I played arena 3 times yesterday, and did pretty poorly with mage twice. As mentioned, I didn't get my important spells in the first one.. Well in the second, I DID get pyro and 2 fireballs... I even got an epic (Ysera, other choices were Deathwing and Harrison). No flamestrike though, and no arcane intellect. Never drew my pyro or Ysera once (well I did get Ysera on mulligan). So if my opponent had draw cards, I didn't have a chance. Otherwise it was about who could topdeck the best cards by turn 14+. It was pretty lame.

Same story on my druid. I got BOTH Ancients, AND two Wild Growth (even draw them with coin on my mulligan draw). I thought I had a nice deck similar to a constructed ramp druid. But nope, without draw, I had nothing. Well I had draw, but with Druid sometimes you can't use draw.. if you need to wrath for 3, then you don't draw. If you need to heal with your ancient, you lose draw. So it was the same thing, holding my dick while the opponent built up the board with minions and I couldn't do anything about it.

I need to figure out Arena. I thought I had it figured out after I did well with my shammy.

I'm rank 14 on ladder using a combo of my zoo and mage. I still make stupid decisions, either not thinking things through clearly, or taking big gambles that don't pay off. Need to work on that to go higher.
