So this just happened.

T1: Coin -> Mad Scientist
T2: Unstable portal into a 3 mana Mekatorque
T3: Mekatorque into a Poultryizer(turns a minion into a 1/1 chicken every turn). Mad Scientist dies and summons effigy.
His T3: Kills Mekatorque -> Effigy summon Skeletal Knight -> Concede

Okay, first of all

1) How did you get paired against someone two ranks below you, and
2) Can't the poultryizer turn the skeletal knight into a chicken as well? Isn't his concede very premature?

My guess is either a rage quit from misplaying effigy or poultry zapped his minion and I didn't see the animation yet.

Hearthstone doesn't wait any extra time when it can't find the perfect match. It just always throws you what it has. It's especially annoying when it does that to cause high-win arena rematches.

You know, I'd like to complete these quests for gold because I have literally 0, but I can't because the only people I get put up against are the ones with every fucking card, so I can't win. That's really dumb. Why is the matchmaking so god damn bad.

Ranked or normals?

Yep, actually you should play ranked if you are "below" (...so above) rank ~15 I guess, because until then casual is harder than ranked imo.

Casual. My plan was to wait for everyone who was supposed to be much higher pass by in ranked while I chil in normals for a bit. But if you guys say low ranks =easier, k.

Especially if you're below level 20, you want to play ranked, because that's where the other newbies will be.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

If you wait until the only people left in ranked are REALLY bad, you'll glide through them like butter and spike up to a higher rank than you want to be at. So it's a wash at best - due to the way win streak mechanics work, waiting too long might be worse than a wash.

I'd go for ranked now

I doubt you are interested in hearing my opinion, but I would bring patron and decks that can beat patron. Since that cancer secret pally loses to patron I wouldn't bring it even if it "didn't suck".

Heyo, I'm looking for any tips regarding my Face Hunter deck. I got to Rank 9 with it last season and I plan to try to get rank 5 or better this season. I'm struggling a bit though against some of the more common decks (Primarily secret Paladin) and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to improve the deck at all. I don't have any of the new TgT cards in the deck so perhaps someone could suggest some good ones in this?

^ That looks like a pretty standard face hunter list. I made it to legend with face hunter like 3 months ago. I was running snaketrap and one highmane over the 2nd ArcaneGolem and Wolfrider(?) I think.

I think I ran double ironbeak? That one depends on how many taunts you are seeing I guess. Which has been a little bit less recently since the pallies and hunters aren't running any. If you are fighting a lot of dragon priests then it might be worth 2.

Got to rank 6 after bouncing around a bit.

When in doubt, run mech mage I suppose >.>

Antonidas is the last card in that.

I think you cannot really tech a Face Hunter against Secret Pally. I mean sure, you can use kezans and stuff but then what do you cut?
I was rank 9 last season and my goal is rank 5 - just like you. I am climbing with Midrange Hunter and I am at rank 11 currently, I found it pretty good so far. It's not specifically strong against Paladin but I think it is better than Face Hunter.
And Patron is generally good against Paladins, so it shouldn't struggle against the secret version either.
