It certainly seems like 5.X will repeat 3.X for healers >_>

Ast 3.0 undertuned ->3.08 healing buffed -> 3.2 cards buffed to be reasonably balanced to other healers (currently the most balanced we ever got as healers) -> 3.4 unasked overbuffs that break the balance literally -> 4.X we not adding new healer because we need to balance existing 3.

History is repeating just hope it stops at a sweet spot this time (it won't but here is hoping).
