Wew lad! Took longer than I would have hoped, but better late than never. So that's probably all I'm going to really try for this season. I might just dick around with some decks for the rest of the season, like Druid or Shaman, just for fun.













Even thought I didn't get Legend this season like I planned, I think it's important to focus on one big positive: I got rank 5 two season consecutively. I heard somewhere, and I don't know how true it is, that the amount of people who get legend one season is so much more than the amount of people who get legend every season, so to be able to hit rank 5 twice in a row is I think a good sign that I am improving and I am learning. This season provided me with 3 big hurdles, learning Warrior for the first time (Patron and Control), learning to combat Secret Paladins, and getting past ranks 6-7. Learning how to play Warrior and learning how to play against Secret Paladins were pretty important steps for me because they taught me how to change my way of thinking as well as how to play smarter in general. And getting past rank 6 just helped reinforce the belief that I shouldn't give up, even when I'm not doing well, and that I should just try harder. It might not be legend, but it's a good step forward, and I'm proud.

Here's my timeline for how I would like things to go this season, I don't know how realistic they are but I'm going to try my best.

Week 1: Get to rank 10
Week 2: Get to rank 5
Week 3: Get to rank 3
Week 4: Get legend

Got this in a pack. I'll probably disenchant it eventually but I'll keep it until I need the dust.






And just hit 200 Warrior wins. 2/5 of the way there.

So far, off to a bad start. After climbing up to rank 13 I feel down to 15 and didn't hit my goal of rank 10. Now I'm trying to play but having all kinds of internet problems and disconnects. So we'll see.

Lately I've been studing Xixo playing patron warrior and taking notes to try to learn how to play better as well.

Back up to rank 13 with handlock, will try to get to rank 10 tomorrow, if not today. Maybe this is the way to go, switching decks now and then instead of going for golden hero powers just to learn more decks and get a better understanding of what my opponents are going to be doing when playing those decks. I'd still like to get Warrior to at least 250 wins, I'm at like 220 now.

Started off the day playing Patron Warrior, went 3-5. Out of those 8 matchups, 6-7 of them were aggressive style decks, which are decks I still struggle with, so I decided to switch to my anti-aggro Handlock deck. With my Handlock deck I went 7-4. Out of those 11 matchups, 6-7 were aggressive style decks. So that might be my new plan; when I'm getting aggro matchups switch to Handlock, and when I'm getting non-aggro switch to patron.

This is my Anti-Aggro Handlock deck

And this is Xixo's Patron Warrior deck I've been using

Grinding with Patron again, so far today I'm 11-7, the break down is like this:

Paladin: 3-1
Warlock: 1-1
Druid: 2-1
Priest: 1-0
Mage: 1-2
Hunter: 2-2
Warrior: 1-0

I'm glad I'm ahead in the Paladin matchup, because that was is so annoying, and in the Druid matchup, because they're popular. I would like to do better against mages because they are pretty popular no and Hunter matchups I think come down to draws a lot it seems. I know one of my losses my hand was just completely dead for the first like 7 turns; all Battle Rages and combo pieces with no activators.

/e Currently rank 11. I guess I'll go for rank 5 by the end of next weekend if I can stay motivated. Going to try to at least get 12 more warrior wins today for 250 total wins.

Been playing control warrior, started running 2x Bash and 2x Piloted Shredder and so far I kind of like it. It does pretty well against Druids. Hit 250 warrior wins:







And got both Golden Chillwind Yeti's, which I just think is a cool card.

So, Patron Warrior is going to be heavily nerfed, so I guess I can forget about trying to learn how to play that pretty well. But that's okay, I've been liking my Control Warrior deck and I've maintained a decent winrate. I'm almost rank 9 right now, so I'm going to try to push for rank 5 by the end of the week, which would give me a whole week or so to push for Legend from there. I'm going to continue with Warrior until I get golden hero power, and then either craft Mal'Ganis and make a Demon Handlock deck or play Druid.
