nerfs are incoming for priest for some reason it was not the best class and had a lot of counters + low winrate according to HS and they dont nerf shaman or DH… WOW.

I can’t say I’m surprised. They always nerf the spell classes harder and faster than any others.

To make streamers happy who otherwise will just complain and moan about it. Priest has been hit now 3 times : 2x hysteria nerfs and whatever crap they nerf next week.
What a joke.
This will just lead into a surge of shaman decks which i find even more broken than priest.

More worried about the face hunter
We all know how Blizzard likes the Kabal classes nothing above tier 3 and even then if they start to get a few wins its nerf hammer time.
I realy dont know how people are still surprised by this.

I don’t think anyone enjoys playing VS control priest. To quote the british Hstone eSport caster (forgot his name), the class is designed to do nothing.
How people know who will be nerfed? Are nerfs revealed?
I hope they dont touch palm reading, nerfing shadow priest before even releasing it.
FunkiMonki predicts Renew and Apotheosis. He was saying make Renew to 2 mama so you can’t wandmaker it, also delaying Renew+ Xyrella combo. Apotheosis change to 1/2
1/2?? That basically kills it, wow.

It was his guess but it’s a really good guess to fix one of their many problem cards. The only real fix to priest is a new set that has a bunch of subpar spells to throw into the discovery pool.
That’s the worst fix though. Why print bad cards? That doesn’t fix anything, all it does is add bad cards to the game for no reason.

The cards aren’t supposed to be bad, exactly. Just more diversified. The problem with discover at the moment is it’s too easy to get board clears, which is what priests always want. If they mixed in some damage spells and summon spells too, the cards wouldn’t be worse, just different.
No it has the highest winrate at high legend. Balance is done at this lvl.

I really don’t mind priest generates a spell here and there occasionally, but when you can wandmaker/ scorpid find renew, renew to find raise dead, raise dead pull those minion back and generates more renew or palm reading, and your palm reading can find more renew and raise dead. It’s an endless cycle. When I play warlock and burn 10 of their cards, but to find they still have more cards than me, I scratch my head sometimes.

but with the new expansion the pool is going to change making those cards less consistent

We dont know the cards but they said its was 3 cards and both Priest and Druid are the targets.

as usual when there are nerfs 2 weeks before an expansion, the nerfs are likely in preparation for synergies that might be too strong with the new expansion (corsairs cache before they announced the weapon synergy cards for example)
