"unchecked" they literally nerfed half the demon hunter set, this is the first time they nerf so many cards from one specific class in a short amount of time. 

Jesus christ will they ever stop nerfing DH? I just came back after a 30 days break thinking this would be a good time to finally try out the new class, turns out they are not done nerfing the shit out of Illidan until he gets 30% overall winrate and 0 playable deck in Wild. 

How about you give DH a balanced 2 mana hero power instead of nerfing every single good card they have to compensate for the better hero power? This is giving me old warlock vibes, but worse. At least warlock used to straight up get shit cards, not super enjoyable cards nerfed to oblivion. 

Looks like it was all planned from the beginning to make people buy more packs. It was painfully obvious that they made it too strong at release, but it is now painfully obvious that they are trying to kill the class until the next cycle of OP cards, because it's so much more fun to lose to mages.

Nerfing warglaives is a ***ing joke, at release we had countless 5 mana cards to play with, so much that warglaives was even considered a weak card. Now illidan has to play neutral cards to fill his curve with decent 5 drops LOL.

So actual statistics show DH being fine in tier 2 or 3, but you know better than statistics because you lost against DH?

Okay dude. Of all the things that need a nerf in Wild DH is the last one on the list.

Also it's a card game so yeah dude RNG got you to legend that's not a surprise and that was a thing before DH. 

There will never be any creativity anymore but this has nothing to do with the rotation. 

Creativity was gone when Blizzard decided to hand it over to streamers to play the expansions a few days before everyone else.

By the time the expansion actually launches, everything is already on YouTube, everyone knows what are the bad cards and the good decks, theorycrafting has already shifted to refining.

Really?

I have seen one DH play that card against me and it didn't go well (triggered once, wrong target). I don't even know how you win with that deck. Once the Wrathscale is gone the deck does nothing. 

It's like the worst DH archetype right now. Face and midrange DH decks are more impactful imo. I'm climbing the ladder with the midrange one. 

Really they ruined the "demon" search now ffs? 

They already ruined the "dragon" search with all the cards from descent of dragons..

This is so stupid I don't know what they were thinking. There is a clickable menu for classes and sets. Why would anyone need to use the search bar for a certain class or a certain set?

I hope they fix this cause it's already painful enough to make decks and search cards on mobile.

Nether Portal

Give taunt or lifesteal to the imps.

Yes, I've used the hypogryph in different decks that have hand buffs and I've been pleasantly surprised, it's a very good card.

War bear is kinda slow for hunter but might be worth playing in a Leoroxx deck 

In Wild, meta decks are secret mage and quest mage, from rank 20 all the way down to legend 1. You will encounter so many mages that any other decks feels refreshing and off meta

In standard I'm not sure I haven't played much. Things are about to change anyway with the new expansion. 

Care to explain why it's the most cancerous deck in history ? 

I still have bad memories of pre nerf starving buzzard beast hunter, and pref nerf undertaker face hunter.

Pirate warrior with pre nerf patches. 

Aggro druid with pre nerf force of nature, that 14 health threshold that you had to maintain at any cost while clearing the board every single turn. 

And more recently secret mage in Wild is giving ME cancer. You just lose if you're not playing a t1 deck with an insane opener. There's just too much consistency, synergy and mana cheating in that deck for my taste. And the anti secret tech that is just so slow and barely improves your chances while ruining your deck against other classes. 

And these are just the aggro decks. I won't go over cancerous combo decks but I could.

Nowadays Hearthstone has a little more tools to deal with the insane aggro openers.

Priest and Warrior with their efficient, low cost board clears and numerous healing cards will destroy this token DH deck.

Token decks can be very powerful but also very polarized and susceptible to counter decks/cards in my opinion.

In fact I think aggro DH with all the token synergy replaced with weapons and hero attack buffs and cheaper cards will be much harder to deal with. Wrathscale Naga is very clunky sometimes and without this card the decks barely does anything. And feast of souls while potentially game breaking I'm sure you found out is hard to include in a deck and can be sitting in your hand for a long time (I see there is only one in the deck you linked, doesn't surprise me) aggro DH needs cheap, direct damage, and cheap, direct card draw, not combos. And he has a ton of that. Cycling through your entire deck with Altruis will be crazier than turn 8 Wrathscale and Knife juggler shenaningans I think. 

At first when I read "2 turns" I thought she would be OP but then I saw her being played and the 2 turns include the turn you play her. It's still better than freeze but not that much. Control decks will probably play actual removal over his temporary dormant effect, but she'll be played in a lot of tempo decks for sure.

And a nice tech against deathrattle decks I guess. Maybe control decks play Maiev after all. 

Nice target for Dire Frenzy or Scavenger's Ingenuity.

Board clear for hunter.

5 star card. 

I can't stop thinking about War Golem when I see this card. I know, it's neutral, and it's one of the worst cards in the game since forever. But Hearthstone sure has evolved a lot.

A card like this would be outrageously broken in the early days of hearthstone, but today is probably just a fine card with bad RNG

The spell damage applies to the hero, but does it apply to the spells cast by the card? I'm not sure about this.

Imagine having spell damage on board and playing Yogg. Yogg won't have increased damage on spells right? 

I can see this being used in some sort of rez priest or deathrattle synergy whatever class, where you constantly get back al'ar and the ashes and the multiple al'ar eventually get too sticky and impossible to deal with.. I guess
