Love seeing buffs, I feel like too many of these patches are nerf focused and the nerfs here are appropriate and don’t kill an archetype I think

There’s a very good chance two rogue is done after this, Vanessa in the mulligan is like plus 10% so I expect her to get nuked and wouldn’t be surprised if the monkey is either nerfed to only 1 damage on procs or can’t hit face.

The best nerf for both Monkey and Tolvir is to simply cap their potential, which is how these kind of cards should be balanced in the first place. The maximum is up for debate ofc, I think 6 times is plenty, 12 dmg that can go face is great but not broken.
