I’m a bit late here as we’ve known about this format for Twist for some time, but it just hit me today that Water Rogue was a thing in Gadgetzan.

I liked that deck. Not mindless aggro but a pretty tempo deck with Finja at the centre. Hopefully it’s at least semi-competitive in this format.

i want to believe, but d5+ is infested with counters (even war, reno priest, reno lock, etc.) and even then when you don't highroll and you're playing against even shaman or mech pally it just hurts. it feels like the meta is so warped to countering disc. lock now i'm just stuck in the mud.

Still not 100% sure how I'd rank the current Battleground gimmick but I do really like the small anomalies that influence the game without totally warping it. Like the one this week that gives you a free tavern refresh with minions of your most common type when you upgrade is great.
