Like the idea for sure. I'd say it gains even more ground if the following expansions dont support a spell shaman archtype which I hope/assume was the initial intention of vashj prime.
The altrius is a bit too strong at baseline, but I see what you're going for since it can technically hit 8 targets with a full enemy board.
I got a solid chuckle overall though because you're pretty within the scope of possibility for the early OP effects in the age of guaranteed brawl wins with 5 mana sylvanas 😂
The last leg always feels like the hardest part. It's like you just want it to be over already and somehow also get qued against top tier net deckers lol
Well, the short answer is yes, legend has become easier to achieve.
However, this is greatly exaggerated. Essentially what has happened is that a lot of the people who were rank 5 regulars in the old system have managed to get to legend. This is because the grind has become much less. Essentially, all of the people who are 'good enough' to hit legend are now able to. In the past, the consensus was if you could hit rank 5 every season with ease, if you grinded enough you would make it to legend. Most people just weren't willing to make that grind.
However, now many less games are required. The star bonus quickly accelerates you to Diamond (Typically 10 or 5), and you only have to have to be 15 games positive from D5, as opposed to the 25 from rank 5.
Essentially, it takes less games to hit D5 then it did to hit rank 5, and it takes less games to hit legend from D5 than it did from rank 5. As such, legend is unmistakably easier to achieve.
HOWEVER: I see lots of players saying 'everyone can hit legend now, its so easy, hurr hurr.' These people are simply incorrect. Bad players are still 'skill capped' at whatever level of play they are. The reason people get stuck in gold, platinum, or diamond is because they aren't skilled enough to climb further. These players will not climb and will not hit legend until they improve.
The difference is that the good players are no longer 'grind capped' (I just made that term up) by the sheer number of games it used to take to hit legend. For 'legend worthy' players who have a positive winrate against other players from D5 to legend, legend is now much easier to achieve. For bad players, it is still impossible.
This is in absolutely no way a bad thing. The game has become less grindy, and everyone should be happy about this.
This thread is no longer about the quality of the patch, and is more about how the mods and admins choose to run the website, so don't be angry when it gets locked again
Waiting on the AoO shaman package to get better throughout the year.. REALLY hoping Lady Vashj will improve more than anything. Shes already wild viable, so standard just needs that extra bump.
It's a dangling carrot to sate growing appetites between expansions. They can get 1.5-2months max of new expac fun before it grows rapidly stale and people start complaining/stop playing.

This entire post is troll flaming. The issue isnt blizzard it's your expectations and lack of willingness to do your prior research.

Theres been several druid king dickswings since jade..
Star aligner druid was insane.. the 2000+ armor deck is still played in wild.. spell druid is at least t2 if not t1 depending on the day.
Also, ultimate infestation caused community wide PTSD so theres probably definitely gonna have to be some downtime for recovery from that 😅
