So how is Standard after the release of the MotLK mini-set?

If that’s the case, then Standard must currently be suffering from some design and balance issues. I would not know, since I have not been playing Standard for quite some time now.

Looking at HSReplay, Shaman (mostly Evolve Shaman) and DK (mostly Frost, but also Unholy and Blood) have been enjoying about a 4 to nearly 5 percent lead or better against 8 of the other classes. Hunter looks dead, without a dog in the fight.

Evolve Shaman looks like it’s been the most popular deck, but a recent nerf that removed Neptulon the Tidehunter from the pool of cards that some cards could be transformed into will possibly topple Evolve Shaman from being the best deck. I would expect to see even more DK players this week.

I have seen complaints about turn 6 OTKs in the forums, and while the meta may be fresher, it might also have bigger problems than it did before the mini-set—IDK—which is a reason I was looking for feedback about how Standard is right now.
