When developers make a massive mistake, the community backlash is immediate, fierce, and often historically memorable.
+
These infamous updates become legendary within the community, often referred to by specific eras like 'The Month of the Witch' or 'The Golem Winter'.

+It ruins esports tournaments.Sometimes, developers 'kill' a card intentionally.Even if a card's win rate is exactly 50%, if the community hates playing against it, the devs will usually nerf it. +Release Day Terrors +

+
She was aggressively nerfed three separate times in the following months until she was finally brought into a balanced state.
