17.6 Balance Updates

[Marcoscongas-1413]

And you expect me to believe that in a meta where Pirate Warrior dumps 5 Pirates by 3, a deck that can’t deal 4 damage on turn 4 is going to do well without being able to deal with a Tempo Flamewaker on 3?

[Rukanth-1690]

Before there was ussually a limit of ACTUALLY having to draw the cards or use a gasp twinspell to trigger it. Flamewaker broke a lot of brawls. Contrary to belief there isn’t a 3 mana deal 4 aoe to all minions card. As for caring, sure why don’t we save some time and you just believe whatever you want to. You seem to be about as receptive as a brick wall with a echo microphone on that only speaks to listen to itself.

[Marcoscongas-1413]

What are you talking about?

First of all, in your scenario, Flamewaker was dropped on 3.

So that’s 3 turns of possible board development.

Second, you would have had 4 mana on 4.

Third, you don’t need AOE, just 4 damage single target removal (if you went AFK turns 1-3).

Nerf rogue … was that really necessary?

Geez, demon hunter got smashed in the face hard!

It is and still will be the strongest aggro class, even after so many nerfs. You can just imagine how insanely unbalanced it was since the beginning.

[arhelogic-2985]

Hey there!! Blizzard are you insane? Mage have nothing against DH and you guys make things more worse . U should open statistics to see that amazing balance -mage against Demon hunter win rate 1:9 … thanks guys nice path !!

I will be bewildered if DH still manages to be Tier 1 after their 5th set of nerfs. Pretty much all of their good cards have been nerfed, how could they still have a functional deck after this?

I wont cause the majority of the community is trash at this game and act like know it alls.

@Rukanth-1690

Sherlock, a coin gives 1 mana and evocation fills your hand. If they have 1 more mana, they can cast more spells genius and more random bs stats. Besides there’s no 3 mana deal 4 damage card in a lot of decks or classes. Any board that you have tends to be obliterated the turn it comes out because it shoots every minion for 2. And honestly the fact that a mage needs to be considered a threat always with the potential for casting 20 spells from 1-2 cards in hand just because of topdecking sorcerer + apprentice BS is just bs.

Not to mention sherlock that there is this magical thing known as “Later turns” where they have more mana and can roll just more bs on a turn 5. Trying to kill them is a nighmare being put on a clock and even if you do, they just iceblock and otk you through it anyways. The new 1 mana Evocation card just completely breaks the quest mage archetype honestly imo. They should at least have to spend at least 1 mana on a spell to trigger flamewaker or quest credit imo if they’re gonna play 20 spells a turn for free in a single 1 mana card. Or change it to a 1 mana add 3 temporary spells like Warlock’s Soularium which is still a very powerful.

Couldn’t of said it better myself. If people cant see that mage is the most broken class in wild they clearly must not be playing at any respectable rank. Even odd DH has next to no chance vs mage.

Just stop! You are embracing yourself at this point.

this card doesn’t make any sense. It’s a legendary card but it’s so RNG dependandt that can be trash/god. I don’t get why they printed it, they could have made something better for elemental mage/kadgar mage.

@Rukanth-1690

Besides there’s no 3 mana deal 4 damage card in a lot of decks or classes.

this is literally how I lost many games against quest mage (not reno since they run duplicates).
By turn 3 you can draw 10 cards (if you have cards to draw) and still not have an answer to a 4 health minion, unfortunately.
Fun to notice that they printed a “2 mana, 1/3, when you cast a spell deal 1 damage to a random enemy minion”. 1 mana less, -1/-1 in stats, -1 damage and you can’t damage your opponent

[TheRuler-1446]

When is the patch going live ?

[Urza-1177]

Flamewaker is busted op. Always has been. But its wild so its ok I guess?

[anon19241858]

So …
<looks at clock>
<looks at calendar>

… is it time?

About 40 more minutes pal.

[SuperLegend-1332]

woot. 7500 dust

[thundR-21222]

after 4 month, i can say: hl decks are killed, dqa never used - its a safe disenchant target.

[Viriato-1156]

Of course he has “infinite” value cards. He has no motor draw!! He has to keep his fuel some way while enemy players draws tons of cards. Blizzard removed all viable way to draw for priest in exchange of “infinite” value cards, that was the trade-off and everyone was ok with that, but , oh no, now, you are not. Bring back combo priests!!, the one they reworked because you cried a lot.
