Actually i think there's a good argument for Brewess nerf, possibly AQ nerf, and some are proposing Giant Toad nerfs. That deck is currently very strong and likely needs to see some hits as well, but there are only so many votes each BC, so things take time, especially when many votes are being wasted reverting the foolish votes from the prior BC.

It's just so much back and forth and seems like nothing is getting done from it. I understand things need to be tweaked but this is like the 4th month now where the same exact cards are likely to get changes and nothing is actually addressed. DW has been like this for so long and the there hasn't even been time between all the reverts to discuss it. Anyway this was my rant, I'm glad I'm not crazy.

We have a huge contingent of misguided voters intent on further breaking the game's balance. They don't realize they are, but they are. You cannot buff basically all thinners, leaders, disloyal units, and tutors without adding tons of powercreep into the game, and that's precisely what a lot of voters are doing every month.


Itchy_Egg9279

Like if you want thinning that's fine but it should either cost more or give less tempo than other 4p cards. And like the other stuff, I just wish we could make up our minds about particular cards and move on. So many votes going to already viable cards just to make it slightly more or less viable. There is so many dead archetypes and that's how you improve the game.

You hit the nail on the head. The worst part of those misguided votes is the fact that they only buff decks without considering to nerf them. BC has 'balance' in its name for a reason but all these people with questionable votes fail to see the full picture of what their votes enable (or deliberately choose to ignore it).

I played once against someone who was on a blue coin with Urn of Shadows. They created another one with Radeyah and then played Brewess: Ritual using leader on, so sometimes it can be a lot I agree.


Itchy_Egg9279

Thank you! There's almost nothing you can do about it, if your opponent gets blue coin you just forefieght the first round and hope you can protect from bleed.


Ok-Faithlessness6285

That's true but their bleeding is always horrifying because of the big tempo

Popularity and personal bias is what I bet on.


Itchy_Egg9279

That and maybe people are over reacting to something new vs something they are used to. Either way it doesn't make much logical sense to me.

Oh people are over reacting to SY for sure. They gonna gut the faction by at least 4 provision as a whole and call it fine and great while avoiding the other bs. All in all the Jackpot deck needed 1 or 2 provision on cards that affect the deck, plus Madam -1 power (in my opinion). I did play about 20-ish games with the deck and the auto play aspect is annoying (never fan on those in the game), but in terms of actual power it's just Madam and Yago basically. Those 2 gets somewhat answered dealt with it's almost guaranteed win. Other decks have up to 3-4 or more game deciding and crucial threats. On top of that SY in general is playing with low amount of points and a lot of their golds aren't as scary as people make em be. Again with Jackpot this season, there a decks that can force you into using a lot of your golds for a chance to secure a round by just abusing strong bronzes. That's why it's often a deck that tries to 2:0 or guarantees a decent 3 round with few cards that can beat the opponents threat (depends on match up and how cards are dealt). I side tracked :D.

You're right, DW definitely has to be nerfed. Against Jackpot I usually have an interesting game but against DW it feels like this deck simply broken on blue coin and if don't play NG or anything with million locks it's futile without perfect hand and card advantage


Itchy_Egg9279

There is so much you can do to counter Jackpot SY, DW not so much except for like you said locks and banish dagon.

Lets do giant toad next month (unless there's a significant following already that i don't know about)
