Shudderwock was my free legendary, although I'd like full refund (who would't want free dust tbh), its not gonna happen.
Because it wasn't "nerfed":
Neither the stats nor the effect are being changed, only some gameplay mechanics related to this card are being fixed since they weren't working as intended. In this case the animation speed and the amount of battlecries the card could cast.
This isn't a nerf at all. You can still run the combo. This just changes the animation speed and number of battlecries a single Shudderwock will trigger. Normally you don't even OTK with a single Shudderwock anyways, you merely threaten it with multiple 1-mana copies on the followup turn. So who cares if it's capped at 20 when you play 4 more of them.

Same goes for life drinker
So they nerfed shudder to a cap of 20 and no dust what cheap devs. Own your mistake and give us our dust back.

Definitely a fan of the animation speed up. I'm just going to use Murmurring Elemental and Grumble Worldshaker anyways, so OTK still is fine.
I'm Nate and I enjoy writing. I got kicked off of my school newspaper so I figured I'd bring my passion to my favorite game.
Why would they give us dust back? nothing about the card itself has been nerfed
Cap of 20 is not related to the otk deck at all it exist to prevent other decks.
Seems like a solid change, this isn't really a nerf, so a dust refund doesn't make sense, its just a quality of life improvement.
Thanks Blizzard for very surprisingly not killing a fun making thing in your game. Shudderwock decks are far away of being T1 in current meta anyway.
Does anyone know when this update happens? So sick of Shudderwock animations at this point.
