are you seriously complaining about a card game getting more cards??....and what blizz said about azure drake is true, even aggro decks are running it! and your only defense on azure was miracle rogue being hurt?? and ALL card games use the pack system, its not a new thing. These are good changes
I hear you man. and youre right, in other games those traits make aggro a low win rate play style. Im just addressing the people that act like losing against aggro at anytime should be impossible.
While i agree with alot of peoples gripes about aggro, trust me im not a fan either, as someone who plays many other card games i can tell you that aggro is a very important part of card games. if hearthstone didnt have aggro then everyone would just be focused on high value decks. without aggro only decks that could get the most value out of cards would be viable(i.e Kazakus+brann) because the meta will be slow(can you imagine what else Reno-lock could fit in if it didnt have to tech against aggro?!). And also from a collection standpoint, aggro gives players a chance to be competitive without having access to tons of legendary and epic cards.
People will always say this game is all about RNG( not realizing that ALL card games involve RNG), yet we see the same players toping in these tournements every year...seems that skill is quite consistent
you made some really good points @Komorebi3. its like people forget all the chanting they did before about " OMG blizz buff pirates!" or "wheres the good pirates blizz?!" i remember this site was full of those types of posts. And if pirates werent strong rn people would say Blizz didnt do anything.
I agree with them changing arena to standard. Arena as it is now is even more stale than constructed, because while you have access to more cards, the card pool is so diluted that ALL decks no matter what hero you draft have the exact same strategy: big bodies on curve, control board...thats it. synergies and card combos are almost non existent. whether youre a priest or a rogue your "dream cards" are always Chillwind Yeti into Pit Fighter into Boulderfist Ogre so on and so on.
i have been hearing people say that Blizz is now doing an expansion-adventure-expansion schedule every year now instead of expansion-adventure-expansion-adventure-etc like they have been doing? can someone confirm? at work no time to research lol
while i dont agree with Tyrande being attached to 40 packs, i do understand that outside of directly selling tyrande its very difficult to align terms when it comes to the internet sharing between the U.S and certain parts of Asia. this isnt the first time they have done something like this... sucks

The 3 expansion rotation makes the standard card pool alot stronger than i thought it would be

does it really take 40 minutes to say " these nerfs hurt aggro, aggro will still be played, maybe people will try these decks maybe?"

I think Fibonacci will be hurt the most when Justicar Trueheart leaves standard
