It's crazy they word Lamplighter's comment by saying it "gave the deck more direct damage THAN WE'D LIKE" when, on first glance - and as evidenced by all Day 1 Ele Mage decks -, everyone saw its potential to OTK. It was a combo card from the get-go.
its still crazy that only 2 expansions ago that effect was on a 7 mana class legendary. sure skarr hits minions, but the face damage is the only reason its played
@@menialbeeand duplicating that card also needs to be stopped as well as another elemental legendary warriors love to bounce back to hand. That or steam cleaner in standard.
Just remember shockspitter, with only 3 different weapons, 6 out of 30 cards, hunter was able to hit EVERY SINGLE TURN with a weapon and kill turn 6 EVERY GAME, of course mage can do something like that too even if it's not possible to duplicate Lamplighters
@@lostgilgamesh Oh yeah warriors really have to think about which of their 10 board clears they have to use each turn. Control can be just as brainless as aggro.
@@michaeldeangelissssss yeah but he will be played way less tbh. Especially in standard except for maybe druid because they can now play infinite value without a care.
@@freshjori yeah but you can run two soulstealers. Only argument is that soulstealer is a double rune DK deck but yeah, DK is not using reno anymore unless he goes down to like 8 mana.
Blizzard actually listening to the community, im surprised Oh and i just realized, funnel cake being at 2 mana could actually be a buff, because now coldtooth mine can always draw bio project, and the cost doesn't matter when you have a card that says "your spells cost (1)"
To be fair they had to listen on something after they've been repeatedly not only begged to remove the pay to win mechanics from battlegrounds have decided to add more that no one asked for
Should've just made it destroy enemy minions and reduce it's cost back to 8 mana, or even 7. That way deathrattle heavy decks aren't disproportionately punished and Reno can still be played before it's too late. As they've admitted Highlander decks weren't power outliers, it's just Reno felt horrible to play against and disproportionately countered certain archetypes. Now they've just made it unplayable. They really made a mountain out of a mole hill, it's not hard to make the card playable but not horrible to play against. Just rework the horrible unfun aspect of his board clear + board space limitation and then adjust his mana/armor or even hero power accordingly after some testing.
Actually a huge nerf to Reska would be a health buff. I know it sounds counterintuitive but buffing Reska’s health would nerf the ability to properly trade into lower tier minions in order to steal higher value targets and would also make it more difficult to kill your own Reska utilizing cards like frost strike or the hero power from headless horseman. Unironically a health buff would be a huge nerf…
I feel like a better nerfed would’ve been to put them to 15 mana and have the discount only consider your minions. That way against board based decks they would struggle but would still be insane in the late game.
Tbh Reno is so necessary to compete in high level wild. one hand it was single handed the best bored clear ever printed. On the other hand he was the only viable bored clear we had in wild.
Re: Draenei - I've been having some mild success so far with a Highlander Draenei/Brann/Blackrock & Roll deck. The double BC is especially deadly with the various amount of buffs you can give Draenei, plus the "next D you play gives its attack to your hero this turn" - I've swung with a 28 attack with that before :D
Sad to see Elemental Shaman crumble too, my Wild build stood a chance but Lamplighter being gone will probably be too much. Guess I'll try out some of those Asteroid builds. Seabreeze Chalice is pretty dead for its previous uses, but only targeting minions can be really good, it's up to 3 mana deal 6 to minions, flexibly. If you get their board health down to 6 or lower it finishes it up, it's got some chance to still see play somewhere, keep in mind Druid always needs removal.
It felt super bad with the 1 minion limit on the next turn. The fact it cleared Eveything even locations and sargeras portal seemed pretty powerful. I'm happy with the nerf it got. Still should of went back down to 8 mana tho...
The only thing I want to see for Reno is a mana reduction. If it gets fully reverted when it rotates I will lose my mind. It's the type of Yugioh-esque design of "haha, you can't play the game" that's so unbelievably toxic. Wild might be too far gone anyway, but I don't care. It's the format I used to play, and it's precisely because of cards like Reno I just quit. I still want a Frozen Throne Twist format in hopes the OG Hero cards get well deserved buffs...
