A lot of players of the online card game "Hearthstone" have been happy to hear that a balance update has been released since some of the game's overpowered cards have been nerfed, making the game less broken. However, along with it comes some problems, and some players have been reporting issues after downloading the latest patch.

According to the iTechPost, it seems that some players who downloaded the "Hearthstone" patch were experiencing errors, receiving messages that say "unable to load mono library." The good news is that it is but a minor inconvenience and is easy to resolve with a little bit of know-how.

When the players encounter the problem, all they need to do is to go to the Options button, which is located on the upper-left corner of their Battle.net launcher. Once that is pressed, they should find the Scan and Repair option from the list and select it. After the steps are done, the system will then start fixing the errors in the patch download, allowing players to finally enjoy the game unhindered once it's done.

Meanwhile, a lot of "Hearthstone" players might be in for a disappointment, especially those who main Warlocks or generally those players who have Yogg-Saron cards in their deck. After all, Blizzard has nerfed the card in the latest 6.1.3 update, according to Game Spot. In the patch, Yogg-Saron will no longer cast when it is destroyed, silenced, transformed, or returned to its owner's hand.

Aside from the highly-acclaimed card, Blizzard also made some changes to the Classic and Basic cards of the "Hearthstone" game. Some of the Shaman's cards have been taken and became more interesting, but at the same time, it was modified in such a way that battling against it will be less frustrating.

Regardless, the changes will be in effect on or before the upcoming "Hearthstone" Championship Tour's Last Call.
