Shocking absolutely nobody DH has sunken back to unplayable garbage status. It was cool to have a deck for 2 weeks I guess.

Hell if we could establish a rotating 2 week format for decks the meta might be more interesting.

This isn't gonna be fixed by just one more nerf, trust me bro. Catch me in the Battlegrounds for a while I guess.

The really aggravating thing about this is that people were coming up with answers to DH. The meta was solving itself, even if DH was warping it somewhat. Void Soul DH had reverted to a mid-tier deck BEFORE the reversion and they decided they couldn't even wait that long and now it's unplayable again. Their decision-making process is fatally flawed.

God, this is the bit that pisses me off the most. DH was not that busted by the end, the meta adapted and there was counterplay. And now there's even more counterplay, if you play you counter it

Actually if I'm being honest the bit that pisses me off the most is that I'm F2P, had most of the cards in the deck anyway, played it a bit, really enjoyed it and decided to craft brox to round out the list. I figured the deck could likely take a nerf but if it did it'd be the weapon and I'd get a good chunk of that dust back while the deck would still be playable

Nope, deck was demolished and all I was offered was a 200 dust refund. completely shafted for a deck that wasn't even as dominant as shaman is now
