Something like this should've been put in as early as BWL for Vael, or Naxx for Patchwerk at the latest. When you're constantly introducing fights that ask you to manage threat well, such as Gruul or Void Reaver, why is the community still relying on estimates and guesswork. Very accurate estimates and guesswork with a solid basis, to be sure, but guesswork nonetheless.
