Hearthpwn

Dr. Boom, I'm SI:7

Actually still a very decent zoo card (especially if you're new and don't have the resource to get Malchezaar's Imp, etc.) I think this is one of Blizzard's best balance changes that didn't entirely ruin the card but also kept it from auto-include. 

golden version powercreep!

still auto-include in zoo???

The nerf here is actually pretty deserved. The +2 attack and the 2/1 stats made for some efficient burst damage and worthwhile early game trades. I've won a lot of games off of the things that this card has enabled.

Fun Fact: Blizzard had this as a 1/1 originally and buffed it to it's current state, only to nerf it back to its original state. Well played.

It will still see more play than Leper Gnome, +2 for trading is much better than 2 to the face. I was surprised they didn't change this card during the last update.

Why? Just why? un-nerf Maggot!

This probably needed the nerf with the efficient trades it enabled.

Really? This is the icon of aggro and some midrange decks. I dont think it was really necessary.

The Leper Gnome nerf

fair nerf. 

Get in there and fight, maggot gachiGASM

Get in there and fight, maggot!

 The NEW face of  SMOrc!

Fun fact, this was the first card I ever crafted.

A common classic card? Well, at least you picked a good one, I guess

have you ever not liked golden animation?

I think this guy's VA is Jamieson Price

The way his voice sounds like it's about to crack when he goes "Suffer my wrath!", I had a drill sergeant whose voice used to almost-crack in the exact same way, really love the voicework.
