The speed at which your opponent can fill an 8x8 board bunch is plain stupid. You either rush them down or die quickly.

Yes the deck is overtuned, because only 1 or 2 other archetypes go head to head with it on win rate.
Or at least archetypes that are popular. But many archetypes have been tried already.
It’s literally the only sane deck in the meta. Everything else tries to scam your opponents for wins.
Location warlock is the only deck that has to fight for board and establish tempo. Is the tempo incredibly fast? Yes. But how else do you survive in a meta with this many broken things if your aren’t hitting for lethal turn 6? That means your game ending threats better be landing turn 5.
If you hate the tempo, then complain to Blizzard about average game length.
I’m at a point where, I normally hate mirrors, but location warlock is literally the only sane deck that doesn’t try to scam a win, so it’s about the only deck I enjoy playing with and against. Even tho mirrors tend to be entirely decided by RNG.
Hint: if you hate location warlock tech in the location destruction minion X2 and target their 1 mana or 4 mana locations. Watch out the 3 mana location summons a 8/8. It’s the single best way to fight with a slower deck vs location warlock.

I do hate the tempo and I absolutely despise fast decks. If it is between either play a fast deck or lose to DH. Ill just keep conceding to DH and try to find matchups I want to play.
At least location warlock mirror matches are fun. The zerg hunter mirror match is so brainless it makes me want to auto concede. Its literally just who gets the best cards in the first 3 turns
The deck is the turn or 2 too quick to get its board down, but it is honest and the least problematic meta deck at the moment.

That’s just subjective nonsense. What for example is a “scam” about a hunter carefully managing deathrattles?
If it kills you fast then it’s overtuned and not a “scam”.
I guess it again boils down to if you win.
It’s a “scam” if it can kill you only.
