As for Keeper, they said they want to keep silence away from the game for now. They intentionally nerfed both Owl and Keeper to a point of unplayability, because they wanted to delete good silences from the game. That's also the reason why allmighty Purify doesn't target opponent's minions. Blizzard currently doesn't like silence, that's all.

"Draw 2" is extremely powerful on no matter how sized body. Even 4/5. For such effect to be really balanced the body should be uber small, what would also probably make the card trash. I think there really was no way to balance Lore and keep its flavour - it would always be either op or terrible. Simply badly designed card.

I'm honestly curious as to why Blizzard nerfs cards to the point where they are awful. 

One card I was thinking about specifically was Keeper of the Grove. 

A 2/2 for 4 mana? What were they thinking here? I don't get it. Not only that, but this card is clearly worse than most neutral minions. 

Disciple of C'thun isn't even that great of a card in my opinion, yet it is 1 less mana for only -1 health. And it's a neutral minion. 

Why did they make it an unplayable 2/2 instead of a somewhat playable 2/3?

It just seems like they nerf cards in order to take them out of play completely. 

Same thing with Ancient of Lore when they got rid of its card draw. I mean, 1 card is a HUGE nerf. Couldn't they have just nerfed the stats to 4/5 or 4/4 or something like that? 

Can someone explain what they think Blizzard's thought process here is?

A mechanical version of any card in standard

broken card, even if it wasn't broken the stats would have to be god awful to be not broken. Of course you gave it vanilla stats lol.

I could mention a million broken things you can do with this. How about we start with 2 renos?

I don't know anything about World of Warcraft lore but I have an interesting idea for a new legendary that allows you to break deck making rules.

My thinking is that the card could be a vanilla 3 or 4 drop that has 3/4 or 4/5 stats but its effect is that it allows you to, during the construction of your deck, put more than 2 of a non legendary card OR more than 1 of a legendary card. 

I don't know how balanced this would be but I feel like it would be pretty meta-defining and would help slower decks that are control orientated. 

What do you guys think?

EDIT: The card should have crappy stats, maybe something like a 3 mana 2/2

Aggro players dont have to cry, since their decks are on the upper side of the meta. Reason why control players complain more is simple - there is no working control deck that can consistently have positive winrate with the ammount of mess (yes, im looking at you huntards) on the ladder. While u have aggro shamman, huntards, dragon warrs, tempo mages etc, u dont have any control. Thats it.

Can anyone help me out here? Is flamestrike really that rare? 

Doesn't work for me at all. The AI targets the Northshire every time and nothing else.

Dude. Be angry at Worgen combo, then. Be angry at freeze mage. Yogg can do things, other cards can do things. There are a lot of other cards that consolidate a board turn better than yogg unless in very specific and unlikely situations. Just sit down and think for 5 sec.

I can't believe people are defending a card that you can't play around at all. 

This card really isn't OP considering mindblast
