I guess I'm out of the noob pool now. My last 2 runs were 4 and 3 wins. Maybe I should start using HearthArena. I felt completely lost when drafting or maybe I just got really bad picks. The decks were so clunky and with so many subpar cards.
I pulled off a 12-2 run with Paladin today. Blessing of Authority, Libram of Justice and Moonfang were the key cards, I'd say. Seedcloud Buckler, the new Pally weapon, also did its job.
Got back into Hearthstone a month ago after a 3 year hiatus. Been playing mostly arena and climbing Standard ladder with Fel Demon Hunter.
Ive had 2 12 win arena runs since Ive been back.
First one was Paladin that had Templar Captain, Brasswing, and a bunch of other good value cards that I dont remember. Those two cards won me most games though.
2nd was a recent Hunter run that was 11-0 and finished 12-1. Had 3 Diving Gryphons ( I actually misclicked and chose one of them over a Primordial Drake), bunch of strong Rush minions, a Mountain Bear, Ambassador Faelin + several Dredge cards, and Alexstrasza the Life Binder to finish off opponents.
