How can you complain about quest rogue when i'm dead by turn 4 or 5 to aggro druid/face hunter? Vs pirate warrior i still have a little chance to comeback, but vs these atrocious decks i cant do shit with it. Quest rogue is absolute shit if the draw is bad. By the end of the day i lost 90% of my matches because i simply couldnt draw what i needed, i swear to god i wanted to punch my monitor.
Heartstone community is fucked up, again, QUEST ROGUE is good only if your draws are good, this deck is not cancerous at all because you have to think a little bit about your plays and also you have to depend on lucky draws. Any other quest is far more easy to do. Yes, i agree that if you draw completly insane or at least decent this quest is the best, but if you dont it's absolute crap. So i really hope heartstone community will stop crying about this deck and cry about the real cancer out there on the ladder.
1) You can Tech your Quest Rogue deck with stuff like Bilefin Tidehunter to take much less damage in your early game. Spawning like, 2 taunts a turn really mitigates how much face damage can be done.
2) Face damage and hyper aggro is the counter to Quest Rogue
3) The prevalence of hyper aggressive decks is a response to the Quest Rogue meta.
So in Hearthstone, when a new expansion comes out, all decks are pretty fair game. Nobody knows what works best and in what ratio.
But as some decks prove to be more prevalent than others, a rock paper scissors meta forms.
a) Quest Rogue is really good, beats a lot of stuff, play Quest Rogue
Okay now Quest Rogue is destroying Deathrattle Priest, Quest Hunter, Buff Paladin, and quest mage. So a lot of people play quest rogue.
Oh man now there's a lot of quest rogues? How do I win in this meta?
b) Aggro beats quest rogue. So I'll be aggro druid, I'll be pirate warrior, I'll be face hunter. I'll beat all these quest rogue players and climb like that.
So okay now we got tons of quest rogues poaching players and aggro decks poaching the quest rogues. Now you got your ass kicked by an aggro deck for the last time and say I NEED TO BEAT THE AGGRO
c) Taunt Warrior. That's it. Tired of losing by turn 4, I'm playing taunt warrior. So you play taunt warrior to beat the aggro decks that are out there trying to poach the quest rogues.
And what you end up with, is a meta triangle. If Hearthstone was a well designed game, that'd be fine. Because if it were a well designed game, shit like Taunt Warrior vs. Face Hunter would require both players to make intelligent decisions to win. But it's not :c
