Having run into so many face hunters today who all run the same deck, I find it bad if not worse than quest mage who at the very least needs minions to get their quests off.
I’ve found you need a near-perfect draw to beat the face rush, which doesn’t seem to matter what is on the board.
Although to be honest it seems that the quest decks all around are really the cancer of this meta.
face hunter has been this way for few expansions. it’s what they do face is the place
For me the worst is aggro druid, has been for a while and it got some support in the miniset. Face hunter has much more bad matchups, although it is pretty broken too (and super easy to play, just as the name dictates, go face and that’s it) I don’t play either of these decks really, I’ve been playing a lot of fel dh before the miniset, which I was almost glad to run into so many aggro druids with it hehehe.
Since the mini set, I haven’t played that much, mostly played big DH with proving grounds, but I seem to run into a lot of warriors, aggro druids and face hunters. Warrior is also very broken right now.
I think aggro druid has to be one of the strongest decks currently.
It’s fairly easy to use and recovers well after board wipes.
See this is the funny part. Everyone sort of accepted that Face Hunter was always going to be around and that losing in 6/7 turns to that deck was okay. Now we get Smite and he’s doing the same except a turn later from pirate warrior and everyone is losing their mind.
One deck like this is acceptable but two is a bridge too far??
That’s pretty much exactly what I’ve been thinking this whole time I’m watching the forums go into a frothing frenzy over quest mage.
But losing by turn 7 to a face hunter with no interaction is hilarious and somehow allowed?
At the least, with a pirate warrior, he has mobs on the deck to deal with makes the quest warrior bearable and beatable.
Aggro druids rip them apart.
I love fast meta, it felt bad when i play a long game and lost, like a big wasted of time. Just bought the Hunter battle ready deck and turn it into the baku version. Pew Pew Pew… and DONE.
i use to play Seed lock before Pew-Pew-Hunter, but it’s been nerf to death and band in wild, Just have to wait until Seed rotate to play the original version of it.
For me Original Seed-Lock is very fun to play, no match-up feel un-beatable (like when you play vs Rez-Priest, they keep rez their wall of taunts and you run out of board clear kind of feeling.)
