i only rank shame myself
Ok, here's my match history going from Rank 20 to 15:
(result =1 means that i won that match.. yeah i gotta improve my spreadsheet i know)
Pretty varied meta .. at least until Rank 15.
Also my decks are not exactly Kibler's Evolve Shaman and Water Rogue since i had to replace some missing cards.

WTF people are talking about ranks? It's hearthstone! Ranks barely matter.
Time invested >>>>>>>> Any rank up to 5.
If you spend enough time you are nearly guaranteed to hit any rank. This is a children's card game after all, not exactly rocket science. Unless you are intentionally using a deck that can't win against the decks you're facing. If you have any amount of brainpower you'll end up going up in ranks. Maybe slowly, but its nearly a forgone conclusion with the win streak system. It might require more time than anyone can reasonably spend, but it's possible.
From 5->Legend just requires that on top of all that time you also have some amount of skill at playing the game for long periods.

normally I get annoyed by salty posters but I always enjoy reading your posts. Its been rare I've spoken (or rather posted) to you directly in the various threads I've seen you post in but it's kinda funny cause I've noticed this pattern
I think if I played any game as much as you I'd be super salty too (only game I think I wouldnt get salty at would be a Dark Souls game). If I didn't know it was you I'd assume this was a drive by troll post. But it's a yoshi post. I'm gonna toast to you bro. let the salt flow man its all good. Not trying to troll you or anything. You probably dont remember me but I think I've first noticed ya in Heroes of the Storm over a year ago lol
edit- Thanks bro I was kinda of having a slightly rough day but your post brought an instant smile to my face

I've been playing this weird water/stealth rogue deck I found on reddit. hit rank 11 other night before I ran out of time.
Idk I just don't have much passion to grind ladder. I usually park at 15 cause the rewards are not really much better unless you grind to rank 5. and I don't have time for that since I barely play a little every 3 days and when I do play I have to finish these quests
(Granted, I play both Wild/Standard in tandem. I am often the same rank on both ladders idk why I punish myself like this lol I should drop Wild but I love Belchers and Duplicate)
what deck you playing? I've only gotten BM'ed by a Dragon Priest back when I was stomping folks with Pirate Warrior pre-nerf. that silly dragon priest probably could've won if he actually played the game
and oh yeah got BM'ed in a Wild casual game once by some awful mage cause I was on a Shaman.
I tell ya man Hearthstone community be discriminating

Jade Druid, everybody in here and on reddit made it seem so cool so I thought I'd play more of it.
Ah I was guessing either Jade Druid / Shaman / Pirate Warrior. oh yeah jade druid triggers me so but I know they doing God's work keeping Control Warriors down and crying rivers on reddit. so I love those guys. I greet them everytime even if I'm on my reno mage and I know I'm gonna get creamed (most of my reno mage variants just way too slow)

Control Warrior wouldn't be be played if Jade Druid didn't exist anyway. It loses to the majority of what's on ladder right now. Control Warrior is essentially dead.

Good riddance.
Man sometimes I see Control Warriors on Hearthstone tournaments. Man Control Warrior mirrors are the worse. just makes Hearthstone look like a boring game to play when you see people just 'tank up' for 15+ mins waiting to see which guy goes into fatigue first. just plain awful ;(
edit- lol I think even Frodan complained the last time I saw that crap

I don't know which one I hate the most. Losing in a 5 minutes game against a pirate warrior or a 40 minutes against control warrior.

Yeah if you're gonna play detestable decks at least have the decency to end it quickly.
just when I was triggered to the max after getting stomped by a bunch of jade druids on my Rogue in Standard something wonderful finally happens
I switched to my old burgle rogue deck and hop into Wild. I go up against a Dragon Priest and just focus on burgling everything. I get two prophet valens and some healing spells. Grinning to my self, I RNGed myself into a smashing win
replay but it goes just like I said
edit- urgh I could've killed him a turn sooner. i blame my lack of knowledge with Prophet Velen

my plan is to play a game while taking a piss. I'd need to have diarrhea for a match against CW, I do not want diarrhea.

That's the issue though, you don't know that you've definitely lost against CW. So you keep going, trading resources, keeping them at a life you could still finish them off if you just draw the right cards. Then comes the fatigue you've exhausted your deck and all you're left with is having wasted 20 minutes.
this bullshit self-righteous attitude is pretty much what i've come to expect from the hearthstone community.
nah its just him having too much pride for some reason and assuming we're all dumb aggro players
atm I'm goofing off on my freeze mage (w/Malygos) which had bad chances against CW. But he cant understand that

Freeze Mage, the scummiest deck in Hearthstone history, complaining about Control Warrior lol.

Really? Patron Warrior is super good in Wild.
I've been here since wotg and even I can name much nastier decks but m'okay
Yoshichan
And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I have the most important exam of my life this friday and I've had it extremely rough the past few weeks. This made me smile, and I feel like I really needed that. So thanks man, thanks a lot.

Never played Freeze Mage, CW is the worst. Freeze Mage has the quality to win quickly when they are winning.
At Karazhan meta I remember there is stat that show average turn played before win
Mid shaman number one deck at that moment is showed averaging 8 turn iirc and control warrior is 10 turn
Is 10 turn or just 2 turn more behind midrange deck average really too much for some of you
God..
Hearthstone will in much better meta if in average there is 10 turn each game

I would be happier with 12.

The meta back then was universally hated not sure what point you're trying to make here.
I disagree, 10 turns shouldn't be the norm. 8 sounds about right. Not to mention 2 turns on average won't mean you won't end up playing for half an hour against CW and that Brawl is not a stupid RNG card.
It's crazy that Patches was exactly as broken as I thought it was. My initial instincts said that you could play Patches in your deck if you had as little as two pirates in your deck. It took us several months to get there but now I'm now starting to see competitive decklists where this is happening. For example, the /r/Wildhearthstone tier list is showcasing an Egg Druid list that runs Patches with two Bloodsail Corsairs in it. Friggin' Bloodsail Corsair! One of the least played pirates! But Patches enables them!
Well kazookus isn't competitive right now, is it? And that seems suspect to me, given the stats we've seen on how much decks suffer whenever they draw Patches. You probably have something like a 40-45% chance to draw Patches before your Corsair in a deck like that.

So they finally changed up this tavern brawl.
Edit:
And you get a free Un'goro pack.

There is anti aggro renolock that savjs and fibonaci run that use patches with just corsair too
Yeah, China got this brawl last week because there was something stopping them from running the heroic brawl last week. Guess they're just swapping them.
