Ok so i thought to myself “nah it probably isn’t that bad” and went to play a game of arena

So, I definitely agree that Poacher is a broken card in Arena and think it should be nerfed/removed completely... but, in my experience, Poacher appears pretty equally across all classes when drafting.

I know that I’ve drafted it in my last 5 drafts (2x Rogue, 1x Paladin, 1x Warrior, 1x Shaman). I drafted 3 copies of it in 3 of those drafts (Rogue, Warrior, and Paladin), and drafted 2 in the others. What I’m trying to say with that, is that everyone has the opportunity to use them to their advantage (and should, even if it does feel kinda cheap).

I’ve also had this experience with the Twin Tyrant card. I get at least 1 per draft, and have received 3 a couple of times. I believe that card also needs to be changed/nerfed/removed, but afaik everyone else is also getting the opportunity to use both Poacher and Twin T’s, so I’m going to too.

Not really sure what my overall point was for this. I guess its this: I agree that both of those cards are broken and probably shouldn’t be able to swing games as much as they do, however, it also seems like it’s a pretty level playing field because everyone else is drafting them too.
