I'm finding mage ever increasingly frustrating to play against. If you're not playing an aggressive deck they get so much value from tome and its frustrating not knowing what the fuck they could possibly play or have in hand due to babbling book and tome. Mage secrets were already horrible to play around and now you literally have to worry about playing around all of them. Lost a game w/ n'zoth paladin this morning because a mage polymorphed my tirion. Normally it is to be expected, but it was his third polymorph.

Dragon Paladin seems very good vs. any control decks. I'm loving the aldor + bookwyrm on huge minions and brann + netherspite historian for your own huge minions or brann + ivory knight for great heal and extra spells. I've been loving it so far, climbed from 16-7 with a 70% wr so far.

My experience too. Great deck and holds its own against most aggro with a little luck on draws of which you have a ton. First deck in a while I've been enjoying. Early game weak of course but I just hold most decent 4 drops i.e. champ, guardian, consecrate.

so.. in arena, playing against a druid
t4: coins out stranglethorn tiger
t5: druid of the fang (7/7), attacks with stranglethorn
t6: Menagerie warden, copying 7/7. (I'm still in it though! killed the first 7/7 and tiger)
t7: menagerie warden, copying newer 7/7. I'm still not out of it though!
t8: Has 7/7, 7/5, 5/5 left. I'm at 29 life. Casts Savage roar and Feral Rage. Swings for 29. :-/
Fucking constructed beast druid deck in arena.
One of the more ridiculous sequences I've seen not involving RNG in a while.

It's funny that I posted this, because Savjz is using damn near card for card the deck the list I was thinking about trying. I think it's different in that -1x Moonglade and Rag for Thalnos and Elise

I thought this too because I got nothing but 40g quests for 3 days. Then I got the 7 win 100g one today...

Just played a 30m fatigue game against a prince paladin who also got two additional cards from ysera and I still won somehow? Not sure how someone with a 7 card advantage loses, but it may have given me the idea for a concede reno/prince paladin.

Ok so I've played a bit now. All classes to 10. Did Arena a few times, did all of League on normal and the class challenges. All of Blackrock on normal and the class challenges. Bought about 15 decks of Standard and whatever that other one is Old Gods or something.
Also at level 20 in Ranked play.
So next move is... ? Get to 20 on one character I know but then... Do Heroic levels? Buy Karazhan? Play more ranked? Play more Arena?

Pretty much play more ranked or arena, whichever you prefer. Used to recommend arena but it's a LOT more brutal now than it used to be. Honestly there's plenty of "good enough" decks for ranked now that are cheap/free and you already have 2 adventures of cards so you may be fine for ranked.

Heroics don't gain you anything except a Card Back - meaningless.
More ranked will gain you gold (every 3 wins is 10 gold) also every 5 "ranks" increases your reward at the end of the one-month season.
Arena is good if you can average 3+ wins, but it requires an entirely different skill. Focuses more on deck building and tempo play, also eats up your gold but if you get 3+ wins it's a positive.
Ranked resets every month. Most people get to rank 5 then go casual. At rank 5 your reward is 3 goldens (1 being an epic).
Epics are very important and expensive to obtain so if you can hone your skills to get that guaranteed Epic every month you'll be in good shape.
Getting past 5 requires a lot more commitment and isn't really worth except for bragging rights or if you plan to try for Tourneys and crap.
Getting 5 might be a big challenge at first, especially with limited collection. Make a goal to better yourself 5 ranks each month...
So atm you're 20... try for rank 15, then 10, then 5... then you can chill.

Thanks guys. I'll try ranked i guess. Looks like at least to 15 is a good thing to do. Although maybe I'll mix it up. In ranked even at my level the cards people are playing are nuts. Fortunately the players themselves seem pretty bad so I can get some wins.
Arena I really suck at picking cards so I'll do those as gold allows to get some more experience there.
Oh and for the dust, is it always safe to do the "Disenchant Extra Cards" ? Is that automatically deleting cards I have more than 2 of?
