    These are my guesses regarding the upcoming nerfs - 

    Shaman -

    Corrupt the Waters will require more than six Battlecries to trigger.

    Galakrond will only summon a single 2/2, 4/4 or 8/8 with Rush.

    The new "Feral Spirit" will cost more, or the buff will be reduced.

    Corrupt Elementalist will cost more, or will only Invoke once.

    Everything Else -

    Faceless Corruptor will cost more.

    My guesses as to stuff that won't be nerfed, but should -

    The new "Patches" - I forget the name - will likely dominate the post-nerf meta if they don't pre-nerf it. I'm guessing they won't. It's already given Pirate Warrior a +11% win-rate buff in Wild, making it the top deck in the format, previously Tier 4. Hoard Pillager is also a problem in Wild - its effect is essentially the same as the new Pure Paladin dude, but without any deck-building restrictions . . . again, I don't think they'll nerf it, but I suspect the deck will dominate Standard if they don't pre-emptively address it, as HSReplays is currently tracking Pirate Warrior with over a 60% win-rate against non-Shaman decks.

    We'll see on Tuesday, I suppose . . .
