Hearthstone became frustrating to play as a returning player – June 4, 2023 at 09:58PM

Hello,

I haven’t played for some years and today I grinded a few matches. There are very nice rewards for returning players, like the loaner decks, and I got about 150 free packs. I also got like 6k Gold.

But for some reason, I can’t enjoy Hearthstone. I feel like there is way too much control in the game. I can’t even have a single minion on the battlefield for a single turn. It literally gets destroyed/removed/countered immediately. Its so frustrating to play nowadays.

I don’t feel like this was the same when I played Hearthstone the last time. Just from the matches I’ve played now, I feel like the meta has shifted incredibly towards spells and I don’t like that at all. Even the high cost mana minions I’ve played so far had no impact because they don’t even last a single turn on the battlefield.

Also, some matches are going on forever while literally everything is controlled by spells.

​

Are there players who have been playing for years and can agree with me? Or do I just remember hearthstone wrong? Is it only like that currently? Anyway, I can’t enjoy Hearthstone like I used to.
