I don't think charge is a problem right now - The real problem is going to be all those combo decks in the next expansion - Hopefully we get a new neutral dirty rat.
Charge minions are currently in a pretty good place right now. The most used ones are things such as Charged Devilsaur(and he's only charge if he's summoned but not played, like in recruit hunter), Krush(Literally only in recent hunter deck variants, also like recruit hunter) and Leeroy. None of these cards are particularly powerful, and none of them are really a problem.
If anything, weapons are stronger than charge minions when it comes to going face at the moment, as they're typically tougher to remove(Needing very specific cards, instead of any minion with attack higher than health, or a removal/damage spell), and can attack immediately, and I don't think weapons are really a problem at the moment either.
An idea occurred to me just now, and I think it would make the game more fun and interactive: replace all instances of the keyword "Charge" with "Rush".. What do you guys think?
As mostly just 4 fun player: Yes, plz. Or Remove atleast charge from all cards except the classic set(though, Imo Stonetusk boar should be changed to rush)
in hindsight, i wish there was some way I could tell what each person's primary class was so I could ignore all the hunter votes that are like "megoface tauntischeat make all beasts charge RAWR SMOrc"
Lost a few brain cells reading that...
Did you lose your last game to get to the rank 15 floor to a leeroy? Damn, should've played around it.
Anyway, if the thread doesn't go your way either leave or troll, never attack people with different opinions in a condescending way, makes you look bad...
I don't understand how it would hurt the game. What is your definition of hurting the game? The only effect I could see this having on the meta is putting the game more in the center of the board (so-to-speak) and I don't think that's a bad thing at all - do you?
Teching against aggro is a joke nowadays, if you remove charge some aggro decks will just die. If aggro decks die the control decks that you (and me) like to play will serve no purpose. Moreover combo decks will have less counterplay and the most consistent combo deck will just rule the meta = you will likely face the same two decks for months.
As a control player I strongly support aggro decks or I couldn't play my favorite decks.
I hate Leeroy and I would move him to the Hall of Fame, but it needs to keep the charge and so do the rest of the cards. If you remove charge from Leeroy, what's next, make Fireball not hit face? Cause spells do not care about taunts.
However, I do suspect that Blizzard wishes that, in retrospect, all Charge minions had Rush instead since day 1.
One other thought occurs : would it be too much to ask for a Molten Giant-esque de-nerfing of Warsong Commander to "Your minions with 2 or fewer attack have Rush".
grommash wouldn't be useless at all. he would trade x 2 in most cases. he just wouldn't be tons of burst damage to face anymore which is kinda the point for suggesting this change in the first place.
I admit that rebalancing the charge cards stats would take some development time, but that doesn't suggest that it would hurt the game in any way.
I like to kill people with Grom. Stop trying to turn him into a trader.

I have a better idea: replace the text button "Play" with the text button "Roulette". With a chance of 50% you can win.
One day this game will stop existing. I can't wait.

Obviously, I disagree.

I think that all legendary minions should remain with charge, but everything else should be reworded into rush.
For what profit is it to a man, if he gains the world and loses his own soul?
