A final idea is to make the 5/5 into 5 1/1s instead. It's hard to say how much worse this  would actually make the card, but it seems more thematic and would encourage token synergy rather than just jamming it in almost every druid build. Its also harder to have 5 free spaces on board and any aoe would handle it easily, so I think it would make it less oppressive in most situations. 

 If those 5 1/1's go unanswered in a token Druid list, it's GG.

As long I teched Skulking Geist into the deck, I'm feeling pretty good with my highlander priest against this card. 

 Highlander priest is the ONLY non-fatique deck where Geist can find a spot, and only cuz highlander decks have plenty of room for techs. The card is way too horrible to find a place in any other control deck, not to mention that Jade wins most games w/o even needing infinite idol value.

I think the card is fine as is.  The issue is that Druid had ultra-refined lists from the previous expansions that didn't see much change, while most other classes got cards that require deck building to be a bit more refined.  It'll take a bit more time for people to figure out how to refine the decklists from other classes and compete with Druid.

That being said, if it does end up being changed, I'd like to see it done creatively, like this:

"Draw 5 cards and Gain 5 Armor, then Choose One - Deal 5 damage, or summon a 5/5 Ghoul."

As we've seen with Firelands Portal, bundling direct damage with a good-ish minion is powerful because it serves as a massive tempo swing.  Separating those two (except when Fandral is on the field) wouldn't affect the main draw (heh) of playing the card, while encouraging critical thinking on whether the 5 damage should be fast or slow, depending on the situation.

Ancient of Lore was once a 5/5 body plus heal 5 or draw 2, for 7 mana. They considered that too good and nerfed it to draw 1. Seems a bit silly now.

Almost always I play non-Jade druid, 'coz IMO Jade is no fun

Nothing I'm gonna say will matter since when people got the idea of nerfing stuck in their head there is no going back and that card will get nerfed sometime in the future .

I just want to say that I really dislike how HS community is always complaining about everything :

Aggro is strong -> complaints

Combo is strong -> complaints

Good late game cards are printed -> complaints

It looks like no matter what the state of the game is a big part of the community is always unhappy and that seems wrong especially since the whole point of a video game is to give you a good entertainment not a headache .

I admit, I am salty too many times but I'm never salty about the state of the game, otherwise why keep playing it ??!

Just play the new nerubian card which increases spellcosts. Also counters innervate

its also been making druids fatigue themselves a lot 

Yes it needs to get nerfed. The correct amount of mana you should pay is 5!! either that or change everything to 10.............. 10/10 Ghoul, 10 cards, 10 damage, 10 armor ................

I think one way to nerf ultimate infestation would be to make a spell which negates any card draw effects for next 2-3 turns. 

Ultimate Infestation is a powerful spell because Druid can actually play it early in the game because can ramp using mire, nourish, wild growth. This can be devastating for the opponent.

i suggest to modify spell by adding the following condition:

enable only if your opponent has 10 manna crystals  

Case Closed

Something's wrong when you play kazakus, get a 10mana spell, and the druid's version is not only better, but he can also have two of them.

As a wild player, I can happily say that I have never encountered this monster of a card.  I tend to be of the opinion that if a card can't break wild, then it can't be OP.  Like Caverns Below never really mattered in wild - and I saw that attempted much more than infestation.  Caverns decks weren't even that good, but I did see how they skewed the meta and really over punished control, which is a problem.  But anyway, I understand that the cry-babies in standard do feel that standard is broken for the time being and feel bad for you guys :-)  Have a tissue.

This isn't a salt thread and for info I play rogue 

well this card has receive the it's fair share  controverseas although people calling in  neft I want to beg to differ is it really as op people say? Druid has the worst aoe in hearthstone not even better than rogue to say the least with having the best removal being swipe and aoe Druid only way of removing the board is through minion but is supplemented by ramp to help with that but recently due to nature of ultimate infestation and the addition of jade ramp card it's actually recommended if you keep on your opening hand crazy right keeping 10 mana card on your opening but I want to ask is keeping draw 5 hit 5 heal 5 spawn 5/5 really that good well you would be right but is it really that good ? But in a world that mages can kill you with 1hp lasting up 6 turn and jade Druid where it can spawn 16/16 for a mana?maybe it's not the card that is broken maybe is the way and speed you get to it I want propose that maybe innverant and jade blossam need to be check on because those two card makes it cheating this card on turn 6/7 very possible. And maybe this card isn't op just that the way people perceive this card as it's like a game over scenario does factor in

ps plz no hate 

Edit Opps lots of grammar mistake but im lazy to edit all of it again SOOoO have this instead

TLDR:Ultimate infestation isn't op because Druid lack aoe and use the board so having 5 stuff isn't a big deal but rather cards like innverate and jade blossom is really pushing the card

well so have ramp to right you know 5/5 but in the game and do extra damage for as asked five draw and shaman can be also a warlock. worst in a case with meta and stats so high should not game winning with hp and do a lot with armor and so. can me ask wow all these words so meta breaking and all the mana in my brain for is it good and write and me no understand no words?!
