Is Tempo Warrior the most overrated deck in the game? Holy shit I cannot win with this deck. If I don't get the early armorsmith or fiery win axe exactly when I need it in the early game any kind of aggro deck just rolls right over me.
Only if you are a good player. I have never reached above rank 12. And I do like Hearthstone, I'm just really bad at it.
what's your decklist?
Sjow's original list, the one that ran Varian, which seems to be the standard list.

I've run midrange-type warrior decks before but always had some earlier minions like Dragon Egg and Cruel Taskmaster instead instead of this top-heavy stuff like Ragnaros and Varian/Rafaam. Maybe that's my problem here.
One of my problems seems to be that I've having troubles getting consistent battle rages. I think the lack of a second Acolyte might be hurting me too.
Tempo can get stuck in a rut of getting its board cleared every turn and just falling further and further behind, until its late game threats aren't enough to make the difference.

Knew he was a streamer (edit: wait, is he?). I played him earlier today with my tempo mage and got roflstomped. To be fair, the moment I saw the name I just let defeat set in. Not like there was anything I could do though. He had a weapon up from Turn 2 to Turn 7. Literally impossible to establish a board like that.Sjow's original list, the one that ran Varian, which seems to be the standard list.

I'm not convinced that the deck is even as good as midrange hunter, as much as people are shitting on that deck right now. At least with midrange hunter I have consistent reach and a reliable clock against the opponent.
TLDR druid not dead
The class may not be dead but it is on life support. I never see them anymore on ladder, and I'm not seeing them streamed except gimmick decks with Summoning Stones or Yogg, and I'm not seeing them put up good results in tournaments.
Maybe I'll play some Druid tonight, represent the BEASTS.

It is dragon priest tier.
Not actually that good, but if you want to play the class and don't want to play slow as heck control it will have to do.

It's actually pretty good, I do well with it, better against aggro than against control definitely.
blood to ichor is a great card, take the shield off a squire, use it + waraxe to cleanly deal with a totem golem. all sorts of good stuff you can do.
Luckily there's more to the game outside of tournaments, and yeah it's my point that the kind of deck I'm playing is rarely seen.
Best streamer/Warrior godKnew he was a streamer (edit: wait, is he?). I played him earlier today with my tempo mage and got roflstomped. To be fair, the moment I saw the name I just let defeat set in. Not like there was anything I could do though. He had a weapon up from Turn 2 to Turn 7. Literally impossible to establish a board like that.
It can't be both "not dead" and "rarely seen". Druid isn't a significant presence in the meta. They'll come back--someone will make a good deck or Blizzard will grant them good cards in the next set, but right now the Druid's pulse is weak and thready and the buzzards are circling...
What streamers are worth watching?
depends on what you want.
-chill dude playing arena well with some dumb constructed decks here and there without any ad bullshit or fake persona? watch nl_kripp.
-Want to learn constructed or arena for beginners? trumpsc, kibler (constructed only)
-Want to learn constructed for intermediate players? Strifecro, thijshs
-Want to learn constructed for advanced players? kolento and xixo. they expect you know what you're doing but explain some finer plays and decisions. xixo's stream is very good actually.
-A good player with really dumb and generally fun stream, sometimes educational? Dog and sjow.
- concede decks? Savjz
-Just want to learn rogue? ryzentv, amnesiac, chessdude123.
-Want to see what's going to be possibly a next meta deck in brewing stages? mryagut.
-Want to watch a very rich, retired poker player that overthinks everything in this game to make the best plays and has fun like a child, overall be fun and educaitonal? lifecoach.
-want to learn arena? hafu, shadybunny, or former heartharena guys (merps and the other one).

you won't be learning much from kripp really, it's more about having a good show.

been trying to make a midrange paladin deck, dunno about those pyromancers though.
squire interacts favorably with uldaman keeper, divine strength, rallying blade and argus. having a weapon that comes out a turn earlier than truesilver is something I've found useful in getting the early board advantage and I have a number of shielded minions that I can buff up with it.
A lot of the deck is still in flux but I've played it here and there and it works out mostly okay, could maybe use some more threats to help the control matchup.

not a big fan of selfless hero honestly. Justicar is good against control so you can throw that in if you want. I do like the discover a minion give it +1/1 to help fill out your curve like curator instead of the +1/2 spell

Man I'm terrible with warrior in arena. I think my average is 2 wins.
