The "Arena" is the best feature of the game. You spend gold or $(1.99 I think?) to play a draft format, so it's a pretty level playing field there because everyone builds a deck out of random cards.

Arena sucks. Mages and Rogues rule and everyone else gets shafted. Also they need more cards. Specifically Pirate cards. I can't make an effective Pirate deck with what they provided yet people can Murlock faceroll wins all day errday.

The only class I see really struggling in Arena currently is hunters, because the beast cards they need to make certain things work aren't strong on they're own, and they're much weaker without it.

So far my best runs since the recent mage nerf have been on Shaman.

The 12-1 run I posted above was a shammy deck.

Hunters are the new meta and it's utter bs. Unleash the Hounds has made everyone and their mother roll a Hunter to lolfaceroll gg wins with no effort. It's really bs. I liked Shaman except I think the Overload concept is broken and has no effect on the class as intended.

I have not played. But my buddy plays hunter. Says he can beat anyone before the opponents get full mana? Is that what you are talking about.

I'm playing the "fair match" and I've not payed for anything.

I think I'm 4-28 IIRC.

Most these people are WOW people that are use to paying for playing. There's no way these people my level have unlocked the cards they're playing...

Yes. You get 10 turns to get maximum amount of mana crystals, but a Hunter essentially punishes you for playing 3 or more minions but if you play 2 minions they have a 4 mana cost card that hits 2 minions for 4 damage each which takes out almost everything worth anything. Not to mention traps and Deadly shot which destroys a random minion. If you play 3 minions Unleash the Hounds comes in and annihilates you and your minions. Essentially they rush your health down to 0 while effectively ignoring what you have on the board or taking it out in the next turn efficiently. You won't make it to turn 10 against a Hunter. You may have 6 turns before you lose. And everyone is playing this class with the same deck and pwning errbody.

I'm waiting for the new adventure mode they are coming out with. Going to be grinding Naxxramas. Lololol this will be awesome.
