All this info is still to be confirmed by devs, and they're saying some stuff has changed. So let's not get too carried away for now. For translated list of changes that may not be correct anymore, see this.
Yeah, I've stocked up about 150 scraps from milling, which I'm guessing should increase in value a lot after the patch. Can't wait!

Either that or 1600
Or they could be cheap and just give you 800
I'm leaning towards 800 + powder (I think it's 400)
Yup I think it's + powder.
Because otherwise you could effectively buy scraps the coming 2 weeks. 800 scraps legendary > 400 powder > mill into 1600 scraps > rinse and repeat.

I think scrap refunds are stupid. You crafted something, got value out of it already, why should you be rewarded again after it gets nerfed? Why not compensate the people who crafted Djikstra and got no value out of that card because its awful?

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
What if you crafted RNR, Drought, Tibor and three foil Novice's the day before the nerf?
For me personally I'm glad they're doing it the way they are (assuming they're giving full scrap for people who crafted the card or got it in a keg), but the more fair way would be to do it the elder scrolls legends way. If you crafted the card you get full scrap, if you got the card in a keg, you only get the regular amount of scrap.
This might work once the game goes live, but wouldn't work in closed beta. Everyone would be too afraid to use scrap on a deck that could be nerfed completely at any time. Based on the PTR changes, the new patch could change around 60 cards.

Presumably the cards will get balanced, not like they're completely broken.
Disappointed by the Nilf nerfs. The problem is in their toolkit, but they simply addressed the numbers. That being said depper changes may take more time, we'll see.
Agree, but there is no going back, too many people get pissed when their netdecks are brought back to a normal value.

Anyone try remote play with this yet? Seems pretty ideal.
I did on my tablet. It was very smooth and ideal to play on and was surprised by the non existent latency

Because there is money involved. That hard to understand?

Frost nerf hurts Vanhemmar hard. No point in ever choosing frost over bomb now

But again, why would you compensate the people who crafted good things, but not the people that crafted bad things?

Help
Cerys change:
I just got the choice to choose between the following, but Cerys is foil. Should I choose it? Will I get double the value because it will be changed after the patch?
Edit: me and my luck with this game, holy fucking shit. 14 packs, 2 legendaries (one foil).
Choosing the RNR because of the nerf and double value.
Edit 2: and finally:

IF we get double scrap back from changed cards, I'm expecting to go from 1900 scraps (when milling) to around 10k when I dust all the (changed) cards... jesus.
I also wonder about premium versions of changed cards. 1600 scrap or 800 scrap + 400 meteorite? The latter seems more likely.
Dijkstra is getting changed, at least according to the leaked notes, so you'll get full value back. I don't see why returning full value back for cards that get changed somehow pisses you off. You would rather people be refunded for bad choices? How does that kind of arbitrary cutoff even begin to make sense?
Edit:
Also WTF at Yoshi's packs.

RNR and Drough nerfs sound great
RNR: 2 Damage to one highest unit on each row
Drought: 2 Damage to one lowest unit on each row
I can finally get rid of one or two of my 5 anti weather cards

Damn, only 5 days to mill nerfed cards? They should lengthen that. The reason is that people should get a chance to actually play with the new versions to make a decision to mill or not.
5 anti weather cards? Sounds like overkill.

Lol neither do I.
Funny thing is, when they lose, most dont GG me either
Weather decks can have as much as 4 frost cards, RNR, Drought. And a bunch of Monster cards that benefit from weather, including two cards that move your units to a different row.
I needed about 4, plus decoy just to keep up with some opponents. And of course, theyd save RNR or Drought for the end, hoping you used every one of your weather cards.
Sometimes I cant even draw weather, which is why I carry so many

You don't need to remove every weather though. And it's actually really weak to do so.
I got by for a long time with a single silver weather removal. But later I added a bronze lane clear after I switched from emhyr to calveit because calveit is more vulnerable.
But even with 1-2 weather removals I have a high winrate against monsters which seems like the main faction that spams weathers.
Imagine all those weather effects against a deck that plays maybe 1 weather. It's going to be much weaker as a result.
I think the skell nerfs have been rather tame and actually quite appropriate.
Especially the savage bear nerf.
I have only seen like 3-4 card nerfs though.
