First off, I think the recent nerfs and buffs were pretty good overall. Hollow Hound should probably have lost attack instead of health, but whatever.
Crusader Aura: This card feels a bit OP to me. Yes, it needs some set up and only lasts 3 turns, but the amount of stats you can add to your board with this for such a small mana cost is excessive.
From De Other Side: They should change this internally so it doesn't count as the card that kills the minions it summons. This would fix the Fate Splitter problem I and others have commented on elsewhere. Is this combo oppressive? Certainly not. But there are lots of viable control decks right now, and they all just autolose to this.
Ignis, the Eternal Flame: This might be one of the best designed and most fun cards ever printed (yes, I was a big fan of Kazakus when he first came out too). The condition is reasonable, the minion itself has low stats to contrast his powerful effect, and the weapons are perfectly balanced for their respective costs. I don't feel bad when I lose to someone's 10 mana Lifesteal, Windfury Armor gain weapon, because they had to work to get it.
If you've read this far, you won't be surprised to learn that I LOVE Odyn, Prime Designate. Incredibly fun card to play, but definitely not OP. My Odyn deck is considerably stronger with the buff to Craftsman's Hammer.
And finally, the TITANS. Very very cool. Obviously, some are much better than others, but they're a great concept. When they were first introduced, I thought "Not great. You'll almost never keep one alive long enough to use 2 abilities, let alone all 3." Was I right? Yes, but I've found that even just using one ability can be enough to swing the game (death-glaring at you, Sargeras). And they actually stick around for a second turn more often than I was expecting, too.
Thanks for reading! Share your thoughts!
