We’ll continue to monitor the class after these adjustments to determine if further changes are needed down the line. Shield Block is a card we now hope can become a definitional, powerful card that represents what Warrior is about. We’re also buffing some older cards to help support the class generally. We’re buffing these Festival of Legends cards to give those themes a chance. Cast a Fire spell to revive Thori-belore!ĭev Comment: Warrior had two major themes this expansion, menagerie and riffs, and neither of them landed at the level we were hoping for at launch.
Cast a Fire spell to revive Thori-belore! (Revives 2 times.) The following cards have been adjusted to be more powerful: Overseer Frigidara is a Core Set card, so it can’t be crafted or disenchanted.
Rowdy Fan and Twig of the World Tree will be eligible for full dust refunds for two weeks following Patch 26.0.4. The interaction between Twig of the World Tree and Sphere of Sapience didn’t exist when Twig was first printed, so this change is to curb this card’s power level and bring it back closer to the original play pattern.
Dev Comment: Twig of the World Tree is the best card in a really good deck leading to some frustrating play experiences in Wild right now. New: Deathrattle: Refresh your Mana Crystals. Old: Deathrattle: Gain 10 Mana Crystals. We wanted to shave a bit more power off it by bringing one of its best cards more in line with the rest of the deck. Dev Comment: Death Knight has several strong decks, and Frost Death Knight stands out as the strongest of the bunch. But even outside of that combo, it’s a card that is just a bit too efficient at its rate in a wide variety of decks. Dev Comment: Rowdy fan has gotten a lot of attention in combination with Lady S’Theno, a powerful combo at high levels of play. The following cards have been adjusted to be less powerful: We’ve also received a lot of feedback that one of the more frustrating parts of playing against Death Knights is when they are able to generate additional copies of their powerful triple-rune cards-particularly when the card is one the deck didn’t have access to in deckbuilding. There are a few outliers that we’re looking to reign in with this patch, but the bigger focus is on raising the power level of some of the new Festival of Legends cards and archetypes, so that they can compete with the stronger stuff and people can feel better about trying out these fun new strategies.Īll Death Knight cards with any three-rune requirements (Frost-Frost-Frost, Blood-Frost-Unholy, etc.) are now removed from all Discover pools and random generation effects.ĭev Comment: Death Knight is very strong as a class right now, and this change weakens the class across the board. Patch 26.0.4 is a data-only patch that includes bug fixes and balance updates to Standard, Wild, Battlegrounds, and Duels!ĭev Comment: Overall, we’re pretty happy with meta diversity and power in Standard right now.
