They could also just go ahead and add BG as a new game in the Battlenet client. They call it a mode when its clearly not. In fact some players just exclusively play BGs now.
When Regis, the guy that can get shafted by rng in matches and just laughs about it like a good blizzard customer without the slight complain ACTUALLY complains about this Brawl you know its a bad Brawl
yeah dr boom seems very unnecessary. late game value in wild is ridiculous, some decks just otk u others ping u to death like Reno priest others like turtle mage go infinte turns or freeze u into meterologist to death, theres DK Rexxar for late value, theres maly druid togg druid jades and the more common warlock decks with ways to duplicate their nzoths and DK guldan etc. this deck seems to have its sights on aggro and thats it. which should be enough to climb high of course
the hero portrait unlike all others so far has ZERO new voice lines and doesnt have an unique Hero power design despite the fact that they recorded lines for the solo content AND actually used a new hero power animation. its bewildering
There are also those who actually want to play the game and those who rope you for the first 5 turns watching netflix or doing whatever because they are pampered kids with the attention span of a goldfish.
Sorry, I'll take my sorry self to the salt thread.
Lol I play 2 games at once sometimes while also using my phone...idk whats wrong with me.
But I rope people intentionally when I see that they squelched me.
In my only case of Legend climb attempt (few minutes ago), it was in Wild, which is possibly easier.
But I made it by taking a deck that proved strong to me (Discolock) and tuned it against the meta I was expecting and actually encountering: in Wild it was full of board&weapon Aggro, so I went for Freeze package (3 cards, not just 1), and it worked really well.
So maybe trying to tech against the meta may help. I don't know how to counter Standard higher meta, or if it is possible at all, but the principle should be of some help.
PS: and yes, as og0 suggested, you need the right state of mind: get rid of expectations, you already reached a great result. Anything that comes now from D4 and on should be taken as a gift. Just play at your best and try to laugh at your bad luck when it happens. Legend rank is a side effect.
Trying to counter the meta you find? Admirable, but mistaken.
Each time i do that, like either changing decks or tech some cards in like silence or oozes, those opponents are gone and only appear like 2 times out of 20 when before it was like 8 or more times.
I hear ppl saying this ALL THE TIME, and it really triggers me cause it just feels like they are playing a different game than me. Like for real give me your account so that i can play against the decks that im ready to face.
Like all those streamers and their youtube videos like "pick this deck and farm the X deck" and im like "bro each time i do that those decks become a rarity to face". Like for real whats the secret behind tech or deck countering and actually facing them? cause i dont know what it is.
This is my experience every.. damn.. time...
I'll be playing and running into Pirate warrior every other game (wild) so I tech in a couple of Golakka Crawler. Lo and behold I never see another pirate warrior again. That's just an example, if I never want to see a secret mage ever again I just tech in a Eater of Secrets, that's me never playing Secret mage ever again until the very next game after I take them out!
Exactly. I eventually realise that all u need to do is pick a tier 1 or high tier 2 deck and stick with it. Just a few seasons ago i ran pirate warrior to counter odd dh and quest mage in wild and eventho i eventually face them and got legend the fact is it took me longer than it should cause for the better part of my time those decks were gone.
Next season i just said fuck it and ran reno priest from D5 to legend thinking i was gonna get trashed by quest mage. Funny thing is the very first match was against a quest mage and i was ready to auto concede but eventually i played it my opponent was probably drunk i won and then i reached legend never facing quest mage again with only 6 losses.
Until then i kept facing around 30% quest mages so my meta like everybody keeps saying was very recommended to NOT play reno priest.
I only faced aggro the majority of time so reno priest was the best choice despite everything. If i had heard only the "ooh u have to choose a deck to counter the meta so reno priest is a bad choice" i would never had the easiest run of my life from D5 to Legend.
There is no pocket meta. The matchmaking is rigged depending on type of deck u choose
In my book a control desk needs to have ther gameplan laid out before the match in order to wipe aggro. Gala priest relies to much on randomness.
Highlander mage despite having some tools vs aggro loses to it more times than it should. And its mid to late game value relies again too much on random with stuff like box reno and the big dragon i cant remember the name that gives u a free spell cast.
Thats why pre nerf boom hero warrior was a true control deck despite the little rng on its hero power. Warlock with its reno versions or the guldan one when it was standard. Reno priest takes the cake now cause how it staves off aggro and has a pre determined late game win con
How is Galakrond more random than Dr. Boom, Mad Genius? Priest doesn't use Galakrond cards to beat aggro, just the control tools you put in the deck. 90% of the time, I never play Galakrond against an aggro deck unless it's for one final board clear. You use Penace, Breath of the Infinite, and Soul Mirror to control the board, and heal up with all your healing cards.
Galakrond is only there to beat other Control decks, because it gives you infinite value. Also, that's a gameplan. It doesn't matter if Galakrond gives you garbage, the hero power/Invoke still gives value, which is the gameplan of the deck. The hell are you talking about?
Because until the very last nerfs to DH gala priests lost consistently to aggro dh and for the late game win con vs other slow decks they relied on scamming hard their opponent with random steals and chaining random stuff with that epic minion that gets u lyra effect or getting good cards from invokes cause they had those too. How can a rng value be a gameplan tool? Boom might be RNG but it had 4 predetermined hero powers. Gaka priest is a clown fiesta of getting super high rolls or low rolls that lose u the game
Combo decks wont be returning to standard anytime soon. Sorcerer apprentice is being watched for a nerf in case mage can otk. There hasnt been a true control deck in standard since December despite ppl saying that gala priest was one.
Go to wild if u want combo or true control. Ive been playing last season with reno dragon priest and it shits on aggro. An elitist like u should love it
I like how it was just people discussing how aggro wasn't their prefered playstyle and they didn't mind if other people liked playing it, but it wasn't the way they enjoyed playing until this guy came in lmao. But sure we're the elitists lol
Elitist is for those that say im a rogue or shaman main and ppl that plain and simply refuse to play a certain type of deck style. I prefer control myself but i dont restrain my ability to play all types of decks. I want to try out everything the game has to offer. Same for classes. I prefer warlock above all but i dont main the class. In fact ive never hit legend with it.
Other thing that ticks me off is ppl saying playing a certain archetype is easy and brain dead. Aggro may seem like that when u face a heavily favoured matchup. Try the aggro mirrors or beat control decks after they play reno and u will experience the most skill intensive wins u ever had on HS.
2 seasons ago i experienced exactly that with pirate warrior in wild. And it took me a lot of games to reach legend. If it wasnt for farming odd demon hunter and quest mage it wouldnt be possible.
Last season i went with my own version of dragon reno priest tailored to beat only aggro. It was the easiest climb ive had from rank 5 to legend with only 3 losses and they were mirrors while they ran a combo oriented version unlike mine.
You see i went aggro pirate and the next season i played the exact opposite. Why? Cause i play the game to its fullest. Same for standard i played aggro murlocs to gala rogue and highlander mage and hunter and even went with a bit of quest warlock and libram paladin before the new expansion
Yes i prefer control yes i prefer warlock but damned if im restraining my range of playing the game. Dust is the only limit for me.
Sorry I get it now, were not elitists because we play control we're elitists because we dont want to play the way you enjoy playing and were playing the game wrong, because it's not the way you play. Sorry I misunderstood....
Elitism is exactly that. Someone partition themselves into something not following the general thing. Choosing just a particular thing when u can experience the whole is what elitism means. Its not to be taken as a personal offense either which u seem to be taking. I apologize if u somehow find it offensive.

