Jade Guardians, is another day of design balance credibility lost. Although their design balance credibility is already in the toilet, so maybe it doesn’t matter.
Why do you still play?
Ignored
Characters and stuff
Jades , maiev , hunter core …there r many things that they should nerf but they not doing it , incompetent balance team
Yep yep. Hunter doing 15 damage in tripwires for no mana and boards of 5 drop beasts for no mana, Shaman and Paladins putting up absurd stats turns 1-4. Game is a joke at this point.
For real , and looks like some people dont understand that we want to play in a balanced meta , ik it is imposible balance everything but there r 3 or 4 things that every1 know they r broken
In case you missed it. The developers already responded to the 1 change yesterday. Their hands are tied due to how and when they do the balance patches. They literally cannot just make massive changes to the game with the snap of their fingers. It takes quite a while to make those changes and then have a window to put them out in.
Their system is old and it’s the schedule they have commited to. They will NOT do changes to the game even if it’s utterly broken. At this point banning cards is all they can do immediately and they rarely ever do that.
The next balance window is end of next week but more likely the following week.
I understand that. My comment was more about how blatantly broken the card is, and the only reason I can fathom as to why they released it in the first place was due to this being the “rule-breaking” set, where apparently creating cards that break expectations of balance is just to be expected.
It was more of a general statement to all not directed. Players think you can just patch this and fix it willy-nilly and that’s not how their system works. They have a plan of how they want the meta to look that they are sticking.
I wouldn’t even expect much in the next balance patch. They will rely on the class set to steer things in the direction they want. I am very curious what the sets are.
I try telling people balancing the game isn’t as easy as they think, especially Wild, you change 1 thing on 1 card and it can have a ripple effect. But nope they want X changed so their broken strategy can be used
Or they want Y changed just because that’s the last thing the lost to.
Funny how when a cheap deck does well (Void DH), they suddenly find the time/resources to nerf it, but not the decks that cost more like Shaman or Paladin.
Jade guardians is the same in kind as Void Soul, except it’s far easier to play 2 drop spell and minions than to only get the win condition with void souls and the weapons/minions that create them.
Void DH was fine putting in check many of the other OP decks in the meta.
Took them 13 days to nerf Jade Guardians. 13 days too slow in my opinion.
Edit I totally didn’t notice the balance patch is tomorrow.
