Charge is receiving a nerf!

You can find more information on the upcoming 6.1.3 Patch Nerfs by visiting the news post.

While we enjoy seeing players explore combo styles of play and will continue to support it in the future, we’ve seen in the past that the ability to give Charge to minions that don’t normally have it has been particularly problematic and also heavily restricts future cards. We’ve redesigned the card Charge in a way that provides opportunities for minion combat, but does not enable strategies that intend to win without allowing opponents to interact.

YEEEEAH, screw you unskilled OTK Worgen Warriors!

"While we enjoy seeing players explore combo styles of play and will continue to support it in the future" Biggest bullshit they ever said, there will never be strong combo decks in this goddamn game, blizzard will make sure of that, curvestone is the way to go.

Rating 2/5: This is more of a Master of Disguise - Nerf: Not really necessary, but i can understand that this card can limit the design space.

Also not so sure if this is exactly a nerf or maybe even enables some new Deck. The reduction to 1 mana makes this card actually playable, and the minion can't attack the hero only on the turn he charges, in the following turn it can attack the hero again. This makes this card maybe actually an very interresting removal tool, especially since Execute got nerfed too!

This will actually be kinda cool I think... doubles as removal / protection from soft removal. Wouldn't be surprised to see this see some play.

Kills an OTK Deck but opens the door for new Trade options to Warrior.me Likey.

Really dislike the nerf. It destroys an whole deck, which wasn't near to overpowered and was really interesting to play. I don't really see it limiting design space as Master of Disguise. I just don't like the way Blizzard treats combo decks, I don't want this game to become a game of who has the best minions and curve.

Glad this is happening, all of you warrior OTK can learn how to play a new deck.

Finally! R.I.P. Worgen Decks.

The upside to this is a nice buff to Magnataur Alpha. I can see it seeing play now

Argh, tough call. This nerf is obviously because of worgen OTK. Anyway, people are whining like worgen OTK is some braindead draw and answer until you draw combo deck, while it's one of the hardest decks in the game and NOT BROKEN imo. The funny part is that according to statistics some of the people who say this play decks like midrange hunter and aggro shaman.

Anyway, while I do aggree it wasn't fun and interactive, RIP another deck that actually takes skill. You go visit old patron in heaven.

The handful of skillful decks remaining are getting destroyed one after another.

I really do miss the post-Blackrock meta.

Only change I don't agree with. Yeah OTK is annoying, but this kills an entire archtype. Don't approve.

This is not really a nerf. It's a full change!

It's like adding a new card in the game... it will create new synergies. And guess what, the Worgen is quite good with it now. Like other card with Enrage effects.

I'm glad they removed the OTK. It's not aligned with the spirit of Hearthstone imo.

+1 for this change. 

I do not like this nerf, it seems they want to stray away from combo decks and as a Rogue player that worries me :/

This card is unplayable.

I am on the fence on this change.  I am really hoping we get something like Giant Sand Worm for warrior or even interesting new cards that are looking to trade with creatures in order to do something, kind of like The Boogeymonster.

goodbye otk warrior
