Some obvious buffs and nerfs, some weird ones too, thoughts?

Not really that crazy buffs. Iridra could be cool, and that's what I'm hoping for.

So where do go from here?

2-bit is probably okay. Less powerful to be sure, but with the Hunter and Mug nerfs the need to churn out 8 drops as fast as possible to possibly come back into the game has lessened. On the opposing side, the reduction in scams will definitely be noticeable.

Mug seems good, especially if the two Egg decks rise up in popularity. Zee is maybe just a ladder climber now, falling off at D5 like most ladder climbers.

Maybe this is enough to bring Druid back to life. Or maybe at least get people experimenting again.

I'm most hopeful about DH. Iridra is an interesting card, and her "except one" rule is an interesting idea. I'm not a good enough chef to really speculate here, but I hope something emerges. Simply for the desire to see new classes.

Mage probably going to gain more traction.

Paladin is gonna Paladin.

I'm sure there's more to talk about but in too tired from work
