21.0.3 Balance Update - Eight Constructed Card Nerfs + Five Battlegrounds Hero Buffs - Coming Tomorrow (August 17)
Nice, great changes overall. As expected, they didn’t nerf any quests. Not sure about the shaman nerf, is Granite Forgeborn that oppressive? Feels like there are like 10 cards more powerful in the deck haha
Battleground Battlemaster
Oof I even forgot about conviction. Leave 2 silverhand recruits alive against paladin on turn 5 and you take 16 to the face. Absolutely bonkers.
Battleground Battlemaster
This card is insane. You no longer can afford to leave a minion alive against aggro. And I don’t even want to imagine how broken it can be in wild.
Defend the Dwarven District
Might be the strongest quest, and possibly the easiest to complete. Between wound prey, piercing shot, quick shot, bola shot and arcane shot (stretching into scrap shot, overwhelm and explosive trap) this should be complete on turn 7-8 on average.
Enthusiastic Banker
Will be removed from the deck after the first devolving missiles.
Sketchy Information
Good with ticketmaster too, but overall the support from the year of the phoenix is very weak. Probably will need a couple more expansions to be good.
Oracle of Elune
Turn 1: lightning bloom – lightning bloom – oracle of elune – razormane battleguard – coin – greybough has got to be the strongest turn 1 in standard ever.

At least shaman got the long stick ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Perpetual Flame
I think it does, yeah. Pretty cool combo, although it overloads you a lot.

What? The priest one is the worst.

Hunter and rogue are usually cheaper decks. Try to craft some without legendaries before building an expensive one.

Nerfs: demon seed, breath of the nathrezin, backfire, perpetual flame, brute
Rework: Ilucia (I’d guess they’d make her battlecry activate only if she’s the first card played on your turn)
Ban: demon seed
Buffs: remote control golem, saurfang, outrider’s axe, antonidas, leatherworking kit, selective breeder, maxima
I’m guessing they won’t nerf the demon seed, which I think it’s a huge mistake alongside the mage also dodging the nerfs. The patch won’t do anything but improve Paladin’s, Hunter’s and Mage’s already good winrates.
