Um, they will always take the easy way out. Patron will get nerfed.

I'm surprised people still can't catch on to how Blizzard thinks about Hearthstone by now...

I can't think of a time since Alpha they have ever listened to anything coming out of the community.

Whats that have to do with anything....

You can still have a competitve game, and make huge profits.

No clue what your point is with that statement.

Doubt it.

Anyone remember if they give you more dust then you bought your golden patrons for if they nerf a card? Can't remember their policy on that shit.

I'm agreeing with you by the way.

WoW is stale and this is Blizzard's cash cow now. Minimal programming needed but huge profits. They will absolutely please the masses and if enough people cry nerf then they will most probably do it to keep the majority happy and to keep them playing and buying packs.

When they nerf a card, you get whatever dust it costs to make the card, if you nuke it.

I like how no one gives a shit about hunters or Dr. Boom now though.

It's always been the way. Bitch about hunter. New cards come out that make another deck viable and it gains traction. People bitch about that and it gets nerfed. Go back to having hunter be the only viable ladder deck and people continue bitching about it. People say they want diversity but apparently they don't.

Yeah, patron is awful, they waste the entire 90s when they are on 2 health and no chance in killing me. I have to keep hearing, "Git in here!"

I love how arena can sometimes give you new ideas. Got a Cogmaster's Wrench in a rogue draft so decided to make a Oil Mech deck and it has been surprisingly effective. Been playing a good bit of oil rogue and hero power only having two charges is a bit of a drag sometimes, like especially when your opponent has a taunt minion. The wrench having 3 charges is perfect.

There's a big difference between being viable and being overpowered. Patron Warrior is just over that line in my opinion. Blizzard has stated numerous times that they don't want players to be able to win games from an empty board and burst their opponent down 30 health. With Patron Warrior that isn't only possible it's not hard to pull off.

Huntard is annoying. People hate the deck because there is no interaction between players. The Huntard is playing solitaire. The other player is on the defensive. As soon as things start to change, the Huntard loses. Huntards are meta warping (i.e. you need to build you deck with the idea of at least going 50/50 with Huntards) but they are not overpowered. Incredibly annoying? Absolutely. But there are plenty of counters. Huntard is simply annoying because it's the end result of a game that rewards aggro.

I've grown to enjoy hunter because zoo has dominated the meta since the game's inception and huntard keeps those pesky warlocks in check.

Just watched Sjow hit rank 1 on EU with like 10 minutes to go before end of season. Pretty funny, he went from 16 to 1 in two matches after grinding forever in the low 20s/upper teens.
