I'm missing only 2 Imprisoned Antaem (dusted all after nerf), but I didn't get any not in the rewards, nor in the packs. I mean, I thought it was normal during the nerf period was still on to not exploit the system, but after?

I agree with Zeddy on every point. Enough of this non sense Blizzard, act and act fast.
I may not be an HS world champion but i'm top 5000 legend and I have ~66% win rate vs every other class. Wonder why DH is the only negative one... Mmm

The way I would nerf it is "Battlecry: at the end of the turn, set an hero's life to 15".
Defensively doesn't change almost anything (unless you had additional healings that would put you above 15) and offensively changes a lot, because if opponents has a 15 atk board you are not dead anymore. It would just be a tool to bring you down from 30 to 15.
But honestly, I think they will just HoFed her

At this point I'm convinced that this forum is full of DH fan boys that for the first time climbed to ranks that before couldn't even dream of and now don't want to see their beautiful class brought to a fair level.

How is it better than Baku hero powers? Rogue has a 2/2 weapon. Druid gain 2armor and 2 atk. Mage is kind of the same but they don't take face damage. Hunter deals 3 to face. The game is always be balanced around 2 mana HP. What if one day inspire becomes a thing again?
DH always use it's mana at its fullest thanks to it. And that's an unfair advantage. That combined to the ridiculously op cards they got.

I already express my opinion about DH in many threads. I came to the conclusion that until further nerfs I'm gonna do my quests in brawl mode, then log out and experiment Legends of Runeterra

Ok, wow, I'm glad the discussion is engaging so many people.
A few more things i'd like to point:
1) Sorry, i didn't mean that the nerfs didn't accomplish anything. The first ones yes, they were on the dot (maybe still too light the one to Skull of Gul'dan). The second round? Not so much. Altruis costing 1 mana more is still ridicolously good, Glaivebound Adept I insist not counting it as a nerf, Battlefiend starting at 1 atk, yes, it helps, but honestly, it was insane from the start: 1 mana 2/2 with no downside but actually a huge snowballing upside? WTF? Who came up with that? And who said 'Yeah, seems legit, let's do it' ? Still the best 1 drop in the game.
2) I honestly don't understand all this hate vs Rogue, to the point that seems that this class is the real problem for many of you. I played a lot both AS and VS Rogue. Yes, it's very strong. But somehow fair. I may win or lose, but I don't recall a game where I felt that the class was unfair and overtuned. It let's you play, has counters. Has highrolls, but even a Galakrond into Kronx for 0 mana comes only at turn 7 and onwards. And almost certainly by turn 7 you are not at 5 hp, making suboptimal plays to not die next turn when you face rogue.
3) I'm genuinely shocked learning that many of you think DH is fine. I'd appreciate if those who defend it (and play it) would say it. Just a quick recap on the most broken cards:
- Priestess of Fury :
a better Ragnaros: runnable in 2x, playable as early as turn 5, that can attack, that split the damage with face and board (no risk of 6 damage on a Silver Hand Recruit). Ragnaros: a legendary that was Hall of Famed because it felt too much like the go-to for the 8 mana spot for too many classes.
- Twin Slice: I swear, i would be fine with Glaivebound Adept if it wasn't for this card. Most of the time it would be just like a Fire Elemental that deals one more damage but has 1 less health... and maybe to trigger its effect my opponent even had to atk face into one of my taunts. But of course this card has plenty other chances to shine: it's a key card for a great Altruis turn. That's where it shines the most. Worst case scenario? 0 mana deal 2 damage. Wow.
-Metamorphosis : you lost the board and are now in topdeck mode? Here is the solution to all your problems: a Pyroblast splitted in 2 turns for a total cost of 7 mana, TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID (if someone says Grizzled Wizard please, let me first see you playing it, then we'll talk). Chances are that you won't need the second use. In fact, even if you didn't lethal after the first one, it will be your opponent to concede after he won't draw the the heal he was hoping for. So much energy saved!
- Warglaives of Azzinoth :let's just compare it to Doomhammer. Or a more recent one, Sul'thraze. Seriously, do I need to add anything?
- Skull of Gul'dan: there is no need to explain.
- Altruis the Outcast: same as above
4) The 'it's cheap' argument is bullshit. Whether you are new or a returning player, you get a free deck, including one with so many great neutral legendaries like Highlander mage. So is the argument 'It's new, people are experimenting the new class'. BULLSHIT. People play it because it's OP, games are short and has a crazy high winrate. I don't know how many people usually reach legend each month, but in my friend list I saw up to legend 52k (EU). I think it says all,
5) Here is a link to a replay of mine vs DH. It's only 7 turns long. https://hsreplay.net/replay/Cq5JEARHJh8pdvwbuv2cmM
Please, please enlighten me on how to get better at the game. Show me the billions of other possible plays I could and should have done instead. Most of all, keep telling me that the class doesn't need further adjustments and it's fine as it is.
(I'M NOT saying I'm the best player and i have no space to improve. NO. I'm saying that most of the time there isn't much you can do).
That's it, i'm really done explaining my point of view.

