Lots of changes this week! Blizzard dropped the heavy end of the nerf bat on a few of the more problematic cards but how will this shake things up? The short answer: not as much as you might think.

Hello and welcome! Today is the first installment of a weekly, regular-ish Hearthstone column brought to you by yours truly and Numot Gaming where we talk about anything and everything from metagame, new decks, tournament results, card changes and releases, or anything else that particularly strikes my fancy.
