So one card is getting gutted: My guess: Mindender Illucia goes to 10 mana or to battlecry: your charge minions have +1 attack or something like that. She won't be missed
3/6 Battlecry: You may play cards in your opponent's hand as if they were your own unitl the end of the turn.
Still does similar things. Not at all good as a time warp for aggro now. Not even that good as an anti-combo card due to the 4 cost. Effectively killed. Even giving her vanilla stats doesn't make her worth playing. More of a late game value generator now.
Would love to slow down Quest DH a bit, maybe require 5 draws for first activation.
Really not sure how, or whether, to nerf warlock again, because I've been effectively farming them. Maybe target either their draw engine, mana cheat, or healing. It's insane that a class is super-strong in all three of those aspects at once. Without one of those three, the fatigue win-con of the quest is much slower/weaker.
Maybe nerf the stats (or cost) of every Questline 7/7 (probably not Guff).
With the recent dev reaction to Thijs's crying on Twatter and Zeddy being a Priest hater and what he thinks about the killed card here it's probably Illucia.
That'd mean they've just made Priest (not talking Shadow as that one's not Priest but Huntard in robes) even more shit to play.
Yes, I've no trust in that team to not just duck Priest in the butt and call it a day.
Zeddy is the most salty/toxic dude out there. All he does is complain. Hes a bottom tier HS streamer whos only relevance is when he complains.If he is the white knight for the HS community, then I dont want to belong to that clique, so give me trolls and goblins all day rather than that virtue signalling dweeb. He was also responsible for getting Zalae banned from GM for a year, the day before the big tournament was about to start...all over unproven claims from Zalaes ex girlfriend. He went on a social medie storm calling for Zalae's head all based on 1 persons claim!! It became a modern day witch burning, and I lost all respect for Zeddy after that episode.
And by the way, hes not the only guy trying to make HS a better game. In fact, many streamers, players and pros tweet, suggest very frequently, trying to make the game we all love better.

White-knighting for Zalae, and crapping on Zeddy, isn't any better.

He isn't salty, neither he is truly toxic. He plays a role and makes money.
Lets look at another streamer - Solem. Solem is salty, he dislikes the current state of the game, he more or less left despite being a kinda popular wild streamer. It is an understandable position. He never went as far as Zeddy because... because his emotions and opinions are genuine.
I am very confident Zeddy just looks - "Hey, what Reddit whines about today? Oh, this. I'll make a video supporting this whining and get sweet views."
How does he know what's in the next balance patch ?
Content Creators for Hearthstone get the info early. That's how some of them have videos that go up immediately when the Patch or details are announced. Even Regis has said in some of his patch notes videos that they get it early.
I have been watching Zeddy critically for a while. He offers very little constructive criticism and rarely looks at the game as a whole i.e. considering the impact of changes he's asking about on the overall meta. Thinking more than just one step ahead is too much for him, there's always 'checks' and no 'balances' with him. There's a place for every type of streamer as long as there is audience, I guess, but I prefer more constructive approaches (and even if you are feeling negative, there are ways to express this and I think Kibler is probably the best example of how that's done best). These are arguably better for the game and for communicating what you want more effectively.

I know, If Regis or Kibler had said that I would believe them.
Zeddy is probably the guy Blizzard hates the most, there is absolutely no way a blizzard employee leaked ANYTHING to him
I hope they don't kill Illucia. Sure she can cock up your plans, but you need to think about when to play her, she can backfire spectacularly and she's not an auto include in any deck and the oponent can play around her (to a point).
She also has the highest impact at 10 mana so is actually quite slow. I know some people use her from an aggro perspective to block the opponents turn, but I still think there must be another way to keep a rather unique effect.

Zeddy is blacklisted by Blizzard so whatever info he allegedly has is from an indirect source. If the rumor is legit then he must have been in contact with some GM or another streamer that the devs actually speak to. i agree that Regis and Kibler are more reliable sources than him but they are also too loyal and/or classy to go around spreading any exclusive leaks. This is not to say anything Zeddy is saying is true, but it’s also not impossible that it could be.

Someone leaked for him to start working on his video in advance and to publish the video just right after official anouncement.,
Zeddy is a massive universe sized cunt. I'll take the ban.
Oh okay, this is all fake, thanks
What balance patch are you referring to specifically? New balance patch notes haven’t been released yet.
Here you have zeddy talking about the patch during todays stream
he says there are 6 nerfs 7 buffs, where 1 of the nerfs killing the card completely...
which will be out at 20th of the month
we shall see I guess..
So one card is getting gutted: My guess: Mindender Illucia goes to 10 mana or to battlecry: your charge minions have +1 attack or something like that. She won't be missed
I hope they kill Celestial Alignment. It's a very unfun card to face.
Mindrender Illucia
Cost 4
3/6
Battlecry: You may play cards in your opponent's hand as if they were your own unitl the end of the turn.

I'd nerf Raise Dead (cost mana, not health) and Lightning Bloom (refresh mana; would slow down Celestial Alignment and nutty shaman openers).
Would love to slow down Quest DH a bit, maybe require 5 draws for first activation.

we all know they are killing questline warlock one of the more metawarping cards ever
