I play against this deck, 1-6 times maybe. I win 1-3 times playing tempo mage. Next time you quote me , quote the whole statement.

I didn't quote you out of context, so there is no need to quote the whole statement. That's precisely what you said, that you don't think Patron is that strong of a deck. There is not a single high level Hearthstone player who agrees with you. Anywhere.
There is no question this is correct. When my spectate quest pops up, I've watched some Patron Warrior players make mistake after mistake and still come away with a victory because their win conditions are so lenient.

Destroy, no, but Zoo vs Control warrior is heavily favored for the Zoo player.Is it normal for a zoo lock to destroy a control warrior. I think I'm 1 for 10 on my warrior against zoo. They get through everything and lol4implosion every time
WTF does 100% win rates have anything to do with it? The only deck that has ever come close to a 100% win rate is the control warrior vs freeze mage matchup. If you look at the top 5 of both Tempo Storm and Liquidhearth, it's basically all decks that have favorable matchups against patron, but Patron has still been #1 for weeks because its unfavorable matchups aren't very unfavorable, and its favorable matchups are very favorable. Patron is unquestionably the strongest deck that Hearthstone has had since the beta ended. The only deck that comes close is pre-Naxx Miracle Rogue and even that had at least one hard-counter in the form of face hunter. 2 months of experimenting still hasn't produced a hard counter to patron.

Fucking hell that pre nerf miracle rogue was infuriating. Maybe it wouldn't seem that way now but I feel like I'd rather face huntards and GP wars than that shit again. I've kinda embraced playing oil at times though more than I ever did miracle, so I'm sure I've pissed some people off with the kill combos myself.
I still hate freeze mage more than anything. Just feels "cheaper" than aggro to me, at least aggro is a straight up battle not attrition and combo tedium.

Fuck aggro and hunters, 15 games in a row with either face hunter, zoo, or aggro paladin...9 of which were hunters. This is fucking killing the game for me. It's so fucking boring. There's close to no strategy at all...it's just go face and pretty much ignore everything.

To this day, Lotheb is one of my favorite cards because it simply poops on miracle rogue.

Except miracle rogue was still a dominant deck after Naxx, just not quite as dominant.
Miracle rogue was amazing, they needed to just tone it down and not destroy the deck outright with all the nerfs.

Priests are just a waste of time. I just concede, its not worth my time.Just played some sort of fatigue priest that casted barely any minions the entire game and ran two SWord Deaths and SWordains, two thoughtsteals, two mind visions, two lightbombs and TWO mind controls. At rank 18. Very frustrating to play against.
Mind you, this guy might have been doing the spells quest?

Hard to say if that will be good but I'm leaning toward "no". Rogue just got a 6/6 for 5 with Stealth that is rarely played. a 6/7 for 5 is another big minion but doesn't fit any of their decks. MAYBE this will birth a "Control" Rogue deck but idk. The only minions bigger than this for 5 are like Fel Reaver & Venture Co. It is a common so I'm not surprised its garbage.
