that's probably because neither belong in a freeze deck

he was rank 2 or 1 when I was watching him yesterday
HS decktracker isn't on Mac though. Track-O-Bot is the best option for Mac users. (No idea if ferty is or not, just saying.)

I greatly enjoyed the atmosphere at the SC2 tournaments TakeTV organised, always seemed like good fun.
The local audience in the nearby pub was also always fun, appreciative, polite, good-hearted.
Anonymous online chats though... ugh. Truly brings out the worst trolls.
nah I'm on windows and using both, track-o-bot is better for more simple info.
I've thought about making a Xamarin fork of HDT to make a Mac version available, but I'm not familiar enough with the tool yet.
/r/hearthstone has a huge thread on it, so much butthurt and trumpeteers coming out of the woodwork
Control choices in standard:
Warrior: Control Warrior, C'thun Warrior
Shaman: Ancestral/Earth Elemental Shaman (AKA Crusher Shaman)
Rogue: ?
Paladin: N'Zoth Paladin, Healadin, Control Murloc Paladin

Warlock: Renolock
Mage: Reno Mage / Grinder Mage
Priest: N'zoth Priest, C'thun Priest, Control Priest
Considered competitive (tier 2 or higher) on ladder:
C'thun Warrior, Control Warrior, Renolock
Am I missing anything?

Yeah Warrior currently has a viable aggro, tempo, control and combo deck.
As you can see, removing Death's Bite basically destroyed the class as predicted.
Yogg Druid and Hunter are basically control decks too.
Token Druid / aka Yogg Druid is not a control deck. It's a board flood deck. I think there's a difference.
Yogg Hunter I put in the gimmick category next to Renounce Darkness Warlock. Clown Fiesta / RNG take the wheel nonsense. Am I wrong?

Locknload hunter is shit imo.
But yogg druid is incredible. I haven't actually dipped into it myself. It's not a control deck though. It's actually quite aggressive imo, as druid decks always have tended to be, ramping up and pulling off disgusting board spam combos that token druid of classic era would be jealous of with the option of yogg that puts perhaps every other yogg deck to shame in terms of sheer spell count.

Tempo mage doesn't run cabalist's tome. At least, I haven't seen it in a top tier list yet. I've seen some people attempting to make cabalist's tome work in a tempo deck, but frankly they've been really bad showings. Even ethereal conjurer is pretty slow now, which was at best a 1 of to help antonidas have fuel late game.

Play against a friend (or a dummy account).
What Warrior deck do you run?
Warrior is currently the best class in the game. We just need to find you a good list.
Occasionally I struggle doing Warrior quests because the meta is really trying to target warrior and you can run into a bunch of Mid-Range Hunter in a row.

Last thread it was Shaman everywhere, and now it's Warrior everywhere.

fuckin' called it, man
I play them both leave them alone
I saw that the friend thing was going on this week, but that's too much of a hassle in my current state (recovering from surgery and bed ridden all week). That could also explain why I've been playing so poorly, haha.
I don't have some of the heavy hitters for control like Grom or Rag so I've been trying more of the aggro/pirate decks. Anything come to mind that's pretty foolproof just to get wins? Been playing HS since beta but warrior has always been my least favorite and I've gotten next to none of the good warrior epics/legendaries.
Pirate is pretty fool proof.
Do you have a pretty decent collection? Zoolock, Aggro/Midrange Shaman, and Midrange Hunter are all solid value decks that will probably outperform Pirate Warrior. I have only been playing since May but have consistently hit Rank 10 with Zoolock, I am saving my dust for a Cthun or Control Warrior deck but they require a lot of dust or a substantial collection.
Yeah I can make any of those decks pretty easily. My issue is usually just when I get 2 quests that are Win 5 as Warrior and X and feel like it's time to drag out the warrior. Would probably be better off doing the other class though for as poorly as I do on warrior.
Sometimes if ranked isn't going well I switch to casual or tavern brawl to complete a quest. Tried casual yet?

I use the Wild ladder. I'm usually low rank there, so the competition is weak and the wins count towards golden portraits.
...guess I'm trying to play freeze mage for awhile...

Pretty much staples in mage and rogue. Maybe not every conceivable deck.
I honestly think for rogue at least, thalnos being so important more has to do with their low count of quality cards, especially minions. But it's also just because rogue has so many low cost spells as well.
Same thing with mage, except their do have good amounts of quality cards, they just like spell damage enough to run 3x 2 cost spell power minions.
I've barely played Hearthstone since I got into Overwatch. I guess I like shooting virtual people more than I like playing cards?
