Really good patch overall, lots of positive changes with the packs being given out and bug fixes and upcoming events.. My only criticism is that new players have to unlock casual mode I understand to some degree why that decision was made, since casual mode really isn't that casual/new-player friendly most of the time, but that highlights a problem with the casual format more than new players having the ability to choose that game mode. I would feel fairly confused if as a new player I entered a game and ranked mode was available, but casual mode was locked. This is extremely counter intuitive.

Not to be a dick, but...

"unnoticed"
> is a tier 2 deck that people still play frequently

I faced it fairly frequently on my climb to legend last month. Not as much as various warlock decks, but still a decent amount.

Tavern brawls have been fairly garbage for the last couple months. Just disappointing. Two unstable portal brawls in a row is just unbelievably low effort. Could you at least not regurgitate the same trash twice in a row? At the very least they could recycle a different brawl. 1 pack and I'm out.

Card's crazy powerful tbh. like said above, you could probably get to rank 5 without him but you'll be hard pressed to go any further, and the deck is just going to be better if you have him anyways. He wins games on his own.

I think its a legacy thing. Back in big druid's debut It wasn't so heavily taunt focused as to call the deck Taunt druid. As well as the fact that there weren't any significant taunt synergies like Hadronox. But now that there are, people generally call the deck taunt druid as opposed to big. But yes they basically are the same archetype with the same goal of survive and play huge things that your opponent cant deal with.

Sekiro ;)

Change possessed Villager for Mecharoo, it's strictly better.

yeah, not a bug.

It would probably be extremely difficult to balance a neutral deathknight as there would probably be a class or two where there would be some broken combo. That or they would have to make it so underwhelming that it would defeat the purpose of making one and wouldn't feel special.

 This. Its terrible for class identity if they make it any good at all. they almost have to make it bad or so niche that its not in every deck, and if you're making something so niche its basically going to be a class card anyways, like how Hench-Clan Thug is neutral, but nobody but rogue uses it and nobody but rogue will ever use it.

Baleful banker=never fatigue 

 You can do that now with Glinda Crowskin + Baleful Banker.

 True, but with this you always have a 5-5 on the board that can't* be removed. Outside of silence and transform effects. Still terrible, but its something I suppose.

But then they have Mecha'thun in their hand, and still have to play it and kill it off. 

For Wild there's Myra's Unstable Element, Dump your hand, Play Mecha'thun + Counterfeit Coin + Counterfeit Coin into Preparation Assassinate 

RIP plan, Assasinate targets enemy only.

I for one, welcome our new Robot overlords.

But My god, what a card. Insane possibilities with the new rogue legendary. This is frightening, to say the least.

I like Kripp, but Bandit is right for the most part. He really wont create much hype as he's just not really that kind of guy. I don't think Day9 should really be doing it either though, since as many have pointed out, he really doesn't play a ton of HS anymore. There are plenty of other popular HS streamers that they could and should pick from. Savjz? Thjis, Trump, Noxious, hell even toast. I don't even watch/like all those guys but I'd rather see somebody more connected to the meta and game up there giving some analysis on the cards as they're revealed.

Why couldn't it have had Taunt? I know, I know, Mechwarper and all that, but we need a good Mech package to support this.

 My thoughts exactly. If it had taunt it would be a solid constructed card, but without it it's gonna be hard pressed to see play. By maybe you just attach it to a mech with taunt already so it doesn't matter? The play-ability of this card is going to depend a lot on the mechs that come out this expansion I feel.
