Remember that we're only a few days away from a lot of cards getting buffed. Unless you have something really specific in mind I'd hold off for now on crafting. For all we know Pocket Galaxy or one of the other buffed cards might become really strong in the meta. 

Dr. Boom not even being tweaked at all in these changes? Something like making Delivery Drone add a random mech instead of discovering tons of Omega Devastators would have been something. This is so inconsistent and weakens other underpowered Rogue archetypes like Academic Espionage Rogue which was already in the gutter.  Have no problem with the Miscreant and Raiding Party nerfs. 

I'm sure there were better candidates for nerfs other than Prep but whatever. 

Kolento. 

Bad player. 

These are the nerfs that I think would make the game healthier and allow a lot more creative deck building. Open to suggestions of where I might have got it wrong though. 

Barnes = Cost nerfed to 6 Mana with stat bump to 4/5

Dr Boom Mad Genius = Delivery Drone changed from Discover a Mech to Add a Random Mech To Your Hand 

Brawl = Cost nerfed to 6 Mana

Raiding Party = Cost nerfed to 4 Mana

Edwin = Combo nerfed to Gain +2 +1

Waggle Pick = Stats change to 3 Attack / 3 Durability

Omega Devastator = Cost nerfed to 6 Mana 

EVIL Miscreant = Cost nerfed to 4 Mana

Mountain Giant = Cost nerfed to 13 Mana

Sea Giant = Cost nerfed to 11 Mana

Elysianna = Cost nerfed to 10 Mana with stat bump to 9/9 

Darkest Hour = Cost nerfed 8 Mana

Magic Carpet = Stats nerfed to 1/5

Leeroy Jenkins = Cost Nerfed to 7 Mana

Problem is if Blizz went on a comprehensive nerf to problem cards they would be refunding a LOT of dust and that's something they really, really don't want to do. 

I'm not a fan of Token Druid but I don't think the deck is the problem in this instance.

Well shit, flash news I guess. 

I literally just pulled Oblivitron and Archmage Vargoth in 3 different packs. I might make myself a nice little Mech-Hunter now :)

is going to be very lucky if you can find a combination of 2 very specific cards (one of which you can only put once in the deck) by turn 5

Last but not least, the whole combo is easily prevented by you opponent having even a single taunt.

Dr. Boom hero power should be nerfed.

5 armor and a random mech.

Stockholm syndrome

I was just playing a control warrior vs. control warrior matchup.  He was on his 7th turn of fatigue and I was still drawing cards.  I was going to win in a few more turns due to fatigue when the timer hit and called the game a draw.  It was sad to lose a game I was eventually going to win, but that's not the point.

This will probably happen in big time tournaments.  Some game is going to be decided due to some rather unnecessary turn clock.  And even if not unnecessary, by far to early.  I was still drawing cards for hell's sake.  And no, I wasn't going unlimited.  I had 2 uses of the archivist and had taken 3 turns of fatigue damage early in the match.  Neither of us had any more cards coming.

So, I petition Blizz to give us another 10 turns at a minimum to avoid the embarrassment of games being decided for no good reason in the tournaments.  

 

 You must have missed the memo where Blizzard only cares about aggro players and doesn't care about any match ups that last past the 7 turn mark

I'm doing very well with espionage rogue. The huge boost to it's early game let's me deal with all but the perfect aggro mulligan, and espionage let's me out value any other control deck. 

 Would you mind posting a list? 

Sorry it's a bit late.
