Thanks
Are you saying that the adventure includes a golden legendary? Where did you get the info? Does it matter if it's bought with gold or money? Thanks!
Just a small detail : shouldn't it be "A random golden Legendary from Rise of Shadows" for the mega bundle?
I meant to write it aswell but i found out you were faster...Btw, thats a HUGE detail,not a small...
How long until we can build decks with new cards on this website?
Does anyone know if there will be a card reveal schedule?
The official site has similar (currently empty) slots that had the card reveal times last expansion so I'd expect there will be one.
As for OLD mechanics return I think theres a good chance inspire will return at least for mage (due to the hero power cards from last expansion)
Also makes sense that the dalaran defenders would inspire each other to improve their defence against the league
Not free Legendary Class this time?
There is a free legendary however its not said whether it'll be a class legendary or if it can be a neutral legendary but since mist expansions have like 2 or 3 horrible neutral legendarys that are just for memes and concerning what they've done in the past it'll probably be a class legendary
I am so happy ODD and EVEN are going to wild.
As a Wild player, I am tempted to try Standard again, with all the powerful cards that are rotating out. Especially those two.
As a Wild player, I'm NOT happy at all that Genn and Baku are staying in Wild.
But we are always used as Blizz's dumpster of cards so nvm, I'm kinda alright.
why would you cry if you have Justicar Trueheart which has no penalties and been there like 2 years or so??
Cry is a strong word, it's more of a VERY mild annoyance for me if anything. Frankly I'm just more excited for there to be a huge difference between the two formats. Also, Baku the Mooneater and Genn Greymane are much more restrictive to both deck design for players and card design for the developers than Justicar Trueheart, and in the year that I've been playing wild I have never seen Justicar played even one time, and Baku and Genn played hundreds if not thousands of times.
Because Genn and Baku offer something that no other cards in Hearthstone can: 100% consistensy. With Justicar, you had to draw it, then play a terribley stated minion for 6 mana. With Genn and Baku, you get the effect 100% of the time without fail, on turn one, and don't ever have to play the crappy minion stats to get their value.
One man's trash is another man's Ragnaros.
ok i see i get downvoted :D no more questions guys, do whatever you want
When you hover over the Shadows drop down menu you still get Rastakhan links, just letting you know in case it isn't just a place holder while you set things up.
Was about to post just this, glad someone else noticed and said something
