Not true at all. I have done amazingly well with Hunter this month. Rank 1 and 2 EU were Hunters.

Pretty much any esport analysis goes for the lowest skill level to try and make it easier for new people to watch. I know the invitational has an advance stream and a newbie stream.

Epics and harrison for elise warrior list from meta snapshot. I've climbed from rank 12 to 10 with this deck but it's so frustrating to use, i feel bad each time i queue against druid, paladin or zoo since i have to deal with their super sticky minions/ brokeback combo, i guess this playstyle isn't for me.
As already mentioned Elise control warrior does really well and most of the rank 5 or higher people on my friend list are grinding with control warrior.

Your list should look something like the ones I linked above. Double bash, double revenge, owl, deathlord are good tech choices to get you through early game. Double Brawl is frustrating for any flood deck if you can get your weapons early.
Elise allows you pressure other control decks in the late game by trading your tech cards for legendaries.
Not worth sitting through these matches to find out. Someone should just post it here so we can talk about how bad it is.

It'll be a Corrupted Belcher.
5mana 5/6 taunt with deathrattle that summons a Corrupted ooze 1/2 taunt for the opponent.
We joked about the corrupted stuff before the release. We all thought there was no way they could do that. Well, guess blizzard got the last laugh

I'd argue that Polluted Hoarder isn't a new card at all, but I don't mind that card.
The cards are fine but it's annoying that they chose to show "corrupted" versions of cards first and not just completely new cards.
Get the forgettable riff-raff out there first and save the cool stuff for last. Pretty standard for marketing with internet hype.

May contain jokes =>
I mean, it's not a particularly original card, but again it is in no way a reprint of Loot Hoarder.

Wow, such an innovative and clever card. What will Blizzard think of next?
Can't even do that in standard lmao.

The new card will be very good in arena and probably will be playable in constructed. I don't know how people can say that it's plain bad.
It's also boring as hell and incredibile unoriginal.

Okay, I've only been playing for a day but Divine Shield as a concept is starting to make me want to drop Hearthstone.
Any good ways to manage that BS?

Just trying to beat the expert practice bots. Playing vs. Paladin as Warrior. By the time we're at 6 mana, the Argent Commanders and Sunwalkers come out, and combined with the argent squires and scarlet crusaders I have a huge problem with board clear since it takes trading 2/3 times to kill a minion.
Toss in the defender secret and the revival secret and it's just frustrating.
It depends on what class you're playing. Mage is typically a great early pick, and the hero power (1 damage ping) lets you deal with divine shields pretty damn well.
Paladin tends to counter Warrior. All those tokens and Divine Shields make it so you have to waste weapon charges on small things or minions that don't die right away, and you waste your tools dealing with those. Mage is a better counter pick.
I'm not sure what cards you have there at your disposal, but Whirlwind is probably a good answer. The whirlwind effect will let you get rid of several Divine Shields at once or deal with several 1 health minions (Silver Hand Recruits). Minions with Deathrattle effects that spawn other minions, or cards like Abomination and Unstable Ghoul can help you deal with those mechanics as well.

Yeah so far I play best with Mage and Warlock, but I'm trying to learn all the classes to start out (and to make the most of the EXP while I get some extra gold)
Although I just bought Naxx and Blackrock so... I guess I'm hooked lol.
Forgot about whirlwind. I keep getting shit draws and don't get my 2/3s until mid game which is frustrating lol.
I know I'm basically a beginner, but I want to try and learn how to play around things rather than go "oh his deck counters mine gg" and give up.
Thanks for the advice, all.
