Knife Juggler should be a good choice in decks that play many cheap minions, but with 3 Attack, it is played almost universally. We’re reducing Knife Juggler’s Attack from 3 to 2, so this card will move into a more specialized role in the decks that include it, instead of always being among the best choices for a 2 mana-cost minion.
Not a big change, I must say that it doesn't change almost anything. IMO the problem wasn't his stats, but his ability to combo with cards like Unleash the Hounds. I guess replaceing word "summon" with word "play" would be better way to nerf it, but we'll see. Anyway, I think this will still see enough play.
I think this one is OK, I have always liked Knife Juggler as a card as it is one of the cards you can build a deck around with any class. I guess its OK, could have been worse.
It will still be played, the ability is the reason you play it, not the 3 attack. At least the card did not end up like arcane golem and get pretty much deleted thankfully.
This is absolutely retarded. This card is probably the most problematic after the Druid's Combo and yet is received the least impactful nerf. Blizzard doesn't really know how to balance this game
Knife Juggler is receiving a nerf!
Really wanted the RNG out...but better than nothing.
Vision without action is a dream. Action without vision is a nightmare.
Could be a better nerf, for sure.
This 1 attack less doesn't change much. It's a shame.
Always Squelch.

Certainly less playable. I like it.
It is a reasonable nerf.
I still think Knife Juggler will see play despite this nerf, unless they introduce a more op 2 drop that is.
Busting Open Card Packs!

I really like Knife Juggler as a minion I am REALLY happy they kept the card alive :) it's a good nerf.
I can hear reynad getting triggered right now.
I returned to this game much like how a recovering alcoholic can relapse.

who cares about the nerf ? -1 atk isn't doing much...
still playable... still good :)
S U P E R !!
The best nerf was too reduce the life poll to 1, so if the juggle misses you can ping it and be done with it.
Wont change much. Still an autoinclude in the decks that ran him so far.
This card deserved nerf. It's still playable, but not op.
My custom Expansion: Wrath of The Lich King
I like the nerf, still maintaing the juggler's flavour but making it a bit less punishing not killing him
Whoever designed Jade Idol and thought it was a good and healthy card for the game has clearly never played HS.

Good they left the effect as is, its one of the only powerful effects that rewards players for not just throwing things out on curve.
Well, it can now be Shadow Word: Horror'd. Guess that's nice.
Will still be played in aggro, because Dire wolf Alpha, Abusive Sergeant and Lance carrier still good. At least we're saying goodbye to spiders.
Not sure if hyped yet.
