EU - Free Card Packs for Downtime
Due to server issues in Europe last week, all accounts in the EU region created before May 3, 2015 are receiving 2 classic card packs.
It may take up to 24 hours before you get your packs.
Quote from BlizzardWe know access to Hearthstone in Europe was spotty last week. Sorry about that, and we really appreciate your patience as we worked to get the tavern back into shape.
As a thank-you for bearing with us, ALL Hearthstone accounts in the European Hearthstone region created prior to May 3, 2015 will enjoy two free Classic Hearthstone card packs, free of charge.
Just log in to Hearthstone at your convenience to find your card packs in the “Open Packs” section. No need to rush; these packs never expire.
Note: It may take up to 24 hours before your packs will appear.
Challengestone #1 - VoDs and Decklists
The guys at Tempo Storm have uploaded all the videos from this weekend's Challengestone to their Youtube channel. If you missed some games or want to rewatch the awesomeness, check out the videos below.
Challengestone was a unique event in which players were given a deckbuilding challenge and had 20 minutes to prepare 3 decks for the event. The theme for Challengestone #1 was "Odds and Evens" which meant you could only add creatures to your deck with an odd-number attack, and Spells had to have an even mana-cost. Weapons were allowed regardless.

Posted May 20, 2015 (Blackrock Launch)Very interesting to take a look at these ChallengeStone decks. I hadn't heard of anything like that before. Sounds like a really fun twist to add to a tourney.

Posted May 13, 2015 (Blackrock Launch)Joke's on you! No one needs Classic packs ;D
I'm on the US client, but man that kinda sucks for people who have all the Classic cards. Should really be offering you guys GvG.

Posted May 13, 2015 (Blackrock Launch)Well, if they were being completely fair, they'd give us 200 gold to spend on what we want - I for example would spend it on 2 classic packs, as I don't have all the cards. They could even implement some sort of 'card pack token' that allows you to purchase one card pack of your choice (nudge nudge wink wink seriously use this for arena pls).

Posted May 12, 2015 (Blackrock Launch)The 'silly' rules weren't to keep it competitive. They were to challenge people to create interesting decks, using cards you might not normally see. There are still plenty of competitive tournaments without these additional rules.

Posted May 12, 2015 (Blackrock Launch)I wonder if the EU problem is related to the NA BattleNet being serviced today?