Threads and Reska nerfs do nothing.. Lets not pretend that the meta will be different with reborn Zilliax, lifesteal Zilliax, abundance of full board clears, uninteractive removal of Reska/Yogg/priest titan
@@Ttangko_and they say Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel is trash, but at least in that game you can interact with your opponent! If your deck is well built and good for climbing you can even play over your opponent's interruptions!
@@pachekaoo But Yogg can flexibly deal with various board states, even gaining you a valuable piece or filling up your hand, And it is a no-brainer include. Reno requires you to change the way you build your deck.
Oooooh, it just dawned on me that the rouge spell now discounting could be nuts with Sonya. The base spell already synergized but now the 2 cost starship pieces like biopod can get discounted then copied by Sonya!
"We've decided to finally nerf all of the problematic cards that consistently OTK people from hand which we knew were going to be problematic but released anyway. Except for Sonya, of course!"
This is the type of patch I'm looking for! I wish most the patches would be like this, a lot of nerfing overtuned cards, buffing ones that underperform in fun archetypes. Most the fun in Hearthstone for me is trying out new and exciting stuff after a new patch hits, and I know for a fact I'm going to enjoy this one!
Highlander got murdered by the nerf. They didn’t need to remove the 1 drop minion effect. I was disappointed in Yrel trade off as Yrel is a legendary and the 4/3 really didn’t make an impact.
I feel Starship Rogue going to fly up high with winrate now. Thanks to change to Schematic you can cheat out up to 4 starship pieces for 7 mana with Sonya (play schematic, get another for 0 mana, discover piece that cost 2, now it cost 1, play it - get another for 0 mana, repeat with 0 mana schematic). That means you can play 2 Biopods, Guiding figure and proc at least once its deathrattle in same turn.
I for one hate Reno (dusted a gold one I got from packs) and yet this seems overly harsh to me. I've been wondering for months why they don't just e.g. remove the board space restriction. Completely gutting him like this seems excessive.
I feel like they could still have had it so there's an 'unwritten' rule with Reno that he removes Dormant minions as well, because it says "Remove all enemy minions from the game"; that would also enable Starships to remain as I imagine they are not considered minions while 'being built.'
You can use the 4 drop legendary to setup holy wrath. You can still guarantee the 100 damage, but drawing a legendary is much harder than drawing a spell.
Wow the death of Lamplighter! I'm very thankful! The number of times I thought I'd taken back the game only to lose to 17 or 19 damage from double Lamplighter in one turn...
Ethereal Oracle was an obvious problem that didn't get nerfed. Pop-up book creating two bodies for Nostalgia Shaman is also a problem, though I didn't expect it to be on their radar as much. The Threads nerf was a good spot by Blizzard that was a pleasant surprise. EDIT: And freaking Malachar or whatever it's called in DK needs a nerf. Singlehandedly steals games.
I'm not sure the yrel buff will be enough tbh, the real problem with the libram deck is that the reduction doesn't get online fast enough and you're forced to play overcosted cards way too often. I was really hoping they'd reduce the mana cost of that terrible 4/2 or give yrel a reduction effect.
From my experience (Just playing Librams in the Tavern Brawl because of the "Play 125 Paladino cards" weekly)... Yrel isn't even that good. Like, the 3 old Librams just don't do enough anymore. The power comes from getting the repeatable +3/+3 buff and the 3x 3/3 minions to 0 but these require getting most (Or all in the case of the minions) of the discount cards played... Whereby the 4/2 minion still sucks. The weapon is faster which is nice, but that minion is still garbo.
I didn't know malted magma was in need of a nerf for the chip damage but I'm glad it's still 2 mana for my play style. Threads definitely needed this nerf and DK is my favorite class.
It’s always interesting that when reviewing new sets, Zeddy and others say “wow this crap is so weak it’ll never see play” and then turn around (usually in the next video) and be like “wow power creep sucks so bad they should bring the power level down. Aside from needing a bunch of stuff at once (which is kinda what they’re doing here, and I’m okay with) is that it’ll take a few “mid” sets to roll out, and the powerful sets to rotate, to feel like the game is in a good state.
