nah, its a demonstrated trend.
''Let's start insulting people because they disagree with me''
>Then brag about how good I am intellectually.

One person getting lucky and winning a final doesn't "prove your point"
No one claimed luck doesnt play a part. It does not logically follow that its a joke or that competitive players are "dumb" if luck is involved and can elevate people in small sample sizes.
Thats the case in many other games and sports as well.
It's not just about Pavel. As I said these instances are extremely common. I'll explain below why I can't take it too seriously.
And let me correct myself.. I have nothing against people who are taking competitive HS seriously, I called you a dumbass because you started using petty insults when I said competitive HS is a joke. Starts talking shit about the ranks when it's irrelevant, even if I was rank 25.

Shows a deep ignorance of the game. Its much more than rolling the dice and hoping you draw well.
Seems like you fail to understand my point.. I said skills is involved but the fact that you win or not is extremely dependant on your draws. As you can see in the quote you bolded, I said ''For the most part''
And I'm not the only one who thinks like that.. I've seen many pros thinking that way, including reynad.

Your own skill at the game is a joke and you fail to appreciate or understand good play, instead choosing to mock from afar pretending you could do just as well.
Now you're just assuming shit. I appreciate good plays and am a fairly good player, far better than the average. And no, I'm aware that the pros are better than me and I couldn't do as well because as I said, there are skills involved.
How often do you lose against players who make plenty of mistakes while there is absolutely nothing you can do ?
But guess what ? In what other competitive games do good players have a fair shot at beating the world champion ? It is the case with Hearthstone.

Most of the time the winner of a poker tournament or a major sport playoff is not the "best" team. Are those jokes too? and people who take it seriously are dumb?
Nah.. your logic and shit opinion just doesn't hold up.
There is no rng in sports.
In poker, you are in control, as in you can fold whenever you want . Similar to hs.. the pros can lose to common people.
But let's not go this route I don't feel like arguing for 10 hours.
