I managed to hit legend last night with Questline Priest. I think I’m a masochist, I dunno, but yeah, it is almost auto loss to poison rogues. I managed to win a few games against them due to their misplays (going all in without lethal which let me heal up afterward, or misplay by overriding their own weapon during Secret Passage – F that card). Somehow those few wins against rogue let me put together a win streak which I extended against a few druids (aggro and ramp) to get me to legend. Also, thief rogues aren’t as bad though they are far less popular (at least in my climb).

I think it’s only because I played Questline Priest from the very beginning of the season, so I knew which cards to discover (there is a lot of variation there) or which ones would help me improvise in a pinch. In any case, roguestone sucks, and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else suffer through the climb the way that I did (unless you really love priest).

I just want to say thanks for these articles. As someone who quit Hearthstone a couple of years ago and only came back a few months ago, you helped me get up to speed quickly and not without some insight as well. Thank you!
