Alright, fine. We'll buff Tavish. And nerf a whole bunch of stuff, but mostly we'll buff Tavish. It's what the people want. https://t.co/kaAPUDlGIG

      @Songbird_HS Was there any consideration in changing how the Hunter Quest works so it can better synergise with Tavish? Sorta like how the Wildfire buff also now works with Dawngrasp.

        @Paraducks_GB Hmm yeah that's a good point. Making the hero power cost reduction persistent. @GallonHS have we discussed this at all? I don't remember.

          @Songbird_HS @Paraducks_GB Something we can definitely revisit, although the intent here is clearly focused on it being used with the base hunter hero power.

      @Songbird_HS good stuff, a bit surprised that the Scabbs hero card dodged the nerf bat this round but these are already a lot of changes :)

        @FauxIDs We discussed Scabbs and Tamsin, but we want to let the power level of the hero cards ride for a bit. That's ultimately why we chose to nerf Mithril Rod over Tamsin. We'll revisit things in the new year if we need to.

      @Songbird_HS please, please, please never listen what people say/want. people will always complain. do your tests, check your numbers and decide all by yourself

        @dominedi72 Lol nah I was just memeing. We wanted to bring some of the hero cards in line with the more powerful ones, so we buffed Tavish and Dawngrasp. They needed a bit of a boost.

      @Songbird_HS Hi Cora, did you discuss any Wild changes this time? We'd just like confirmation we're on the radar please!

      • Cora

        @en_djinn We did! We waffled a bit on a few different changes and we're going to revisit things in the new year if the standard changes we made don't affect wild enough. Warlock and Mage in particular are on our radar.

          @Songbird_HS @en_djinn Can you keep an eye on Hunter too 🥺Questline is not good for the format. 0 mana HP that deals 3 damage + repeatable is never a good thing. Raza / Anduin is not something to be reprinted, especially in a class whose Hero Power upgrades to deal 3

            @KuriennoHS @Songbird_HS This, Warlock being watched also confuses me.

              @en_djinn @KuriennoHS I mean, we're watching everything. We discuss the Hunter quest internally quite often. It limits design space to an extent which we don't love.

        • Cora
          Posted 3 years, 8 months ago (Source)
          @en_djinn I'll clarify, everything is on our radar. Warlock and Mage are consistently powerful. Hunter/Shaman/Warrior are very good right now as well. We'll see if the balance changes skew numbers at all, and if they don't we'll reassess.

        • reagensHS
          Posted 3 years, 8 months ago (Source)
          @Songbird_HS @en_djinn Mage for balance reasons or rather in regards to the ongoing complaints about cheating?

          • Cora
            Posted 3 years, 8 months ago (Source)
            @reagensHS @en_djinn I guess both. We don't comment on cheating often because it tends to put more eyes on the methods and we don't want to essentially inform people that it's possible. We usually design to avoid these issues, but that's a bandaid. Idk. It's a nuanced issue.

      @Songbird_HS this nerf won't change the meta one bit mark my words

        @Melascula10C Ok. Then we'll keep adjusting things. :)

      @Songbird_HS Now i'm effectively tempted to craft him. He's a good middle ground between Steady Shot and Zombeast.

      • Cora

        @RavenSunHS He's really fun imo. I think he'll be playable in Hunter for a while.

      @Songbird_HS why did 4→3 create orphan text https://t.co/9i9YGOeuJS

        @SableSableSucks Ew that textbox is gross. We'll fix it.
