Not gamebreaking at all. Ended with 12 triples. After hitting my buddy I got a 2nd copy off of Zephyr’s buddy the next turn, then got 2 copies of the make a buddy golden from Band Manager.
It was over after that because I was getting 4 copies of the next buddy and just tripled for 12 wins in a row. OP demon buddy curtesy of Jaraxxus.
So much going on that I didn’t know what to do but it literally didn’t matter.

As I noted in another thread, the health of your hero is not the problem, the op nature of many buddies would nuke you even if you had 60 health.
There are some really, really strong ones in the pool.
Yeah I’m not exactly sure what they were going for with the additional armor. It’s virtually irrelevant, once buddies hit the floor your minions either line up to get you into the top 4 or you’re done. Unless of course someone high rolls into obnoxiousville like that Scabbs combo.
Highroll is unavoidable with many of the buddies.
And the rest are just trash.
+3/+3 to dragons in the shop is game breaking… /s
It is though, you gots these 3 stats and hit this Chrono and oh no wait so you get this Tessiegoosie and oh no yeah pretty sure it’s trash 
I have played five games today.
I know why I was happy to see buddies go… and I am not happy they are back.
This meta sucks. Highroll or die. Mostly die.
Idk why they messed up a good thing.
Eh, I get that but to be fair it’s been high roll or die since Undead came in obliterating everything. It’s just faster now and Undead are at least not necessary.
100% disagree. It’s been a refreshingly honest tempo meta since this season began.
Highroll has been the name of the game for top one, but top four has been awesome in that you can play lots of stuff and you are rewarded for creativity and lateral thinking. There are so many ways to bank health going into the late game, but none of that matters with turn 7 hits for 30 from some golden buddy menace with unlimited resources blowing up everything.
I am thinking I will uninstall again if i don’t like standard after rotation because I don’t see myself slogging through the bullchips buddy crap. Hero powers are just way too imbalanced for this to be a thing.
