No-one talked about nerfing DH again, so here I am. Soul DH is insane right now. Ammount of damage from hero attacks is very high. There are turns, where DH is able to deal 10 to 12 dmg at face. Srsly, what classes can sustain 24 dmg dealt in 2 turns, when DH has a ability to pass through taunts with Kayn Sunfury.
On it's own it isn't that problematic in some matchups, but are 3 cards (actually 5) that cause DH to be a great class against all types of decks.
Twin Slice - 2 mana deal 4 dmg. It has a lot of flexibility and quite good value for it's mana cost.
Soulshard Lapidary - a 5/5/5 that deals 5 dmg. It can easly kill enemies 4 or 5 mana drop.
Blade Dance - When combined with other cards it can remove 3 big minions from the board. As I druid I had a board of 6 that werre at least 8/9 taunts and my enemy already used Kayn Sunfury. Gues what! Blade Dance x2 killed all of them and I got 14 lethal dmg on my face (mana dicsounts from Skull of Gul'dan included).
Isn't a bit too strong? I would like to see some nerfs, especially to Twin Slice. Mb make this card 1 mana +3 attack or 1 mana +2 attack and give second slice, but you can attack minions only this turn? Let me know what you think.
So damage output from DH is crazy. But there still is a problem - healing. Probably the most offensive class in the game can heal very easly with Aldrachi Warblades and Soul Fragment. It makes sense, cause he needs to sustain attacking minions. But do you know what's cool? If you have Aldrachi Warblades you can double you 10-14 dmg if you play Il'gynoth. Was it even tested properly? As I hunter i would lose against DH when I was at 26 hp, but randomly generated Misdirection saved me/
Let's sum it up. We've got crazy dmg, nice board clears, cheap ways to get rid of taunts and healing. Isn't to strong in a single deck? Mb you've got some ideas for DH nerfs, cause they are very needed IMO.

To compensate for the inconsistent Evolve shaman hero card.
ps : EVERY class will have 02 legendaries.

Blizzard is known to mess with RNG in their games, especially with the new algorithm spotted this year created by Activision (and EA too) to force the players into buying things in their games that will be certainly used in the next years.

- Best boards clears, check
- Best healing, check
- Best draw mechanics, check
- Best Dk hero card, check
- Solid Taunts
And he's not going to lose that much with the rotation next month, so what is Blizzard waiting to fix this messed class ? next expansion will just offer him more and certainly better cards to mess with and it will them another 3 months to react and nerf the wrong card, seriously, this is just getting stupid here.
