It's been 48 hours since the release of Journey to Un'Goro and Hearthstone players worldwide have been hard at work solving the meta and trying to figure out which deck will be the new king of the dinosaur ladder. Intrepid players have already uploaded more than 2.5 million ranked standard games and over 500,000 arena games. Let's find out who might end up ruling the Jurassic period and who might go extinct.
Ranked Standard
Warrior and Shaman seem to be pulling out front to an early lead with several new variations on Control Warrior and strong Elemental Shaman decks. Despite Rogue having far-and-away the most played deck, the class's winrate is not particularly high. Click any of the classes below to see the other high performing decks for that class.
| Class | Games Played | Winrate | Popularity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Druid | 468,534 | 48.56 | 8.80 |
| Hunter | 610,306 | 49.30 | 11.46 |
| Mage | 547,361 | 44.65 | 10.28 |
| Paladin | 222,670 | 45.99 | 4.18 |
| Priest | 449,086 | 47.54 | 8.43 |
| Rogue | 942,795 | 49.51 | 17.71 |
| Shaman | 750,445 | 53.59 | 14.10 |

| Warrior | 826,702 | 54.80 | 15.53 |
Arena
Unfortunately Warrior's dominance does not appear to be extending into the arena, where Rogue and Mage currently hold the top two slots. Unsurprisingly, according to the arena card winrates, the top two Un'Goro cards in arena currently are Meteor and Vilespine Slayer.

Note: Popularity is based on games played, not draft picks. This results in lower winrate classes having a naturally lower popularity.
