Cue the standard "this season sucks" post.

I'm usually not one to complain about the current meta, but I just can't get over how this season has been going, at least for me. Games have been so lobsided, with the majority of them being blowouts and ending before half the lobby even gets their Greater Trinket.

Normally, I'd be able to still have fun during these matches, even when I lose. But they've all just felt so bad and unrewarding. Even when I win I'm not having fun. I don't like when lobbies turn into a top 4 after turn 7. This is largely due to the trinket mechanics. I know it's beating a dead horse, but they're so RNG dependent and terrible to play around, I'd almost prefer an option to skip my trinkets to preserve my tempo. Then, mix that in with the current card pool, and BOOM, you have one of the least fun and engaging season's I've played in a while.

For instance, the fact that they haven't nerfed cards like Ring Bearer is literally INSANE to me. That card single handedly wins games and is so unbalanced I don't understand how it even made it through to the live game.

Rant over. Feel free to roast me for being bad or having a bad take. Just curious to see if anyone else feels this way as well.

Started writing a post asking why my Salvager was dying on its own. As I was writing I realized what was happening...

Maybe I should just level roll next turn

For me it’s Lightfang Enforcer. Before we had all of the options we have now, menagerie was easily my favorite way to play because of its diverse possibilities. I would choose lightfang over Brann on some triples because Lightfang was my homie.

For my least it’s that old tier 3 2/1 dragon with divine shield and reborn. I hated that bitch so much because so many combats for me would end with the only thing standing being that little fucker without any attachments left.

Anyone else having this problem? Do I have a weird setting? Past week I have just the name of the heroes.

I’m going to be honest it’s probably better for me if I don’t freak out that beter is in my lobby. But still wth.

Sometimes I'll see boards in my dreams.

Sometimes it'll be the game mechanics applied in completely random ways, like some dream about cooking where I triple ingredients based on the order I cook them (yay triple garlic!).

Sometimes it's some fantasy battle where I'm leading a legion and I establish a frontline based on soldiers with deathrattles.

Sometimes it's a party I don't want to attend (usually a baby shower) and I've hoarded up battlecries to make attending more enjoyable.

And of course, in my dreams, I try to optimize all that and it plays out??? Lol

Mostly a ton of "normal" (by dream standards) stuff all have HS BG mechanics applied to it. Makes for a very trippy morning when I have to remind myself that I don't need to do that stuff in RL....
