You can race to the face against Zoo, the Hyenas come up pretty huge in that matchup and they have nothing like what you can do with Deathstalker Rexxar to their board. Against Control decks (other than Warlock) you have Deathstalker for the long game and sticky minions like Kindly Grandmother and Rat Pack that they need to overspend to remove. Against Warlock, my woes are laid out above, but you need to draw your Silence effects and use them wisely. It's 50:50 at best.

Prizes: 205 gold, 85 dust, golden Smuggler's Run, and the pack had Aluneth in it!! All he plays is Mage, so this was huge.
//updates
Played a couple Ladder games. Hunter on Standard matched me against Paladin, Paladin for a couple losses, so I switch to Priest, running SW:Horror to kill their whole world and I run into Secret Hunter and Dragon Priest.
Over on Wild Ladder, I am playing Unfair and winning 80%. I just beat a Cubelock who was at 18 after becoming Gul'dan and then clearing my board. I hit him over two turns with FOUR Medivh's Valets (thank you Duplicate!) and a discounted Fireball (thank you Glyph!), Ping, Frostbolt, plain old Fireball for the slow roll overkill. My Secret still up was Counterspell--would have lost if he'd popped it.

Actually, the weird thing about current Control Paladin is that it doesn't play Aldor; once considered one of the best control cards in the game. But too many minions have important impact regardless of their attack value and Tarim kind of does what he does, only better. Then I played an emoting Secret Mage (squelched in the first three turns.) One key similarity that signaled that I was practicing in Casual was that both of them were playing Geist. No one's seriously playing Geist anymore.

Not quite sure what the last two Secrets were (one in play was probably Spellbender; the one in hand that he passed up in order to ping me may have been another Runes.) Tarim remains godlike.

//less salty now. Finally caught a couple playable matchups. Did you know there is a 5/5 Stealth at 5? I do, thanks to Firelands Portal from the worlds' most desperate Mage. She played her game, no complaints. Tough roll for me though, I had so many outs to draw and solutions in hand.

But, of course, the Battlecry is to choose an invocation, so after I picked Water, I got the choice I really wanted, too, and picked Air. Board was clear and me still with my War Golem. Oh, and Grumble in hand. Not bad. Of course, the deck will be crippled in the rotation, since it loses all of the Jade cards. I have no idea how they're going to rescue Shaman. I really like Grumble but, uh. I don't think he's enough.

Yeah, right there with you. After a week, I'm actually down on where I started this season. Keep running into Spiteful Dragon Priest, which seems tailored to beating ... anything I'm running at the moment. Might have to try playing it myself. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em and all that.

I am goofing with a couple of Priest builds in Casual (which is actually fun now!). One is Kazakus Craziness. Just ..stuff. Spitefu Summoner? Sure! might get SW:Death though, oh well. Prince Keleseth, sure! Thoughtsteal--sounds good. It can do anything! And thus nothing (sometimes). It's greedy though, so, assuming they don't burn me out I can hang out and play huge stuff. The other is Quest and kind of a mess, but it's fun. Tired of the same old.
//edit Got it!
...and my Shaman is also at 430 or so. So Shaman and Priest in range for goldenness in the next few months.

I crafted Aluneth at the start of the week to play Tempo Mage - had a bunch of matching quests so thought I might as well. I've played about 15 games with it now and I've not drawn it once - not in opening hand, or mulligan, or play. I've checked twice in the deck builder just to make sure it's in there, and it is. What a waste of dust.

Absolutely, but I've got about 8,000 dust kicking around, burning a hole in my account, so I got impulsive.
Just played against a horrible OTK Priest deck I hadn't seen before. Does everything it can to stay alive while drawing cards, and plays Corrupted Healbots. Then puts down Soulpriest, plays Twilight's Call and Circle of Healing for 36 points of damage.
Exactly the sort of shit that makes me want to give up playing forever.
