This game has become a complete joke, i cant even win 1 game let alone 5 for the monthly card back with these stupid overpowered decks, good luck going against someone who pops a Cariel, half damage, an unbreakable weapon and buff minions 4+4+. And dont even get me started on Mages and Warlocks. Even the rogues and druid decks are becoming insane.
For a casual player like me or a newbie just starting this would severely put me off with the amount of pay to win you need. How is a newbie or casual meant to afford a quest card or a hero card??
They need removing or at the very least match the pay to win decks with other pay to win decks, not people at rank 25 chicken just starting out its a complete and utter mess.
Been playing since around Beta time and im finally on the verge of uninstalling if i cant even get 5 wins for a stupid card back.
Standard game btw, dont care for Wild or Classic.

If you played since beta and only play standard you should have cards for meta decks for atleast 2 classes. This is a clear “you” problem.

I will repeat myself as you clearly cannot read.
I
Play
Casual.
What part of that do you not understand?
If you were a newer player I’d be more descriptive but:
If your losing to Cariel, do what everyone else has and tech in weapon removal

If you’re new, you get enough stuff to build a deck (issue is an actually new player wouldn’t know what they were doing so would waste resources but that’s a different issue).
If you do the dailies you get enough per expansion to easily get yourself a deck. If you’re way more casual than that then your issue is literally: “I don’t put in any time or money into the game, how comes I don’t have everything!!!”
I play casual aswell, I’m f2p, have played less time than you and can easily play meta decks on 2-3 classes. Learn to manage resources and get better at the game, stop complaining.
Me personnaly - these last 6 month I am legend at the end of the month - this month it has been 10 days I trying to go pass level 3 diamond - on a average of 15 game a day only 2 - 3 goes my way - I feel that Blizzard is targetting some other people then me. I do aslo feel that the game is based on your frustration the more you loose the more you play - I say enought ! I did enjoy the game this last 10 years but this new mini set is not working well for me !
I am desinstalling the game ! Ciao Hearstone !
Thank you for the discussion - I needed somewhere to write it down ;-p

There’s hardly any incentive to go higher than Diamond 5 in any given season after the first time you’ve reached Legend.
There’s nothing lucrative about reaching the highest rank other than the nifty orange gem in your chest. There’s almost no difference between the rewards you get in Diamond 5 and Legend.
Remember when the difference was only 45 dust? 
I literally only do the 5 wins for the cardback now, i used to do lots and had passion for the game but as time has gone on the game has just got worse and worse with stupid decks you cant counter, i dont even bother dusting my spare cards or trying to make a suitable deck its just not worth it anymore, i will always be beaten by a no life deck that has paid ÂŁ5 million for his super duper uber OP deck.
I don’t care for Standard either now, anyway. It’s too fast.
I play Wild with my Questline Casino Mage deck.
I tend to reach Platinum 10 with it, sometimes higher. Ranking is not improtant to me. I’ve already reached Legend many times. The thrill to be on the top of the ladder has abated.
I play Battlegrounds, Arena, make achievement decks and play my favorite Tavern Brawls, and do my dailies. That’s good enough for me. There’s still a lot of enjoyment in the game, without having to stay super competitive or on top of everything.

Heads up ! I did desinstall the game then just re-installed yesterday with the new patch.
Don’t know what to think really - for 10 days I spent hours loosing game after game and this morning I went from diamond 5 to Legend in 5 hours with the same Rogue Deck …
I am happy because I did it but i don’t know what to think. Do Blizzard purpously make it more difficult to some accounts ? not sure …
Anyway I am happy I ll be back next month for the same challenge.
I like to apply Occam’s Razor to such questions.
Ask yourself how much effort it would be for Blizzard to code that. Then ask yourself what benefit it would bring. Compare those two and if you then still believe that Blizzard targets some accounts then I cannot help you.
For me, the far more likely explanation is a combination of (1) bad luck last week, good luck this week; (2) you getting better at piloting the deck; and (3) some of the decks that counter your deck being nerfed last Thursday.

has probs nothing to do with your reinstal, just luck your opponent doesn’t have the cards and apparently you do. Also think rog deck is too strong in early game.
