Hearthpwn

It has agility it's a hunter weapon. That's why I rolled need.

(Meanwhile, hunters can't even use maces)

I'd prefer prep to be 1 mana cost, reduce spell cost by 4.

Always sad to see a classic card die.

Other nerfs are fine though.

I agree with the OP, it takes the magic away a bit.

 I wish I'd just said this in the original post! It's gotten way too convoluted

Speaking of free legendaries. Do you guys know whether we will get a free class legendary along with some free packs on the 09.04? I can't find any information about it.

 Not this time I'm afraid, Vargoth was our free legendary

So this is my take on it, cutting down on the bombs a bit in that there's no eleks or seaforiums. It's more of a mech control deck with bombs as a win condition. 

I guess it's viability will depend on how slow warrior can afford to go with less armour gain!

A mixed bag then it'd seem! Some people getting pretty emotional on either side of the discussion...

To clear it up - I wasn't implying this is ruining my enjoyment of the set, just kind of tainting what I'd call the peak of excitement during a Hearthstone rotation. I'll still enjoy the game after that, but honestly the first 24 hours of any expansion (especially a new year) are the most fun I have playing the game. 

If Blizzard prefer us to consume Hearthstone content by watching Twitch instead of playing then I can work towards that, it sounds much cheaper. 

Bomb warrior and thief rogue! 

So hear me out...

Giving a select few streamers early access to the latest expansion is leaving a bit of a bitter taste in my mouth. I feel like they're taking that initial experimentation we all get on release day (finding out cards we hyped are actually trash and vice versa) and giving it to a select few.

I understand this won't be the new meta entirely, but it's on the path towards it - It's the pros and the streamers that tend to build the foundations of the decks we'll all be using in a month or so. 

I know I don't have to watch it, and I can't say it's not enjoyable seeing the new cards in play, it just feels like the hearthstone community is being deprived of that day 1 unpredictably and experimentation.

Could be just me though!

Is it just me that doesn't like this? Basically starts forming a meta before anyone has had a chance to play with the cards... 

Isn't it better that we all get the cards at the same time for that fleeting day or 2 of experimenting, rather than everyone just copying the most successful deck from the stream?

Could be a good shout! Reason I've gone for totem instead is because it's a better target for Mukmorpher, I'm sure lots will change with play-testing though it's far from refined
