbang.
Its also easier for me to play HS again after hiatus. I refuse to do dailies in religiously for years. I dont need to have targets to achieve. Not in a freakin game.
It is me who own the game, not the game that own me.
I went to rank 10 diamond in one day with tony XL warrior. it s a pure breed slow, simple control deck that aims to goes for attrition.
Granted, its starting to get hard to climb with it .
I’m 11-2 with control Priest.
and not even a good one as far as mobile experiences go
control is dead if the best deck in the game is discover knight which shuts out every other form of control in the game.
and it isn’t even face paced game like most if not all of an enemy turn is spent waiting for donkey holes to discover cards, trade, discover etc
Have you met my good friend “I’m going to play your deck for you but better” control priest?
priest still loses to blood. can MAYBE win if they somehow manage to steal key stuff with harvester of envy but that will never happen. infinite shadow spells are almost all reactive and blood dk just kills you with mograine. plus priest has a ton of draw so it fatigues way faster. you have not played this matchup enough
Sure but it’s ANOTHER control deck in the meta that is as good.
I have played a couple DK’s with it and beaten them. It’s really in how you play it and approach their deck.
It’s endlessy funny to me everything has to be a conspiacy for these people. Blizzard can barely balance the game but they can simultaneously make a set in advance that’s supposed to be aggrostone and let the prominent classes be Blood DK (control), Paladin (Midrange) and DH (midrange) WHILE simultaneously pushing through the mobile market who seemingly wants aggro.
Bro, Blizzard simply is bad at balancing. They can’t be competent and imcopetent at the same time
Honestly midrange without some sort of mana cheat has been dead for a very long time.
Control has had overtuned tools (board clears, discovers, swing-y win con type cards) for a long time. But I don’t think until Blood DK any control deck has really broken through in a long while.
Control isn’t dead. What’s dead is starting the game on turn 5 instead of turn 1. You could get away with it in Classic 8 years ago but not for a long time and certainly not in modern Hearthstone.
Blood DK was always powerful. They just gave it win conditions now.
