Hearthpwn

And the fact that when it's resurrected, the hands are resurrected as well. 

These are laughable. None of the nerfs will have any impact (except for DH quest). 2 damage reduction on Astalor, are you kidding me?! :D Furthermore there are many other problematic cards which enable the oppressive and overpowered decks in the meta. Rogue is still fine, Gnoll was not the main problem. Ghosts are still fine - who cares they are not stealthed? Astalor still fine. Shockspitter still fine as even 4 mana is early enough to hit you in the face for a lot of damage.

Overall nothing really changed, there will be zero impact on the meta. 

The buffs are even more laughable - just cards that have no other support whatsoever, therefore still will not be played.
Knowing it took them so much time to come up with nothing - it's pathetic. 

Stop whining. No one from Bli$$ard cares about you. It's all about monetization. If the extra deck slots are paid for, you can get them. If not - forget it.

Unfortunately they don't give a rat's ass about Wild. And even if they did, they are so incompetent and lacking adequate people, that they can't even cope with Standard, yet alone Wild. 

Questionable -> Strange -> Baffling -> Absurd -> Ridiculous -> Bli$$ard. 

Shadowstep has definitely been an insanely overpowered card for a long, long, long, LONG time now, but always dodging any nerfs whatsoever. Pretty much ALL zero cost cards in Hearthstone have proven to be problematic or downright broken, and more often than not have been nerfed at some point.

Yet a 0 cost card that does mana cheat, enables insane combos, cheats powerful battlecry effects, acts as card draw, and as buff/damage enabler somehow has never been touched and is OK according to Bli$$ard. 

Buffoons.

What is battlegrounds? What is heroic tavern brawl?

Huge interest, judging by the myriad of comments here.

Top left wins.

Questing adventurer is OP, also minions with battlecries, which buff other minions. For example Bonemare, Stormwind champion, defender of argus, funglemancer, etc. you get the point.  Powerful batllecries like Alexstraza, Astalor, Denathrius and such. Deathrattles, which generate tokens, i.e Carrion Grub. Also Earth Shock in Shaman. 

In this shitty meta you don't need more than 5 slots as you never have that many viable classes/archetypes. Even the PROS play 4 decks only in - check the World Championship :) 

Judging by these changes, it seems absolutely everyone who remains in Bli$$ard nowadays is completely and utterly incompetent. 

We know they don't test, we know they are totally clueless about their own game, we know they don't listen to their customers and community, but heck, the PRO world championship finished yesterday... 

All the sh*tshow decks from it remain pretty much untouched. DR rogues will not be slowed by these nerfs - these are not.the.problematic.cards. Thief rogue - unchecked. All variations of obscene priests - unchecked. Ping Mage - running rampant. Etc.

In the same time they kill the one single card which is used for at least remotely trying out other types of decks and slower non mana cheat archetypes...

It is really beyond comprehension and common sense at this point.

Agreed, we should give credit where it's due. My point was more towards the decks, as in general I find them too luck/rng-based and in 99% of cases whoever gets the better draw at start and throughout the match, wins, regardless of who is the most skillful player. Of course, throughout the actual play you do have varying degrees of skill on how to most efficiently and effectively make use of what you are dealt with and how to read and interpret the odds/rng, so kudos to the winner indeed. 

This event was complete and utter embarassment for Blizzard and Hearthstone! The same 4 f-ing manacheat decks all over, painfully boring mirror matches decided by a braindead total RNG fiesta, and not a single deck in the whole tournament (yet alone the final four) with the new DK class. Not even the people paid for playing and promoting the game want to use it. Absolute and total disaster on every level! The game has never been in a more atrotious state.
