This is ironic given how profoundly opposite my political opinions are from him, but I did get one particularly good life lesson from when I heard Ben Shapiro say “two things can be true at once.”
It IS true that Druids (I would know, I main Druid) get utterly wrecked by aggro decks. Best case scenario we play a 3/2 body on turn 1, turn 2 coin/inner into a 3/2 body that gets us to 4 mana turn 3, which then lets us drop a 4/5 taunt + card draw, which lets us coin/2nd inner into steal-your-girl('s mana) and from there it’s the same tired story everyone hates.
But you look at our board presence, and what do you see? In four turns, we have a 4/5, 4/5 taunt, 3/2, and 3/2. Even if you do NOTHING to counter us, LITERALLY just passing your turn, it still takes us until turn 5 or 6 to develop lethal from that. Which for those of you keeping track at home, is coincidentally when the Druid starts “popping off” with their infinite mana shenanigans. MEANING, by the time we even DO that, “Omae Wa Mou Shinderiu!”
So really, if we start doing the crap this thread complains about, it’s YOUR fault for letting us do it.
At, the same, time, though (I’m using the commas, that I stole from OP). Two things, can be true at once.
The fact that Druid CAN do these things is more than a little ridiculous. Yes, we have counters, but also yes, we do have way too much everything. You either kill us with aggro or you lose. It’s not a fun choice.
