I’m tired of seeing the same ol same ol garbage over and over again. Tired of seeing people play netdecked lameness rather than trying out interesting and different things.
I want a game mode that lets me play standard decks and still face interesting opponents more often rather than people just running the same OP-ness they copied off the net.
How would you enforce it so people can’t create a net deck?
Can’t be card for card? One card off? 2 cards off?
Eventually, what you’d find is that the mode will be filled with the net decks but only a few cards off. You really can’t stop it.
You’d probably have to have card banning options to make it possible. Like ban 5 cards, that would knock out a lot of common decks.
Seems like a decent idea. But that would just make more net decks appear.
Assume there’s 20 net decks. You ban 5 cards to eliminate those 5 decks. Now you just end up with 15 of those net decks, and 5 of those net decks with 28-29 cards of the other 5 you banned.
The net decking just continues as now the meta produces 25 net decks.
The only way to stop netdecking is to have random decks. So basically you want something like Crossroad Tavern Brawl or Wizbang decks only to be a permanent mode.
As much as i hate it, you cant get rid of netdecking–there is literally no way to stop it. For some people, hitting Legend is as necessary as breathing air, and if they lack the ingeunity to do it on their own, netdecking is the go-to.
Just take solace in the times you hit legend with a true homebrew and you just got to let it go. Netdecks will be now and forever, just run techs and decks to screw them and be done with it. Nothing else to do.
That’d be so funny.
Except the mode would be dominated by a class with the most generally good cards that don’t have strict synergy or deck composition requirements. Probably hunter.
It’s just a mode and each player can pick what cards they ban, so there’s be no real stable meta that you have to face (I’m sure there would still be a dominant set of cards, but you could ban your way around them for variety).
It would probably take a looooong time to get matches though.
It’s also expensive computationally so get your wallet ready.
The funny thing is that 90% of the player base would ban the same 5 cards:
All top 5 cards Priest is using, just to make sure they don’t face a Priest ever again 
Hearthstone is a competitive game. Everyone wants to win.
I recently came back to the game, but I don’t play ranked at all anymore. I just play against friends and family, which allows us to do whatever we want. One of my friends refuses to net any deck at all, and he’s no pro, but it’s pretty fun to see what he comes up with.
OTOH, I like to look up how the cards interact with each other, and build based on that. Most of my decks are memes though. None of my decks would get me super far on ranked.
Netdecking happens in all TCG’s. Go to Yugioh Master Duel and you’ll see meta decks everywhere. In Hearthstone is the same. Heck, it happens even in tavern brawl, where there are no leagues or competition. This week’s tavern is full of Embiggen & Patches the Pirate decks and Pogo decks. At least the tavern meta changes every week
But it seems that netdecking is unavoidable in constructed.
Banning netdrcks would only reduce the skill factor in HS.
How do you know they copied it off of someone? I mean, there are correct card choices in decks and incorrect choices. It’s very possible that people made similar or even card for card same decks without checking the internet when the builders are highly skilled.
But what you are asking for is like asking for the other team to not play so you can screw around with the ball in your own end. That’s dumb.
The better answer is you need to build better decks.
This is absolutely true if your goal is winning ranking up etc. But if you are just looking to play a bit, see some different interactions, not see the same old decks, then I can understand the desire to have some way of screening the meta.
One, that is casual game play and there’s a mode for that.
Two, if that’s the goal, then conceding to anything you don’t like both lowers your MMR and allows you to skip the decks/classes you hate.
This is done with the concede button in casual.
Ranked play shouldn’t be changed to help bad decks have more fun. It’s a pvp ladder, not charity.
It was described as a separate mode not ranked. The user experience in casual is bad due to early concedes. Maybe something like this would help.
I’m not advocating for it, I dont play these days and I wouldn’t play it. But I can see that it would have a target audience.
Only way to not go up against netdecks is to form a community/friend group of like-minded people and agree to not net deck as you face each other.
impossible
unles you are talking about a mode with randomized decks
because if we are able to edit our decks …well netdecking is impossible to avoid
Make the mode so you pick 1 card and forced to autofill the rest of your deck. 
Just make it where you can never play the same decklist twice. ever. there’s no ladder to climb so competition is a non factor. when you go to queue it does a check against any time you’ve played that mode before and if you have a perfect match of deck composition it would trigger the same type of error as trying to use a wild deck in standard. Try again but this time change a card, change a lot of cards, its up to you. on a long enough timeline sure someone might run out of unique combinations of cards to allow them to queue again, but with constant releases of new expansions and provided they dont dust everything the moment they get it, then that isnt a realistic problem either. It would breed creativity, force players to dig deep into their collections, encourage players to actually have a collection, promote the purchase of more card packs with irl money probably too. And hey, why not incentivize the mode by rewarding some runestones as a prize. Not a lot, say 5 per 20 wins. For all you f2p zealots it would broaden your scopes a little to play something a little unconventional. Sure you could enter a netdeck, but only once. win or lose, thats it for it, next match you must change a card out, and over and over until it isnt remotely the netdeck anymore. I call it something like “The Only Constant is Change” Mode.
