UR A LIAR AND A BAD PERSON
edit: Should be interesting to see if you're still playing when the Priest Renaissance comes.
Why you not like Freeze mage? I actually think its fun deck to play but maybe I'm crazy or just lazy
someone played yogg against me, first spell was purify. SeemsGood
now with this nerf applied seems like yogg can still pull a huge swing, but that is pretty unlikely and now it even seems to backfire more times than desired.
may be yogg has become way too uncertain to play at a competitive level.
I'll either play a Priest counter or play Priest IF Priest is ever a large percent of ladder. (Which I doubt, no one wants that, including Blizzard. A meta that revolves around Priest would be super frustrating and lose them a chunk of casual players.)
When I was a new player and didn't know the game, I faced a freeze mage who froze my board every turn and then OTKed me. I thought it was bullshit that I couldn't do anything on my turns and then just died. That hatred has lasted for the last two years, but I needed a way to clear my Mage quest and I really don't like piloting Tempo Mage and control Mage is just bad. So, I tried Freeze Mage.
Making Priest players sad is reason enough for me to keep practicing the deck. (I really dislike playing against Priest, and I always have.)

Is the patch out on mobile yet?
Yes, on iOS and Android.
The Yogg era is over, now we get another two months or so of the Shaman era and then new cards and a new meta.CelticKnight

Yes, on iOS and Android.
All I've seen today is Shaman, the mid-range one that Tempostorm has ranked first (surprise, surprise).
Yes, on iOS and Android.
So is it still not out on Amazon yet then? I checked before bed last night and didn't bother since I was in a hurry this morning and prolly won't be playing till the night anyhow.
Yes, on iOS and Android.
shouldn't we be waiting 3 or 4 months before next expansion?
My understanding is that Amazon lags a bit behind Android because they have their own approval process. I haven't heard one way or the other on the Amazon version, so I don't know for sure what's going on there.
We are due one more in 2016, it'll probably hit December based on past years, and then we'll get another in April or so along with the Rotation of TGT, LOE and BRM into Wild.

oh thanks i will get it later than
I forgot golden common cards gave 400 dust during the nerf period, that's quite a lot. good thing I had one golden Abusive which I wasn't even using
I approve of this.
Yeah it will still have strong turns, but we can at least feel good that it is consistently a bad play instead of consistently a good play.
It's actually still more likely to be a good play when you're behind. That's kinda why I said it's the FIRST time the nerf has actually benefited me because more often than not Yogg is still good...
I guess I'm a shallow hypocrite. I don't mind losing to a Yogg every so often but I dont want pros using him. We want to watch them play the game. so by all means roll out some more nerf to discourage them from thinking, "Omg I better cram in Yogg in all my deck to compete!"

Anyone know how long you get the full dust value of the nerfed cards for?
Also, if you craft a card that's been nerfed can you dust it for what the same cost?

until two weeks from the day the patch was available, so until next Oct. 17th
also, yes. You can craft and disenchant at the same cost for these weeks. then the disenchanting will come down again, like normal

Yeah, it's worse now but it's still your best bet at a hail mary play.
Is everyone still running into priests? because I've just run into my third shaman in as many games. Seems, at least for me, the Shaman meta is still going strong.
That's pretty goddamn hilarious

Thanks for the answers. Might give Yogg a run out for a laugh in that case lol...
I got a feeling this had some of the sense that kibler mentioned in his analysis.
They didn't want to change the cards because most of those were ultimately rotating out soon, however they will become eventually a problem of wild, which was the argument kibler tried to make: don't nerf them, move them to wild to let the original people enjoy their old decks. The difference is that instead of moving them, they are just going to ignore them for the little time they will remain in stardard.
it is still weird to me because wild feels more like a dumpster of old and forgotten things.

I've honestly not missed Tunnel Trogg very much in midrange shaman, you won't get the runaway win ever once in awhile where you just go off with it turn 1 but Argent Squire worked much better with flametongue totem and rockbiters.
I'm not sure dumpster is the right word for it. More like exile for undesirables and things that ruin your perfect vision.

I have two golden Doomhammers. Blizzard pls just nerf it already.
I feel like it is pretty pointless to nerf Doomhammer. Nobody has even suggested what a Doomhammer nerf would look like. Hitting Rockbiter instead made more sense.

fuckin' called it, man
I have 7 POs ready to go. And a Golden 477 that probably won't get nerfed

make it a 2/6?

It has Overload tho.
that's another valid description. The design itself tries to tell that when you enter the wild crafting page and everything is darker, more gritty.. the exiles land. The cards themselves have different flavor text boxes
well it cost 7... it is just overloaded.
I don't see a good nerf for doomhammer itself, I saw miles better the nerf to rockbitter, which was the card doom hammer always needed for the ginormous burst damage. I cannot longer make a turn 7 combo of 16 damage. doomhammer has only 2 attack, and it had to always consider the damage the hero takes with each hit, throwing the wep to the face is no really that much.
Well obviously it would not have overload at 7 mana. Overload means you can play it earlier and be more aggressive with it. Not that it matters now that they've changed Rockbiter.
Does nothing for the burst damage that people complain about. If a Shaman holds Doomhammer for 4 full turns you really aren't that upset. You're just nerfing control shaman.

Even without the combo, doomhammer represents 16 damage in itself. Dropping 2 hits off of that is still a significant drop in power.
