Card Nerfs and Lunar New Year Patch Delayed
The patch that was due for early this afternoon has been delayed. We don't know when it will be coming out.
Quote from @PlayHearthstoneWe’ve discovered an issue with today’s scheduled update, but we’re hard at work to resolve it. We’ll stay in touch with more information as it becomes available, and share an ETA as soon as possible.
UPDATE
We now expect today’s update to become available at 1:30 pm PST. Some players on mobile devices may experience issues with sound or animations. We plan to roll out a hotfix for affected players in the coming days. Thanks everyone for the patience. (source)
Hmm, except that they did give compensation for the delayed rollout: they have extended the event by a day.

:O!
WOW you must feel really terrible that Blizzard has really gone out of their way to appease us poor "entitled" folks, since you hate getting free shit so much. I'm so sorry to inform you that Blizzard has a better business philosophy than you.
Middle-sized indie company.
Do we get a day extra to the fest because of the day delay ?
Meanwhile, we are already celebrating Lunar New Year from last day. Shirvallah, the Tiger: Too slow!
No EU, maybe you should restart the bnet client.
Patch is downloading now...
Are you in NA? In EU, nothing is happening.
Nice Blizz. With all the money that you made with pre-orders you have problem in developing a patch in order to change 4 texts? It seems good.
wasn't the patch supposed to be out by now??
Look blizzard has not made a free pack worthy mistake in like a year, give me my dang packs.
Non of these are actually used for the same reason only dire wolf is sometimes is used

Would be interested to know the technical specifics of the problem, and it's a pain, but I guess I have to acknowledge they've at least been good letting us know there's a problem and when we can expect it resolved.
I have tried whirling zap-o-matic in even shaman. its not bad, really dont understand why more lists aren't running it.
3/2 is bad dies easily and you want sticky boards to win(also its horrible vs odd rogue and in mirrors as it dies from eel and jade claws)
I get it. After trying to apply the patch, Blizzard discovered that new decks became overpowered and more nerfs were needed. Stay tuned...
I am excited what basic and classic cards will be the next targets. -.-
I'll bet they just wanted extra time to ladder with even shaman and odd rogue.
holly shit my thoughts exactly. i had the even shaman cards for my alt account but never bothered playing it. so yesterday i tried to give a spin and holly molly was i in shock. its easy af to ladder up on the wild ladder with it. and i dont think the flametongue nerf will reduce its impact that much
I’ve squeaked out like 50 shaman wins since the announcement. Closing in on gold portrait and taking advantage of the high win rate aggro deck while it’s there.
