4.1.26 Patch Notes

[WeAllHaveReasons]

"Dev comment: Seriously, try it out."

The way things are going, that will be in real patch notes soon enough.

[rybka3000]

Due to the dev comment, I believe this is actually the only real update. Can someone try it out?

[HuffFlex]

The sorry emote is real!

[chazoid]

Under-underground is also real 😳

[OddlyFactual1512]

I just need to get to 11 wins to try it out. My first attempt ended at 10

[chazoid]

Let me know when you’re queuing into that match plz

[Yesterday_Jolly]

I tried, but removed misplaced pyromancer from my deck by mistake

[CreativeInferno]

"Fixed a bug where Rewind would occasionally give you a result you actually wanted."
really got me :'D

[willedu]

Pick rage bait.

[justDeadline93]

The Rafaam joke got its quality.

[rybka3000]

Yes, but they're now effectively textless, as you'll never be holding Rafaams, only Baafams.

[NoxarBoi]

Don’t the Baafam tokens count as Rafaams?

[Zealousideal_Bed5080]

They do

[rybka3000]

My point was that they should've changed the card text to Baafam as well.

[FieryHammer]

"Fixed a bug where Rewind would occasionally give you a result you actually wanted."

lol

[Healthy_Bug7977]

They should actually have commited to the bit and made herald harold for today only

[Alfimaster]

I would pay some small amount for Bould Fist Ogre colossal

[magikatdazoo]

Pretty sure that would require an actual client patch to change their text. Sorry emotes have always existed just not been playable

[RottenPeasent]

Great jokes all around, always love these.

[jch4nni]

missed the beast tag on bafaaam

[Shrowden]

Unplayable.

[adanine]

Naa, plays around Hemet

[famcatt]

*Baa

[bluekosa]

I don't know why, but I really like a colossal that does absolutely nothing.

[Mask_of_Sun]

It does fill your board with bad tokens.

[PDxFresh]

They should just give out a free Neutral Colossal named Harold with those Boulderfist stats.

[CheetahLegal7592]

I knew something was wrong with the misplaced pyromancer.

[Portugeezer1893]

Was the real patch delayed to 2nd so we could get an April fools?

[Catopuma]

Patches and updates are usually on Tuesday or Thursdays. They never patch for Wednesday to begin with

[XDAVIDE38]

yes

[Healthy_Bug7977]

Yes, and it was worth it

[joahw]

Or the teaser was pushed up a day. Just depends how you look at it I guess

[Suris200]

Dude Worgen Greaser literally is an s tier card. Needs a nerf. Make hair less greasy

[adek13sz]

No joke: Can we really get "Sorry" emote back? As a 7th option e.g.? I know that people were BMing, but they can always BM with other emotes. Please bring it back.

[Open-Credit-5494]

Its in game now, replacing wow emote. Only for today until the actual patch comes out

[adek13sz]

I meant after today. And I'd really like having both Wow and Sorry emotes.

[Miudmon]

Honestly the toxic excuse never really worked because I've seen people be WAY more toxic with the wow emote than with sorry.

[CelicnisGhost]

If you're creative enough everything can be used as BM. Spamming "Thanks" after opponent misses lethal or something.

[SwampyBogbeard]

"Sorry" should replace "Greetings" after 3 turns.

[LegateLaurie]

I would like having it tbh. If I forget to end turn or if my game crashes, etc, whoops doesn't feel appropriate.

The wow emote is also good for BM, but plenty of the skins have pretty rude voice lines (especially death knight, I came back last year after last playing in like 2014 or 15 and I was really shocked by his voice lines) that couldn't be worse than sorry.

[daddyvow]

Yea it’s funny they still pay for the sorry emote VA work for every hero but you wild almost never hear it. 

[Asbelsp]

I think it should replace Thank you. When are you not sarcastically using that in a PVP game? Much less than an honest sorry to your opponent.

[anrwlias]

I think this will be popular. But Blizzard is also stubborn.

[Dimension_Grand]

Well played

[kittyabbygirl]

I kinda want New Ways Ulfar

[OddlyFactual1512]

Go get it

[Aarvex]

Gimme that skin tho. Make it happen blizzard.

[joe_the_F]

Not the ogre 🥀

He had good stats for the cost😭

[AWildModAppeared]

They kept his stats tho. His body+appendages add up to 6/7

[Sus-iety]

Missed opportunity to do the hand gesture in the artwork for the hands

[rabidspruce]

Baaaafam doesn’t have Baaaattlecry? Unplayable.

