DK is overpowered as hell

Multiplayer Discussion

There is almost no diversity in ranked because how busted these blood dk decks are.

Just to summerize what I mean;

Board wipes with built in lifegain
Free 3 damage done per turn via some legendary
Cheap 2-3 mana removals

Who is balancing these cards? :rofl:

It may be officially ā€œbalancedā€ but playing against Blood DK feels like punching yourself in the face. There is zero fun to be had, they show the same cards over and over, every game is drawn out like crazy and their lifegain + the patchwerk and steamcleaner removal ensure they donā€™t lose to combo. so it is just miserable and pointless to play against. It is the worst experience I have had in HS to date. I immediately concede against every single DK, donā€™t care if I lose a rank. That Blizz didnā€™t nerf this with the last patch is ridiculous and once again shows that they donā€™t play their own game.

Just hit platinum. Itā€™s a terrible experience.

Frost DK is easily much more annoying. There is no way they should have so much removal that also does face damage. Same problem with shadow priest.
And DKs have the one spell that does face damage + freeze your board + gets tempo with 5/5 minion. They nerfed the shaman minion that did similar, and that didnā€™t even do any face damage until next turn if it wasnā€™t blocked by taunt, AND it froze their own minions!!!

I finally give up, will visit this forum from time to time until I start to see topics about DK being trash tier and I can come back for the game.

DK is completely and insanely OP and it is clear at this point was the very intention of the devs.

HS should never introduce any new classes because they already had trouble before to balance 9.

I think the same people who argue DK is fine use DK themselves.

I was thinking the exact same. I love shaman, but I do not enjoy being pigeonholed into this braindead aggro totem deck because shaman has no other viable options. And even then, the totem deck isnā€™t even that good. The shaman class is nearly being pushed out of the meta entire. Thatā€™s horrible.

Play mage has positive win rate against all forums of dk rn.

Your answer: Blood dk is played by the devs and brings in most cashā€¦ Most played class most cash more portraits etc

Just look at how these moronic developers balance DK compared to other classes. Its always very minor nerfs. THis is going to be like 2020 all over again when it took a year of constant balance patches to make DH balanced since they wanted to keep selling DH packs and this is what they are doing with DK. Current team 5 is the epitome of the trash developers that are ruining blizzard.

Short memory you have. DK on release sucked and they had to BUFF it to be good. They learned from DH but overcorrected then overcorrected again.
