Are people still running apothecary decks? I haven't been on standard ladder a ton, but I haven't heard a peep about them since the nerfs.

My point exactly! Other competitive games I can alter how I'm playing to fit the situation. With Hearthstone I just hope my opponent doesn't counter everything I'm doing and shrug.

Well, don't take my statement too far. A combo deck is unfun to play against aggro. An aggro deck is unfun to play against control. Control is unfun to play against combo. You can win those match-ups, but depending on the specific decks, the likelihood is often extremely low, and the unfun part comes when you feel helpless. I don't mind any loss where I actually get to participate in it. If all I'm doing is hopelessly (and ineffectively) deflecting my opponent's game plan, that's when it becomes disinteresting.
