This card needs to get banned. Yesterday was too late. I understand they wanted to make things fresh, but having 1-3 of these in every other, if not every, warlock deck is beyond stupid. Not to mention you are offered multiple Hellfires, Felfire Potions and Dread Infernals each draft alongside it. Then there is Voidcaller that gets that much more powerful with having multiple Abyssal Enforcers in the deck as well.
This card had lowered occurance rate for a reason, no need to fuck us in the ass with it again, just to give us the tase of how "fun" the card was back in a day.
Dont get me wrong, iv had decks where i completely dominated my opponents with this card as well as being destroyed by it. It is not ok to be on either side of it.
/edit: apologies for an inacurate statement, the card had lowered occurance rate, not actually outright banned in the past. Fixed it in the text.
Yes, the card was deemed so strong (and for good reason) they actually removed it from drafting pool. Same with Faceless Summoner for example, which is back as well, but at least not as common as Abyssal.

I googled a bit and I didnt find any information that it was ever banned. And tbh I cant remember that it really was banned. I just found a patch where they decreased the occurance rate in arena by 50%, but thats not really a ban for me though. Anyone got any source about the ban?

Incorrect. The card was never banned (as long it was in an Arena-legal set), but it did have its occurrence rate cut by 50% in February 2017, along with Flamestrike.

Well, i apologize. My memory is certainly not the sharpest lol! Thanks for correcting me, you are ofc right. Both of you. I suppose my original point stands, it does feel like the card should be banned or at very least have a much lower occurance rate.
I'm not sure, why blizzard let these cards slip into the arena pool. They were clearly a problem in the past. Warlock feels impossible to beat when they have abyssal on turn 7, The tempo swing is so big. Faceless summoner feels strong, but not as broken as it used to be.

Yup. In 62% of warlock decks and has one of the highest win rates in the class.
Card is too strong and too common in arena.
Reduce its frequency to 10% and itll be balanced.

Completely agree.
Football and games.
Warlock has 56% on HSreplay, which is like 2% less than Rogue had before nerfs. They certainly need to nerf Warlock hard and do it soon.
salt thread xDDDDDD
I had a draft, where it was offered 6 times (took 3)
Was is really banned in arena before? Didnt know
Normally I would agree, but given the unique nature of the arena draft. It's a valid argument that sincerely doesn't reek of salt.
Grammar is the difference between knowing your crap, and knowing you’re crap.
A .gif is worth a thousand words.

turns out stapling a hellfire to a 6/6 body is pretty good in a minion heavy format
