Crazy. I remember Sjaz? or whatever's early Pirate Warrior plus a few other notable players used all 3, if not 2. I guess that list is more aggressive.

Yes, 2x Offensive Play stacks. Had a turn 2 Rag played against me. Wouldn't have been so bad if Rag went face instead of nuking my Paletress 2x in a row. (Coin+Offensive Play+Paletress Turn 3 into Paletress Turn 4).
After that I concede np.
I felt like 2x Offensive play wouldn't stack, but then I remember only reason 2x Prep doesnt stack is because Prep is a spell so the 1st prep is used up on the 2nd, in this scenario since Offensive Play is a spell and not a Legendary you can stack them.
I like the brawl though. Heavy RNG but all legendaries are fun to play with. My first Brawl was actually a nailbiter. He got me down to 3 health but then I had Bolf to save my ass and Yshaarj next play which threatened lethal and he couldn't finish me off.
Edit: Sidenote, 2x Prep does stack if you cast 1 before dropping Yogg and then Yogg casts a Prep. Your next spell that turn is reduced by 6
Pirate Warrior right now isn't really a Pirate deck, it's a face (mostly) weapon deck. The pirates are just there to buff weapons and add to face damage while being roughly vanilla minions.
It's actually a pretty successful deck (33-24 with it) in the present meta but if you don't have a weapon out early, things are likely to go badly.

It's really no different from how aggro warrior has always been. Incredibly dangerous if your opening hand + first couple draws curve out right, but the deck runs out of steam incredibly easy.

The meta does seem pretty diverse. Most classes have viable archetypes now. Priest and Mage got hit pretty hard, Paladin too but they have some viability. There's some BS mechanics still but at least secret trees and force/roar are gone. The complaints are basically just how HS has always been and will likely always be. Things will continue to morph as they continue to rotate sets over the long haul.

I agree about Blizzard balance, all they do is shift extremes back and forth or shift to the same status quo into bigger numbers. I don't care about serious ladder in Hearthstone though so my solution was playing wild instead of standard. Maybe I got lucky these last weeks but it seems like most tryhards are in standard and the wild meta is less lopsided. My only complaint would be that wild is heavy on control while I prefer midrange games but there's nothing you can do to influence that.
