SMH they nerf this Dr. Boom but not the one that really deserved it at the time (obviously things change, but even though i'm being slightly tongue in cheek, talking context here, old Boom was way more OP relative to the available cards than new Boom)

also not thrilled with the reversion of extra arms and pocket galaxy. if they were unplayable before and too good after being buffed, why not try to meet somewhere in the middle rather than change them back to their old unplayable state? 

yeah, to make it 9 mana you're saying its hero power is as good as Gul'dan and Jaina to forbid using it on the same turn as playing it (sans coin), which seems questionable at best, and more likely outright absurd. on top of that, its battlecry is infinitely worse than Gul'dan or Jaina

best case scenario, this nerf is on par with Anduin after the Raza nerf, making it an ok card, but not top tier (but again, i don't think Boom is really all that close to Anduin pre-Raza nerf to start with, or with Gul'dan or Jaina). more utility/value than anduin on subsequent turns (but still less single-turn combo/burst potential), but much, much worse the turn you play it. setting up a turn where its even viable to play Boom will not be without challenges

love some of these late revealed legendaries. rogue and priest quests especially look amazing after very lackluster early quests and LoE callbacks. dammit, i may actually have to preorder now >.<

baby star aligner, but arguably harder to pull off for a worse reward (unless your opponent has no minions or just one with 5 or less health)

still, a super cool card, even if it almost certainly will see no play barring some cheap faceless manipulator type card yet to be revealed

if they didn't print badly-statted 10-drops during the days of spiteful summoner, they're not going to do it for conjurer's calling

what on earth are you banking that you want an immediate 2/2 copy of rather than putting it in your deck?

my body is ready

TANK UP CONTROL PALADIN NEW META

secretkeeper and windfury harpy art changes are good (and eviscerate looks exactly the same, so whatever there) but the other changes are horrible. the new deadly shot art isn't *bad*, but its nowhere near as good as the original. what possessed them to randomly change these cards????

sad to hear this. i don't spend as much time here as i used to (in large part because i don't play hearthstone nearly as much as i used to), but i still poke my head in almost every day just to see if there's any news, see if one of the top recent threads catches my eye, etc.

i suppose its true that all good things must come to an end though... it was a good run, thanks flux and all the mods and members that made this such a great home for hearthstone over the years.

Whoever thought it would be funny to bring Flamewaker back into standard needs a swift kick in the nuts! Can't have this level of stupid in our gene pool.

I wonder if they'll take the portraits from us if we support Hong Kong's liberation...

"You've lived a wholesome life, saved others, honored my name and you... You played Zoolock... Sorry my child I cannot accept you into my kingdom"

He put in more effort making that one card than Blizzard making an entire expansion.

Does anyone remember Dead Man's Hand warrior? Absent the turn limit that mirror match could go literally forever as each side stacks armor and copies the same handful of cards. 

Elysiana/Banker (or Brewmaster or whatever else) is only an issue in control mirrors with no win condition other than fatigue. It really isn't a problem.

Nope. The meta in standard is exactly the same as before. That is what happens when you nerf a deck that was not even seeing much play to begin with in the current meta.

The problem that I have seen in hearthstone new expansions is this. 80% of the card are garbage, 20% of the cards are good in which a few of the cards in the 20% end up being broken as hell. Pretty much every single expansion has been labelled as "The worst expansion ever" mainly because we tend to see most of the garbage revealed first.

In every single new expansion there has always been comments saying the expansion is going to suck, worst expansion ever, not wasting money on this expansion, not going to have an impact on the meta and every single time there are cards that fly under the radar, labelled as bad by the community and ended bending the meta over. It is like a repeating cycle, community initially unimpressed by card reveals, community says expansion is going to be the worse expansion ever, a new card ends up proving much more stronger that what the community originally thought it would be, a new deck comes forward and proceeds to break the meta, look at prince keleseth for example.

The grand tournament was probably the weakest expansion we ever had in hearthstone and it ended up spawning secret paladin, somehow and some way there will be a broken deck because of this set, at this point its pretty much guaranteed.

Well... I'm not too happy, to be honest. On the one hand, I think the right cards were targetted, on the other hand, I disagree with many of the new versions.

Naga Sea Witch is a card that, admittedly, did not see much play before the interaction was changed and the Giants strategy became possible. However, for the few decks that tried to go for a "big" strategy, it was also an interesting card, as it could provide significant cost reduction to late game minions. The new version limits it to ONLY the giants strategy. Outside of cheating 0 Mana giants, the card is completely useless now, and in addition to that, the strategy itself is not entirely resolved. It's quite possible that the strategy will be dropped, but I think the new version is too limiting for anything else that might come up in the future. I would have preferred if she had a limit to cost alteration like Summoning Portal. But I am happy that Wild Mode gets a bit of fresh air with this change.

Call to Arms is not really done well. It is unplayable for Even Paladin, and it is most likely not good enough for Odd Paladin, but still very powerful for any other Paladin deck. My main problem is, that the effect itself is a bit too strong. I think, the better solution would have been to reduce the effect to 2 minions. I suppose this was mainly done to make Even Paladin significantly worse, without changing the cards identity, but 5 Mana is still a bit too reasonable for any kind of Paladin that works without Even/Odd, such as Murlocs.

Crystal Core bothers me the most, honestly. Yes, the quest is poblematic and makes for very polarizing matches, but designing an entire deck around the quest, just to get 4/4s? I admit, I have no better solution in mind, but this just isn't worth it anymore. You might as well delete the card when you make it so lousy.

As for Possessed Lackey and Dark Pact, I really don't know. I don't know if this will make Cubelock bad enough for it to drop in popularity, and I don't know if it makes Cubelock bad enough for other decks to stand a much better chance now. But I'm sure, Control/Cube players will tell that this makes the deck borderline unplayable. I honestly lack the insight. But what mostly concerns me here is, I honestly don't know if it's a good time to nerf Cubelock. Granted, I despise the deck passionately, but out of all the aggressive decks, the only one that's gonna take a hit is Even Paladin, which is actually the least aggressive one. I really don't know if this was the right move.

Spiteful Summoneris the only card I can completely agree with. At 7 Mana, the card is still very strong, but for the mana curve, this is really pushing it and will make Druid and Priest a lot worse.Maybe it's enough to end all Spiteful decks, but if not, these decks will be quite a bit slower, which is already their biggest weakness.

All in all, I'm afraid we'll see a LOT more Murloc and Odd Paladins, just because they are the next best decks after Even loses a very important card now, and with Druid getting worse and Cube/Control getting worse, aggro is having a better position than before. However, Even Paladin was the stronger deck all around, and there might be some room for more anti-aggro decks, that don't have to fear losing automatically to Cubelock and Quest Rogue.

I'm not super thrilled about these nerfs, but I expected worse.
