    posted a message on FINALLY!!! FINALLY!!! NERFS ARE COMING!!!

    It is good that they are doing something but I am certain it won't be enough to contain DH. The most broken thing about DH in my opinion is that you can do a million things on the same turn very effectively. Some of the examples are:

    -Stiltstepper Draw plus INSANE damage

    -Chaos Strike draw plus deals damage

    -Consume Magic silence plus draw

    -Soulshard Lapidary develop board plus deal a FUCKTON of Damage

    -Marrowslicer set up fragment effects, deal another FUCKTON of damage over 2 turns

    -Glaivebound Adept develop Board while you deal damage

    Additionally it has some of the best draw cards in the game with Skull of Gul'dan and Acrobatics (which is just a way better Arcane Intellect). And here lies another big problem: As long as Skull of Gul'dan exists in its current form changes like a 1 mana increase to Blade Dance do very little since it reduces the cost by 3 (so its still 0 when drawn from skull). 

    I really hope I am wrong but in my opinion almost 100% of the really broken stuff remaind as it was so I doubt we will see much changing on ladder...

    Even though I like Tickatus I agree that it really limits your ability to play decks which try to go for longer games.

    But still: DH is just badshit crazy. Its ability to draw, clear boards and deal insane amounts of damage, often in a single turn is unparalled in HS.

    i will try it tomorrow but I am not super excited. never liked arena that much and the whole dungeon run concept has been recycled a little to often for my taste so lets see how fresh it actually feels. 

    i am not sure how they are going to handle the re-introduction of wild cards. from a crafting point of view it is probably not a big deal since there will be only a finite amount of good cards from a given wild expansion (most people will have the good ones anyway) but for completely new players it might be a bit much to collect cards from multiple years of content. I am not sure for example whether you can craft the cards from wild adventures or whether you still need to buy the entire wing for gold/money. that would hurt pretty bad if you are only looking for specific cards. maybe they will start to give out some of the wild stuff for free (should have been done some time ago imo, especially for the first couple of expansions/adventures).

    Blizz needs to do something about some wild decks. Mech and secret synergies are way out of hand and are going to dominate forever unless something is done about it. I understand that wild is supposed to be the place were you can play ALL old cards but does that mean that some synergies just are allowed to grow stronger over time while the rest is just not good enough? I played around 20 wild games in platinum today 17 of them were either vs secret mage or some sort of mech synergie. Its just not fun and I don't think it needs to be like this.

    They seem to go to great length at the moment to avoid any sort of public reaction. They disallowed post game interviews, gamer cams and they cancelled the Nintendo Switch Launch event for Overwatch. They seem to be pretty anxious. Blizzcon is going to be interesting....

    It is getting worse and worse: At first we got the Jaina nerf, than other card designs got changed or even renamed in some cases and now we get a glimpse of what the increasing influence of the chinese government (the chinese population probably couldnt care less) will do to the Entertainment industry in the future. We can only hope that enough people will speak up and put their money where their mouth afterwards.

    Card is really fun to play but playing against it feels terrible and hopeless at times.

    Pretty hard to kill as well if you don't have board. I would be surprised if it does not see play.
