Balance Changes Coming In 2 Weeks
Alec Dawson has just shared some important information about the upcoming balance changes, read more about it below.
Quote from BlizzardAlso so that there’s transparency, still planning to do balance changes post MT. We’ll be deciding those sometime next week and they’ll be in-game the week after. Those could certainly include cards in the battle-ready decks but as of right now we have not made final decisions.
A Legend player, so impressive.
I didn't say the match-up was good, did I? I just said Secret Pally, Spell Mage and Clown Druid are worse (according to HSReplay). Even if Tickatus was nerfed, Control Warrior would be bad and you would complain that it's unplayable.
The control warrior deck with Gore and Taelan and Faceless has 61% winrate vs Warlock (https://hsreplay.net/decks/cgJWYbzkE5XJirWQDDy9Je/#tab=overview) but it loses hard to Mage and Paladin.
The 61% winrate vs Warlock is Bronze - Gold
It's 74% at his rank.
In my opinion, tickatus is a big problem. Unfortunately, this card ruined the ability to play with combo or control decks of other classes. I like to play a control warrior or control shaman, but destroying 10 cards reduces my chances to zero .... Very sad, especially since Guldan has a Lord Jaraxxus card, which is already brilliant in itself. Can something be done about it? Tickatus is exaggerated because it destroys two archetypes: control decks and combo decks.
Tikcatus Warlock isn't even the worst match-up for Control Warrior. Secret Pally, Spell Mage and Clown Druid are worse. If you want to beat Warlock put Rattlegore, Taelan Fordring, Faceless Manipulator and Teron Gorefiend in your deck. Warlock can't deal with 2-4 Rattlegore. And no C'Thun of course (or any other 9+ mana minions).
Conviction to 2 mana.
Agreed. That card is so busted, make it 2 mana or give +2 atk instead of 3. Or just delete crabrider
Tickatus
Hmm i wonder if they will nerf a spring water to draw 4 mana draw 2 but reduce cost of spells drawn by 1 (2mb)
I want Kazakus nerfed to “destroy 3 cards” from opponents deck, or else, cost 9 mana.
well, thats for sure a nerf i wasnt specting for Kazakus, but, ok (its Tickatus the one you wanted to say)
(expecting is the word you wanted to say)
true, i i confused the words, thanks for pointing it
(specting is not a word) love you bro
Specting is a synonymous for "watching", like "i'm specting a friendly game"
spectate .....Specting is not a word lol
I see...ok i also missed that part spect"ate", that explains s lot, thanks again
Refreshing Spring Water doesn't need to get nerfed. People who thing this card is problem are deluded and not very smart. Spell Mage is not a problem anymore.
They also have to think about future sets. Having a “draw 2 cards” for 0 mana will hamstring their designs for the next 2 years if they don’t handle it now.
*Laughs in OTK Mage*
Trying to think what will be nerfed.
Refreshing Spring Water will definitely get nerfed, probably Only 1 mana per spell drawn.
Crabrider I think will get nerfed to 1/3. 4 hp is too much to deal with and that card alone can easily win the game for both pally and warrior.
I'm hoping Illidari Inquisitor gets nerfed somehow. It's going to become a problem later down when DH gets better cards.
But then again, several classes have problems cards like that. Rogue especially between wicked stab being evis on steroids and secret passage.
