Even without Skull of Gul'dan, it can be 9 damage for 6 mana or 18 damage for 8 mana, if opponent has a big minion or some minions on board. On top of potential a lot of face damage, there will be some board clear too.
Like I said Wrathscale Naga is the card to deal with and reducing it to two damage will not break it.
Perhaps, but a card like Heistbaron Togwaggle with the draw three cards and reduce their cost to 0 is still around for 9 mana. I know it also req. a lackey, but that is not a hard combo to pull.

Heistbaron is conditional and it’s also a Legendary card. SoG is 4 mana cheaper, and is a Rare. I rest my case.

Playing meme decks/characters does not entitle you to call a meta bad.

Skull of Gul'dan does not give 0 mana cards though, but I agree its a strong card.
Wrathscale Naga combos is just something that you can't counter, except to have a clear board.
Wraithscale isn't the worst offender in DH by far, but I will say, it felt really bad (at the time - afterwards I could only laugh about it) to go from 18 to 0 when my opponent played Wraithscale + the 6 rusher card into my Coilfang (the 9/5 rush side) - all 6 hit my face, and I lost a game that I was going to win on the next turn. :-S
But yeah, Skull of Guldan is probably the worst offender (it's usually rare for people to play card draw on turn 5 when they have other options - but people will do it for Skull, and I know I actually keep it if it's on the left side of my hand during the mulligan (or if the cards to the left of it will almost certainly be played in a timely manner). Antaen and Priestess are both quite good, but they're largely just warping the meta towards warlock and highlander (for Sac Pact).

Wrathscale Naga will be nerfed to deal 2 damage. I said it first? ;)
Too strong with Skull of Gul'dan + Command the Illidari and to some degree with Coordinated Strike.

*mistake post*
Skull of Gul'dan will cost more is my prediction

I'd worry more about these two and how insanely OP they are atm. No combo required, they win games singlehandedly.
