Steamcleaner Silent Nerfs

With Steamcleaner rotating into core soon, here are some of the most notable interactions that will have you conceding. If cleaner gets teched into most decks these cards get considerably worse!

Most notably: • It practically kills any Incindius or Asteroid type deck. (Honestly a good change imo to make these solitaire decks risky to play) • Moldara is now even worse… • Shaman is definitely the class hurt the most with all of its asteroid cards as-well-as Triangulate becoming real targets. • As if DH players needed any more reason to cry themselves to sleep; Patches is now a risky play (this affects Shaman too) and Crewmates are now even worse. • The only silent buff goes to Priest, expect if they are running repackage you might see the cleaner make an appearance to make sure you don’t get those minions back.

Considering how many of these type of cards are leaving standard already (Boomboss, Fizzle, Plagues, Symphony) it looks like the team may be leaning away from deck style burn/disruption. Also, because MC Tech and charge minions are leaving, they might actually be hoping for more board centric gameplay and fewer OTK style strategies.