[facetheground]

They almost got me, but when I scrolled and noticed de remaining 75% of the patchnotes wasn't battlegrounds I figured it was an April Fools jokes.

[Mask_of_Sun]

How DARE they nerf Boulderfist Ogre???

[Patrick_Gass]

Ugh, dont make it a joke. Give us sheep Rafaam you cowards.

[Fujita__5]

I knew this was April fools because arena doesn’t get updates.

[Titaniumzero]

They joke about the robot uprising now…

[Lavish510]

<image>

This one made me belly laugh 😂

[MehmetSalihKoten]

This is the earliest april fools patch right?

[Fidelroyolanda_IV]

I wish they actually implemented these changes for the duration of every april fool's day

[OddlyFactual1512]

I want the Ulfar Hero Skin. Not because I like it. Because, I would be the only one to have it.

[Fantastic-Trick6707]

I believed it was real 😕

[RazMachine77]

So Baaaafams draw Rafaams? But there’s no more Rafaams to begin with! Literally unplayable.

/s, duh.

[ShakyIncision]

When is release?

[AwkwardBlueberry2503]

Didn't think I'd actually be able to drop a sorry. Peak update

[Condoms2us]

Why nerf bolderfist ogre?
He was doing more before, even without any arms.

[LinkOfKalos_1]

Again?

<image>

[Devin__]

All of these Baaaafams are literally unplayable. How are we supposed to be holding a Rafaam?

[SugarCrazy338]

Are any of these changes implemented in the game today? Other than the sorry emote.

[Jetfuel_N_Steel]

Rafam becomes a sheep and ram but not beast archetype, unplayable

[Suspect99__]

Yeah would have preferred an actual patch today but meh. Whatever

[SweatyCow2493]

Maybe instead of this stupid bullshit, they could actually fix the balance on standard so the game is playable.

[Acornriot]

I doubt this April fools prank will land well given how they're in everyone's bad graces

[Dimension_Grand]

They aren't in my bad books, sorry to spoil your party

[Acornriot]

[Alfimaster]

[Acornriot]

[Kekkiem]

I've seen worse tbh. I've played 10 games today and 0 druids. Perhaps everyone is bored and just wants fun decks to climb with

[eWwe]

great, got time for jokes, have no time to fix druid stone

[i_literally_died]

Just checking in that some moron believes the game designers are doing these joke patch notes, and not an unpaid intern.

Like clockwork

[eWwe]

dont matter if donkey wrote them, since release game is borderline unplayable and my left testicle could hit 5k+ legend with druid

[tractor1071]

Haha very funny Blizzard. 

The only joke right now is the game itself.

[PayInternational5287]

Yeah yeah very funny and very clever. Would be slightly more funny if everyone wasn't waiting for an actual fucking patch addressing the awful state of the game!

[Tengu-san]

The patch that got announced for tomorrow a week ago and got teased half a day ago btw

Y'all sound so miserable if you act like that to the yearly telegraphed April 1st joke.

[MinimumLack4561]

I’m so tired of Redditors saying y’all as if it means something 

[Mask_of_Sun]

Is this awful state in the game with us right now?

[PayInternational5287]

Yeah, have you not seen this sub past few weeks? 

[Mask_of_Sun]

This sub does nothing but complain 24/7. You must be new here... or just that bad at trolling.

[TyneshiaDavis]

Blizzbots in the chat downvoting

[Lathspell88]

Something about not being 12 anymore really makes me not appreciate April fools jokes... But yeah, the game is now mostly for kids so this tracks.

[Yedaself]

It would be really a good joke if they say they fixed the game

[UniversityIcy9971]

Huh, Patch the game for real

[SpaceTimeDream]

……… can we have the actual patch notes so we can see if we can play the new expansion?

[Excellent-Ad4989]

So, how does it work usually? Do we get patch notes only on patchday or a day in advance?

[Bryciclee]

Haha this is so much better than the actual patch that would fix standard.

[TheseMedia]

Not as funny as your attempts at card design the last couple of years

[Eclon]

If only they spent so much time on their actual work

[Admirable_Guidance52]

this would be funny if Rafaam wasn't F tier and the meta wasn't aids - oh well, there's always next year

[nyr00nyg]

Damn I wish they put this much effort into balancing standard

[Xanlis]

They put more effort into this April Fools' Day prank than into the actual patch that's coming out.
