Balance Changes - Reverting Card Nerfs Soon
In a highly unusual development, Blizzard, through Dean "IksarHS" Ayala, today announced on twitter that they are going to un-nerf several cards, 5 Wild cards, 4 Year of the Raven cards (rotating to Wild), and 1 Year of the Dragon card.
We don't know which cards they will be yet, but since they are drawn from a short list of nerfed cards, there won't be too many options.
Which cards do you want to see un-nerfed?
Quote from Dean "IksarHS" AyalaPlanning on reverting a handful of card nerfs just before the upcoming set rotation.
We’ll share details on exactly what those cards are in the next couple weeks but they currently include 5 Wild cards, 4 Year of the Raven cards (rotating to Wild), and 1 Year of the Dragon card.
Quote from Dean "IksarHS" AyalaSharing thoughts always comes with the risk that things can change, so if those numbers don’t end up being final it was in the name of iteration! I wonder if anyone will guess exactly the right 10 cards
. When the time comes we’ll announce them on official Hearthstone channels.
I hope for yogg too
Shaman's formerly 1 mana invoke/freeze spell is a good candidate for unnerfing. They went a bit too far with that one and turned a decent but not at all oppressive Frog Shaman deck into trash.
Preeeeetty good news.
unnerf Raza and wild growth, hof it if necessary. druid need its ramp.
Druid has breath of dreams so maybe wild growth can be reverted and HOF. Raza would make combo priest tier 1, bad idea.
Being that they clearly and prematurely nerfed so many Shaman cards I'm willing to bet Dragon's Pack is reverted.
My guesses are:
1. Sludge Slurper.
2.Reckless Experimenter.
3.Giggling Inventor.
4.Dr. Boom, Mad Genius.
5.Raiding Party.
6.Dark Pact.
7.Call of the Wild.
8.Small-Time Buccaneer.
9.Level Up!.
10.Spiteful Summoner.
Reckless Experimenter will never be unnerfed due to a busted interaction with SN1P SN4P.
It doesn't matter because echo cards can't cost less than 1 anymore
All the echo cards have been nerfed so that their cost cannot be reduced below 1, therefore reckless experimenter nerf can be reverted
Oh heck no Small-Time Buccaneer. That thing is cancer, and Pirate warrior is still strong in wild.
Interesting picks.... though I think they will pick cards that will still be standard next year
Only mad genius and spiteful are safe unnerfs, the rest will break wild.
I also would like to see some changes of cards which are not used any more cause of the bad nerfs f.e. Millhouse. Not unnerf them but changing them a little bit so their battlecry/effect is no longer a autoloss or at lest extremly bad for the person who plays them.
Personally I don't like Raza and yogg, so I hope they won't get unnerfed. Barnes same too.
It's about time
Is it 5 wild + 4 year of the raven + 1 year of the dragon or is it 5 cards which includes 4 year of the raven and 1 year of the dragon?
The first :-)
omg yes! yes!!! :D
While it isn't reverting the Ancient of Lore nerf it is great news for all of us wild exclusive players.
Oh boy cant wait for Barnes and Raza.
Unbann good old patches, so that he can finally be in charrrrge again! This friend of mine hasn't been the same since a long time, although we reached for the stars together in former times🤣🤣🤣🤣!
