Nice breakdown, was an enjoyable read! Having such a high winrate with a somewhat budget deck is impressive! Does it have to do with your opponents also often lacking the right cards for the top meta decks, or is it just that you're so good?

Thank you! With all the pushing from the GU team to incentivize people to stay in Mythic, I think the playing field has leveled out quite a bit with many less-optimized decks being played. As with any TCG, although I do believe that I am pretty good with my cards, there is always luck involved in the matchmaking (if I faced 20 Board Wipe Deaths, my WR would probably be something like 10 wins or so), and the luck of the draw.
After 8 weeks in Mythic, I do feel like anyone with a decently formed deck at the 0.01 - 0.10 ETH range can probably score >=16 wins rather consistently with a bit of luck. You can take a look at @yeetmaster 's posts - he has done 19 wins two times in a row with much cheaper decks.
Cheers!
Luck of the draw can definitely not be underestimated.. I think that's honestly the main difference between budget decks in mythic and more expensive ones: consistency. Very possible to get a good WR with a budget deck, but keeping that up consistently is harder than if you had a more solid deck. New system does make it more welcoming for cheaper decks though: plenty of packs to be earned and legendaries from 15 wins, as opposed to 17 (if I remember..).
