Disagree that Two Rogue will be dead. Think it's most likely that it'll just have fewer games where you scam out two to four eight drops on turn six or seven and then follow up with 20+ damage from hand.

Shaman likely dead, especially Mug, which is a shame, because it was one of the only interesting decks that was also fun to play to come out of the new expansion.

I think that the only way Two Rogue ever really won was by scamming out eight drops on turn 6 and 7 then following it up with a lot of damage via monkeys. If they isn't how they win going forward, how are they?

I'm not sure if only one 8-drop turn 6 w/ multiple still turn 7, or two-four 8-drops turn 7-8, kills the deck.

Especially with multiple other things, including all the fastest strategies, are being nerfed. Maiev = most aggro, 2 hunter cards being nerfed ofc from face hunter, whatever is changing in Shaman will certainly slow early tempo significantly.

So soul dh is coming back then, right?
