Statistics show Diamond/Legend ladder is 45% Mage/15% War

around 2/3rds of those mages are playing elemental and the other are big spell mage

only new deck is Elemental Mage, every other high WR deck is an exact copy of a pre-Expansion decklist.

need a big buff patch or an early rotation yo,

edit: the only rogue decklist with a postive WR rn is Mech Rogue… which runs 0 new cards and has less than 2k plays on HSGURU. kill me now

You can take advantage of that. Find on …the stats what counters those mages, and play that.

yes, that’s not the problem

the problem is that outside of ele mage the meta hasn’t actually changed at all and likely won’t until rotation. We already know the nerf canidates are going to be something in ele mage, and quasar. It’s unlikely anything else will be hit, meaning we’re back to PiP Meta until rotation.

I rather face PiP (and maybe Libram) pally again than the braindead ele / bsm stuff. Even reno warrior requires some navigation as you can’t braindeadly slam it on turn 9 (if you draw lucky) on the board and expect to win on the fly (play shaman for this playstyle though).

For clarification they play Brann on turn 6 or if they get an amazing draw 5. If you play Brann on curve you are basically losing the game.

The player populace is boring… theres nothing new there.

Big spell shaman is actually consistent in terms of putting out a big spell on 5 like mage (although not as simple as dropping king tide)
Replicating spore actually isnt that bad in warrior and can be tutored in multiple ways.
Arcwing mage is pretty fun.

Theres obviously quasar/asteroid shaman

The DK/hunter starships arent rank 1 worthy but can hold their own.

There are plenty of new deck options to be utilized.
