I wonder…
When people see some deck that they cant win …they start to say This is unbalanced - nerf this Blizzard.
But they ever try to change deck by adding cards witch can avoid the problem? 60% of this forum if about Hunter is bad, Rogue is bad, all clacces are bad.
I doubt Blizzard can nerf cards doing balance, when people dont try to combit difficult situation they have.
Its just unbalance nerfs, cause after them you will find another deck to complain for.
You cant tech out of RNG and matchmaking captain genius pants. A tech card only works when you draw it at the right time against the right deck. Stop netdecking your forum posts bro. Your parroting tired old arguments.

Lol and this thread is just as bad as people who call any deck they can’t win against bad.
circular logic vs circular logic doesn’t work well.
I change the cards in my deck all the time, trying to strike the right balance. The issue isn’t “I can’t win” the issue is X class has everything. Specifically hunter. Which is a problem and not healthy. But this is what happens when the devs focus outcomes around OTK rather than the long game.
As for Rogue. Its not even the class (apart from the 2 mana spark bots card), its the neutral cards both rogue and paladin get to use and combo with their class cards that make their mech decks so disgusting, same with Mech mage. Though mech mage is a much lower tempo.
When you lose by turn 5 it’s unbalanced. Doesn’t take a Mensa member to realize that.

Ya can
Technically right, but overall, a bad player’s view of how card games work.

The problem is compounding power creep, not one card, the best hunter deck right now has no bad cards, as in 0, all cards have insane curve to value to power, so you can’t tech against 30 cards

Here’s my hot take. Hunter does have a good deck and was a top performer in the tournament over the weekend.
However, I will go the opposite direction of this thread and say I wish each class had as well-rounded a deck as Hunter does. Early, mid and late game with optional Wincons. That’s the type a deck I like, and it would be great if this was the case for each player on either side of the board no matter the class.
I recognize the biggest issue, or one of them, would be class identity, but I think that’s no longer the dev’s concern.

people complain about every class/meta , this time forum meta seems balanced and fun to watch that one day there is someone that say plagues are unbalanced and the day after some one agains steamcleaner becouse break plague meta.
There was a week of Sif otk with +7 spell dmg … 3 spells 30dmg combo but it passed and people forgot.
Shaman was the problem before master tour , but now that it don’t performed well for rng or becouse pro player know how to use “Speaker Stomper” a card that no one was using weeks before … the problem is the hunter.
But in my opinion Blizzard can do a bit more , in the past i suggested “dirty rat” should be core , and it happened … but there are multiple tech cards that usually are bad that need to be permantly in core.
Like new card like “Algalon the Observer” needs “Mischief maker” (swap top card of deck with opponent) to be core and mess OTK a bit more …
So yeah for me they need to focus more on metacounter tech cards that are bad when you don’t find the correct opponent.
examples …
Remove a spell from you opponent deck
Remove a minion from graveyard ( agains resummon )
Silence minions in hand/deck or more like a stat reset
Oh man, people want exile from graveyard effects. Next you are gonna wants instant speed cards.
How dirty rat can destory a weak deck ?? if the deck has no single card sinergy dirty rat usualy do nothing …
And if you use dirty rat when not needed is possible you give advantage to the opponent.
Here’s a balance change blizzard, hire me, I can do this too…
Hidden Meaning: Secret, At the start of your turn: If the opponent ended their turn with 0 mana, summon a 3-cost minion.
The fact that this insert mass amount of swear words secret gets to attack it just beyond me…

main issue I see with huntard is there is no intensive for them to trade anything! everything they do is about making the opponent not interact and go face, while they themselves don’t interact with the board (with the exception of the 3/1 rush wildseed and mukla and hound but that version is falling off a bit now even surprisingly !)
it creates very one sided games.
that is also my main gripe about curselock, they just play, 3 mana 3/4 give a curse, deal 4 give a curse, aoe board give a curse, that is enough to shutdown most classes due to the ramping damage, mills and anti tempo from dropping the cards

I agree, nerf all win cons, buff dirty rat.
…what are we talking about again?
So does Cat Trick. This isn’t new, or unusual. Heck, just about every secret that generates a minion, the minion gets to attack “immediately”, if it survives. The only thing different about Hidden Meaning is that you don’t have a chance to kill the minion after triggering the secret.
Only class idenity thye keep to is no rogue (class) heals/taunts.
and no taunt on mage cards (arcane defenders from lich king being like 2nd mage card ever that has taunt on the card text somwhere)
A lot of people feel adamantly about the idea of making their own choices and still having a chance in card games, and in life in general. When a player goes through an experience in a card game where they are forced to choose another card just to counter 1 other card, or 1 other arch-type, of which there are many, they feel that they are limiting their own freedom and shrinking their own life down into a little box somehow of some kind.
Players want to feel free in their creative design.
Trying other cards helps, but feeling forced to play very specific cards as “staples only in this 1 case” cards feels more-so defeating of that freedom and style they wish to represent and a forced detriment they have to take on to represent a “meta” or “counter style” like they are always looking out for those “just in case” scenarios and can never truly relax and just enjoy a simple game.
I hope this helps.
