Stealer of Souls getting nerfed to 6 wasn't made due to the deck being too unbalanced or overpowered, it was nerfed because people complained about it too much.

      @ClarkHELLSCREAM there is literally nothing wrong with that.

        @JiminatorHS I'm not a fan of nerfing a deck because enough people complained on Reddit that they couldn't beat a deck. It feels like Standard is getting too many nerfs while Wild players are still sitting here wanting Warlock to be adjusted. Don't think nerfing Stealer was the right call imo

          @ClarkHELLSCREAM @JiminatorHS I'm not a fan of condescending takes like this. Hearthstone is a game. If people are not having fun playing a game, that's a problem. No reason to talk down to people who did not like playing against D6

            @SuperiorDavidHS @JiminatorHS In most games, there is usually going to be one person not having fun, the loser of the match. And esp at the lower ranks, less experienced, more casual players tend to not enjoy reevaluating their mistakes, so they keep queuing and losing. You can't have fun every match. (1/2)

              @SuperiorDavidHS @JiminatorHS But when these people who aren't trying to get better at the game are telling people that x card needs to be nerfed because they don't enjoy it and x person said it's broken, I tend to look for other opinions to referenced. (2/3)

                @SuperiorDavidHS @JiminatorHS In short, I want a deck to be nerfed because the deck is truly overpowered, not because someone opinion is so negative they refuse to try and counter it. It's one thing to complain about control being difficult to play, it's another when someone just complains and doesn't learn.

                  @ClarkHELLSCREAM @SuperiorDavidHS @JiminatorHS a deck being beatable and being healthy are not the same thing. sub 50% wr decks can absolutely warp the meta and poor play experiences make people play less even if they win. the team has stated how they evaluate nerfs and it's not the same as what you're saying here
