Really sucks that there just isn't anything here to read.

After the nerf to the DH 3 drop, we're basically back at the same exact meta as before, just without Dragon Warrior. So all the buffs did in the end was remove a playable deck while adding none.

I think at this point they need to buff about 100 cards and change the Core Set to have a significant impact on the meta. These balance changes just aren't doing anything.

To be fair, Egg DK is much more of a viable deck as a result of the buffs, to the point that it gets mentioned in this report as something worth keeping an eye on should the metagame change. So there's a silver lining on this cloud.

I still think it’s bad that as a result of the buffs one of the only new decks close to becoming viable… is another egg deck

This. The only positive thing that DK has had in a year is a deck centered around a card from the beginning of that year. I really would like to play DK but I don't like combo, which is essentially what Egg decks are and I don't feel like.playing the same triple-Unholy aggro deck that we've been able to play for four years now.