I'm not so sure that the Reska nerf is as minor as you think. It still discounts really fast and weirdly the threads nerf makes it not come down as soon. Big difference between 0 and 2-5 mana in those instances where you haven't had those minions die
The biggest disappointment is how they really didn’t Nerf Reska at all to be honest, that’s one of the biggest problem cards, and should be nerfed into the ground tbh. Cards like that being able to flip everything on one turn or just by playing that one card should not exist. It takes away from the skill of hearthstone.
Good changes but order in a court change is such a temporary bandaid fix, they will add another huge cost minion and we will have to go through this shit again.
It's making me angry they not nerfed saurun broken frustrating otk and they just killed Reno what about stupid elemental mage otk lamp lighter isn't important
Okay i know that hearthstone needed to reduce the powerlevel of cards but this feels like early hearthstone nerf design. As in butchering the card. The goal was to weaken it to be in line with tgdb not make them nearly unplayable.😅 Well at least some still survived I think
I am using Malted Magma in my pirate shaman in Wild mostly for AOE. Yeah, occasionally it works as a reach, but not a huge hit as i was expecting (going to 3).
Honestly, if Quasar had gotten the "not less than one" treatment, i actually think it would be a great card. We'd probably see the first "big rogue" deck ever.
Wow, asteroid Shaman is going to love the new meta, if people are really trying to play Starships and more slower decks. Especially because none of it's pieces were nerfed. Ethereal Oracle does so much for 3 mana and Shaman has some really good cheap Spells to combine with this card. The variant I play doesn't care for late game combo's with Shudderblock. Early, fight for tempo, all the asteroid cards and Incindius and loads of Spell damage and draw spell(s). With the spell damage being so easy and plentiful it's actually not that hard to push a lot of damage and clear their board, over and over again, or just go face whe they try to control your board. But maybe I am still too low ELO, diamond five in EU now, to really see what it's potentially power level is.
So considering this last nerf to Reno what is the point then to Reno decks when the payoff isn’t worth it? Also do we get dust refunds for other highlander cards?
I'm assuming they'll revert reno once it goes to wild. Even at 8 mana it was good for wild because it gave reno decks a chance and i'd rather have reno decks at the top than aggro/combo
All the decks I've been making for dark beyond just got a little more viable, especially reno nerf. At first I thought maybe reno should be cheaper now, but it still clears your board without procing deathrattles and that's still worth 10 in my opinion
It sucks that they keep not doing choose one cards, makes Runes seem like a working mechanic I wanted them to drop the Refresh and give us Choose One, Choose One, Choose One so we can actually use the Choose One synergy in standard
If they were going to do this to Reno then why not put him back to eight mana??? Unbelievably foolish choice to gut him in this way AND leave him at ten mana, ugh.
If Reno is that frustrating to play against they should also rework every single "For the rest of the game" card aswell at this point, Brann, Odyn, Helya, Kil'jaeden etc. and now that Reno is nerfed Sergares and Rheastrasza. These are frustratig cards with literall 0 counterplay except being lucky with a Dirty Rat.
@@FoldUpJohn my point is not how good each of those cards are but that there is literally no way to interact with their effect. While it makes plagues playable, it is very frustrating to play against it. Which is why they apparently nerfed Reno. Brann is straight up unfair, Odynn just rewards you for mindlessly bulking up, Kil'jaden is an abomination of a card as he not only removes fatigue for one player, the demons also scale infinitly just like Jade idols just in an even more dumber way. If they want these kind of effects in their game they should also either give us anything at all to combat it or straight up change those cards. Before Reno came out Sergares was the most frustrating card in the meta as the warlock just got free taunt minions every turn making it almost impossible for board based decks to win after he got played. Renos effect was healthy for the game as it allowed you to take the bullet, make your deck worse by playing Highlander and gaining the ability to shut down Sergares and Rheastrasza
Cards like Quasar should not be printed: If the options are 1) It is very broken and non-interactive - not a good card for the game. 2) Or it is unplayable and bad, in which case it is bad as well. Either you have a useless filler card or you print a problem card. That means no reason to print it.
