@paulsworkintwit Hmm, are you colorblind (if you don’t mind me asking)? We usually do the arrows to help with that part, but this time they were all one direction (nerfs), so we cut it, but I realize now that was probably a mistake.

@hsdecktech Yeah personally I don't like the pog previews. Would rather just wait for the list of changes

@ForrestBates This is pretty strictly bonus on top of those, right? Or do you miss the speculation period for balance changes?

ForrestBates

Posted 2 years, 8 months ago (Source)

@hsdecktech Im not one for the speculation either. Let us know changes are coming and when.

@ForrestBates But that’s what this is. The alternative to this is that we just do the same tweet without an image and y’all wait j til Thursday for the list. There’s no version where the list was coming today.

@hsdecktech Heroes and buddies are getting nerfed

hsdecktech

Posted 2 years, 8 months ago (Source)

@pireputo Would you consider a buddy nerf to hit both the “hero and buddy” or would you read this to mean like a buddy nerf AND a hero power nerf?

@hsdecktech I assume nerfs to those listed BG's buddies, but I do find it sorta unclear on the whole. I can tell there's a red outline - barely, but it's not intuitively clear it's a nerf imo. Also, I don't really remember specific buddies, so I wonder if that could be clearer too?

@neo999955 That second point is why the heroes are there, as a reminder about what buddy goes to what hero. Did that not help? What would?

Thanks for all the comments, y’all, lots of good stuff here. I think most of you got what we meant, but there was definitely more confusion than we’d like. To make it clear: this was intended to mean those Buddies are getting nerfed. Heroes just there for context.
