Quote from Blizzard

Goblins vs Gnomes Cards

Can we summon legendaries from a random class from Sneed's Old Shredder's deathrattle ?
Yes! Though best case is Kel'Thuzad [It will re-summon Sneed!] ;-) - Ben Brode (Source 1/Source 2)

Can Sneed's Old Shredder can summon Mr Bigglesworth?:D
Only collectible legendaries - Ben Brode (Source)

Why are they called "Mechs" and not mechanical like in WoW/WC3? To keep it short?
Yep, and it sounds cool! - Ben Brode (Source)

Commanding Shout + Bouncing Blade when you have 2 Armorsmiths and your foe has no minions...what happens?
Stops when all your minions have 1 Health - Ben Brode (Source)

Silly question: Do classes without weapon get a 'random weapon' from Blingtron 3000? Does it feel scary to change the game so much?
Yep! It's awesome! :) - Ben Brode (Source)

Will any current cards (like Harvest Golem) be changed to mechs?
Yep! - Ben Brode (Source)

Goblins vs Gnomes Misc

Have you considered renaming the 'Expert' card set to 'Classic' ?
We actually already did in the expansion :) - Ben Brode (Source)

Do we know how much goblins vs gnomes will cost?
Same as classic packs [100 Gold] - Ben Brode (Source)

Are you TRYING to lean towards a more RNG type game? Or do you expect most of the neutral RNG cards to be in more "fun" decks?
Randomness does a lot of good for the game! That said there are tons of cards that are not random yet to be announced. Good mix. - Ben Brode (Source)

Is it me, or do the Mech type minions from GVG remind me of Murloc? Aggro, synergize
They actually play pretty different. Less swarmy.
Aren't most of them buffed by mechs? Seem meant to be played swarmy
A lot of the cards care about having 1 mech, not as many as you can fit.
And I understand some randomness is fun and adds to a game but there is a fine line that shouldn't crossed.
We have plenty of non-random cards too! And many random effects are easily controlled. I.e. kodo vs a single minion. (Source)

Arena

Mr. Woo never said whether you could get the new card pack from Arena. Is it possible?
yes. That's all that comes from arena. No more classic packs as rewards. - Ben Brode (Source)

How about having the option to choose which packs you get from arenas it would be better for new players.
Much more complicated. New players definitely will want the shiny new packs. - Ben Brode (Source)

Arena only rewarding GvG packs is odd. Why not reward a chit to allow players to choose GvG or Expert pack? Not new player friendly
Lots of UI for that, figured players would want the shiny new stuff - Ben Brode (Source)

Will single card rewards be from 'classic' or GvG, or will they be only from classic?
I believe both - Ben Brode (Source)

Spectator Mode

Reg. spectator mode: I assume you can only see both hands in friendly games? (To prevent cheating shenanigans.)
You have to be friends with both players and have permission to spectate both hands. - Yong Woo (Source)
