I tried playing a few times a long time ago, it wasn't working so well for me but that was before I was aware of this clip into the timer of your opponent thing, and the joust cards.
I had it played against me. I am usually a pretty fast player, but seriously when you don't expect Noz, and he's on the board...it's very easy to start panicking a bit. It's easier when you're the one playing it.
Especially the first turn, when your opponent drops it and immediately hit end turn, and the rope starts on your turn you were not expecting it.
On a more serious note, I think an easy fix would be to pause the timer when card animation are playing. And possibly shorten a turn by 10-30 seconds to compensate for the turn now being longer because of animations.

Man, this game just fucking sucks now. I could handle the RNG before TGT came out, but now it is just god damn ridiculous.
Well I had my fun with TGT and they got me for $50 but I'm done until they add an actual tournament mode.

It's just seems like there is far more RNG now on the ladder. That and playing against Secret Paladin is worse than playing Patron ever was.

stats seem to suggest so and Warrior has dropped even farther off the cliff
1 Week of TGT @ HearthArena: Mage lost its throne in Arena! : hearthstone
1 Week of TGT @ HearthArena: Mage lost its throne in Arena! : hearthstone
Last week I created a reddit post containing Class Statistics after the first day of TGT Arena. We are now one week in, and with over 190,000 decks made with the HearthArena drafting assistant in the past week, we have some new statistics to share.
The biggest news is that according to the following stats, for the first time in Hearthstone history, Mage is no longer the best class in Hearthstone Arena! With the announcement of Bren Brode that TGT cards are offered more (this seems to be 20-25% according to our stats), Mage's classic cards like Flamestrike and Fireball are offered even less than we initially expected, and everyone's favorite Bolster is offered even more!
Sadly, it seems that class-wise the Arena is more imbalanced than it was before. Before, classes were all in a 0.9 wins range (4.1-5.0 wins) region. Now it seems this range has almost doubled (3.5 - 5.3 wins)! To me this is quite shocking.
It means AWDCTA's #ArenaWarriorsMatter is not exaggerated at all! Do note that there might be others reasons for this change in range: for example the amount of statistics, TGT still being new etc. However, it's definitely something we will continue to take a look at in the upcoming weeks.
Please note that for all these classes the average wins is far above the normal average in Arena. HearthArena users intend to win 61% of their games compared to the average of 50% for non-heartharena users.
If HearthArena were to give better advice for a certain class this may also influence the class win rates. Though, we currently have no reason to believe HearthArena's algorithm would perform betters for certain classes.
Now for the actual Class Statistics:

Turns out a Priest playing back to back double Lightbomb's is pretty good at tearing apart secret paladin. I did not see that coming. That mother fucker.
I think you guys are exaggerating saying playing against Riddledin is worse than Patron ever was. That's just ridiculous and it's only because you're having to deal with it *right now*. Secret Paladin is annoying, but it has counters and weaknesses and can't win on an empty board, and it also has inteeractivity. Patron simply doesn't, not really. And it'll come back, guaranteed.
