Since release I've been playing around with comboing Jandice Barov and Khadgar in my janky wild big value mage and I noticed that until the latest hotfix/patch only one of the four minions it would summon had the blue glow of Jandice Barov's 'dies when it takes damage' effect, now both copies of that card, or two of the four total minions generated by the combo have the debuff effect.
Am I misremembering things or has anyone else noticed this change too? I haven't seen it listed in any patch notes or blue posts.
So was this an unintended change or a stealth nerf? It was hardly a broken combo at 7 mana compared to a lot of what is out there.
Jandice is a pretty bad card without comboing it in some way for extra value. Thoughts?
It was in the post about the hotfix that this was unintentional and therefore being fixed with the server side patch.
That being said I don't think khadgar + Jandice is too strong and needed a nerf, but considering Khadgar summons exact copies I think it's only fair that the one you pick to die from 1 damage has that attribute copied to the one summoned by him.

Yeah, mechanically I don't think it is an unreasonable change.
It just sucks because the card is bad. I opened a golden one and was trying to get some use out of it. More dust now I guess. :/
I mean she's not a bad card at all? She's a great turn 5 play and she puts a ton of stats on the board. The Khadgar combo is nice, but not necessary for the card to be good.

It was an intentional 'bug fix' implemented together with the changes in the discover mechanism:

I can't believe I missed that, I even read that post. :facepalm:
