You can always play molten giant earlier....like you know not for free. At 10 health like always, a 5 mana 8/8 giant. Oh wait can't do the 2 molten giant for 0 mana+Defender of Argus combo putting 37 stats with 32 of them having taunt for 4 mana total? Then having 6 mana for something else? Too bad.
Handlock still has mountain giants which take a major leap in power (already top tier in Handlock) due to the BGH nerf.
Yeeeah... no.
See, a vanilla 5 mana 8/8 would have to fight for its place in anything as is (look at the stats a 6 drop is meant to produce (Cairne, Highmane) or the utility a 5 drop is meant to produce (Loatheb, Harrison))... but this isn't vanilla... you can't cast it on 5 (or you've lost anyway) and can't cast it and a removal on 10 in the control matchup. Being within a spell and a half of death of cast a 5 cost 8/8 is simply untenable .
Good nerf. Glad I won't being seeing this fuckface anymore.
You do realise that if you don't see him anymore then that is the very definition of a poorly executed power level rebalance, right?
So, yeah, not saying you're wrong that we wont see him (I don't think Blizzard can rebalance for shit), but that you make not a lick of sense when you say that is good.
