Blizzard has announced a new round of balance changes for WOTLK Classic, and this one includes a major nerf to one of the Mage's classic mainstays WOTLK Classic Gold. Two other changes hit cards that make for powerful combos and have made for strong archtypes of their own, but the biggest change by far is to one of the oldest cards in the entire game.

WOTLK Classic 's next expansion, The Boomsday Project, is coming up, and as is the tradition, Blizzard is rolling out cards progressively up to the release. P2Pah has just had its own reveal for the new Paladin spell Shrink Ray. You can watch the video above for our reveal, but there's lots to unpack when it comes to this card, so we've put together an in-depth analysis about what this means for WOTLK Classic and its meta.
The Shrink Ray card is a clear signal that Control Paladin is primed to make a comeback. That's no small feat. Mike Donais told us that the design team tries to push classes into directions where they're currently under-developed. Control Paladin was a mainstay of vanilla WOTLK Classic and lasted through the first few expansions, but more recently expansions have consistently pushed it into a more aggressive direction. Cards like Shrink Ray may be enough to bring it back. The name comes from cheap WOW WOTLK Classic Gold the ability to control the battlefield and outlast your opponent into the late-game, and this could just be the tool Paladin needs.
