Oh boy, Blizz hit right on the money with these nerfs, love them all. Renew for 2 kills Wandmaker in Priest (good riddance), and Apo nerf kills Samuro combo (also GOOD RIDDANCE). Getting 4-5 Renews every game and healing to full while cleaning a board was NOT fine by any measure.
Gibberling was pure degeneracy just waiting to break the game, dont see how they could have changed it w/o killing it, but token druid will still be great vs aggro so its fine.

another fkn idiotic match that i have to tell you about:
i played my ctrl warrior again vs a shaman. he was down to 1 card in his hand, 0 minions on board and i was at 15hp.
Last card was of course instructor fireheart. and he gets all the 1 mana 3 dmg stuff lilke lightning bolt and some rockbiter weapon, getting me killed.
srsly what is this game ?! this is a pure fvcking joke

Quote from 0SootSamus >>Dumpster legend means nothing. people play experimental trash decks. Easy to win.
People say this all the time, but it’s hardly ever the case.
Everyone tryhards at the moment. There is no way an experimental trash deck will do anything in the current card pool.
Dumpster Legend for me was Paladin, Mage siesta for over 30 games when I last tried it.

The OP hadn’t said anything to indicate his post was in bad faith so I’m not sure why his post count is being judged?
There are millions of players who have played since beta and haven’t posted on this forum.

Quote from TwistedCardmaster >>You are entitled to your own opinion, but I think that majority of players wouldn't agree with you. Priest's and Warrior's strategy is to sit down, remove every threat and heal / armor up until fatigue, while Warlock at least has some pro-active win conditions (Jaraxxus, Tickatus, Envoy) and (unlike Priest with tons of random generation) he has to manage his resources to survive. I'm not saying he's harder to play or anything, but I'm sure that he's more interesting for most people.
Anytime anyone says "most people," they are talking about "me, myself, and I." Because you honestly have no idea what most people think unless you have commissioned a survey of thousands of Hearthstone players.

Quote from TallStranger >>Quote from TallStranger >>And hey, if a YouTuber says it, it must be true!
Your passive aggressiveness is amusing, considering how embarrassing your mistake is.
It's not said by the YouTuber, it's in Blizzard's own patent. The YouTuber just covered it.
You know, in my past comment, I said this "The community is the actual problem of this game", and you did nothing but further proving that what I said was true.
I also said this "Please put a little effort to read just a little bit more". When I say it, I do not only mean about reading, but also researching.
The nonsense about the patent has been exposed numerous times by people who are actually capable of coherent thought. See for example, Shadowrisen's pretty authoritative dismantling of that video here: https://www.hearthpwn.com/forums/hearthstone-general/general-discussion/246232-an-interesting-video?comment=4
But by all means, continue to think that Blizzard is stacking the deck against you. It's easier than trying to actually improve your game.
It's a terrible "debunk". Half of it is just filled with Ad Hominems about the YouTuber. I'm surprised if the mods haven't given the person some kind of warning.
As for the points, they're weak. Heck, even the person said this "This is old news, and has been ACKNOWLEDGED for years" when responding to Blizzard matching new players with experienced paid players so that new players buy packs, which did not look good for the rest of the response at all.
The YouTuber never said that it's 100% confirmed. He only showed proof that such thing is more than just a myth. Obviously, there's no way to 100% confirm it, but logically, Blizzard will implement the patent that they paid for. Also, it's only 3 years old. Patents usually last for 15 years at least.

Mage will more than likely be the reason I end up taking a break from standard for awhile. The RSW “nerf” was laughable at best. All you can do is sit back & watch as they draw their entire deck by turn 8 or 9, then emote as they mindlessly throw everything at face. The deck is essentially “how many masks of cthuns can you discover.” The deck could more than likely be piloted by a garage door opener. There‘s a reason why it’s the most played deck across all ranks right now. And that is because you can alt/tab in between turns & still win the majority of your games. I miss the days when there were actual decisions to be made with most decks.
*Draw* *Draw* *Draw* *Mask of Cthun* *Fireball* *Fireball*.....”Well Played” “My magic will tear you apart.”

$50 for 10 packs...Jesus. Gold cards or not, that’s a yikes from me.

Wouldn’t be a Shadowrisen post without mentioning Tickatus in some way. For all the complaining you do about the topic, you sure seem to like bringing it up quite a bit.

Sounds like you can solve your own problem by simply not coming to the SALT thread. You’re literally complaining about the entire point of the thread. If you don’t like reading it, then you can choose not to. If you’re just looking to start random arguments, then I would recommend you visit the official hearthstone subreddit, since that accounts for about 90% of the content there.

Aren't combo decks supposed to beat Control anyway? A combo deck having a good win rate against warlock isn't at all surprising.

The thing is, this is exactly what Blizzard wants. Contrary to what a lot of people on this board think, this game does not revolve around what players in top 200 legend are doing. The game has over 20 million active players monthly. Many of which, play this game very casually. They aren’t playing hours on end, & aiming for a top 16 finish each month. They play this game on their lunch breaks, or on the toilet, & need decks like face hunter, that they can do well with, without much thought involved. There have to be decks like this available in the game at all times. That’s what keeps players coming back & ultimately spending money on the game. It is a business after all.

As I stated in my first post, I don’t think anything really needs changing at the moment. This is just a small tweak that I agree could be considered at some point. The fireball comparison is laughable, but there’s no need to get into that. I personally don’t have an issue with hunters on ladder, since my control warrior largely farms them. They’re also beating up on all the warlocks, which is a good thing. So trust me, I’ll be fine with or without the change.

Good lord, this thread has been a roller coaster ride. After reading the initial post, seeing the inevitable downward spiral, & eventually, the full & total collapse of anything resembling an actual discussion...I can’t help but laugh at the irony of it all.
This thread is the HS community in microcosm. A sublime tragedy.

Damn, why didn’t I think of any of these things before?! *smacks forehead*
Thanks to your amazing advice, I now have no unfavorable matchups!

Making it a 0/1 would change absolutely nothing. A pen flinger is almost never played if it can't be bounced anyways, so that's essentially a non issue. The only way to nerf the card is to make it only deal damage to minions, which would also potentially kill the card, but so be it. No deck should be centered around a 1-drop. I truly believe this is the change we'll see later this month.
Another year of watching the rope burn while your opponent ignores your board & bounces pen flingers definitely does not sound like fun to me.
