I don't get the Sac Pact changes. It's been in the game since the beginning and nobody cared that it could kill some neutral demons. Can't have the new class you filled up with minions weak against the one class that also has demons galore now can we?

Yep, keep in original Sac Pact while Jaraxxus is still rarely used and allow a game loss. Sounds fine. Destroy Sac Pact after it's allowed to kill a Demon in your new OP deck that you have to fix repeatedly. WAY TOO POWERFUL! We don't want RnG to win games do we?!

A poorly designed card that is unintentionally keeping a broken class from completely running away with the meta is not a good reason to not fix the card.
That said, I hope this change gets them the data they need and they are swift with another round of fixes. I'm not certain those DH changes are enough. I did face that warrior deck yesterday for the first time, it is indeed a pain in the ass.

I don't play much Wild, but what does the Open the Waygate change actually accomplish? I mean, that's a OTK deck, right? The Time Warp is needed to perform the OTK, and can't be used for any other purpose. By the time you've drawn all the cards necessary to OTK, isn't having finished the quest basically guaranteed by then?

The only thing that really matters is whether or not your Vargoth is buried. I think they've wildly underestimated just how easy it is to complete the quest these days. Vargothed time-warp means you only need 2 giants.

Well like you said it was already rarely played before. It's only really useful with resurrect priest and that deck can't afford to be slower.
Well I will say the glaivebound adept nerf seems pretty meaningless. If a 7/4 or 6/4 survives a turn your chances of losing the game have gone up immensely. The one attack doesn't change much. At least the Altruis nerf, costing 1 more mana has some implications, but also fuck the developer who decided not to removed the hero damage despite the player base calling for it day 1. Like the Altruis nerf is such a child throwing tantrum "you can't tell me what to do" move.
This mf be spittin'.

You want me to nerf it's mana cost? Well I'm going to give it 1 more attack! I'll show you!
