Festival of Legends has been revealed and we have a lot of cards to talk through, especially some neutrals that may (or may not) be bait!

It's like the launch meta, but it's in March now! Get it? Get it??? The 1 mana nerfs brought back a number of archetypes that could not function under the pressure of Gnoll and Quarter. Things are pretty good!

The nerfs dramatically opened up available space for strategies new and old. Hat's pretty happy with the new best deck...

We have some things to talk about, but this isn't a format that yields a lot of deep conversation. Frost DK is broken. Play it until it's gone. 

Chaddius is not the way to win games unless you get him off evolves on turn 2. But there are ways to win games beyond evolve scams in Return to Naxx! And we talk about them!

Who would've thought that Wildpaw Gnoll was oppressing minion strategies that are now flourishing?

Do you really wanna see what the space between tempo and midrange looks like? Memes aside, we got a new balance patch and have some insights into the early data from 25.2.2.

Seriously, if that thing lives, what do you even do? Zach has some other meta developments too. 

Is this meta broken on a fundamental level? Is this a balance issue or a larger design problem? Are these questions clickbait? (Yes.)
