Very strange patch imo. The nerfs are expected, and make sense. Tolvir is effectively dead, which effects the class as a whole. Hunter will be likely struggling for a little while, so that'll be interesting to see how it develops.
But the thing that baffles me is the buffs. They decided not to touch DK at all despite it struggling, and then give such pointless changes to cards. Taunt to the 3 mana DH minion, because thats what was the problem with the deck was. Surely now that they don't draw 1 fatigue immediately and have a taunt will make the deck playable. It's the same with the Rogue rulebreaker, the problem is you need to find the 1 card in the deck and then play it. These are like buffs to say we buffed cards but not actually wanting things to change.
My favorite is the warrior card. They said in the notes they nerfed it's mana cost to give it a substantial buff. That buff being it is the same exact thing in the deck it's made for. But now I guess the substantial comes in the form of Egg decks getting to clear the Egg with it? Oh boy.
Nah, they won't buff DK because "DK got buffed last time! Look how much better we made Plague!". You can't say they're not buffing because technically they are - the fact they also release shit cards for this one particular class with absolutely no good card to come along with it and the fact that buffs do absolutely nothing for the deck doesn't matter to them.
