Stretching the content to the max. They release it around May 15th-20th, people are happy for 2 weeks. People bitch again - oh look we are nerfing some cards, mostly base set and moving them to hall of fame. People are happy again for 2 weeks. People bitch again - oh look announcement of announcement for next expansion - people are happy again.
Predictable.

I don't think Bloodbloom is that big of a deal, but Barnes should be nerfed. 6 mana barnes would be acceptable, still playable but not too oppressing.

20 for 20 packs and a hero skin is a great deal! I think the emotes were expected to be only "Hello" anyway and they actually fit the character so I don't understand the hate...if you don't like it or you are too broke to pay 20 bucks for a game you obviously care enough to participate in a forum about, just shut up and don't be salty.

The nerfs seem quite fair. In my opinion Mana Wyrm will still see play but it won't be that snowball-y at the beggining of the game, which is good, the Aviana-Kun combo has been going on for ages so I like the nerf, it feels like for the first time Blizzard nerfed the problematic card and not a new good (but not the problem) card and Giggling Inventor...well, the nerf was kinda needed! 7 mana is too much for the stats for sure and now we have no (neutral) protection from aggro decks but I can understand the argument that it would make even decks even better if the cost was changed to 6 so I guess making it unplayable was the only way. All in all I like the fact that only 3 cards were changed and the nerfs seem fair. For the ones complaining about druids... learn to play and use tech cards in your favor, spreading plague can be played around or destroyed with Mossy Horror (or many class spells) and Malfurion is far less oppressive than Gul' Dan and Jaina so stop whinning!

UI should have been nerfed 2 expansions ago so we shouldn't expect it to be nerfed now, it's too late! :p Spreading plague is ok in my opinion, the cost is fair, you can play around it and you also have counterplays like Mossy Horror and many spells in most classes. The DK is also fine, Gul' dan is a lot more oppressive and Jaina can turn around the whole game as well, so i think asking for a nerf to Malfurion is unfair!

Thanks for your responses! Well I guess I am a little prejudiced :p I will accept and add more people from now on, you are right, not everyone is toxic :)

I really like the nerfs this time. Everything is less oppressive,but still playable! In my opinion Gul'dan should get nerfed too though, he brings back a wall of taunts that you already broke once or 20-25 damage(doomguards) and it seems unfair to me. It would be more balanced if he brought back one of every demon played and not 6 same demons that could OTK you or never let you hit you opponent's "face".

So close yet so far! I guess that's even more annoying. I hope we get the same/similar promotions everywhere at some point, there is no reason not to.

It's even in the title! lol
