The time has finally come; with the format change right around the corner, Blizzard just released the Hearthstone cards from the basic set that are going to be changed . There are a lot of heavy nerfs, weakening some of the most powerful cards in the game. Druid got hit the hardest, losing their precious Force of Nature and Savage Roar combo. Overall, I like all of these changes. They remove some of the power from the OP cards, which should make room for other cards to shine.
Here’s a full list of the changes:
- Ancient of Lore- “Choose One- Draw 2 cards or Restore 5 Health” becomes “Choose One: Draw 1 card or Restore 5 Health”
- Force of Nature- 6 mana, “ Summon three 2/2 Treants with Charge that die at the end of the turn” to 5 mana, “Summon three 2/2 Treants”
- Keeper of the Grove- From 2/4 to a 2/2
- Ironbeak Owl- From two mana to three
- Big Game Hunter- From three mana to five (!!!!) mana
- Hunter’s Mark- From zero mana to one mana
- Blade Flurry- From two mana to four mana, only affects minions now
- Knife Juggler- From 3/2 to 2/2
- Leper Gnome- From 2/1 to 1/1
- Arcane Golem- From 4/2 to 4/4
- Molten Giant- From 20 mana to 25 mana
- Master of Disguise- “ Give a friendly minion Stealth” is now“Give a friendly minion Stealth until your next turn.”