I actually think the Scrounging Shipwright is a massive nerf. It was a good choice to hit with cubicle and I had a wild deck with a bunch of deathrattle synergies
After several matches of the flavorful Sargeras + Kil'Jaeden deck after the nerf, I'm having a blast. Might not be top tier, but damn is it fun and flavorful to blast demons left and right with warlock again.
i mean you can disenchant every nerfed card in this patch since they give you 100% dust back. Just type refund in the search tab in collection and the game shows you all nerfed cards and trash them out of existence. And you can craft them back later at any time if you feel so.
and yes you can safely disenchant Reno. I should also note if you disenchant a GOLDEN NERFED card, you get 200% dust of the cards' original value.This means if u have a golden Reno he gives 3200 dust back which is huge. Have fun!
I don't even care about Reno's board limit. The best feature of it was that it removed everything. Now it's straight up unplayable. Needs to be at least 8 mana again to see very little use, anything higher and it's gone forever.
seeing a lot of people complaining about the nerfs being too much and simultaneously seeing that people that say the nerfs aren't enough. Surely the people in these two camps should come to the synthesis that they both got what they wanted, right? Sure, Reno is worse, but it's not like the decks you were bad against got much better, now it's just time to adapt. I imagine this is along the lines of what the devs were thinking, but I do wonder if this will actually change the consensus people have about this meta, and the expansion by extension of that.
Nice. Just came back to the game, got the loaner deck for warrior to finally have Reno, and nerfed literally 2 days later to where I can't clear locations or limit 1 slot on their board. Screw this game again.
The conniving conman and the sea shill change, what does that actually do? Doesnt it basically do the same thing. Play the last card from a non-rogue class, and play the last card from another class sound like the same thing to me
For Paladin and Mage, it won't affect their class cards. It will only affect the Rogue cards they put into their deck via Tourist or any cards they randomly generate from other classes.
@tarille1043 ok but what does that change tho? If you burgle lets say a mage card in a game playing rogue. Wont conman just do the say thing? Like what actually has changed
They can’t be used in Mage and Paladin to spam/discount Tsunami and Amitus (like Zeddy mentioned) because those aren’t cards from other classes. Essentially: “another class” refers to classes other than the one you’re playing. The only way to change that mid-game is with hero cards from other classes (like the ones generated by Rogue’s tourist legendary).
Chalice was good burn/combo option for sif mage (yeah I know sif mage doesnt see too much play, im saying it from experience of using it) With that nerf this deck has less damage cards to kill your opponents with but I think it can be still usable as nice early minion removal Im bit sad about that nerf (fuck druid tax) but maybe I'll find my way to play it
I get they want to decrease the power level of everything to let other archetypes thrive, new ones included, and they are preemptively nerfing archetypes to compensate for the power vacuum being created, but for mystery egg I think its very slow at 4 mana as is. So this nerf seems really harsh to me. But maybe with everything else nerfed, it won't be so bad. But I think egg is dead as my gut reaction.

Good changes but order in a court change is such a temporary bandaid fix, they will add another huge cost minion and we will have to go through this shit again.
Also we lost the only counter to Sargeras portal, even if symphony has been nerfed it was terrifying a year ago :3
Goodbye reno,you made highlander fun again,and now in good fashion,you got murdered
It's making me angry they not nerfed saurun broken frustrating otk and they just killed Reno what about stupid elemental mage otk lamp lighter isn't important
Fun again? hahahahaha
@@supremazach I'm pretty sure it's undeniable that people playing highlander reno were having fun
@@Armaniran193 Yeah they pretty much just want Reno to disappear entirely
@@supremazach fun to play with not against
Okay i know that hearthstone needed to reduce the powerlevel of cards but this feels like early hearthstone nerf design. As in butchering the card. The goal was to weaken it to be in line with tgdb not make them nearly unplayable.😅 Well at least some still survived I think
Man they really killed Lamplighter.. I just started playing Elemental Shaman xD
I am using Malted Magma in my pirate shaman in Wild mostly for AOE. Yeah, occasionally it works as a reach, but not a huge hit as i was expecting (going to 3).
Honestly, if Quasar had gotten the "not less than one" treatment, i actually think it would be a great card. We'd probably see the first "big rogue" deck ever.
The problem is cards that put 3 to 5 creatures on the board at once. None of those cards were nerfed.
Wow, asteroid Shaman is going to love the new meta, if people are really trying to play Starships and more slower decks. Especially because none of it's pieces were nerfed.
Ethereal Oracle does so much for 3 mana and Shaman has some really good cheap Spells to combine with this card.
