Standard is complete crap

So being critical about how a lot of classes or archetypes are heavily reliant on scam tactics is a sign of bitterness and not poor design? Hence your ad hominem attack, which I find to be revealing.

You seem a little bitter about other players discussing scam decks as a negative aspect of Standard. Is that because your favorite deck is a scam deck? Are you playing Reno Druid or some other Reno scam deck?

Do you read the threads where other players complain about Reno with reasons why it should be nerfed or removed from Standard? I noticed that you posted in one such thread:

Reno simply is a problem because:

1). Reno is too impactful, despite its highlander deck construction restrains, for a neutral card.

Reno completely wipes only the opponent’s board, while preventing the opponent from responding with a large-board-swing play on their next turn, which means it unfairly reduces counter-play and player agency, while also providing an improved hero power and 5 armor. Reno is one the more broken cards in the meta.

2). Highlander decks like Reno can no longer be countered with tech that puts duplicate cards into the highlander deck. Again, a design change that reduces possible counter-play.

3). Reno can be copied and used multiple times in a match.

4). Other cards have been designed which help undermine the highlander limitations of only having access single copy of a card in the deck, like E.T.C., etc… This impacts the balance of cards like Reno. Reno is poorly balanced.

5). Reno destroys more than just minions. Why should it be that efficient along everything else the card does! But one thing Reno does not destroy is Putrified Dragon Nest. How convenient for Highlander Druid.

I think it’s time for Reno to get another nerf to shake up the meta. Reno should probably completely destroy both players’ boards.

Nerfing Reno would be a profitable move on Blizzard’s part, because it would promote players to craft new decks to try out other things. They should nerf Reno soon to give the pros time to prepare for Masters Tour Winter Championship.
