I never post in forums because I don’t care enough to. That said I love hearthstone and I felt compelled (from frustration) to say that I am bored to tears playing standard ranked. If I ever have to see another rogue after RoS I’ll cut my eyes out. It’s worse than Odd and Even paladin. At this point I don’t even want them to fix the class… just remove it. Obviously I’m joking but Tempo rogues are ludicrous. No one is playing anything else. Apart from the occasional Mech Warrior and Token Druid. But give me 100 of them to 1 Tempo rogue… I’m so so so bored of them and how broken they are. That’s all.

Dont worry. Nerfs will come sooner or later. There’s an elephant in the room, we all know it, even Blizzard cant ignore it anymore. That said, they’re always slow on taking action, but inevitably they will.
I dont think they ignore it at all
Its probably more complicated
After all you have to prepare for what will be next
What rank are you seeing this? No word of a lie i hardly ever play tempo rogues, mostly control warrior and spell/ mech hunter and then khadgar mage.
I’ve maybe played 2 or 3 tempo rogues grinding from rank 20 to 11 this weekend.
5 to 1 is mostly Rogues and Warriors with some Hunters and Mages here and there. From 2 to 1 i had only 2 Rogue matchups which leads me to the specific conclusion:
Sole hard counter of Rogue so far is Warrior. Basically, all Rogues switched to Warrior so they queue against Rogues and reach Legend, which in turn opens up space for Midrange Hunter since Hunter does fairly ok against Warrior, which eventually will push the Meta back to Rogue since Rogue beats Hunter.
Pretty much like rock, paper, scissors the Meta is constantly shifting among 3 classes (Tempo Rogue->Control Warrior->Mech/Midrange Hunter->repeat).
Ofc, thats just my personal observations. I might be wrong, in the long run. My sample is relatively small (~150 games so far).
