Leapfrogger really proves that they do absolutely no playtesting, it might be the single most broken card in the history of battlegrounds. Like Megasaur Murlocs was oppressive but it wasnt so good that everyone forced murlocs every game.

Just adding to the retardation of BGs. I've been a top 4 finisher for over 90% of games played in the 8-9k bracket, but had a really hard time taking first places since my late game sucked.

Since patch all I do is win, win, win because frogs.

Way to ruin both standard card game and BGs even as a time waster ;[

It's saying they are banning a card. Reddit seems to believe it will be the Warlock Quest Line will be banned from play in Wild.

Well yeah, but a card that auto wins you the lobby when you high roll it is bad for the game.

The macaw nerf is more important than the frog nerf. Good. Fuck beasts.

It hasn't had a semblance of balance in the entire year that I've played tbh. Easily the worst of the autobattlers if you are remotely good at the genre or the best I guess if you just want to feel good about having high rating with little effort.

Am I missing something on the Macaw? It reads to me like the only difference is it can't trigger it's own deathrattle (so if frog lands on it)

yeah basically, just another hit to the frog build in an effort not to just delete that dumbass minion.
