The collection manager still seems buggy with the reward cards, I'm having to log out and back in to see them show up at all after opening them. (Multiple accounts, happened twice now.)

Nah he was definitely rank 1, I was on when he hit it. I wished him luck on getting legend and jinxed him haha.

He obviously means he won abunch of games in a row to get rank 1, not that he got extra credit for those wins with the winstreak mechanic. Jesus.

You got this Gavin! This month for sure!

You have gotten 3 ranks higher than I ever have so congrats for that at least. I just can't do the grind, especially since the only deck I've really liked is Renolock(IE my best success).

I think my best is rank 8, I usually make sure I hit 10 with a netdeck of some type.

Then I go back to playing decks I like or trying new things, switching between different decks. It drives me nuts to play the same deck over and over again to just grind ranks.

I find most netdecks boring, although I love Renolock, but even after playing it for a while I get bored.

I get bored easily.

It was awful. At one point I think I won 7 in a row with Zoo, I was absolutely carving people up. Then, inexplicably, I started losing every game. It was so bad I was having to tell myself that it was just luck and the game wasn't rigged to keep me out of legend. But seriously, like 4-5 matches in a row my opponent got a god draw and blew me out of the game like he was just playing solitaire. Switched around to a couple other decks and kept losing. Quit when I couldn't take it anymore.

Golds sucked ass too. Golden crackle to complete a playset, third golden silence and a golden anima golem.

I got a golden Holy Champion and Snowchugger, both of which could see play. My epic was Preparation.

The bright side to a new season is I can play goofy shit while ranking up, like velen combo priest. There's no feeling quite like smiting someone for 14.

Don't see how you can't say secret paladin needs a nerf. I'm 10-2 with the deck between yesterday and today and I was rank 4 yesterday so I'm playing in the top 1-2% of players. Both losses were just terrible draws. Maybe the win rate will balance out more the more I play, but a deck shouldn't be anywhere near 80% win rate, much less over.

Eh, honestly secret paladin isn't really overpowered. I think I've said this before, but the real problem with secret paladin is that any idiot can pick up the deck and play it perfectly. It likely will get nerfed, if only because if they don't nerf it the meta will stay #1 secret pally #2 midrange pally until the end of time, but the deck isn't really broken like other meta toppers have been in the past.

MC is strong, probably should have been a Legendary. Probably should be nerfed. But he won't get nerfed and Secret Paladin is not unbeatable. Tempo Storm doesn't even list it as the #1 deck. It's #2 behind Mid-Range Paladin.

Paladin just have the best value minions on curve atm. Once other classes catch up in value it'll start to slide. A perfect curve by any class is nearly unbeatable.

It likely will get nerfed
If Boom avoided the nerf bat, MC most definitely will too. MC doesn't OTK so he's fine (by Blizzard standards)

He's getting nerfed. His mechanic dictates he's always the card to play and he single-handedly wins games. He's counterable, yes, but his play is similar to other nerfed cards in the past where you weren't making any decisions over the course of your games.

Has anyone said that?
At least a few people in this thread, yes.

I've tried mid-range and yes, while you draw/play on curve its nearly unbeatable like many decks. The problem with secret pally is you can still pull out so many games even if you get a crap opening hand so long as you have mc on turn 6. Mid-range I feel is more counterable as opposed to secret pally, which many games it doesn't really matter what you do.

Boom isn't class specific. He is great...No one denies that, but he doesn't skew the meta to a single deck and archetype like MC.

MC would be very easy to fix, but when Blizzard does fix him...I suspect they will simply make him unplayable (And I'm starting to believe they have to fix him...I wasn't so sure before.)

Blizzard's fix will be something like making him destroy all your secrets in play and in your deck.

You guys are dreaming if you think he'll ever get nerfed. Blizzard are so reluctant to change cards. I personally would love to see him nerfed, but it ain't happening bros.
