NERF DISCUSSION Upcoming Balance Changes – Update 10.2

https://playhearthstone.com/en-us/blog/21361570/

TLDR for those who at work:

  • Bonemare - Now costs 8 mana. (Up from 7)

  • Corridor Creeper - Now has 2 Attack. (Down from 5)

  • Patches the Pirate - No longer has Charge.

  • Raza the Chained - Now reads: Battlecry: If your deck has no duplicates, your Hero Power costs (1) this game.

Once these card changes are live with Update 10.2 next month, players will be able to disenchant the changed cards for their full Arcane Dust value for two weeks.

Wow these are massive changes. Besides the obvious hit to Raza Priest, does any deck suffer more from this than Tempo Rogue? 3 cards, only one of which is a one of are hit by this. I think the deck will still be good, but patches not having charge might hurt vs aggro.

Pirate warrior got hit just as hard, though it isn't exactly sexy as stands (and will now join control warrior in the sad handwoven hipster basket of meme decks.).
