BG changes look pretty cool, excited for those. I don't really see anything to address the non-stop aggro of constructed... secret passage nerf won't cnahnge much, and honestly the card still looks more than strong enough to play anyway..all other classes ignored.
Why buff that shaman card to create totems but not buff some of the low mana taunts and healing...or board clears?...or any sort of stall?...anything at all? Meh.
Buff is when they make the card better (or more powerful) and nerf is when they make a card worse (or less powerful). In general, Blizzard will allow full dust refunds for only cards that are nerfed.
Passage could be frustrating, but it was alright when a lot of other stuff was super powerful too. Darkglare, for example, can be really toxic, specially the new Pen Flinger version. Acolyte had too much health for the swingness it can provide.
The only glaring missing thing is that Druid didn't get anything nerfed. If you're going to nerf both aggro decks of the meta, bringing Druid down a notch as well would seem reasonable to balance it out.
And hopefully they are keeping an eye on Turtle Mage.
Are people still playing Druid? Seriously? I forgot about that deck. Last I checked Druid was sitting with an overall 49% win rate... But, yeah.. Nerf away 😂😂
No changes to Paladin or Hunter? Argent Braggart, Blessing of Authority, Devout Pupil are all fair and balanced? Voracious Reader and Tour Guide are good to go too?
The win rates are saying Librams and Face Hunter are topping out almost 56% in every rank and damn near 60% for bronze to gold. Who the hell cares about a "buff" to Archwitch Willow right now...
To me it seems like they're trying to give Paladin their time to shine after being so underpowered for so long but i think they're way overtuned. The class steamrolls too hard to the point where smorc aggro like stealth rogue and Face Hunter seem like the only viable counters.
Surprised how quickly Darkglare got nerfed seeing as it's only just started competing amongst the big boys. Willow I guess is buffed in being able to play it a turn earlier but 2/2 stat change is quite harsh. I have it golden so thats insta DE lucky me!!
Nice to see passage nerf, Shaman needs more buffs obviously and druid needs to be looked at, amazed they've left it honestly. If any class was dominating as hard as shaman is statistically suffering it would get changed much quicker, just get on with it already.

Well, as always, I craft a deck, and it gets nerfed within a matter of days. RIP Darkglare Warlock. Was a cool deck while it lasted.
It cost got reduced to 2 mana, it's a buff bro.
Ups, it also gives just 1 mana crystal. Don't mind my mistake.
Is the Archwitch balance a buff or nerf? I have a golden copy... Fun card, but I don't care about having gold versions..
What`s the difference between buff and nerf?
Buff is when they make the card better (or more powerful) and nerf is when they make a card worse (or less powerful). In general, Blizzard will allow full dust refunds for only cards that are nerfed.
Not sure maybe look it up
Good nerfs.

"Buff" on Willow won't do anything, IMO.
No changes to Druid? Is this a joke?

Priest got 2 nerfs and Druid 0.
We live in a strange world.
Good nerfs

Shaman is in the toilet? Buff one of its terrible minions to make it somewhat less terrible and watch that win rate skyrocket!
Tiny nerf, big buff.
Getting that play out a turn earlier is more significant than losing a couple of stats.
Uh, yeah I'm kinda confused Argent Braggart didn't get nerfed at all?

They aren't giving out full dust for Willow. They listed the nerfed cards in the fine print. Darkglare, Acolyte, Passage
