Well they are definitely going to nerf it, but I think they will just wipe patron out completely unfortunately.

I don't want it killed completely, but it pretty much is ruining everything the way it is now.

It is definitely the top 5 most op decks in Hearthstone history.

I really think their internal M.O. is to make sure every deck has multiple archetypes. Which would mean they like Patron since previously control was really the only way War was played, and it wasn't conducive to new players having resources to build the deck either. Its evident in some of the things they are doing with class cards this expansion. They don't care about balance as much as diversity so that new or casual players have multiple paths to playing every class.

You're crazy what game have you been playing? Are you really saying they want to keep this intact the way it is..

They always nerf the insane decks, and it started with Alpha Miracle. They hate domination, it was one of their bullet points in the original Hearthstone seminar at Blizzcon. They track it specifically

This is not the only time Warrior has been crazy lets not forget the long forgotten OTK warrior ( Pours one for the homies). In fact Warsong was nerfed specifically to stop that deck.

Charging Moltens was so fun.

Patron will get nerfed and it will likely be warsong commander or frothing that takes the hit. The Grim Patron card is not going to get nerfed.

Well it would be right in time for the nerf, Undertaker took about five months. If they leave it as is much longer then it seems obvious they don't care.

Pretty much and then warsong will most likely be MIA from then on

So what does the Patron Warrior mirror match do? Is revenge a bomb in the mirror or do you run Belchers and pray?

Or they could treat this like an actual CCG: let the new set release and wait a bit to see what shakes out before they go crazy nerfing cards/decks in to unplayability.

Best change I've ever heard for patron warrior is to make Frothing Berserker only get +1 damage for each minion damaged ONCE per turn. That way Patron warrior is still a great deck but none of this retarded 30-50 damage in one turn crap.

I haven't heard of any other "fix" that wouldn't completely kill patron warrior.

I'd like to see it actually played some but that sounds like the best idea I've heard for changing patron warrior without ruining the deck.

That's only 6 extra damage if you have a full board. So yeah Worgen is still better because its potential is 16 on one turn from one minion.

I would say change Frothing slightly to only gain attack when friendly minions are damaged, and change Battle Rage to not count the hero and possibly +1 mana to its cost.

This way the Frothings can still get huge but it requires the God draw (or existing board control) while not punishing the opponent for building his board. Reduced effectiveness of the draw engine would make the deck a little less consistent.

I have the impression that standard control warrior is still played more than patron in the ladder and maybe this has to do with patron being a bit difficult to be played well by the average player and also the resurgence of handlock and its variants.
