Any other good standard decks with the unnerfed cards? Feels like it's time for a last blast on some off meta galakrond and highlander decks. I threw together a galakrond quest shaman and it felt reasonable.

Highlander Galakrond Quest Shaman is the way to go, really.

Same here, most of the time. But there are a few decks that are irritating to play agaisnt, whether I win or lose. Mainly wild mill decks and resurrect priest decks, plus a few other custom ones. In general though, most games are fun.

I don't wanna scare you away from the game nor tempt you to the dark side but playing against Res Priest always sucks.

Why are there so many goddamn Mill Rogues in wild? I just want to play my gently caress around Yogg deck and not be killed by drawing 30 fatigue. I mean, I am fine with being killed by 30 fatigue, but it's MY Yogg that's gonna kill me with 30 fatigue. I don't actually care if they keep my hand full and burn half my deck. It's just that end part where I don't even get to play out what's left in my hand because they had 27 bounces for their murloc. Why are there so many godamn bounces even?

I think it's just a "cheap" deck to assemble that works pretty well.

Turns out Pen Flinger is still busted, who would’ve thought. It’s especially bad with the new Rogue card that draws every time you play a Battlecry/combo minion. The Rogue decks aren’t optimized yet but once they are Miracle Rogue will be cancer.

I only played one game of Casual and used Prime Warlock and they conceded on turn 3 and then rage added me to yell at me for playing a good deck in Casual and I didn't have the heart to tell them that you can play Wild decks in Casual too and they were definitely going to encounter much worse things.

I pulled one off HSReplay that had a Knife Vendor and 2 copies of Rally! which didn't actually work very well, too slow. Pulled those out and added Kazakus and more secrets. Conviction has closed out most of my games, it's unfairly good when it hits 5 mana. Here's my list:

edit: I have Smythe and tried him but he's also too slow imo. Don't have the murloc prime

Thanks! Conviction is super super good. I've won most my of games with it as well. Smythe I can probably drop from my list for the second Goody. I was never too happy with him even though he would occasionally get me bodies on the board for Conviction.

If I'm a dirty net-decker and I only plan to play standard, would it make sense for me to dust all of my older sets? I have some cards from Goblins vs Gnomes, The Grand Tournament and Whispers of the Old Gods that I would love to get rid of and get some dust to build some other net-decks. I only noticed I had these cards when I was dusting my gold cards that I don't use. Also noticed that I have a bunch of Legacy cards, which used to be Core, I'm assuming I can dust these bad boys as well?

I was you about 7 sets ago before I learned that the real fun is in Wild and regretted dusting all my old stuff. Evaluate and dust on a card by card basis is the smart way to go. You can trim probably 2/3 to 3/4 of them but if you blindly dust them all you might look back and regret it.

If they have to nerf paladin (and let's face it, they probably do) I legit think one of the cards to hit might be crabrider? Like, a 1/4 windfury rush is just kind of obscene in how well it carries buffs, and making it a 1/3 keeps the ceiling, while both making it harder to get value trades with, and easier to remove.
Hand of Adal could also reasonably be hit, probably making it +1/+2?

Hitting the Crabrider would hurt non-Paladin decks. I think making "Oh My Yogg!" cost 2 instead of 1 would disrupt the deck enough to pull it down to earth.

Aaaaargh I am so loving salty right now!

I started tonight as Silver 3 and things were going well enough that I was feeling good, soon I was at silver 1 and thinking hey I could get to gold tonight!

Nope.

3 times I was at promotion match and either through the decks I faced or just bad card draw I lost. Aggro DH, Secret Paladin and a Face Hunter. Then I went on tilt and made the mistake of saying that I'd either hit Gold or Silver 2. Well, five back and forth games later and an aggro Shaman knocked me down to Silver 2. I logged off at that point.

Probably seems silly to you folks - I've seen some of you say that you hit Legend or Diamond but I'm usually very poor at card games like this and token druid has been a lot of fun to play and done very well for me. Alright whining over I'll have another crack at it this weekend.

I've never made it much into Plat and I've been playing a long time. Just enjoy the game, worrying about winning and losing distracts from having fun.
