You do realise that the paladin decks were all a lot stronger than the mage deck? Its only the Deck of Lunacy highroll that drove mage to having a positive winrate. Yes the rest of the cards are good, but they aren't broken.
Agreeing partialy with fang here. There are a lot of things in this game I like and do not like. But it is amazingly arrogant of people to think they are the sole arbiters of what is fun and healthy. There are people out there that hate your favorite decks with a passion. But that doesn't always mean it should get nerfed.
Its a tough one. I can see what kind of purpose they fulfil and it helps slow down the game a bit. But to me personaly they just feel so bad to play against
Mage got propelled to insane levels due to the bad cards being rotated out. I will be honest I thought the problem card would have been Jandice Barov rather than Deck of Lunacy . And I am sure that Jandice will still be an issue if left untouched.
While I think this is one of the more disgusting early meta we have seen. Lets not forget that day 1 DH was so busted it needed multiple day 2 nerfs and more the following weeks. Then ofcourse there was Galakrond Shaman which was the best aggro, midrange and control deck when it just got released.
Like Yourprivatenightmare I too think people are focusing on mage too much and not on Paladin at all. The secrets are annoying but that is not the real reason why they are good right now. Sword of the Fallen is effectively a recruit card for cards you don't want to draw.
Another reason is, last year around this time Paladin was one of the worst classes of the game. They didn't add a lot of good cards to paladin in the year of the Dragon. (remember the year of the Dragon would normaly have had Genn and Baku Paladin was the only class with a good odd and even deck And because T5 works about 3 expansions ahead for a long time that was going to be what they had to work with)
So they got a few buffs on the libram set. Which was needed. However T5 kept adding really solid cards to paladin the last year to get Paladin up to par.
The last point is that Paladin got a way better core set. It lost a lot of bad cards. And the secrets are now playable aswell.
Which culminated to a point where paladin lost almost nothing from the year of the dragon, got very good cards in the year of the Pheonix and gained the single best card from this set with Sword of the Fallen .
My luck seemed to have been all over the place, got a bit unlucky with the pre-order, but in the 100 packs with gold I got like 10 legendaries with 3 of them being gold. All in all not too shabby
They could just run the libram weapon tbh thats a lot of damage to the face

Pen Flinger, Watch posts, Sword and deck of Lunacy I got what I wanted. Jandice is way to good so not surprised.
Which is a good thing. Decks shouldn't be nerfed to get them out of the meta. But to make them fall in line with the rest.
They don't balance cards for wild, and they shouldn't balance standard cards for wild. These nerfs are fine.

I have yet to play against a mage that doesn't have a T2 deck of lunacy.. wtf
The reaction I responded to changed therefor I changed mine aswell so it doesnt seem like I am agreeing with them.
HEY LOSER, WASN'T ME HEY LOSER, WASN'T ME HEY LOSER, WASN'T ME *rope starts to burn* HEY LOSER, WASN'T ME HEY LOSER, WASN'T ME

Thats why I am playing Burn Shaman lol, it destroys mage, is a bit worse against libram pally though, but I haven't lost to many of those.
Very much yes please
I am convinced that the only ones that don't have it are not running the card.
This is a really unfun card to play against

They need to delete those from the god damn game.
Briliant.
Removing golden core set cards doesn't do anything..
