Welcome to the Hearthstone realm!
So this season has been the contrary of the last one: I climbed fast from Rank 10 to rank 5 with Tempo Rogue without any important difficulties. I was lucky with Quest Druid (I didn't encounter many of them, and I was lucky in some matches). Now that I achieved my objective, I plan to chill making the dailies, if possible with Pogo Rogue.
What about you?

Rushed to rank 5, doing all kind of weird fun decks. Tree druid, mogu rogue, highlander shaman, big shaman. No intention to go for legend, meta is boring right now imo
Furthermore, BG looks fun
Climbed to 5 using deathrattle rogue again, pretty easily. Then I did some experimenting at rank 5 but stopped, meta is just stupid right now. It's either evolve-shaman (whatever kind, they all run the package), tempo-rogue (yawn), quest-druid(yawn) or aggro-combo-priest(yaaaaaaaawn).
I hate playing against all these highrolly decks (except quest-druid which is fine)... "oh look i got my stupid combo and you don't seem to have the right removal in hand, guess I'll win". I do my dailies and some bg, but thats it.
Sorry it turned into kind of a salt post, but seems that my ladder experience in this meta just comes with salt on top.
Have you got links to those decks? I might have some availability to put in a little time at the end of this month. Be great to to level 10 or so!
Which ones? Many decks have been mentioned!
I played with the Tempo Rogue version from J Alexander: https://hsreplay.net/decks/ppkVEosPo78oXB2NgYqc8f/ But I changed: -1 EVIL Cable Rat +1 Hench-Clan Thug. My WR was about 65% with it, but as I mentioned I was a bit lucky with some matchups.
I mentioned Quest Druid but I only played AGAINST them. You can probably find plenty of versions everywhere.
As for Pogo Rogue... Well, I don't think it's worth to play it on ladder, it's more like a meme deck, but I can upload later, if you are curious. I plan to play it more during the rest of the month, maybe the meta is favorable now (but I don't think so!).
Has anybody tried out Bomb Warrior in the current meta? Played a game with it yesterday for a quest and ran straight into a highlander hunter :-) armor and removal might be good against shaman, priest and rogue and the bombs flat out counter highlander hunter and paladin (also maybe quest druid because of them drawing so much?)... maybe I'll give it an earnest try tonight.
Well, since my last 5 games included 4 Highlander Hunters and one Highlander Paladin, a Bomb Hunter might be a decent fit for the meta.
Actually made it to legend with this version of Evolve Shaman. Not terribly original, but I wanted to use the Thing From Below before it rotates back to Wild.

Played some more games with Bomb Warrior and it seems to be viable. Beat Tempo Rogue, Highlander Hunter, Evolve Shaman. Lost a game to Highlander Mage because of bad draw and a huge misplay (opponent got out Pocket Galaxy and produced a huge swing turn with Alex and Kalecgos. I was stupid enough to run my Brawl into their Counterspell). Really enjoyed the deck :-)
Also: how great is the deathwing hero skin?? Great animation, great voice, great emotes! Easy one of my top 3 favorite skins
from rank 25 to rank 23 so far. My goal is rank 21 and then i'm done for the month
Rank 10 and climbing mostly with Highlander Quest Hunter that I find very enjoyable to play.
So Pogo Rogue is not so bad at rank 5! I mostly encountered slow decks and no shamans. Nice!
