I kinda disagree here : Jandice is an alternate win condition for those case where your weapon is not enough. Greenskin instead of jandice makes the deck more one dimensional and therefore weaker in the long run.
Also having 1 mana stealth is imho way too important to remove the worgen.
Okay now that we have experience we can safely say that all the fears were not justified : not only no one ever will bring this in a competitive event, but also no one on the ladder.
The reason of this is this card is beyond terrible! The player that plays it will loose 90 % of the time. Literally any t10 is better. Even if you're in a situation where one of the effect could save you, you just have 20% to get it, and some other effect will instakill you.
I have played some druid Yogg and the best strat is definitely to never ever play the card. It's consistently bad, you can't ever find a situation where it would actually have a chance to benefit you. It could have been a fun card if at least you could get something from it from time to time, but its only purpose is to make sure you can't win.
Yeah that's quite a big deal, I never bought the pass cause all my gold was going to standard or arena, but 1250 for Battleground pass and 4 arena tickets is suddenly much more interesting.
About HSReplays stats, do we know if they made adjustments in the way they compute those win-rate since new ladder came out?
From my own experience, many games in legend and diamond are actually irrelevant, for instance at rank 20k atm, I sometimes face some level 10-8 diamonds, and there can only be 2 outcomes : 1 - I'm playing a meme deck and they can win, 2 - I'm playing a real deck and I will probably not loose.
I think that at some MMR, games should just be thrown out their stats, just as they don't take gold league into account, and as they can't estimate MMR, HSReplay is currently unable to filter out irrelevant games.
Maybe if they had a filter with (rank 5-rank 1) + (top 5000 legend) only it would work better but I don't know if they can do this.
It's always interesting to see HSReplays' deck cause they're alway a bit counter intuitive.
For instance I don't think I have seen a spell druid in weeks, and to me this deck is not even tier 2 anymore. I have not tested this version though.
Btw the bomb warrior is good, it's Odemian's version I advertised a few weeks ago (it took me to legend) but depending on what you face, the usual egg warrior is prolly still better. What you need to know is this deck is stronger against rogues and priests (this match up is still bad though) but not as good in mirrors and vs demon hunters.
Not only this is a great article, but a much needed one!
I'm not used to get legend so early and I'm already bored. New system is so damn fast. I would like the season to reset right now to have something to do on the ladder again.
Thx for giving new things to test and keep me occupied until June.
Games are good and I enjoyed watching the parts I could watch. Okay I miss the "SPAM THIS TO HELP XXX OUT" but well, it's not like I can't live without twitch chat anyway....
People asked questions and I wanted to reply but I never managed to reply to the people I wanted. For example, if I click reply under Marega's post (1st one) my comment will appear (at least on my screen) as a reply to Bersak's post (last comment when I replied).
I tried to deleted and repost many times until I just gave up.

This doesn't really address the problem of post 50 level where you get 50 gold for 1350 exp, which means a quest is worth 37 gold at most.
Getting to 50 is super fast even if you don't play much, and then you're rewarded less for playing.
It's like Blizzard doesn't want me to play the game more than 2 hours a week and it's very weird.
Excellent article!

Never craft this card.
let's be real, if you spend 240 a year you don't give a damn about experience anyway. Battle pass is about being able to be f2p
It's a new brawl and it's really interesting actually, very cool idea.
(my take was to go full shaman totem, imho the combo were the hero power has the most synergy, and annoys your opponent the most)

Wow great news for him. Will he keep on streaming? He's one of my fav streamer for ranked, sad to see him go if he won't...

Congrats, keep the good job going and you'll celebrate many more anniversaries!

Why egg warrior and its variation is the strongest deck in the meta, if you nerf stuff you have to nerf this one too, else it would be even more OP.
As for the hunter, it is not exactly OP but the boar/porcupine decks are kinda dumb to say the least.
You're 1 patch late dude, DH is not dominant atm, Garrosh took over the leadership for a few weeks now...
All 3 big decks take a nerf, seems fair, especially since these nerves are weakening the stats but not the role of the card, so it seems sensible.
I don't even want to dust the nerfed cards cause I know they still have some use.
In the end we can hope for more tier 1 decks.
Ineteresting.

Oh OK I must have though I was on reddit or something.
Thx a lot for the answer, I will do as you said from now on.
