The patch did nothing :/

Yep, read the title.

I’m at diamond 9 trying to hit 5 for the free pack and every other game is still either a Blood or Frost DK. Blizzard needs to bite the bullet at this point and just restrict discovery from other rune cards as well. I find it ridiculous that Blood DK, the control deck, can just start digging through Frost and Unholy rune cards for more damage/board whenever it needs it. Like what’s the point of the rune system at this point if all of the runes can just bypass their rune identities and weaknesses through Discover.

I really hope it gets better past day 1 at least, but I don’t see any new decks at all despite all of the buffs given to so many archetypes. DK needs to be brought more in line, and cards like Marrow Manipulator and The Scourge needs to get nerfed/reverted because a 5/5 with Pyroblast is just absurd, and a 7 mana spell which just completely flips the board is not okay either.

Like, good luck beating that with Thori’belor (I love this change though, thanks Blizz for making it what it should have been from the start).

    Cant say that I had the same experience. Haven't seen a single DK all day, and Ive been pushing more than my usual quota of hearthstone games today. Lots of warriors, doubtless trying out the riffs and discovering after 3 games as I have, that they're all still shit.

    If youre trying to climb quickly up, you can try secret coc rogue or face midrange hunter which can absolutely win against blood DK, though its more a 50-50 against frost DK. Should easily beat all the warrior tryhards. Might be a bit testy with naga mages or implocks.
