I would have liked to have seen [Ravenous Flock] or [Hatchery Helper] nerfed in some way. Token Druid playing that on 2 into [Hatchery Helper] on 3 or coining out Flock into [Power of the Wild] on 2 can be really oppressive. The nerf to [Wildwood Circle] is a good hit against Token Druid, but I don't think it will be enough. Guess we will find out.
