Sorry if I sounded too salty about getting Hogger. I think he is average. I just wanted some of the other legendaries I need.. Class legendaries (anthonidas?), dragons! (malygos?) and then I get one of the more useless ones..

Harrison Jones is great, but as you say guys say too slow.

Are they nerfing small time B? To what?

My last Legendary was Gruul, which is even worse than yours

And we are only speculating, they just said that they are keeping an eye on the cards (Patches and Buccaneer). And that they are probably not making so strong 1-drops in the future...

Would a 1 mana 2/2 be such a downgrade?
The druid raven is 1 mana 2/2 - which is not being played due to it being beast.

@Emil
Hogger is avarage at most, but I always liked the gnoll plus maybe he would fit into my Taunt Warrior deck...

Imo +1 atk for STB would be the perfect nerf. He wouldn't loose that much, and probably still would be played I think (Raven has seen quite a lot of play, but currently Beast Druid is not popular so...).

The problem lies with Pirate Warrior deck itself. It already was agressive before MSoG, but by giving it STB and Patches they gave the deck archetype a small (but still meaningful) boost that makes it able to 'outdamage' other decks before they start to take momentum. Rarely will you win with PW if you take too long to finish your opponent, only case being if you're lucky enough and have a finsher that is.

I think Abusive Seargent is a good nerf example. They made the card less impactful, but it's still played...  

EDIT: Wait, what!? Golden Rares are worth 800 dust at full price!? Blizzard please nerf STB

Thanks Blizzard! http://www.hearthpwn.com/news/2239-small-time-buccaneer-spirit-claws-are-being-nerfed

Though I think they could've handled STB nerf a bit differently. I could be wrong, but it might actually kill the card. It's too easy to remove now. A +1 instead of +2 ATK nerf would be better imo...

Hurray for the Spirit Claw nerf! 1 mana weapon doing 9 damage was disgusting. STB nerf is also good, with 1 health it can be removed and maybe no more turn 4 lethals? A lil different pace to the game. Maybe I'm biased because I am so utterly sick of losing to this card, but I don't mind this nerf.

I am confused - I need someone to clarify to me how 1 hp is a better nerf then just +1 instead of +2 attack?!

I think this is too big a nerf for Small time Buc. ??

Spirit Claws is fine I guess. I have not seen it that much at my rankings.

Like I said, I think this nerf hits the card too much. So much that it won't see play imo, but on the other hand why am I even bothering with this, I don't even play Pirate Warrior that much...

Claw nerf is a step in right direction to make Shaman less dominant in the meta, but there's still a lot to do. Maybe the incoming rotation will be sufficient?

If Blizzard has finally learned their lesson they will stop producing OP 1-drops and will finally shift to control in the upcoming Un'goro. This (potential) expansion simply reeks of big fat control (Dinosaur) minions...

You bother because every time the HS team nerfs something it shows their thoughts on balance and what works and what does not. This is key information for the future.

Please more charge minions, but less OP ones!

Year of the Mammoth

Have you read it?!

So many news!
Quote:

The Rundown
- Blackrock Mountain, The Grand Tournament, and The League of Explorers all rotate out of Standard with The Year of the Mammoth.
- Six cards from Classic are being moved to Wild-only.
- You cannot dust these cards, but if you own them, Blizzard is going to just give you Arcane Dust.
- You will only get the dust for the copies you have that can be included in a deck. If you have 3 Azure Drakes, disenchant one today.
- We will not see an Adventure this year. Instead, we will see three ~130 card expansions!
The second and third expansions will feature a playable story, like an adventure.
- Cards will still only come from card packs.
- A Heroic Tavern Brawl will be going live sometime after the first expansion releases, using the Wild format.
- Blizzard is going to work on doing more Wild tournaments.
- Daily Login Rewards! At least for the start of the new rotation. Includes Dust, Gold, Expansion Packs, and "a few other surprises".
Rogues are getting Maeiv Shadowsong, a new hero! Win 10 games of Hearthstone in Standard when the rotation occurs and she's all yours.
- We will see some Deathrattle build-arounds in upcoming sets.



First of all I think there are more good news than bad news in this update.
3 Expansions pr year. Sounds ambitious. But awesome.
Removing Azure Drake, Sylvanas and Ragnoras was a blow to my heart.

God.. Damn the year of the Mammoth is so insane.

wait, so if I craft now golden ragnaros I will later get 3200 dust back?

Let me do some quick math here.
I will get 1600 for my rag

If I craft a golden one I spend 3200 and gain 3200 so a net gain of 0
and I have to disenchant the old rag for 400

screw this, I aint craftin nuttin'

Like people said this 'Hall of Fame' dust refund is actually useful if you want golden versions of those cards for keeps.

So in my case I can do nothing. Free dust is always welcome though.

Aside from that a lot of news.

I like adventures, but I dislike the fact that I need to 'freeze' my gold spending for a month each time to get enough for the wings. It will be harder to complete card collections but on the other hand I have not got that much to craft atm to begin with so that's refreshing.

The expansion schedule screen pretty much confirms the tropical prehistoric jungle theme (Un'goro crater), but I'm also interested in the second one, which appears to be magic themed (Kharazahn bis?).

I wonder about the login rewards, how will they actually work.

Lastly nice thing about Maiev. She seemed like a natural choice for an alternative Rouge hero since day one, and she will be easy to get too...

Say what you will, but for a f2p game, Blizzard is really giving us a lot free stuff.

Haha nice to see you realize this finally mr. blob, I just can't think of another f2p game that is of this quality. But for those who now start the game, they almost have to spend money. But I can't say I am sorry, because I have spent so so so so many hours to get to this point with my collection.

I have my gripes with the game but spending money is not one of them ^^

Hmm, did I ever criticize Blizzard for how it handles the f2p model? I'm asking seriously, I can't remember at this point...

Most of my issues with this game came from poor anger management reasons, or rather the lack off it in general

But how do you feel about Azure Drake leaving standard?!

I like the new single player stories. I feel like they are great additions to the game. Though I feel like an adventure in the style of LoE would still be awesome.

The next three expansions:
Un'Goro
Magic themed - Dalaran?
The third one has a money bag on it - I cannot figure out if that is a clue or not.

Nah not directly iirc but you were bummed out that you can't get a full collection as a f2p at some point

Azure Drake leaving is great news, it is just in every deck. Actually I approve of all the cards that are leaving. But especially good riddance to Conceal! I have hated this card so long

I got stuck with a warrior quest. I have no warrior deck. I have no good warrior cards!

So I looked at pirate warrior. Made a deck without patches and incl. Captain Greenskin and Skycap'n Kragg! I hope everyone will be surpriced to see that guy being played!
