Am i stupid for not reaching past rank 20? (Bit of a rant)

Hi,

I know this sounds silly for everyone else. I even saw a guy claim to have reached pro in a week lol

Honestly I don't even understand how much of an underachiever my deck has been. (Have been playing pirates SK lately)

It seems like people have two metas in the same deck. I met one guy with the perfect deathwish combo and continuing with the perfect vampire combo round two.
After that i met a perfect shieldwall NR and rond 2 perfect witcher lol

And also a million Jackpot syndicate which are impossible..

Any tips? Are Pirates really that bad or have i just reached my peak intelligence level in the game lmao?

Edit: thanks for the help and kind words everyone, trying to figure out how to share my deck lol

Sorry i kind of got lost in the comments and watching tutorials. This is my deck, it's just one card from the meta i saw some improvement after watching a bunch of tutorials and switching Holger Blackhand to Morkwarg. Cheers!
