Paladin doesn't even function anymore

It’s straight up not a real class. It has no removal, lost all board control/wipe, no minions worth playing, no spells, nothing.

Fix this crap class you crap devs GOD DAMN

Just because you can’t zerg your way to a win doesn’t mean paladin isn’t broken or unable to function. I’ve already come across more than a few versions of mech paladin, Healy paladin, dragon paladin and secret paladin.

All of which have a less then 45% winrate according to HSReplay. Good job!

You mean as opposed to a constant 54% win rate the entire last expansion or two with odd paladin? The meta is early. Give it time to flush out.

Are you actually trying to use HSReplay data when the meta is literally three days old? It’s waaaay too early to say with certainty exactly which classes will be viable in the coming meta, and even then you’d need at least a few weeks’ worth of data to know the winrates of said decks with confidence. Chill, ride it out for a while. People are still experimenting with decks and the meta is still (reasonably) fresh.

Way too early? I think no

Well there is a new Dragon cheat deck Paladins have,

Kripp was suing it last night got it from a viewer.

My Murlocs just ha a Paladin down to 10 health but turn 4 came along and what did the Paladin play?

Yep True Silver Champion the old reliable.

He coined on 2 to play the new death rattle dragon get 2 4/4 dragon.
Then on 3 played oh, the exact same card dr dragon get 2 4/4 dragons.

Then after champion played timeout and the new Cathedral Gargoyle taunt all keeping him a float as needed to get to the GG.

On turn 7 played Consecration and wiped my new board.

With the deck Kripp played there are 2 key cards you play and then it just smokes your opponent like no ones business.

Have faith in the RNG thats the RELIABLE number generator.

Paladins ALWAYS gets Truesilver Champion by turn 4. Consecration, and Blessing of the Kings in the first 5 turns. My Murlocs lost cause all it takes is one bad card out of sync on the curve and a lame Secret Paladin can win.

Nobody can say which class/decks are the best or worst yet. It’s going to take at least a week maybe longer.

I had fun playing a midrange Mech Paladin for a random game tonight.

I’d reckon you dont see people play it because it has to have Kangors an most people won’t craft it, or Tirion.

Equality is fine. If you were one of the people who thinks it being 4 mana is unplayable, well you’re delusional pal.

Stop being biased OP. Just like Hunter, Paladin has had a good run of late. If they cant find something workable, then so be it. Hyena is fine BTW.

Paladin was the best class since Kobolds until Rotation. That’s 16 months at the top, even after multiple nerfs. Unfortunately that means Team 5 was constrained in Raven.

The meta right now is heavily biased to RoS, and to the low hanging fruit, easy to figure out decks. Paladin is not going to be top dog anymore, and it’s going to take time to figure out a good build without Vinecleaver, Tarim, and Baku.

Paladin is way stronger than stats show. Once people stop playing Immortal Prelate crap he will be 50%+.

Aggro secret paladin feat subject 9 - 58%
Midrange dragon paladin - 56%
Midrange mech paladin - 57%

The optimized decks are doing just fine. There’s a lot of trash being played on paladin.

I’ve been winning games with the meme-iest and dumbest decks I can make.

And you’ve been complaining forever.

Would you even take my results seriously?

I dont?

I didnt get lucky enough to open either dr boom.

Well my Dragon/Control has me at over a 70% win rate. The last 2 days ive gone from 13 to 6 with it.

The thing about Paladin now is that it is a fair deck. Doesn’t do anything overly cheap but not bad either. Just more mid range and control now than it was.

And stop using equality. Shrink ray is better in now from what ive seen at their current mana costs.
