I just don't get it. All over the forums you see things like "nerf Mysterious Challenger" or "nerf Force of Nature + Savage Roar" and blizzard is just like "LOL NEW FORMAT". I don't think any of the Hearthstone playerbase actually wanted a new format.


secret paladin without minibot, muster and avenge seems quite shitty for now tho

I did.
I've been wanting a new format for a long time.

I'd really like some card balance too though.


Were you hoping that the new format would become the new main competitive mode? Like, they just fundamentally changed what competitive hearthstone is. Apparently some new card balance is coming for classic but I don't think people are really complaining about most of those.

Secret paladin is done now I think. No shredder, belcher, loatheb, or Dr. Boom either.

based on ?


PC Gamer: With the switch to Standard and Wild, will you only be balancing around Standard? If some new egregious combo was found that only affected Wild, would you step in?

BB: I think our tolerance is different in the two formats. In general you know we’re very conservative about balance and we like to try and let the players deal with the meta and shift on their own and we like to release new tools and new expansions to help with that as well.
But we have, as you know, taken some steps to make nerfs in the past when things have gotten out of control, we will probably have to continue to do that in Standard, we’ll be paying more attention in Standard. Wild is eventually going to become a format where there’s so many cards... it’s going to be a little bit wild there! So a little bit of difference of tolerance I think.

I don't really give a shit what it becomes. That's not relevant to me.

I just wanted more to do since this is mainly a casual based game anyway.

I hate how blizzard's policy is pretty much "don't balance stuff, just wait until the expansion when a new broken deck comes out"

Because they don't do anything right
Just "doing something" doesn't make it good
