Patches: probably still playable.

Corridor Creeper: I'm fine with it; card just needed to die.

Raza: Really wish they would have nerfed Anduin instead. Raza was a cool but niche card before Anduin came out.

Bonemare: I....really disagree with this change (for constructed; in Arena...sure, but they could also just lower the offering rate in Arena). Most decks don't run bonemare. Jade Druid doesn't run bonemare. Cubelock doesn't run bonemare. Raza priest doesn't run bonemare. You need a deck with a really sticky board to even support bonemare (so like...Tempo Rogue and Zoolock run it, and not much else). And like...it's a good 7 drop, but there are classes with their own better 7 drops (looking at you Firelands Portal).

Bonemare is...good, but it's maybe 1 stat above where it should be. Like...if Bonemare was a 4/5 or a 5/4 instead of a 5/5, that might be enough of a nerf for it to be considered useable but balanced. At 8 mana it will be hot garbage for constructed; a few people will try it out at 8 mana, but people will quickly figure out it's bad. Obvious comparison here is Call of the Wild. Call is 12/10 worth of stats, some of which have charge and taunt for 8 mana--it was too good, it got nerfed to 9 mana, where it is never played. Bonemare is 9/9 worth of stats for 7, some of which has charge/taunt -- 4 less than the original Call for one less mana (not as efficient). So...we have a card that's not as efficient as the original Call of the Wild, and getting the same nerf that killed Call of the Wild? Yeah, it's done, dust it and don't expect to craft it ever again.
