It is. It's just not necessary for the evolve deck.
All the best decks right now are single player decks. Get your cool evolve combos.

Every Shaman deck in the history Hearthstone had hex.

aggro shaman didnt play hex
mech shaman didnt play hex
evle shaman doesnt play hex
murloc shaman doesnt/didnt play hex

meh, not really

I remember them all playing hex though
Maybe there were a couple VERSIONS of those decks not playing it but it was definitely in meta

2 of them are lazy nerfs
transforming innervate in a counterfeit coin is lazy design
transforming fiery war axe, the card that makes warrior warrior, into a way worse eaglehorn bow is lazy design

the rest is fine imo, even if hex isnt even played, i guess its debatable
jade mechanic remains the same, fuck that

Guess we'll wait and see. Innervate needed changing, that's for sure.

Fiery War Axe idk. Pirate Warrior needed nerfing but we'll see if this one was wise.

They mention other options that they considered in the writeup so it's not like they just picked the first thing they thought of.

well, the point isnt to make the druid a non-viable class... ^^

Maybe viable isn't the right term. T1 is the right term.

Druid has rarely had a time when it was flat out bad. At least not since I've been playing. They barely even drop out of T1 constantly being a big part of the meta. Either it was combo, ramp, aggro, malygos, druid just always finds a way and Innervate and wild growth were always at the core imo.
