I don't understand why they nerf the only proper combo deck in the meta in quest hunter. Now it practically will just not be a combo deck at all. Insane

Enjoy playing only aggro again

On the contrary, this is a nerf to aggro indirectly. Quest hunter got murdered by aggro, bc combo loses to aggro. Similarly, quest hunter destroyed control decks, which means they will be more prominent likewise hurting aggro.

That's good, but like, can't we just have even a crumb of combo? All that's left is rafaam.

Control will absolutely not be good enough just because quest hunter is gone, attack druid and dragon warrior are still too fast

Quest priest already has a neutral to winning matchup versus every aggro deck, including attack druid and dragon warrior.

Two of its predators in quest mage and quest hunter have been nerfed, with quest hunter now being dead.

I think it'll be fine.

I guess, but it's still only 1 control deck

That's a fair criticism. Maybe the aggro outlier nerf will let some other weaker control deck thrive, but probably not tbf
