Hearthstone Card Balance Changes to Come After the HCT Playoffs
Blizzard has announced that a balance change patch will hit after the HCT Summer Playoffs conclude. The playoffs are finished at the end of May, so we don't have too much longer to go!
No specific changes have been announced, though Iksar has mentioned some problematic cards.

In the weeks after The Witchwood, the Hearthstone team has been avidly reading your feedback and monitoring data at all levels of play. We agree with your concerns, and we’re planning some balance changes after the HCT Playoffs are finished at the end of May. We’re not quite ready to share the details, but we’ll provide an update once the specifics are finalized.

Thank you for your feedback, patience, and your support.
Cheers!
No more fucking excuses or delays. Nerf fucking call to arms NOW! 3 standard games this morning, all vs paladin, plus 2/4 in wild. ENOUGH!
nerf it to 5 mana, oh shit, that's a buff to odd paly :(
The recruit mechanic is wrong. Call to Arms, Possessed Lackey have both the recruit keyword. Spiteful Summoner is stronger then Battlecry: recruit a 10 cost minion.
I'm guessing Shadowstep will go under the radar again. The 2 mana reduction needs to go.
i think shadowstep needs to cost 2 mana and have a battlecry: refresh 2 mana crystals
If they will make this change before the HCT Summer Playoffs it become more exciting.
If anyone one of us think; they prepared the decks, combination, statistics : )
come on this is Hearthstone, RNG Rule them all
YOU GUYS, we all know what the real problem is right? It's warrior! I'm kidding but knowing Blizzard they will nerf some cards that no one saw as a problem.
To the posters wanting cube to be nerfed to only summon one copy of that minion such a change makes little sense. Except for acting as a more expensive Play Dead, with a 4/6 body attatched, that makes little sense. You may as well just run Umbra instead at that point.
It's really simple. Make the CHARGE on Doomguard a BATTLECRY.
If they dont nerf Spiteful Summoner or Lackey im uninstalling until next year.
Guldan DK: make it so that it only summons 1 copy of each (like the diamond spellstone) demon that died during the game, instead of a swarm of doomguards.
Spiteful: Mana cost increase or make it actually destroy the spell after it reveals it.
Quest Rogue: Euthanasia. Just pull the damn plug!
Guldan isnt the problem of why Cubelock is OP, Lackey allows Doomguard to be summoned with no drawback. If they are gonna nerf lackey i would make it so you Draw a Demon from your deck into your hand.
That would just make it a worse Sense Demons though.
Quest Rogue? Lol what?
How is that more cancer than Aggro Paladin and Hunters with Cubelocks and Handonoxes?
I destroyed it after I got it last year and it got nerfed (though quest for rouge was always very hard)
Now its at least comebackable
Good boy, now go play a control deck and you ll understand.
