All I want to play is Shudderwock and now that's pretty gimped. Wasn't that good to begin with so didn't take much to kill it. So I'm sad. But, I do understand that some folks out there found the deck to be aggravating to play against. So, I can see why Blizz did it.
What I don't really understand is why Blizz thought it would be fun for me to face 60% Hunters on the ladder. Facing a Shudderwock deck every 30 matches might have been aggravating but how does that compare to this Hunter deluge?
The nerfs wouldn't be that bad if it wouldn't mean everyone just netdecks the next "big windeck" like otkpriest now. Just cancelling out certain metadeck with hard nerfs isn't good for te game perse, mark my words!
They forget to nerf UI! Kappa. A nerf deathstalker rexxar would have been great, at least after rotation hunter should be ok, just a bit sad to wait but it s ok.
Crafted Captain Greenskin for the newly meta Kingsbane
*wake up to nerfs*
Thanks for making a deck meta for like a week and wasting my dust Blizzard.
Well, you best be glad this isnt mtg. A card gets banned and you lost hundreds on your deck as the card values drop. Shouldve been smarter in your crafting decisions as kingsbane was the #1 most obvious nerf
They did great and really fixed what was broken, only destroying druid in the process. Keep in mind though that they see few expansions ahead, as they're developing them, so let's just hope druid will get better with the next release. Every decision has a downside, but I think they made the right call.
Good but not great. Hunter should have been nerfed as well. It's the most popular and best all around class in the game. It's kind of like the last balance changes where they left Druid completely alone despite Druid being the strongest class. Didn't make a whole lot of sense to me but w/e.
Now Jade Blossom is literally a better card than Wild Growth
You sure about that? A late topdeck you want an overpriced 1/1 over an overpriced cycle?
Pay 3 to draw a card is imo better only in a situation when you ran out of steam. Sure, pay 3 to get a 1/1 isn't much better either in many situations. Both seems equally bad now xD
I don't see how people can see the meta, completely dominated by hunter decks, and think the nerfs were good or great. They were woefully uneven at best.
The only thing I disagree with was nerfing both Wild GrowthandNourish, which feels excessive to me. Ramp was never a problem before Ultimate Infestation came out, and that card will be leaving Standard soon enough.
I thought all the nerfs were great but nerfing the ramp mechanic does seem excessive. Nourish used to be used only as card draw until UI was printed. Wild growth wasn't an auto include either because it's bad tempo vs agro.
Oh well, now there's room to see gonk and mulchmunchers instead of Togwaggle and malygoose
Dusted Kingsbane before Rastakhan, felt like a dummy, then this. Also meaningful Druid nerfs? FeelsGoodMan
Use him in pirate tempo and odd rogue, no harm is done!

Changes were great, made me excited for the game for the game again.
Although they could have gone a step further and nerfed Lesser Emerald Spellstone. Oh well.
I voted ok just because I don't think Nourish AND Growth deserved the nerfhammer. Mostly Growth.

...voted for bad, because the most problematic class, huntards, has even been buffed!

It's impressive how people are always complaining, no matter what they get

Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.

The changes are decent I would say.
