I mean the most quest decks are to strong , and the meta is boring, it bores me, don't know how other people feel about it. But the thing is you can play Aggro decks wich rise above last time, Aggro Druid / Priest and also Hunter but is this fun? Or you decide to join the winners side and play them by you self and this is the problem, there is nothing between this.
The big problem with having mobalytics curated by essentially 2 people is that you can run into issues where personal bias plays a big role into how tier lists are designed.

I'm speaking specifically of thr Poppy Swarm style decks currently listed on the tier list.
They aren't registering on stats meaning they either loose so often you can't find the stats or nobody is playing then for much the same reasons.
The reality is there are much strong Poppy Swarm style decks as soon as you realize you can cut bandlewood.
Only casual Duels games count towards achievement progression. Casual (traditional Hearthstone) ladder however does not unfortunately. Tavern Brawl which is IMO also casual, does not contribute as well. Inconsistencies galore, really weird.
Ah , im so happy right now because i finaly Got the "Broadside!" Achievement where you have to kill your Opponent with the Juggernaut. Have been trying for days to do that. Had it set up like 10 times but most of the time the opponent concedes - but not this time.
My opponent even emoted Well Played and let me finish him off with the Juggernaut - i was so happy and also made a new Online Friend because i added him to say thank you and he was realy nice :)
Also i just wanted to say i realy do not share all the Meta Hate right now - i'm having so much fun playing all different kinds of decks (mostly Quest Warrior because of the Achievement) and i have began the climb with Rat King Hunter and played it to Gold 10 - switched to Quest Warrior and played it to Platinum 8 so far.
Really great type of article and hope to see more in the future. As some ppl have pointed out, epics are even more challenging to get now more so than legendries (due to rewards track and sometimes bundles with 1-2 legendries). There's also the careful consideration on if you should craft a specific epic, lets take Felosophy as an example. The card will rotate in ~7 months along with the rest of the Year of the Phoenix, so crafting any of these cards as a Standard-only player can be a bad idea. It also gets tricky when you need to find a substitute card for those that you're missing, and worst when said missing card has a very specific effect like Felosophy. Really like the Pandaren Importer inclusion coz it narrows the odds down.
TLDR: Great article for anyone missing a few key epic/legendary cards.

Won 3 Pogos in a row with the Cloak of Shadows lol. Always had cards for the lethal, but 2 of them conceded

@Alleria: If only you had Bolner Hammerbeak in your collection, there is an easy exploitable bug which will instantly complete all 3 tiers of that XP achievement. I have put the details in: Achievement Hunting: United in Stormwind edition

You can run Poppy in scouts with 1 cost synergy and its actually very scary when there isn't a lot of wither whail or avalanches
You can run her in demacia so you can take advantage of elite synergy
Like dont get me wrong lulu into fleet feather tracker is strong but thats a one trick ponny and it basically stopped working after a week.

If you had an issue with the first part, you must have entered it wrong. Several folks commenting here and on Discord had no problems with it.

I have in mind that, in the past, casual games contributed to achievement. Now it doesn't seem anymore the case. Am I wrong?
