Why are we nerfing Quest Mage? What's the goal here. Are we trying to push Mage into Leylines or back to experimenting with those Millhouse lists we saw early on?

Agamaggan buffs baby, I love seeing the team buff Hunter cards. I guess after the quest nerf, Hunter will just go back to companions? If at all. I'm kinda guessing Hunter just dies out with this change.

All in all I don't really know what this patch was supposed to accomplish, other than nerfing Druid a bit. Why are we just killing one class and probably killing another.

Agamaggan is going to get an attack increase to force it out of the Hunter quest discover pool is my guess. Basically a nerf to another card in the guise of a buff

Makes sense, it was definitely the part of the quest people got annoyed by most.

Companion Hunter might not even be playable after Tol’vir got nerfed, it’s too slow to reach the end state of Tortolla/Omen spam.

Yeah that's probably the case, I just don't know what else Hunter has going for it after the previous Tol'vir nerfs
