HsTopDecks has a selection. There's less info about the deck than on HsReplays, but you get to see what some streamers are playing. I like it more than VS, which graphs I find unappealing.
I read from reddit that its possible to get a 3rd party app to track the xp down. But I'm not yet desperate enough that I need a tracker so I can't tell you if this is real or working.
Can comfirm. The Firestone decktracker gives you a notification after every game in your bottom right corner telling you how much XP you gained along with their own achievements.
Even though I don't like the reward system (don't have hard feelings against it either), I'm enjoining the game a lot. I started questing for achievements and duels gave me the perfect game mode for getting a lot done.
In my experience, getting close is useful for the next season. Once you hit D3 is about playing enough games (and having the time to do so).
So, if you have enough time before tomorrow, play games! I take a 2min brake after each match, looking for mistakes and improvements with my game play, and to relax a bit (because getting to legend makes me a little anxious). Specially after a defeat.
The other thing I do is trust the numbers. If I got a 60%wr I know that I need about 12 games to get 3 ranks. I feel more comfortable knowing how many games I need.
I included Zombie Chow, some cheap healers, Emperor Thaurissan and a couple of rez effects in a deck. That's how I got the achievement with priest at diamond 10.
My first game was against a C'Thun Druid that easily racked up tons of armor and beat me, but I got the achievement in the next game when I went up against a Big Priest. I could imagine making a couple of adjustments if you're encountering a ton of Odd Paladin on ladder, but this makes a lot of sense for countering most Wild control decks. No idea what you'd do to make this work if you find yourself against a Control deck in an armor class. It's hard to have enough pressure without compromising the AOE you need for most other decks (and the achievement in general, to ensure there's no opposing board).
"Reduce the cost" cannot apply to a 0-cost card unless you want make it cost -1. In that case Bloodweaver is not reducing the cost of a random card. It's just doing nothing. Anyway it a confirmed bug.
Don´t give up mate! You still got today. You´ve inspired me so I pushed this month too and I´m hovering between D1-D2 two stars. But as you´ve said, if we don´t make it this month, the next is ours :) GL!
Today i'm gonna work :( what deck are you using? Ive never got this far, so this month i climbed platinum all the way without bonus stars So i'm confident with the bonus stars i'll get
Diamond 5 to Legend was so painful, but I wanted to get Legend for once. Now I'm chillin' with wacky decks like Tonk Hunter, Menagerie Warrior, Duel Paladin.
Tonk Hunter is surprisingly good, but you need Secrets, Petting Zoo etc. to survive the early game, and Yogg is good with all these spells. I've tried a version heavy with Deathrattles, but it's usually slow.
I've tried to complete Horrendous Growth achievement (15 or more attack). I put 2 copies to Secret Mage. It seemed like a good idea due to all those 3+ cost cards. In the end, I played them as 15/15 and 14/14 lol. I feel like this card has a great potential in the right deck.
Yes, it's one of the things people don't think about/mention/understand is that we won't finish this rewards track until almost the next expansion. Don't get me wrong, I don't like it, I don't like the slow progression. I don't like not being able to earn, say, 150 gold quick for an Arena run or a pack or whatever. I just wanted the info. I'm fascinated by the numbers, but won't be installing a 3rd party app to track them.
There's a lot of opportunity for improvement, hopefully it happens. It'd be a shame if it didn't. Resource management is kind of a fun part of the game, but if there are no resources, there isn't anything to manage.
I only opened about 40 packs so trying to make a full DMF deck is a challenge. I can see why it's easier to stick with a meta deck you've already invested in and swapping a few new cards. If Blizzard had given away one Old God for free at the beginning of the expansions, you would definitely see far more experimentation.

This is probably a pipe dream, but I hope they change Il'gynoth. And I mean, change Il'gynoth, to like deal the damage to minions or something. Demon Hunter did not need a card that literally doubles their already insane burst damage.
At the very least, I expect Bladed Lady to get nerfed. That card is ridiculous.
Hey, i really loved your PFP I played a lot of Awesomenauts in 2013
Sorry guys, i didnt get legend. My record was Diamon 1, 1 star 2 times and then i i lost back to rank 3. Thanks for all the responses and advices. Maybe this month i can get it!!!!
This is my take on "No Pathetic Cards", kill opponent with C'Thun from full health. The idea is to cycle through the deck, playing spells that counter the opponents game (lots of aoe). Once C'Thun is in your deck, play Jepetto. You will get a 1mana C'Thun. Next turn you have 9 mana to deal with the opponents board and heal him, if need be, with witches brew. Worked for me on the 3rd try. Have fun!
Reach level 25, gets fkn Deck of Chaos as random legendary. Anyone have a decklist for me?
EDIT: Checked out hsreplay for inspiration. This magnificent beast of card is played in 0,4% of decks and has a deck winrate of 37,8%. Zero decks to check out. I feel even worse now. But at least my copies of Fel Lord Betrug and Archwitch Willow have some company now.
Where can I find a list of the top ladder decks?

There's a tweet with Bunnyhoppor with his mathematical analysis on the topic. He even has a spreadsheet to share values. I think he posts an interesting approach https://twitter.com/Bunnyhoppor/status/1333088213083283460

The CerberusBT deck for No Pathetic Cards worked like a charm for me (I made two minor changes - swapped one Plague of Murlocs for Maelstrom Portal because I only had one copy, and swapped one Kobold Stickyfinger for Harrison Jones).

They really shouldn't have made casual less exp. The fact that aggro decks can't farm gold anymore should be enough to make casual less aggro.

[Duels] C'Thun Spell Priest (Darkmoon Faire)
Best I got with this is 4 wins, but that might be because priests don't get enough love among all these aggro builds. Thanks for sharing!
