why dragon decks are bad:

blizzard fucked up in making cheap minions too good compared to big minion:

1 mana 3/2 flame imp with a minor set back? giants should not be 8/8. they should be 13/13. why? because you need to wait, and the wait should be worth something, it is just not the case. Thats why aggro is so good, minions like knife jugglers, with such ability, should be a 1/2.

the only dragon that helps a dragon deck is paladin only, the only good paladin's removal is equality consecration.

WHY would you play heavy minions (slow), with big stats, if your removal is to make your own shits 1 hp? so counter productive lol....

but because the dragons also are not that great, don't synergize at all (all dragons get +2+2 and something, where are those cards?) it is pointless, blackwing corruptor is a great 3 drop IF you have a dragon.

harvest golem is always a good 3 drop, imp gang boss shits on blackwing corruptor all day, and overall, the small stats gain is NOT worth it. Yes in trump stupid "value town" this trades with more than 1 minion, which helps in arena.

in the real game, constructed, who gives a flying fuck your conditional stats minions trade with 2 others? aggro will flood your face and will let you trade slowly and die, and control is very happy to see you trade slowly while it draws cards that are better than your shitty dragon/ small fire ele.

Total threats of paladin dragon : 2 equality consecration, ysera, sometimes tirion. everything else is mid game minions, so worthless. Chromaggus is maybe top 5 of the worst legendaries in the game, so not a problem.


want dragon decks to be good? add 8-9 dragons that costs LESS than 4, with actual tribal advantages, and some real end game minions faster than Ysera and less all in than Deathwing.




100% true, dragon warrior is a worst control warr, adding conditional cards that don't bring an edge and make your deck less reliable is called being stupid and ignorant of how statistics work.

Enjoy the high :D

I don't think dragons are particularly good either, but I can't knock the warrior variant. Albeit a bit slower, vs a control deck it can easily outperform the standard version, and the corruptors almost always get their battle cry

Corruptors are borderline mediocre in control match ups and borderline terrible vs aggro. So many good 5 drops in this game.

Also you need to win like 51% of your games to reach legend. You only need a higher win rate if you plan to climb quickly. B)

Depends how many games you play in a month. 51% can still not be enough.
In fact even in a world where you play the maximum number of games in that 1 month period it could still not be enough.


Also, Blackwing is 5/3 with 3 damage.
a total of 11 stats (if you count each damage as 1 health)

Belcher is 3/5 with 1/2 so 11 stats + taunt.
3/5 effective against aggro in an aggro meta and can stop at least 7 potential damage.

Belcher is just better. The dragon version just sucks in comparison to normal control Warrior.
And if something is the same concept but not as good, that means it just sucks since you're not using the better version. Therefore dragon Warrior sucks.

yes.

but no worries about "stats" to get legend... getting there is super easy and fast, most multiple times legend players HAVE over 70-80% winrate, it is not uncommon at all. ofc if u still think trump amaz or reynad are good pros, those number surprise you. but if you look on EU at xixo, greensheep, alpha or romanp (usually the first 4 legend in the first 24-48h), you will see winrates close to 90-95%. so if you try to have 51%, you should improve first, rewatch your game and see the crazy amount of missplays you do, then try to go legend ;)

i honestly find him more entertaining than reynad or superjj.... cry salty kids over a game, if i wanted to watch that, i would go see a real life 3 year old kid....

amaz is just overreacting, just like an average american girl ^^ remove "like" and "oh my god" from their vocabulary and they can barely speak :p

Don't be silly. 1% maybe a small margin, but you only need 25 stars to go from 5 to legend. Getting to like rank 5 is ez pz, win streaks and what not.

Basically to go from 5 to legend you need to play 2500 games with a 51% win rate. Doable? Yes definitely. Even if every match you had took 10 minutes you could do it. You would have to spend nearly every waking hour on hs for a month, but it's not impossible. :P
