so yeah I spent a good day or so thinking about it and I think I will be stopping my "daily" arena runs, and probably quitting hearthstone all together. it's one thing to be in a position of hope, wondering if maybe the state of arena might be improved based on changes they could potentially announce in an upcoming update. granted, my expectations were pretty low. I imagined they would probably not announce any update or change to arena. my idea was that I'd simply stop playing until the synergy pool was removed. however, given what I learned yesterday, it has fundamentally changed my view of the game.

A. the best thing about arena right now, the heightened class diversity, is the DIRECT result of a harmful policy put in place to normalize all win rates as close to 50%. literally intentionally turning the game into a coin flip.

B. the worst thing about arena right now is not an issue that the HS devs have been thinking about how to fix. quite the opposite. it is a DIRECT result of a policy they intentionally implemented to make arena this way. and based on the comments in the developer interview they seem to think this is a GOOD thing and that it's working as intended.

no thanks. I'll be finding something else to play. I can't say for certain that I'll NEVER come back to hearthstone but this feels very much like an indefinite hiatus.
