Celebrating 20 Years of StarCraft - Upcoming Tavern Brawl to Reward 3 Kobolds Packs
All of Blizzard's titles are celebrating the 20th anniversary of the StarCraft franchise throughout the month by giving away goodies.
Hearthstone is included in the celebration through a special Tavern Brawl though unlike the Diablo 20th Anniversary Brawl that we saw last year, there will not be a card back reward and instead, players who participate will receive 3 Kobolds card packs. The Tavern Brawl will run near the end of the month from March 21 until March 25.
Do you have any idea what the brawl could be?
Other Goodies
All of Blizzard's games will be getting something for the anniversary. Here's the breakdown!
- Brood War - 20th Anniversary UI Skin for Remastered.
- StarCraft II - 20th Anniversary UI Skins, Portraits, and Decal.
- Diablo III - Battlecruiser Pet.
- Overwatch - Widowmaker Skin ft. Sarah Kerrigan as the Ghost.
- World of Warcraft - Salute to StarCraft Feat of Strength if you /salute an in-game StarCraft pet.
- Heroes of the Storm - 20th Anniversary StarCraft portraits.
Starcraft is amazing but for the love of God I wish Blizzard would make... WARCRAFT IV!!!
Call me weird, but I don't really like any of the cardbacks, so I'm still waiting for a good one.
A cardback for me is worth more than 20 packs. I wish they change their (over)mind and make a cardback for this event.
Not me. Cardback is just for cosmetics.
You may be right, but, looking at your achievements, you may be an "old" player who has only few cards left to full collection, unless you already have it. Many players nowadays are new or few-years-player, who don't have full collection and don't want to spend money to buy packs, so they usually don't care about cardbacks, but I think they want to get 3 packs much more than another cardback.
I, as a 3-year-long player, would rather get some packs, from which i could drop new legendary then card back. I still play on default card back, because I don't mind if my opponent thinks I was in legend, beat Cow King or won Dungeon Run with all 9 classes.
I absolutely understand your perspective but all other games will have a permanent cosmethic reward for this event. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining to open free packs :) and you are right that I'm an old player :)
Well, if I'am playling with starcraft so I'am get 3 cobolds pack?
I hope it will be cooperative brawl.
Reminds me of my first brawl in 2016 fighting Nefarian. Card text said he would win if he deafeted any players, so I thought I had to kill my opponent before him (wouldn't really violate the card text). So I managed to kill him by fatigue and died myself..
Just an idea for Blizzard. Next expansion is few weeks away, probably early April so instead of 3 Kobolds pack they could give us 3 of next expansion packs (openable after the expansion launches)
Sounds good, but it means less money for them. I mean, yeah, they do it sometimes, we appreciate it, but you cant expect them to do it all the time. And i guess they may give us some packs anyway later
Wont complain about free packs. More dust for the next expansion.
Nice, it is always good when you receive some bonuses. And it always feel good to open free packs.
The only thing that I don't like in such moments, that this bonuses are too small still and actually this will not change them to not look as a Greedy company trying to get all our money. Like when ranked was broken, everyone though that blizzard disable it, because they want us to spend money in brawl (ye, I know that is stupid, but some people truly believe it). I wish that they will show us their more generous side in the year of the raven and community will stop to wine so much about HS.
Yes, while ranked was broken I've earned ~1,5k gold(not counting packs\dust\golden cards) in that tavern brawl, damn you greedy blizzard for making me play it!!11
The Diablo card back is one of my favorites. I am a little disappointed there won't be a StarCraft card back to mirror it.
2 packs >>>>>>>>>>> any card back in the world.
There is already a Starcraft cardback in the game, it's from the collector's edition of the Starcraft 2: Legacy of the Void expansion. I guess you could use that during the 20th anniversary event if you have it.
If I am not mistaken there was StarCraft cardBack. It had movable stars in the space in it. Looked pretty cool. Search your collection for it
World of warcraft armor looks awesome!... Oh, you won't get that armor as a reward... well, good pets!..... oh, you won't get these pets too..... well, at least you'll get an achievement....
