The problem with this shaman Dungeoneer is that it costs 3

If you play shaman you know the 3 mana slot is already VERY crowded and now there's another card you have to fit

It will probably see play because shaman has no other option but the fact you will have to cut other good 3 drop for this will make it way less powerful than people think

No surprise, midrange board decks are my favorite decks to play exactly because they don't feel polarizing.

You always feel like you have a chance, with it or against it. 

Ultra aggro and heavy control makes me not want to play the game, polarizing cards like the 1 mana 3 dmg buff from pally and hysteria are disgusting

This round of buffs show how blizzard is clueless about their own game

Shaman is suffering from lack of card draws and lack of win conditions and they buff the stats of 2 random midrange minions( one that will never see play and the other who is bound to a tribe that lacks support) and a healing spell which is definetly not what is holding shaman from viable.

Why would I want to sustain if there's no win condition coming my way? Ok Lilipad is broken in a vacuum now, but still , you can't close a game on the back of a 5/6 card. Shaman is still unplayable like it was for the last months.

Another Flow Turn 1

Another Hand of Adal Turn 2

Another Hysteria turn 3

This meta is predictable and unbearable

I told people in this forum that nerfing Deck of Lunacy would not be close to enough to shut down this deck

But as usual, the mage mains tried hard to defend their broken toy

Flow and Spring Water need Warsong Treatment. And then, priest need the warsong treatment.

What are you talking about?

Control Priest is borderline broken right now.

I rather face any aggro 30 times in a row than any hero power pass deck like control priest

If you Play Priest, Warlock or Mage, you are braindead. 

There's no excuses. Jusy embrace it.

I really don`t understand

I lost countless games where deck of lunacy was played turn 4 or 5

If their goal was to make a super RNG deck like Lunacy not Top Tier, this change will not do the trick, calling it now...

It's another deck that forces you into non-interactive-damage-from-hand-face-rush-burst-dmg OR you are busted

It will replace deck of lunacy after nerfs. You either are playing a deck capable of killing him at turn 6 or you instalose to ONE card

The main problem with the very quick combo decks and explosive "control" decks is that decks with mid-range and tempo game plans can't exist. You either play defensively and go off on turn 5-7, or you kill your opponent on turn 4-7 despite counterplay.

I was hoping after the nerfs Mages would cease to exist but NOPE like I said if Deck of Lunacy cost 6 mana the deck would still be viable due to Refreshing Spring Water and Incanter's Flow. And to add more salt to the wound and just as I feared people are starting to catch on and pick up Control Warlock due to the Pen Flinger nerf and now it is nigh unstoppable. Aggro decks lost alot of burst damage so Warlocks are able to comfortably stay healthy throughout the entire match all the while infinitely spawning 6/6's, and due to Tickatus you auto win vs control and combo. The deck effectively beats almost an entire archetype trifecta. Aggro? loads of healing and AoE for pretty much any board situation (May I remind you of Hysteria and Cascading Diaster, the most broken removal in the game) Control? Tickatus. Combo? Tickatus. Midrange? Only Clown Druid can beat it comfortably. I would wager this is the best Control has ever gotten and the most broken it will ever be.

144p muted running in the background is the best way to watch hs.

100% worst meta in 2 years. Least variety and most highroll/unfun decks.

Would probably be nice if things like Refreshing Spring Water weren't a literal pot of greed in spell mage

lmao, no it's not? It doesnt take a genius to see that this meta is indeed very toxic and that certain classes are tier S while most others are barely viable to complete shite. There doesnt need to be any more time.

This meta is literally unplayable until mage nerf.

Palaidin is not big problem IMO, but mage is so cancerous atm. 

How bad is this meta exactly? Ive seen a lot of people say it's one of the worst ever. I mean, look at the stats. Mage, Paladin and Warlock pretty much crush every other class. Lunacy, tickatus and secret pally manage to keep just about every other class out of the meta. If you're not being rng'd by mage with crazy spells then your deck is being burned away with Tickatus or out skilled by paladin secrets. Imo, this is def one of the worst.

Quote from MaximusDM2264 >>

These 2 classes represent more than 60% of the diamond ladder right now , meanwhile classes like warrior , priest, shaman, hunter are struggling to have 2% playrate. 

Congratulations devs, you broke the game again. First few days of the expansion and the game feels completely unplayable if you are not one of these guys that find "fun" spamming RNG mage to climb easily on the back of a broken deck.

 This.  And also Tickatus is just ruining any chance of competitive deck building. 

You want to have a fun diverse meta.  Not a meta where 3 decks are OP and no counters.
