This is completely personal and I really don't care about all the claims that it is a tier 3 deck. I'm glad they nerfed gala rogue although I'm not sure it's dead and that's the problem, because I would like to see it burn to the ground. Much like spell druid that those type of decks are holding slower decks down. I think miracle rogue back in the days was a healthier choice. As for the Rogue deck I've most enjoyed it has to be deathrattle rogue.
As a Gala Rogue player (not to mention I play highlander version the most), this nerf seems like a ton of bs to me.
Nerfing classes that aren't even close to tier 1 (Rogue, Mage), nerfing DH AGAIN (I think it was fine at this point, actually) and leaving the most opressive deck - Highlander Hunter. I literaly have around 10% W/R vs Highlander Hunter, with tons of of broken cards, yet they leave it and nerf pretty much every other class lol.
What are you talking about? They nerfed Hunter too, can't you see the DQ Alex nerf?
in highlander hunter most of the time you don't play the alex it is like extra spice in deck cannot be considered a nerf that hinders the higlander hunter.

King Krush will do , especially funny with the +2+2, so instead of Alex you can look for some more sweet synergys. Highlander Hunter its biggest strength was always the overall Deck Synergy.
Seriously these nerfs to DH and Rogue are HUGE, so Hunter, Warrior, Paly and Priest are really capitalizing.
Well they did touch the adept, it was a 7/4. About the Yogg box, I agree with you.
Stats dont matter, its the oppressing Battlecry making playing against that minion almost unbearable.
Stats DO matter, but the adept got a small nerf. On the other hand, the Warglaives nerf makes the adept a lot worse since it was usually played on T6 after the Warglaives. So with all these nerfs DH will be in a lot worse situation, but I think they will be OP again in a month with the new cards.
Hunter is definitely gonna dominate the Meta for the next few weeks until the new expansion comes out. Dragonqueen Alexstraza wasnt really that much of an important piece in Highlander Hunter. Most games are pretty much decided by turn 7 or 8 anyway. At that stage of the game, most times youre just finishing off your opponent. Not look for any swing potentials.
Exactly, you'd need to reduce its cost now to make it a strong play, there aren't too many Classes who have access to reducing Minions Mana Cost, yea Galakrond Rogue, but naahh...way too Casino. The Druid Dormant guy is terribly bad, so there isn't anything right now to save Dragonqueen.

Funny.....they STILL didn't manage to touch two of the major Meta Offenders in the form of Glaivebound Adept and Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron xD

I am really happy with these nerfs. I am so sick of the DH dominated meta. Anything that shifts things up is good.
I would love to be able to play Pure Paladin or Totem Shaman or something a bit off-meta and feel like I at least have a fighting chance.

Now that the balance patch is live, how's the new meta? How common is demon hunter? How often do you still see dragonqueen alex played?

I'm running Krush now for DQ, will see how that works out, you could also replace her for Classic Alexstrasza.
My last 5 games have been 20 minute games vs. Gala priest, so i'm sot sure how fun this meta will be...oh well! The Scholomance cards look cool.
Alex become unplayable, a much better nerf will be 10 manas instead the increase for 1 the dragons.
9 manas card, no taunt, highlander restriction and now you can't play the dragon can maybe save you from lethal kill the card entirely.
Maybe a high draw druid or warlock deck can use her but that is it.
