Mage is a problem

geez would be fun in this board centric meta i can get to use my board

noo lets nerf snowfall guardian because it was too strong for a board yeah? ok well what about

Mage

  • location / freezes + spawns a guy with 3 ! charges
  • snow flurry (yes they run that)
  • blizzard x 5 ( 2 copies 2 from the parrot 1 from dawngrasp)
  • Dawngrasp wich also freezes ( not the hero power card)
  • snowflurry elemental ( because offcourse making your heropower able to freeze)

and oh yeah god damn solid alibi for good measure for the stall cancer that you somehow didnt touch or nerf at all no let’s nerf snowfall guardian…

please hall of fame blizzard it’s no longer something we need in this current state of hearthstone that cards been around for ages and with all the other freeze effects mages has does it really need a board clear that also freezes , either let it do 2 damage to all or just freeze everything not both then effectively you can revert the snowfall nerf because thats basically blizzard

mage is becoming a reason i do not enjoy playing hearthstone daily

Upcoming nerfs were finalized on Friday and are due to be announced this week.

Snowfall still freezes the board endlessly, it was problematic because it also put a lethal threat on the board at the same time turn after turn which was way too powerful.

I get hating freeze effects but it seems to have made you blind to why snowfall guardian was so much more problematic. Give me Blizzard over frost nova + Deathwing on board any day of the week.

no i mean fair it would become like 10/10+ but its a minion you can interact with that as far as the game allows you too.

meanwhile blizzard is just 2 damage to everything and freeze everything you cant react or interact with it your minions are just “frozen and damaged” ill take snowfall guardian over any other freeze effects in the game thank you.

also they could’ve nerfed snowfall to 8 mana instead so it curves great into devourer but no lets remove the buff stats

You remove the first one with no minions…want about the second? Then the third 3 mana one? Or the fourth? The 5th?

Just 1 would be fine, just like I imagine you’d be fine with only one Blizzard, but there wasn’t only 1.

If I’m playing an aggro deck, I’m already trying to play around board clears, so the 2 damage doesn’t bother me at all. If anything it helps as it’ll kill off some of my weaker minions to give me board space to play more. Whereas being board locked when playing a minion heavy deck is just obnoxious.

Mage is not a problem. The problem is that people do not think about how to counter it. Play curse quest warlock and watch them burn.
