If you have problem with Rafaam decks use Dirty Rat.

My feelings for it may be different if not for them all getting their double-7/7 tank Rafaam out on turn four LITERALLY EVERY single match, no exception

knowing they have absolutely nothing to make that consistent or reliable, I think it’s safe to say you’re completely overreacting

It’s literally one of the worst decks on ladder right now. If anything it will get buffed.

Long as you kill a Rafaam in hand or deck, it’s child’s play, even dragging one out just negates their main wincon

that’s nu-hearthstone for you, if you’re playing your own deck without tech cards i don’t think you can beat rafaam, noninteractive strong deck with a ticking time win.
its either tune your deck into higher tier, or put in tech cards.

I think the devs heard you haha. Unfortunately it looks like they got the wrong message..

I gave the deck a try because I scored the legendary in a pack pull. I can tell you right now the deck is very easily beaten. I dont know how others are able to do it but I can rarely get ANY of my rafaams out onto the board before like turn 5 or later. (I hold the deathrattle one until I have the reborn giving minion to play first). But the deck in general loses by like round 7 or 9 usually.

Now that it’s been buffed try building the the deck with more survivability and less tech

Tried Refaam with dark gift and summon a beast with life steal variants. Both stink despite having plenty of minions to counter dirty rat. Every game was insanely unlucky . I watch Pizza hearthstone on twitch when he plays warrior and he struggles to get a good turn/combo often times. Meanwhile my opponent casually has time warp + some other broken card(s) after the quest.
The biggest problem is that it’s 40 cards. You can put whatever you want in the deck, survivability, tech, minions… The problem is that it isn’t consistent due to having 40 cards in the deck. Every game is a jigsaw puzzle and never a clear set of direction on how to pilot the deck.
I’m vsing mage 24/7 and I get OTK’d by turn 9-11. I try to get rat, through temp discover or drawing. None. Guess I lose.
Have to wait for miniset support or maybe even rotation. Too many awful decks that abuse old cards that are giga broken and consistent.

Because you still only get a 30 card deck, technically 29 as rafaam takes a slot, and the extra cards are forcibly added, you don’t get to choose them like with renethal

Just stop. One stupid rat kills this deck and let us not forget the STD decks that are the protoss.
Edit: How bout a thief rouge or priest who wins with your cards and then hits face for 23+OTK? Thief decks are almost as bad or worse than thoughtless zug zug aggro.

My protoss deck loses every fight against Rafaan. I beat most everyone else. Ive never once beaten a Rafaan. They draw perfectly every game. Nothing I can do to stop it. Its bull. Deck is OP requires no skill to play. Can’t stand those players, and that deck needs to go away. Utterly unfair.