The variant I play doesn't care for late game combo's with Shudderblock.
Early, fight for tempo, all the asteroid cards and Incindius and loads of Spell damage and draw spell(s).
With the spell damage being so easy and plentiful it's actually not that hard to push a lot of damage and clear their board, over and over again, or just go face whe they try to control your board.
But maybe I am still too low ELO, diamond five in EU now, to really see what it's potentially power level is.
I see Seabreeze Chalice as a buff. Finally will I stop worrying that it hits face instead of killing that 1 health minion.
Can we just point out how crazy it is that Zeddy has 4000 wins in 2 years. That's pretty much 10 wins with the class every single day.
So considering this last nerf to Reno what is the point then to Reno decks when the payoff isn’t worth it? Also do we get dust refunds for other highlander cards?
Wow, i actually didn't think they have the balls to actually murder lamplighter
I don’t even play hearthstone anymore. But Reno leaving your opponent with no minions and 1 board slot sounds just straight up unfair.
Reska is still going to be a problem. DK’s can still get this to 0 mana and discover multiple copies in a game.
I'm assuming they'll revert reno once it goes to wild. Even at 8 mana it was good for wild because it gave reno decks a chance and i'd rather have reno decks at the top than aggro/combo
All the decks I've been making for dark beyond just got a little more viable, especially reno nerf. At first I thought maybe reno should be cheaper now, but it still clears your board without procing deathrattles and that's still worth 10 in my opinion
What is the diff bet non rogue cards and other classes?
It sucks that they keep not doing choose one cards, makes Runes seem like a working mechanic
I wanted them to drop the Refresh and give us Choose One, Choose One, Choose One so we can actually use the Choose One synergy in standard
The exodar is now the same cost as Tess for rouge so robocaller draw is a bit worse for me with no 8 cost draw option.
Zeddy, there's nothing in the description where the patch notes links should be, we need a dust refund for this bug.
If they were going to do this to Reno then why not put him back to eight mana??? Unbelievably foolish choice to gut him in this way AND leave him at ten mana, ugh.
No it's not foolish
15:20 yes, you can...with Polkelt...4 times stronger than Shirvala bloodtrail
No patch notes in description
LOL at the displacer
That did nothing for the card, they just want to say "hey I buffed it, what do you want from me?"
If Reno is that frustrating to play against they should also rework every single "For the rest of the game" card aswell at this point, Brann, Odyn, Helya, Kil'jaeden etc. and now that Reno is nerfed Sergares and Rheastrasza. These are frustratig cards with literall 0 counterplay except being lucky with a Dirty Rat.
the truth
None of them are nearly as frustrating as reno
Yeah. True. That fucking warlock card is so annoying, I swear.
Helya probably doesn't belong on the list and it's the only thing that makes plague decks remotely worth it otherwise mostly agree
@@FoldUpJohn my point is not how good each of those cards are but that there is literally no way to interact with their effect. While it makes plagues playable, it is very frustrating to play against it. Which is why they apparently nerfed Reno. Brann is straight up unfair, Odynn just rewards you for mindlessly bulking up, Kil'jaden is an abomination of a card as he not only removes fatigue for one player, the demons also scale infinitly just like Jade idols just in an even more dumber way. If they want these kind of effects in their game they should also either give us anything at all to combat it or straight up change those cards.
Before Reno came out Sergares was the most frustrating card in the meta as the warlock just got free taunt minions every turn making it almost impossible for board based decks to win after he got played. Renos effect was healthy for the game as it allowed you to take the bullet, make your deck worse by playing Highlander and gaining the ability to shut down Sergares and Rheastrasza
Cards like Quasar should not be printed:
If the options are 1) It is very broken and non-interactive - not a good card for the game.
2) Or it is unplayable and bad, in which case it is bad as well.
Either you have a useless filler card or you print a problem card.
That means no reason to print it.
R I P pepsi paladin
I'm so glad they finally understood that they have to decrease the power level and to kill the complete broken shit that feels terrible to face !
I actually think the Scrounging Shipwright is a massive nerf. It was a good choice to hit with cubicle and I had a wild deck with a bunch of deathrattle synergies
Spicy. . .the spirit of Firebat is still alive. . . What is he up to in the world these days?
