In September of 2016 the Hearthstone card Yogg-Saron, Hope's End was nerfed, making it so that it would not continue casting spells upon his death, transformation or leaving the battlefield for any other reason.



The stated reason was "seeing Yogg in tournaments was not where we originally hoped it would end up", and "Yogg should be for players who want to have a lot of fun, but maybe not the card you see frequently in high-level tournaments."

As there are not many tournaments with the Wild-format, this would be way less of an issue. In addition, as previously shown in various Tavern Brawls, it is possible to give cards a 'banned' status in formats. Should Yogg-Saron, Hope's End prove to show up too often in the Wild organized tournaments, this is a reasonable solution as well.



Currently, Yogg-Saron, Hope's End is a Wild-only card, a format that is advertised as "the format where anything can happen". As such, a card like pre-nerf Yogg-Saron, Hope's End fits perfectly in this format.

There is also a precedent in reverting nerfs in the case of Molten Giant, where his previous nerf was reverted as he was put into the Hall of Fame.



As such, this petition aims to send a strong message towards Team 5, the development team for Hearthstone, to urge them to strongly consider reverting the nerf to Yogg-Saron, Hope's End.
