Laddered all day as Gearmaster Mechazod and fought against 100% Paladins

I always thought the posts on reddit about the over-abundance on Paladin on ladder were over-exaggerating but whenever I queue up as Gearmaster Mechazod I've been fighting a Paladin EVERY. SINGLE. GAME. Not even exaggerating.

I'm not sure what I can do against them either. It feels like I do my best every game. But Paladin just keeps running over me with OP cards like Blessed Champion, Milhouse Manastorm and Lorewalker Cho. And yes, before you ask, I have been teching in Kill The Lorewalker to deal with Cho. IT DOESN'T FUCKING HELP. He always seems to have Anduin in hand to play t1 and I don't know what I can do against that.

Something this BRAINLESS shouldn't be so successful. I try to play a typical smart control-type game with my deck, using Assassinate and Bombs to control the board and my 95hp to outlast Warrior-style until I have enough Overclock for my burst finisher. He just goes face and murders me with buffed up troggs. I can't stop that.

To be honest, Blizzard? You really fucked up this time. I understand that it's okay for strong decks to exist but not class should be 100% of the ladder. And I'm serious about that, I can give you my data if you want. It's ALWAYS PALADIN. I bet if Patron Warrior was still around this wouldn't be happening. Something has to change.

Needless to say, I will not be pre-ordering the upcoming expansion.
