![]() The deck does not use Cloak of Shadows, and while Wildpaw Gnoll and Shadowcrafter Scabbs are its two best cards, they still remain usable in the archetype. Thief Rogue is hit less than Poison Rogue. This will effectively end Poison Rogue’s reign of terror. This gives decks like Beast Druid, Libram Paladin, and Aggro Elemental Shaman enough time to beat down Rogue on a consistent basis. Poison Rogue was already vulnerable to the fastest aggro decks like Face Hunter, and now its vulnerability window is extended further. The nerf will make Poison Rogue lose its way to contest early boards. Wildpaw Gnoll recently found its way into Poison Rogue, but as the deck uses no other enablers for Gnolls than Maestra of the Masquerade, making cheap Gnolls is much more difficult for the deck. Now, Shadowcrafter Scabbs comes into play one turn later and it is more difficult to use poisons together with Cloak of Shadows to get the necessary damage in before Rogue runs out of Stealth cards. Turn 5 Cloak into turn 6 Cloak and turn 7 Scabbs has been back-breaking in pre-patch games. Poison Rogue’s ability to link back-to-back stealth turns and a Vanish turn with Shadowcrafter Scabbs is severely weakened. Cloak of Shadows cost is increased from 3 mana to 4 mana.Wildpaw Gnoll cost is increased from 5 mana to 6 mana and Attack is reduced from 4 to 3.Shadowcrafter Scabbs cost is increased from 7 mana to 8 mana.Three Rogue cards are being nerfed: all of them are used in Poison Rogue and two of them are used in Thief Rogue. Why are these changes being made? What decks are they targeting? And finally, what can we expect the post-patch meta to look like? Poison Rogue and Thief Rogue Standard is the more popular constructed game mode and the main target of the balance changes, but this time there are also changes directed at Wild. In this article, I want to dig deeper into what the patch means for Constructed. ![]() Two Battlegrounds minions will also receive changes which you can see below.On Tuesday 25 January, the big Hearthstone patch will finally arrive! There is a lot of stuff in this one, including Battlegrounds changes that will almost reinvent the whole game mode. Trade Prince Gallywix changed from tier four to two.Patches the Pirate changed from tier three to two.Overlord Saurfang changed from six to seven.Millificent Manastorm changed from tier three to five.Deathwing changed from tier four to five.Cariel Roame changed from tier six to seven.Scabbs Cutterbutter changed from tier two to one.In addition to the Battlegrounds changes, seven more characters will have their armor tier changed. ![]() Give its stats to all your others.” The Original version of Tamsin’s power only gave away the minion’s health, not all of its stats. It will also have its text changed to read “Start of Combat: Destroy your lowest Health minion. Tamsin’s Hero Power Fragrant Phylactery will now cost one, up from zero. ![]() Additionally, his Hero Power, Sneed’s Replicator, now costs two instead of one. Sneed’s armor tier is increased from tier one to tier two. The two most noteworthy changes come to Sneed and Tamsin. Though the majority of these revolve around changing armor tiers, some are a bit more involved. In addition to all of the Standard changes introduced with patch 20.0.2, Blizzard will also be implementing a host of Battlegrounds balance changes. Wildfire will now specify that your Hero Power will be increased “this game.”
