    Reducing Max Deck Size to 60 Cards + Hero in QM

    We have a thread and poll about potentially reducing the deck size to 80 + hero for quick match. The votes seem split right now.

    But, in the comments, some people said that it was not enough of a reduction and they'd be happier with an even bigger reduction. Well, this thread is an attempt to find out more.

    What do you think?

    I did vote yes, but just to be able to play mill prax once again. I think if we make this change mill prax will dominate the meta and will have to be nerfed somehow
    I milled fat Garth with rush Loest. Twice.
    I stalled Moonstaller with Rothem.
    I played Ter with monopoly cards and 4x toll bridge and managed to win a tournament.
    I cast Portal and Kris in one turn and lived to tell the tale.

    I wondered that too, but that would be OK and reasonably quick to address. He's balanced right now assuming people could go up to 120 cards.

    I'm in the process of gathering a lot of stats to inform any decision at the moment.

    It's simply limiting the diversity of decks and making duels boring.

    120 deck is never stronger than 60 decks or 40 decks. it's the player's choice.

    please do not make this game boring

    What deck type is only possible to make with more than 60 cards that is not possible to make with 60 or less?

    What diversity are you talking about?

    An ally heavy 120 Boris is a midrange deck just as 40 cards Boris.
    A 120 cards Stallvox is a stall deck just as 60 cards stallvox.

    I feel like maybe we weren't clear enough about the meaning of "Quick Match". The only time you are going to get through a very large deck to the point where it matters that you had so many cards is if the game was not quick. Those non-quick games are the ones we wish to eliminate, especially as once you leave "quick" territory those games favour the player who went big.

    If you really intend to see and use all your cards in a huge deck, then you are not intending for a quick match. By all means take those giant decks into custom matches.

    I don't think it is good.
    First,it will reduce decks diversity.I like SE because SE have so many funny decks not like HS only have Druid.
    Second,it can't let the game quickly than now. Account for most Undead or Homumcule's decks in rate and stall decks hardly any.
    Third,if max cards to 60,mill deck will be strong.All hope is lost will be the best card.
    Then you will nerf prax and other mill card.

    Here are my suggest:
    nerf 2cc 2atk4hp ally,it is too op.
    balance the upper hand and the defensive,same hand difference ending.
