Just because it has been a popular card, doesn't mean it should go on the chopping block. Ancient of Lore has great value, but nothing game-breaking (I don't recall seeing posts crying for AoL nerfs). The new Druid legendary better be worth it.
This card DID NOT deserve a nerf. Druid is the class without decent AOE or hard removal, this, combo and ramp cards were keeping it alive, but they took two of this...
goodbye druid... blizzard hates you so much... :)
S U P E R !!
good thing I got a golden one from season reward a while back. Those dusts will come in handy.
Way worse than azure drake. Why not at least lower the cost to 6?
This card is exponentially weaker than Azure Drake now. I dont think it will be played much.
THIS CARD IS TRASH NOW. arcane intellect, 3 mana draw 2 cards, therefore draw one card is 1.5 mana. which means that it's a 5.5 mana for a dumb 5/5 body. it's complete trash now WTF
Nooooo, the card is fine the way it was.
People are saying "7 mana 5/5 draw a card, its garbage". Wrong.
Design wise it is an OK card because of the flexibility implied on Choose One. Which represents around 0.5 to 1 mana of the value. It may not see as much play as before but that's what a nerf is about, the card is not dead as Blade Flurry though.
pffft, I'll just be running Azure Drake then...
Why is is so hard for Blizzard to adjust cards to a level where they are balanced? It's always like this - card too strong? Let's make it too weak instead! That's a great idea! They got Knife Juggler right, but that was about it. All they had to do to Ironbeak Owl was stop it being a Beast.
Ancient of Lore should cost 6. Keeper of the Grove is balanced at 2/3 for a class card costing 4. Force of Nature could make 1/1s with Charge at 5, or 2/2s at 7; cut Charge, dust the card.
And then they do all 3 at the same time? Remind me what else Druid did that was viable outside the Combo that it was necessary to scrap 2 cards and significantly weaken another? Beasts? Minion horde? Aggro only "worked" while GvG was around. I'm surprised they didn't nerf Swipe as well!
i wonder if i should keep 1 lore in my collection. yes azure drake looks better, but probably the flexibility of being able to heal will really make difference especially if facehunter is very popular
Time is money, friend.
For all you guys comparing this to Azure Drake, seriously, you purposely forgot that it has a choose one option, which itself is around 1 mana . Well done Blizzard ,well done .
You talking to me ?
They should have buffed the heal to 7 instead of 5. I think it would have been bang on the money then with balance.
Maybe Nourish will be druid's new card draw engine after this demolishing but fair nerf
Whoever designed Jade Idol and thought it was a good and healthy card for the game has clearly never played HS.
Nerf bat swung way too hard here. Should be 6 mana. There is no literally no reason to run this over Azure Drake.
No point playing this over Azure Drake anymore.
Thing is this card is supposed to be versatile . If you want to draw cards go nourish or Azure but in its current state was insane value and auto include. You should not be able to both be versatile to fit situations, for example healing vs aggro, and still be that insane value when you draw. Just my opinion
You talking to me ?
