New decks are not the problem here, the miniset just launched and people will get bored and stop playing these decks soon anyway and turn back to what works best…And what does work best? Dungar druid Highlander warrior and elemental mage, can’t wait for the rotation to see these decks out already, pointless and logic-defying cards in these three decks are the reason this game lost its charm and became a toilet sitting/smoke break game that it is today i am dissapointed.

How many months behind are you on the current meta?

Dungar and elemental mage are the top performers in standard atm, actually, so they aren’t behind the meta.
Well, other thna Highander Warrior… that deck sucks right now.

The meta for 10k (what I’d consider less skewed by bad/experimental early lists) is:
- Dungar Druid
- Weapon Rogue
- Location Warlock
- Battlecruiser Shaman
- Zergs
That’s where the meta has settled, with some variations. Notice the pattern there tho?
This meta is new decks and older decks trying to target them. Dungar druid and weapon rogue are only good because they matchup well against the meta. Elemental mage is just a refined bad lists stomper. Dunno where you got that highlander warrior is good, cause it’s trash. Only hydration warrior is ok because control decks beat zergs and terran.
If zergs were toned down, you’d be crying about things like protoss mage or priest. So yes, new decks are more than ok.

I just wanted to say that Weapon Rogue mirrors have proven to be quite fun
Very strategic and highly explosive

Do you play Hearthstone? If you do you must know that almost nothing can beat those decks

At the moment, barely anything more satisfying than slapping some Zerg DK as weapon rogue

Yep, yep
Boardlocking their measly 9 dmg board and threatening lethal with 16/2 weapon next turn, and then watching them realize they can’t do anything about it
It’s orgasmic.

Mages scrambling to gain armor over and over again, only to get slapped with more attack per turn.
Indeed, orgasmic

Can confirm. Protoss priest is just lying in wait. It’s got some insane late game. You won’t like it when the motherships start showing up and abducting your win rates. They’re loaded with archons, carriers, and Colossi and they don’t play nice at all.

“Do i kill the one 3/3 they play or hit face?” XD
Its a go first or get the high roll hand kind of mirror lets be real
The deck doesnt have tools to disrupt itself

It does, lol
There are stickups with heal and disruption
There are various hacks for cases when you don’t have the curve, such as buffing and waiting (drawing, rather, for stick-ups and +2/+2) or even playing both 3/3-s when you lack weapon buffs
Plenty of 50-50 decisions a-la the one you just sarcastically brought up xD
And I dare to assume that it’s because I see those nuances, I’m yet to be defeated in a mirror (although, I’m still smurfing, got to 1450, plenty to go before top 200)

If you are in the mirror i feel you want them to play the 3/3 to get value off of your dubious purchase while cycling lol. Otherwise the deck has plenty of removal for the one minion.
You are right though, Stick up is probably the difference maker in the matchup considering healing can completely flip the advantage. Healing plus 5 damage face probably ends the game on the spot

99% of the time, but as fate would have it, I literally just lost against Protoss Rogue where I used that exact same card xDDD
Wasn’t a mirror, though, so it doesn’t count
