Warlock have no chance against priest
What a joyfull patch played against a jade druid and an aggro warrior lost both of them.. yeap the nerf's worked.. Kappa..
i hate these nerfs

Epic card, 2 mana 3/2 weapon cant attack heroes
Thats how you make moneyz boyz
Why the fuck is that even a concern for people obviously blizzard won't do that
Welcome to the nerf
For mill decks, look at the Dead Man's Hand Warrior deck that's poped up. I would recommend either to go with Dogs version (perhaps Trump's -- think it's the same not sure) or Strifecro's N'Zoth version which has the potential to do both.
They're about as hard to play decks Hearthstone can offer though, so be sure to do some research.
Mill deck? If this crap become serious, we'll just have to craft and play Benedictus for free wins.
u mean draws? nobody will ever reach fatigue with dead mans hand lol
No visual bug fix??!
live for every region i believe for PC, on mobile we may have to wait a few more hours
So if you play mobile and haven't updated yet, does the game prevent you from matching up against updated desktop players? I wonder how that works on their end.
Basically yes.
That's correct. Each patch has its own pool to play in.
So... I will try my Murloc decks after patch and then dust everything...
Cool! They also changed the name of innervate to "Coin of the Wild" 😆
Welcome to a new era of Hearthstone, where Rockpool Hunter is by far the strongest turn 2 in Standard and Priests reign supreme. Let it begin!
Good bye my love (Astral Druid).
I will miss this deck every time i queue into wild.
