Played 2-3 arena runs today and i'd say almost every deck the opponent had multiple copies of these cards and it was almost always such a huge swing that the game is pretty much over every time you play them.
Even in decks i played that i got my bonemare/fungalmancer out I pretty much won. They just seem broken in arena. And ever since the recent arena updates I feel like i'm seeing them A LOT more often in decks.
No, it would not be completely fixed. But i do agree that something has to be done about Fungalmancer, in a curvestone meta, where being on the board wins you the game, Fungalmancer is right now probably even stronger card than Bonemare ever was when KFT released and that is saying something. It has to be moved to a higher tier power bucket.
I am in a very ''I want to strangle the Fungalmancer'' mood right now, but I don't think he should be completely removed from the arena. Though he most certainly needs to go to a higher tier.
And now when I think about it, I honestly cannot remember the last time I was massacred by a Bonemare. While the card is still really good, it just doesn't have the same impact it once had. More often than not, I pick something else instead (ofcourse that's from my personal experience).

Yeah, bonemare is a bit slow, you often times dont even go to T8 lol. T5 is all you need :)

Bone already was nerfed and passed often since it's in the top bucket against better cards. Fungalmancer while strong, is a way for you to not only seal a win, but also gives you a chance to catch up. It's a bit too strong right now so a move up in buckets would make it less effective.
Hmm, Fungalmancer surely is "winning more" in this tempo driven meta. With less spells/removal offered, more minions stick if not properly traded every turn, meaning Fungalmancer has more chances to show its "win more" condition. The remedy is we have to move our curve up to prevent the opponent from snowballing, leaving his/her Fungalmancer in hand near useless.
They just need to be moved up on the bucket system. Also bonemare isn't really that much of an issue. Turn 8 plays are supposed to be strong, nowhere nearly as oppressive as 7 mana bonemare.

I don't see nearly as many bonemares anymore in the arena. Often when I'm faced with the choice for bonemare, there's other cards that I want just as much or more available. It's still a really good card, but it's bucketed with comparable cards.
Fungalmancer, on the other hand, while I'm not sure that it's any better of a card, seems to always get offered against cards that are much crappier, so it gets picked more because it's competing with stuff that's usually inferior.

Am I wrong?

Thoughts?
No because there would be another card for people to complain about.

It would be better sure, definently not fixed though.

I'd rather let Fungalmancer stick around in a top bucket as oppose to some suspect BS cards like Primordial Glyph, Hallucination, Bone Drake, and the Notorious M.C.T (Mind Control Tech for all you non-rappers).
Also, can't overlook Giggling Inventor's impact on the tempo meta.
"Put 'em all in", they said. "You gon' be ballin", they said.