Sigh, do you guys even read -.-'' ?
Yes, I ALSO played Rogue this season (Highlander Rogue, not full Galakrond, which seems to be the most popular). 20-23 vs DH,32% of my encounters.
Before that I did the climb D5 - Legend with Highlander Priest. (22-23 vs DH, 34% of my encounters).
I'm currently using Kibler's Quest Warrior (13-15 vs DH, 39% of my encounters ).
Quite different playstyles.
So, the point you guys are missing (big time) IS NOT "buhu, Rogue is unfavored vs DH", but IS ACTUALLY "buhu, DH is still not balanced at all after 2 rounds of nerfs, the second of which was basically a joke and actually made the class stronger thanks to the nerf to sac pac. It's making the game experience toxic and I don't like it at all".
I genuinely don't think I can explain it in a clearer way.

My hope is that they will stop with the DH aggro tools and will actually focus on the control / big demons part of the class, which has some great cards and it's a shame they are shadowed.

Ok, between your LMAOs and LOLs, added to the absolute zero of the contribute of your answers, I guess you are still pretty young.
If not anagraphically, mentally. Bye mate :)

Uhm, I hate to tell you this, but Highlander Rogue and Galakrond Warrior are two differents deck mate.
I don't doubt you are doing fine with Warlock with all the healings and removals the deck has. But my point is that Sac is not a viable option with Zephrys anymore, and that is a huge deal, specially in a class that has zero healing tools (except the armor of Galakrond and Kronx)

You are welcome, you can print and frame this thread in case your future sodium level should get dangerously low again.
I'll be happy knowing that at least someone (which happens to be me) has given a meaningful contribute.

I did play Rogue quite a lot (78-57 at legend) . Highlander tho, no full galakrond. But I stopped because DH felt unbeatable with it, with no health gain (or very little) and no taunts. But yes, it's definitely the most fun class.

After 60 games with it I can safely say that Quest Warrior is everything but a meme deck (Kibler made it all golden because 'This deck deserves it').
So the deck I'm using is not the problem. And if by top tier you mean DH, yeah, no thanks.
Is it so hard to admit that their brand new class is not fine as it is and make more adjustments? I'm adapting, trying tech cards vs DH and everything. But it's evident that the class is wrong. And the whole game health is at risk because of that.

Yep, another rant vs Demon Hunter. A class that is making me loosing interest in this game because of how stupidly broken is.
What pisses me the most is that the nerfs accomplished absolutely nothing. Infact, they made the class stronger. I was Legend 2125 in EU this month using Higlander rogue, and vs them I was 19-10. Insane right? After 'nerfs' 20-23. And i didn't change a single card in my list. The difference? Since the nerf of Sacrificial Pact Zephris doesn't offer it anymore (and we all know how crucial was that 5hp extra), but also since SP is now a joke of card, the DH lists started to including again Priestess of Fury (a straight up better Ragnaros the Firelord, runnable 2x and that can be played as early as turn 5... I dare you to say it's not better than Ragnaros).
Then Glaivebound Adept, I already wrote somewhere else why I don't even count it as a nerf but I'm gonna repeat my self: ATK reduction doesnt change a shit. Doesn't make it' easier to trade with minions (shockingly 7health minions at turn 4/5 are not so common) and it's not like 7atk was too much to leave it on the field but 6 it's fine: you have to kill it. Make it 6 mana, lower it's health, deal only to minions, deal only 3, but not f**king atk reduction Blizzard. F**K YOU, whoever came up with this 'nerf'.
Altruis the Outcast, pretty much same as above, but at least the extra mana change something in terms of power level since it can now cost a wopping 1 mana after Skull of Gul'dan and can't be played for free. But it's still an obscene card.
But now they said they don't have any plans to do others nerfs in the near future, meaning they believe somehow that the class it's fine as it is. Breaking news Blizzard: IT'S F**KING NOT!
And it's not like i'm an exclusive Rogue player that feels frustrad that it's class can't beat DH. I climbed from diamond 5 to legend with Higlander Priest and my score was 20-21 (before the very first nerfs). I'm now using a slightly different version of Kibler's quest warrior and I'm 9-12 (weird, cause he crushes them and sucks vs rogue, I almost even DH but I crush rogue).
And with any of these 3 classes DH represent between 32 and 36% of my encounters. I hate it, most of all because I think that the others 9 classes are somehow balanced and every game vs anything but DH feels fun and interesting. Gosh, even resurrect priest as shitty as it is feels more fun. So, as the title says: WHY BLIZZARD CAN'T JUST ADMIT THEY SCREWED UP (and change something, for real this time) ?
