Maybe, the reason this kind of card is never played is because get sap or removed for 3 mana, this card have some potencial

Paladin is op with the coin, you always give a dude to the opponent when you press the button, without the coin that is not the case. Very weird.
So paladin always win with the coin (almost always)

Great article, i fully agree. I don’t want superpowers and superweakness, i just want the player to have more influence over the game, by having more options and hard decisions, but i often feel we are going in the opposite direction and HS looks more like a film that a game.

Around 1 pack every 10 hours and not even guaranteed, they are so generous.
Also only 10% of the time is actual gameplay (the time before the rope start to burn don’t count), no thank you

I would like the Highlander decks if they have 10 not so absurd payoffs instead of having a lot of power concentrated in 2 cards
I agree that 2 power spikes is terrible design
But is been like this since the beginning, i think that the end of the slot machine meta would be great for the game, but the devs disagree, the game has been very successful for a long time, they think they have the right recipe

I like the extra arms nerf because cleric + EA is too powerfull opening. And the deck is tier 1 for sure, probably will remain tier 1.
Once again hunter scaped the nerfs, as i predicted, and will probably be the best deck if the meta don’t go full aggro , control warrior may be boring but is a big part why is not a full aggro meta yet.
What beats hunter? zoo, murlocs and token druid.
RIP mage
Very nice nerf to barnes, finally, i think will no longer be part of big priest

RIP 25000 dust reno mage

RIP mage, murloc meta.
At least they finally nerf barnes

Poly or barista or anything you want really

Me too, but hunter always scape balance changes and become the best class historically, also is not that easy to find the more problematic cards, exept 4 mana 7-7 and zul’jim witch i doub will be touchet

I doub they will nerf Prismatic Lens and Tip the Scales, barnes still is out there, this is barnes 2.0. Look like they really like to make skill as irrelevevant as possible, the old new player experience excuse. I really hope i’m wrong

Pack filler

Reno is very strong but i doubt mage can make a highlander deck atm, just to put in 1 or 2 payoff cards

Sure you want to use all your mana, but just play a pile of stats every turn is getting old after 5 years
Would not be cool if secrets are played to not overextend in to a board that is about to be clear, instead of be played because there is unfair support cards like hunter spellstone ? (every expansion has a unfair secret support, instead of reduce the power level off play well stated minios every turn)
Would not be cool having more comeback cards like defile? defile is “OP” but is good for the game.
It will always be a tempo game, but play a 1 drop,2 drop,3 drop,4 drop,5 drop… win is too silly, this can’t go on for 5 more years

If genn and baku are fixed, another play on curve deck will take their place, they need to stop the play on curve meta.

The real reason for the nerfs : all HS streamer are playing auto chess, and i’m pretty sure this nerfs are not enough to change this, for the streamers an for me.

I play for 4 years, the game become boring because i know how things will play out almost every game, if x happen i win, if y happen i lose, often i know who will win just looking at both player class and my inicial hand. Deck building don’t exist, there is very feel decks, with very simple win conditions.
I want more strategy, more hard decisions, not like, mage had a perfect hand and kill me in 5 turns, nothing i can do, druid had a perfect hand, nothing i can do….
At this point, i know it will not happen, the game will always be to simple for my taste.
I don’t want more grinding for cosmetics. I want to see the best HS player in the world have 95% win rate.
