How oblivious of actual gameplay are the devs for Hearthstone really… much so it seems, at least regarding the Demon Hunter class…
Pretty sure the statistics will show an overwhelming percentage of people playing this class, and with good reason… this truly is the ONE CLASS TO RULE THEM ALL.
It has basically EVERY tool available with no regards to balance - Heals, silence, weapons, card draw etc.
As an opponent to this class you have very limited options, doesn’t really matter if you try to come with a strategy ie. running them out of card in hand, having them kill themselves on taunt minions, outheal them… whtever you think of is almost impossible as they just refill hand, heal up or use Bladdance to remove 3 7+ health minions AND THEN attack as well…
Congratz devs, you have over a few expansions managed to dumb the game down and make it a DH Fest…
Rework it please…

Yeah I know they have weaknesses but holy crap some of the plays are absurd. As you said, theyll have like 8 attack with lifesteal and then cast a 2 mana card and wipe your board. Then they have SO much draw so even if you defend they never seem to run out of fuel.

I don’t think DH is OP … but the class is forcing everyone to play a certain way … like you know Mage or even Priest have no chance against DH, so everyone is going for Zoolock, Paladin and Hunter because they have at least a chance to “out aggro” DH … or to heal a bunch. So while i think the class is not OP, it’s definitely shaping the meta.
Zoo lock has no chance - I’m around 20 percent win rate. Only playing zoo atm.

dont you feel a little bit confused about the 1st part like “i dont think its op just forces ppl to play nothing else but things that can go head to head with it…”
And in the second one too not OP… definitely meta shaping…decide alreadyXD

You do have a point. But it’s kind of hard to say it’s OP because is not like they win all the time … Hell even when i’m playing DH i have a difficult time against Paladin. It’s probably because other classes are very bad equiped against DH.
I know it sounds weird, but yeah … defining the meta but not Op if it makes any sense.

It’s seems to me, that dh is the favourite class of blizzard game designerses children, so thats why they make it unbeatable, absolutely incompetent job

yes DH needs a nerf and I would argue Hunter as well. I just got legend with a hunter like it was child’s play. the only ones I had trouble with for the most part was demon hunters.

This isnt big news for years everyone and their mother told ppl “you want legend u play hunter EZ PEASY!”
Its just way easier now.
Yes, Paladin and at times Priest are probably the classes that can beat the DH’s dependent on draw… That does not change the fact that DH’s have the craziest synergy seen in HS and some cards that are WAY too powerful…
Priest counters DH sometimes? Well devs need to look into this and nerf priest appropriately - like they did to the warlock. DH is the Garen of HS.

His 58% winrate is not real 70% just becouse there are too much other dh in the meta. If only blizzard’s dolboebs bother themselfs to look on winrate of dh against other class - they probably will understand, if they are not completely brainless
Sry u spelled LUX wrong there.
At least there is one playable deck for those, who doesn´t stuff money into cards as DH has great deck without legendaries or epicks. Sad, but true… Hunter used to be like this.
