Golden Classic Pack Coming Next Month for Twitch Prime
WHOOOOAA! Twitch Prime members will be receiving more loot next month for Hearthstone.
- The Golden Classic Pack contains 5 golden cards!
- The pack will be available from Nov 6 until Jan 9.
- The golden pack will not follow any pity timer rules.
- If you haven't yet gotten your Oktoberbrawl card backs through Twitch Prime, you have until October 10.
Quote from BlizzardIf you’re not already taking part in the Oktoberbrawl, get in there! Twitch Primemembers are already enjoying two fancy new card backs and battling to help their chosen team achieve victory!
There’s more precious plunder coming for Prime members! From Nov. 8 - Jan. 9 PST, Twitch Prime members will find a gleaming Golden Classic Card Pack* waiting for them in Prime Loot. Every card in this special card pack will be golden! Harth’s gonna lose his mind when you open this one!
If you don’t have Twitch Prime yet, you can link your Amazon Prime account to your Twitch account. No Amazon Prime account? No worries, just sign up for a free trial!
Of course, you'll also get all the other benefits that come with Prime—including special Prime Loot for Hearthstone and other Blizzard games!
*Offer valid only in regions where Twitch Prime is available. Must own Hearthstone to redeem. Golden Card pack contains Classic cards. These packs use the new pack opening rules regarding duplication protection, but will otherwise have an independent chance of containing Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary cards unrelated to any special rules (such as a guaranteed Legendary within 10 packs) nor other Hearthstone Sets, including Classic. Each Blizzard account may only redeem one code per promotional item.
as long as you have the money in the bank for the payment. they will cut you off if you don't have enough to pay for it. just make sure you have the amount twitch prime costs in your bank to avoid this (this is exactly what just happened to me... on the bright side I can pay money into my bank, and start up my trial again once these cards roll out though I think)
after around 48 hours they check to see if a payment is possible, if not you get your service suspended you have money to cover the first instalment if you go over without cancellation.
I haven't touched a credit card ever and got Amazon Prime without any problem. Also dunno why this should be blizzards fault.
Why talk of blizzard not adding additional payments? That's just pointless bashing...
So if I start the free month trial on Twitch Prime tomorrow (8 October), I can get both card backs and golden pack, right? Am I wrong?
Finally great use for twitch prime am so glad that i didnt take cardbacks :D
You could have both the card backs and the golden pack
I'm sure he meant using the free trial, which you can only do once. I unfortunately used mine to get the card backs...
why do they always make these things a tie-in to things you have to pay for?
I'm so sick of having to "sign-up here for extra packs" or "buy this thing to get THIS thing in this game!". Why can't we just play the game, and have the add-on stuff actually be related to in-game stuff?
So there is no advantage in having 5 golden cards? Ok, I see, you have lost your brain.
5 golden classic cards are something like 300 dust maybe a little bit more if you are lucky. Sorry, but 300 dust really doesnt make any difference.
No there isn't. Golden cards are no different than their non-golden counterparts. Yay you get some free dust. That in no way gives you a competitive advantage.
It's called cross over promotion. Wonder why people are so fucking toxic about this. I am sick of entitled people who play a free to play game that has constant and tremondous support and they still bitch about every little shit. Grow the fuck up or play something else if you are "sick" of this or that.
Since i really like golden cards, I would actually welcome it if Blizzard was selling these packs (of course for much higher price than normal packs).
Only a matter of time Imo, depending on how these sell out. I'm fairly convinced its a test run and over the next year or so I would imagine it would be added to the shop as you mentioned "For a much higher price".
Am I the only one who thinks needing to support Blizzard "business partners" in order to get exclusive Blizzard products is <expletive deleted>? Why is this (and the various other things like Tyrande) not available to regular Hearthstoners? Honestly, I tried playing WoW to level 20 and it was worse than the pre-nerf meta - I gave up around level 10 because the game was mind-numbing and a new hero portrait simply wasn't worth the effort. Now we get something for a small section of the community who happen to live in one of a select group of countries - such inclusivity!
What's wrong with having things that everyone can enjoy?
there are many posts about getting the loots even if you live not in the country, proxy etc.
That's not bad,but I expected something more special..I mean in other games you get legendary items or "bigger" loot and all we get in hearthstone is a golden pack?What are the chances of opening a legendary card(pity timer doesn't count) and actually getting value off this pack?I would prefer a guaranteed legendary or a special card back/class skin included than golden cards and I think most people would too...well,it's free and dust is good,but it is underwhelming!
Well, as far as I understand, legendary items in Overwatch are purely cosmetic. It therefore makes sense to make the reward for Hearthstone a mainly cosmetic one as well.
