18.0.3 Server Hotfix - Nozdormu Can No Longer Be Summoned From Dream Portals
Blizzard just announced a server-side hotfix addressing an important bug with Nozdormu and Dream Portal animations.
Quote from BlizzardHey everyone,
We’re currently deploying a hotfix (18.0.3) that includes the following:
Nozdormu can no longer be summoned from Dream Portal created by Ysera, Unleashed.
Fixed a Battlegrounds bug where Nat Pagle, Extreme Angler could cause combat to have different outcomes from each player's perspective.
These changes will take place on the server-side, so you won’t need to download anything if you’ve already updated to 18.0.
I support this, there is a lot of cheating in the game (Malganis on turn 4-5), a lot of res effects, and copy minion effects (using on deathrattles) giving really powerful value. It really feels bad that when you don't play with Mage or Shaman you only can use Zeph on transform (if you play highlander) and he almost in 90% won't offer it because removing it is more valuable than transforming, even though you get screwed with its deathrattle and res after. (don't go on me with Zeph can't read deathrattles and predict your opponent gameplan, I know but he lacks in this spectrum so he can't be counted as transform effect). Unnerfed Overspark would be cool to have.
This game has become boring when you see only druid on ladder. Nozdormu is problem? Funny joke... no one cares about broken cards like Survival of the Fittest or fast ramp for druid with Guardian Animals. I stopped playin Hearthstone until next nerfs of actually broken cards.
we are playing different games then, i mostly see paladin and rogue
Metastats: top 20 most played deck: Stealth Rogue, Aggro Hunter and Pure Paladin.
Hearthpwn Users: fucking Druid.
The only druid deck I see is aggro druid, and even then its mostly decks like stealth rogue, aggro hunter, pure pally, mech pally, and other tempo/aggro based decks. Any other deck I stopped seeing after I hit gold rank. (I got past gold in standard and wild)
But like many other card games, the lower rank you are (Or in this game the less close to legend) the more likely you battle random decks that almost seem net decked because they work better at those ranks.
(Mech pally is an exception to many though since it is more in wild)
Small indie company problems
Nah dude entire game is just Else if command .
So as usual rather than fix a problem that's been around for years, they just try to avoid the problem.
"Battlecry: Players only have 15 seconds to take their turns until this leaves the battlefield."
Nozdormu is an awesome card and should stay in the game. Animations have always been apart of the game and having a shorter timer is an awesome way to disrupt an opponent. It is not a "bug," that's ridiculous.
I just hope they don't have a variable with each card name
Lol so it wil be played in every single deck.
Just change Nozdormu's effect into a Battlecry?
LOL
The interesting part of Nozdormu is that the effect can backfire. The burning rope is passed from one player to another like a hot potato.
A battlecry would eliminate that.
Indie company way to fix things, lol.
He is getting HoFed next year anyways with the new basic and classic sets.
they gonna get rid of maly druid, craft it gold and trust me, every broken deck had been HoFed once I got my hands on it
they can't even stop timer when handling animations in the first place
true masters, just artificially remove a card instead
shameful display
Not only should Nozdormu be updated, all of the garbage Classic Legendary cards. I don’t mean bad cards like Millhouse Manastorm or Lorewalker Cho where their effects have meme potential. I mean stuff so bad it’s painful to see it still exists. The Beast and Hogger are just 2 examples. They wouldn’t be good even for common cards. Please Blizz, Update/Replace the awful legendaries in classic. They don’t have to be OP, but at least make them do something interesting and Impactful like when Brightwing and High Inquisitor Whitemane were added. New players deserve to have their first Legendary to be a good one.
Amen to that.
