Update: Patch 9.1 Nerfs to go Live on September 18

by - 7 years ago

As we reported a week ago, when the upcoming changes were first announced, Patch 9.1 will bring big changes to Innervate, Fiery War Axe, Hex, Murloc Warleader, and Spreading Plague. Check out the original post for lots of great details on why the changes were made and what other changes were considered. This morning, it was announced that the patch would go live on September 18th. Now that you have had a week to ruminate on them, what do you think of the upcoming balance changes?

    • Innervate – Now reads: Gain 1 Mana Crystal this turn only. (Down from 2)
    • Fiery War Axe – Now costs 3 mana. (Up from 2)
    • Hex – Now costs 4 mana. (Up from 3)
    • Murloc Warleader – Now reads: Your other Murlocs have +2 Attack. (Down from +2 Attack, +1 Health)
    • Spreading Plague – Now costs 6 mana. (Up from 5)

This patch is currently targeted for September 18th PDT. Please note that updates for mobile devices may take a few additional hours to propagate.

Once these card changes are live, players will be able to disenchant cards that are not Basic (Murloc Warleader and Spreading Plague) for their full Arcane Dust value for two weeks. Basic cards cannot be disenchanted and will not be available for an Arcane Dust refund.
