Thanks! While some buffs targets like N'Zoth, God of the Deep and Lilypad Lurker were not something I could predict, I think I should've seen Deathrattle DH and Control Warrior coming.
I mean, "unbelievably short sighted" is kind of uncalled-for: I too was expecting a nerf to Incanter's Flow and I too am sure the deck will still be very powerful (if not problematic), but burning to the ground the only archetype that Mage currently has is not the most clever decision either.
Just weaken it, wait for the mini-set to come and then, if it still needs to be addressed, hit it again.
I think what's more demoralizing is killing your opponent's Taelan Fordring and living with the knowledge that it's 100% guaranteed that they can (and will) burst you for 8 at any moment.
Shaman cards getting buffed is pretty much guaranteed - Alec said they'll give some love to "underperforming classes/archetypes".
As the Spice Lord, I'm really curious to see what the "spicy stuff" he refers to will be. My honest guess is that they're gonna rework a low-impact Legendary that's been very underwhelming and they're going to turn it into a quite powerful tool.
Anyways, I'm so excited about this balance patch - can't wait to see the notes!!
The problem with buffing Scabbs Cutterbutter by reducing his Cost is that he'll be playable with Kazakus, Golem Shaper, which is something I don't feel very excited about.
I think Scabbs just needs a little more time and more cards to be released.
Board state is thus: Opponent (of course it's paladin, is there any other class?) has two big Kazakus golems and a 3/4. I have a Kazakus and a big Kazakus golem with lifesteal. Opponent has had Steed secret up for most of the game; I've been very patiently playing around it and it's worked out well so far. The only other secret played this game has been an Oh My Yogg! Last turn, my opponent played a Secret. To play around Oh My Yogg! (because of course I have to play around a second copy), I target my big lifesteal with Psyche Split (What's the worst that can happen? I think). Well, the second Oh My Yogg! turns Psyche Split into Malevolent Strike, which (you guessed it) targets my big lifesteal instead of any of the other minions on board.
Related: Can anyone confirm whether Oh My Yogg! picks new targets for spells? I swear I've played other targeting spells that had their targets change post-Yogg (and often to my detriment).
Yes, it's random: it choose a random best target to piss you off. Stupid Secret, even worse than Counterspell.
If at least Duels had the option for you to use one of your recent starting decks instead of building a new one each time you start a run... it would make the mode much more accessible to those who don't want to scroll through their collection to look for the same cards over and over again.

Well, this means that next time I will do better.
Yeah, definitely a whoopsie by my side: sometimes cards have such similar names that nailing them each time can become difficult.
Thanks for pointing it out: it is now fixed ;)
Well, Spring Water was a broken card and I agree with their change.
Give them time: they are the devs, they have more data than all of us. Trust the process.

I don't know what you're talking about sir: I can't find where you got that quote from Kappa
No need to thank me! All the credit goes to who piloted it ;)
Hate this card with every ounce of my very self.
Twitch Drops let's goooo

This is quite a good suggestion - I second that!
If Mage warrants a nerf, then my (not that wild) guess is that Incanter's Flow is very likely going to get hit.

The nominations for the Neutral hits are definitely:
In my personal opinion, among the Neutrals we'll see Crabrider and Mankrik changed,

Definitely agree with you on this one - that achievement is sooo grindy!

Even more because there are very few content creators for Duels, so it's not that easy to look for lots of good deck lists.
Anyways, glad you enjoyed Goliath :)
I know there are members who love Duels content, so whenever I'm able to get my hands on some lists I try to publish them as fast as possible.
I'm so glad you appreciated my efforts - have some nice runs! <3
Chip has to be one of my favorite card arts ever.
Plus Zilean's emote has strong Spongebob vibes (yep, now you can't unsee it).
