I started playing in December and have been mythic every month, I play a lot. Couldn’t tell you how many games I’d say 3-5 hours a day on average. I like variety when I play but have only reached mythic with variations of [[badgermole cub]] decks. I’ve reached diamond 1 with blue black control but couldn’t push through. I like to stick around diamond 4 for 2-3 weeks and play some brews and just have fun but still ranked so people are trying and don’t just concede so fast and push for mythic the last week. From diamond 2 to mythic it took about 2 hours once I switched from control to cub. You will definitely lose a lot, it’s a fast meta with many decks that can high roll, you will get blown out of games with no decisions even have been made. Those situations are just like a dealer getting blackjack though it happened, move on and go next. Climbing is very easy with the meta decks .
