Blizzard just posted images teasing the upcoming balance update for both Standard and Battlegrounds! The patch is pretty substantial and it should have a solid impact on meta in both formats.
This is just a teaser – we don’t know how those cards are getting changed until full patch notes are released! The patch is currently scheduled for Thursday. Given that the patch notes usually drop an hour before the actual update, I would expect them at around 9 AM / 18:00 CET tomorrow, and then the update itself at 10 AM PT / 19:00 CET. Of course, things don’t always release according to the usual schedule, so it’s just an estimation.
For now, check out a full list of affected cards.
Standard
Nerfs
Buffs
For buffs we don’t have exact cards, only affected classes:
- Demon Hunter
- Mage
- Priest
- Shaman
Battlegrounds
Battlegrounds is also getting a pretty hefty update with 4 buffs, 5 nerfs, 1 neutral/rework and 4 card pool changes.
