Now that there's no obvious 24-damage burst play to work towards, razakus should be much more interesting to play against... or someone will find a new combo that does almost as much damage and it'll be slightly less awful

Will Priest even play Velen anymore now that they can't OTK with it anymore?

It is a good change. I had him during MSG but never played the popular highlander deck as it seemed boring. I was also lacking 2 legendaries and wasn't willing to sacrifice dust as I know(and now you do) what happens with popular high winrate decks.

Thank god.  People will still play it because it's still really good with anduin without being absurd like it is currently.  It's a well thought out nerf for once, unlike ones that just increase the mana cost by 1 or basically making it unplayable like the corridor creeper nerf.  

The nerf is good, but is the condition really necessary now? 

Only if you DE

The effect is still powerful enough in Wild because you use Spawn of Shadows to combo. The now lower damage output per turn might mean a rise slower decks such as Reno Mage/Warlock with Cube/Control Warlock taking the number top spots. Jade Druid becomes an even worse match up and aggro gets a bit better since you won't be able to weave in the 2 free heal every turn.

I guess this is good...it only effects standart players for one season, so we could care less anyways, but wild surely needed this change to happen.

I have never understood the hate for rasa priest (RP). It’s powerful but not unbeatable. I play mostly wild and I love the deck and any combo deck. I love the chances to the other cards, but not raza. There are much you can do against RP. Play a lot of big minions, dirty rat and more. I’m concerned that warlock now will be god tier in both standard and wild, as they didn’t get hit at all.

You are all.so happy about this and cubelock wqs absolutrly untoched, prepare for a 60% warlock ladder 

Lol@ the people saying this is playable. This destroys RazaAnduin pretty hard. It will take an extra two turns to kill someone with this change.

Never liked playing Highlander Priest anyway so I will definitely disenchant it.

Do you get a dust refund for the card or only if u DE it? 

 Yes. 

Great nerf. 

 But u only get the dust if you DE it? It's not like back then with sylvanas and ragnaros, where u got dust and could keep the card?

oh thank geebus

This nerf is great. While I love the synergy with Shadowreaper Anduin, I found it really disheartening that people played it as their only win condition rather than as a value card. This ensures it still has synergy with the DK while turning off the ability to do complete bullshit burst wins with it.
