So, I'm playing Kibler's Highlander DH, finally getting some Demon Hunter wins in. I run into a Shaman, and my mulligan is awful. No cards below 4 mana, although mercifully I had an Illidari Felblade on my leftmost spot. He starts with a Surging Tempest, which is always spooky. I can't respond, so I whack his face and pass.
On his second turn, he coin Lightning Bloomed out Inara Stormcrash. I again had no response, although luckily I drew Chaos Strike to kill the Tempest off. He played Primordial Studies with his one remaining mana on turn 3, and brought me down to 14. Finally, I was able to Felblade his Inara and take back the board.
His next plays were super low-tempo - he Lava Bursted my Felblade, and played a discovered Lady Vashj. Meanwhile, I managed to scrounge my way back to 24 health thanks to Eye Beam, Circus Medic, and Ashtongue Battlelord. I pretty much had the game on lock.
Turn 7 comes around, and he topdecks Vashj Prime. Since I still had an Ashtongue, I traded into it and didn't worry. His turn 8 - Doomhammer, 0-mana Stormstrike, 0-mana Stormstrike, Rockbiter Weapon, 0-mana Lightning Bolt. Those were the only cards in his hand. He bursted me for 25 damage through a Taunt. All because he Discovered a random Lady Vashj and topdecked Vashj Prime on curve. It gave him exactly the cards that would've killed me that turn, because otherwise I would've Zephrysed.
Is it me? Is it? But out of 10 games played this afternoon at and around Gold 2 I've been smacked around by a fucking Tiller Priest 8 times. It's pointless and infuriating to play against that goddamn deck.
I cannot wait for the Android version of MTGA to drop on Thursday. At least I'll have some fun getting hammered by Rogue Decks and Ugin.

I rarely post here, but the Tiller decks really get to my nerves. It's not so much the combo itself but the fact that your turn is skipped if you manage to survive it. Can't stand this bullshit and the nerve of some people who have to BM on top of that.

I love how Warlocks can just slap 1 card into their deck and win any control matchup with literally 0 counterplay whatsoever. Fun. Well Warlocks, go fuck yourselves and have fun digging out all the bombs from your deck as you literally play the green card every turn to draw even more crap.
Mandatory Priest is a cancer class that only uses random crap discovered (optionaly from other players) Please just revert the fucking changes. Much rather die to mind blast than being bored to death by endless removal discoveries. Whoever thought that was not toxic game design needs their head checked.
So I played Hearthstone again after more than a week, and I got welcomed by consecutive games against the new Ramp Paladin, and three consecutive games against the new Token Druid. I was dead by turns 5-6 every time. Talk about a rude welcome. But it's all good since I won five straight after that, so it evened out. 8-)
Seriously though, if those two decks are left unchecked, we might be in for a worse meta than the one ruled by Evolve Shaman once the meta settles down some more. Those decks are somehow even more degenerate than Evolve Shaman, which is crazy. I expect nerfs soon, maybe to High Abbess Alura and Arbor Up.
Can please all you dibshit Secret Mages, Big/Raza Priests and Odd Pallys get out the game? Yeah you cool, you play the best Meta Decks and the best in the world! We get it! Your Emote-Game is strong and your skill is outta this world!
Every day it passes, I'm more and more convinced that people playing top tier decks in casual are just either the party poppers in every fiesta, or just people without confidence to play ranked.
They just don't see joy in anything and just want a win...
I cry a little for them... Then I remember that frustration over them sent me here, and I just don't care.
Why is it that whenever I play again after taking a long break, I always get queued up against my chosen deck's worst matchup?
In this instance, I decide to play Big Warrior and my first three games are against Lifesteal OTK Demon Hunters, which I have no chance of beating with my slow deck. It's like the game is intentionally telling me to quit because it'll just give me misery.
Penflinger. Really that card is so terrible to play against. Not because I lose to it, but because it takes 15 minutes to play it out, one damage at a time.
Why can't priest never have a normal fucking archetype, but does it always have to be the most toxic shit ever. Ress priest or steal priest, all played by absolutely degenerates. Rather face 10 face rogues.
This is the third f..... week in a row in which rerolling a weekly Battlegrounds quest either "Deal x damge" or "Finish top 4" resulted in the other one!
I don't play this mode. I hate it! Don't give me this! Or at least respect my rerolls!
I hate Tickatus so much.
This ain't no place for a hero

Christ.
On the plus side, the very next game a Mage very kindly Devolving Missilesed me into a Forest Warden Omu, letting me play Zai, the Incredible to double Nethrandamus and Dragonqueen Alexstrasza, and then play Nethrandamus on the same turn. So, it's highs and lows tonight.
A man is lying on the street, some punks chopped off his head
I'm the only one who stops to see if he's dead.
Hmm. Turns out he's dead.
... i came here for the same reason

Hearthstone is a fucking shitshow at the moment.
Cocked, locked and ready to rock...

Delete any mind control things from the game. So sick and tired of having my shit stolen.

Fuck priest, use your own damn cards.
Why I usually don't play Arena. 4. Fucking. Legendaries.

I used to love Priest (back in the Dragon priest days) - was my favorite class.
Then they turned it in to a steal, res, generate almost infinite cards class. Or Raza/res priest in Wild (where I play).
I don't play the class anymore and I can't blame people for hating it.
All generalizations are false.

God I love Tickatus; great design, hard to pull off and super interactive.
I most enjoy the times it gets played multiple times! Feelsgreatman!
Anyway, guess it's back to playing Odd Rogue...
It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.

(The Win in TB, Duels and BG quest is okay)
