Poor Millhouse! Last month our little Mage friend was thrown under the bus when HSReplay.net showcased the worst hero choices in Battlegrounds, and now Blizzard is out to get him too!
Hearthstone's Dean Ayala mentioned on Twitter this weekend that Millhouse is least powerful hero in all regions. The lowest average placement and the lowest winrate for top 4 and top 1 makes him a very bad pick right now. If you're considering playing with fire, you'll definitely burn yourself if you pick Millhouse.
Interestingly, Dean says he could use a buff which makes us think there's a good chance they're already trying to figure out a way to better support him. What change would you make to Millhouse to make him more viable?
Quote From Dean Ayala The least powerful hero in all regions at all levels is Millhouse Manastorm. He has the lowest average placement and lowest rate of top 4 and top 1. He could use a buff :).

Refresh is the only problem with him. Put refresh back to 1 mana, and he will be a lot better, but not overpowered. I really enjoy playing with him, but a few unlucky rolls and you're screwed because of that refresh cost.
A few suggestions. Either one will do.
- Start with 3 gold
- Create a minion that refreshes the bar when bought/sold
- Start at tier 2
At the moment, its really punishing if you get offed by minions available rng, this is more so with Millhouse.
The refresh cost is definitely holding him back. It's such a crucial feature.
make the refresh cost 1 gold
That would mean he gets minions for only 2 gold with virtually NO downside.
