Welp, figured I had saved up some gold and was getting a bit tired of losing to obviously superior decks/players (I haven't crafted any cards yet) so I'd give arena another go.
After my first loss I played a warlock who had something like three purples and two oranges, one of which was some 8/8 dragon that just happened to reset his life as he was about to die to fatigue. And also kill my 8/8 treebeard that I'd just replayed after saving it with the drunk panda guy.

If it makes you feel any better, the way you described that makes me really want to see you cast pro games and try to explain what's going on.

Weird decks tonight while playing my dragon handlock experiment.
First match, vs. a druid. He drops Dancing Sword on Turn 3, so I assume he's mill druid. I silence and kill it; his reply "My thanks to you." Yep, not a mill druid. He starts ramping and drops an Ironbark Protector a few turns later. Since he's not mill I keep tapping, and when the Protector comes down I've got a decent board: a 5/6 Ancient Watcher, Argus, a 9/9 taunted Molten Giant, and something else.
He drops a Mind Control Tech. Takes the Giant. Then drops a Faceless Manipulator.
Well that was fun. Both teams played hard!
Next game, vs. a warrior.
Warrior coins out a Mechwarper, so I know something weird is happening. I dump it with Darkbomb, but he proceeds to run out a slew of nice mechs (including that Warrior mech that buffs another with +2/+2) and starts stomping all over my face, and I don't have very good means of dealing with them. Suddenly my life is real low. Eventually I start drawing into taunts, and I stabilize at 5 health. That's when he drops the Iron Juggernaut. I'm preparing to draw a bomb next turn and kiss the game goodbye.
Instead, it's Jaraxxus.
I drop Big J and proceed to clear his board and keep my health above 10. Next turn, Chromaggus, I've still got a taunt on the board and he's basically out of cards. I drop Chrom Dog, raise and Inferno, and start pounding on this guy's face, and the game is basically over. On his last turn, he draws a Fiery War Axe, punches me in the face to bring me to 8, emotes "Well Played" and ends his turn. I prepare to receive a land mine from RNGesus for all my Hearthstone sins.
Instead, it's two copies of Nefarian. A few seconds after I didn't explode, the warrior concedes. Damn fun game.
I just had a priest coin blademaster turn 2, I get psyched because I can actually kill that god damn minion since he didn't heal it, then he plays 2 resurrects. Why is life pain?

Chrommaggus would make you draw two mines and get hit for twenty, wouldn't it?
Hahaha I just played my shitty flamewaker deck against a (largely) mech mage. I was behind pretty considerably because he had Dr. Boom and I don't. I'm down to 2 health, and he has like 12, but I have a slightly better board than he does (I have Sen'Jin and Sorcerer's Apprentice, he has a Harvest Golem), which in theory doesn't matter because all he has to do is wait 2 turns. I have 2 secrets in play, which will come up in a second.
It gets to his turn. All he has to do is ping my face, maybe place down a taunt or something. But, no, he has a clever idea! You see, he used Unstable Portal waaaaaay back in the beginning of the game, and he pulled something that will allow him to end with style... Mal'Ganis! He'll have immunity and there's nothing I can do about it! Except... one of my secrets is Mirror Entity. It's demon vs. demon except mine goes first. Now who's immune? And can clear your Mal'Ganis with a fireball/ping? He surrendered before I could land the finishing blow but I was pretty hype. I mean I get the joy of winning due to Unstable Portal RNG and I don't even have that card. Is this what playing priest feels like?

Thalnos goes with anything. I crafted it so I could Rouge better.
I crafted this exact deck. And I sank to Rank 20, but it does seem fun to play if you have the right draw.
Rogur combo has been my pet for as long as it existed. I played that version from like 15 to 10 and it can definitely climb the ladder, but it's hard to play. You'll get better with practice.
It obviously has bad matchups and terrible draws, but that's true of every deck.

Mines get funky when they're in your hand. One of the mythbusters videos had them thoughstealing them and they like, exploded when the other person drew a card? It was weird.

Yeah, I know. I think it should be buffed in light of how the game has developed.
I think I agree with you on this one. My Shamandecks tend to need just a tad more defence/life gain, and slots are precious.

I don't think either of us knew what would happen.
End result was 4 grim patrons vs my baron. I had a good follow-up but he eventually won because he had two of his card-draw cards.
another game:
I triggered his immunity with a dagger throw, but then he won because I didn't know malygos freeze mage was a thing. If i wasn't drinking I probably would have healer with the ancient of lore to be safe.

I'd prefer just the ability to choose which totem to play (of the ones that aren't already on the board). Give me that spellpower totem when I need it, and I'll start playing Shaman again. Shouldn't even require any major UI developments since druids already have an interface to choose between two card effects.
How do I add an opponent on a friend on the mobile versions? I thought I'd be able to tap their names but nooooooo.
Also: demonlock. It just ain't working for me. In 15 games I've lost 10 of them, summoned a single demon with Voidcaller once and have never actually become Jaraxxus because I'm usually dead by turn 9. I need some fiddling with the deck, any board experts wanna help?

Can we see the decklist you're currently running? There's a lot of variations to demonlock and we need to figure out if you're zoo, midrange or control. (All three are distinct and viable versions of the deck.)

Because fuck you that's why!
I think you'd have one in your hand that wouldn't go off?

This should be correct. Cards generated by Chromaggus are not considered "drawn."
Pretty sure the second one just goes in your hand, yeah.

Did you or the opponent play some combination of wisp, wisp, target dummy, target dummy, coin, and explosive sheep?

No.
Funny enough, the timeline of moves on the left was blank afterward.

My mistake, I pressed Ctrl instead of the Fn button.
Essentially similar to ramp druid except with her removal spells which are about 34905% better.
Seems to be doing OK so far.
Needs some tweaks.

What does the ramp consist of? Thaurissan, alarm-bot, unstable portal (sort of) and ?
Start playing my tempo paladin. Immediately queue into two patron warriors and a control mage.
Whomp whomp.
PSN: Threeve703
Basically a steady increase on big big minions with her removals.
2 zombie chow
2 frost bolt
1 armani berserker
1 explosive sheep (for those hilarious times when mage runs mirror image)
1 mad scientist
2 arcane intelect (might cut down to 1)
1 counter spell
1 duplicate
1 echo of med
2 fireball
2 polymorph
2 pyloted shredder
2 water elemental
1 antique healbot
1 loatheb
2 sludge belcher (new additions)
1 tharussian
1 sylvanas
1 dr. boom
1 chromagnus (might change with kelthusad)
1 rag swag
1 ysera
Its main weakness is super mega aggro decks when you have a bad starting hand.
Might also change 1 zombie for another reliable 2-drop.

The term is literally just a shorthand for Rampant Growth, which was MTG's original version of Wild Growth.