I just want zileax to get the Genn and Baku treatment and rotate early. I'm tired of zil every game.
Call this what it is: the best balance patch Hearthstone has ever released.
The Reno now gone. There is not way to remove the portal from Sargareas
After several matches of the flavorful Sargeras + Kil'Jaeden deck after the nerf, I'm having a blast.
Might not be top tier, but damn is it fun and flavorful to blast demons left and right with warlock again.
Purified dragon nest remains on board as well.
Curious to see what happens to Starships 🌸
Yayyy I can’t wait for the 30 minute games of “let’s get my armor over 100 with my starship piece” so funnnn.
I'm excited about chalice for mage, so often I need it to hit a minion and it goes face
So should we disenchant reno? Which cards are worth disenchant?
i mean you can disenchant every nerfed card in this patch since they give you 100% dust back. Just type refund in the search tab in collection and the game shows you all nerfed cards and trash them out of existence. And you can craft them back later at any time if you feel so.
and yes you can safely disenchant Reno. I should also note if you disenchant a GOLDEN NERFED card, you get 200% dust of the cards' original value.This means if u have a golden Reno he gives 3200 dust back which is huge. Have fun!
I don't even care about Reno's board limit. The best feature of it was that it removed everything. Now it's straight up unplayable. Needs to be at least 8 mana again to see very little use, anything higher and it's gone forever.
Zeddy the new face of hearthstone after Rarran poster boy pissed them off
You forgot to put the link for the patch note
I would like to thank Reynad for these changes. I think The Bazaar got them nervous.
I love all changes. Will miss a little Reno effect of 1 minion, yes it was OP but was very climatic. But still prefer playable over climatic.
seeing a lot of people complaining about the nerfs being too much and simultaneously seeing that people that say the nerfs aren't enough. Surely the people in these two camps should come to the synthesis that they both got what they wanted, right? Sure, Reno is worse, but it's not like the decks you were bad against got much better, now it's just time to adapt.
I imagine this is along the lines of what the devs were thinking, but I do wonder if this will actually change the consensus people have about this meta, and the expansion by extension of that.
Seabreeze chalice would have been better as "deal 1 damage to 2 random enemies" in my opinion
Nice. Just came back to the game, got the loaner deck for warrior to finally have Reno, and nerfed literally 2 days later to where I can't clear locations or limit 1 slot on their board. Screw this game again.
The conniving conman and the sea shill change, what does that actually do? Doesnt it basically do the same thing. Play the last card from a non-rogue class, and play the last card from another class sound like the same thing to me
For Paladin and Mage, it won't affect their class cards. It will only affect the Rogue cards they put into their deck via Tourist or any cards they randomly generate from other classes.
@tarille1043 ok but what does that change tho? If you burgle lets say a mage card in a game playing rogue. Wont conman just do the say thing? Like what actually has changed
They can’t be used in Mage and Paladin to spam/discount Tsunami and Amitus (like Zeddy mentioned) because those aren’t cards from other classes.
Essentially: “another class” refers to classes other than the one you’re playing. The only way to change that mid-game is with hero cards from other classes (like the ones generated by Rogue’s tourist legendary).
@@CovetedPeacock ohhhhhh ok i get it now
Paladins and mage tourists.
Zeddy Thanks so much for this update on all those cards
Looks like they forgot about Yogg as well… starships will still be stolen left and right and was a way bigger problem than Reno ever was
They should have made Reno 9 mana at least to compensate.
As the only Paladin Highlander player this Reno nerf is sad to see but understandable at best
Chalice was good burn/combo option for sif mage
(yeah I know sif mage doesnt see too much play, im saying it from experience of using it)
With that nerf this deck has less damage cards to kill your opponents with but I think it can be still usable as nice early minion removal
Im bit sad about that nerf (fuck druid tax) but maybe I'll find my way to play it
I get they want to decrease the power level of everything to let other archetypes thrive, new ones included, and they are preemptively nerfing archetypes to compensate for the power vacuum being created, but for mystery egg I think its very slow at 4 mana as is. So this nerf seems really harsh to me. But maybe with everything else nerfed, it won't be so bad. But I think egg is dead as my gut reaction.
