Heroes of the Storm balance patch: Deathwing gets adjusted and the meta starts packing boxes

Blizzard shipped fresh balance/bug fixes in Heroes of the Storm, including Deathwing-related changes and a handful of talent/interaction fixes across multiple heroes.

What it means for gamers: if you play ranked/organized games, "small numbers" patches still change everything—especially when they touch a popular pick. Expect a short-lived period where everyone argues the character is either "dead" or "still broken," and both sides are somehow certain they're right.