Can you please eloborate why you think Galakrond Priest isn´t a control deck? I also would like to call Highlander Mage a control deck. With the latter being more value orientated and the former closer to a fatigue deck.

Wont be f2p much if you are in the USA. Trump is getting ready to come after Riot Games cause of Tencent relations. Good times
This deck needs an update after scholomance. Seems to be strong with right tech and play tested extensively
They could also just go ahead and add BG as a new game in the Battlenet client. They call it a mode when its clearly not. In fact some players just exclusively play BGs now.

Very intrigued. What genre of games can we expect from these names?
whats the goal of Patches? i just dont udnerstand is it to make brawl better odds?
its a GIF. lets call it by its name.
the hero portrait unlike all others so far has ZERO new voice lines and doesnt have an unique Hero power design despite the fact that they recorded lines for the solo content AND actually used a new hero power animation. its bewildering
Main reason is the HS player base have gonne down. Even in heartpwn the upvotes for decks is way down as well as deck creators.
The game has reached its peak so the hype is lower
You scared me for a second there. I thought it was a change for HS health mechanic. I keep forgetting theres a new game inside HS
Try magic if u have the money. Otherwise i strongly recommend chess. Im serious.
How can u know ppl squelched you
That turtle mage is the nuts. Even when u lose ur opponent also loses (their mind). Winrate wise i believe the druid mountseller one is the best one
Exactly. I eventually realise that all u need to do is pick a tier 1 or high tier 2 deck and stick with it.

Short answer is No. Long answer is Yes
Doesn't matter as long as you had fun kappa
