I don't own an Apple device and I'm conflicted about purchasing Khadgar for a few reasons:
1) I don't want to justify Blizzard's decision to make this an exclusive by giving them the money
2) I don't really think spending money on Hero portraits is worth it, I buy enough packs each expansion already. Although this one is much cheaper so I may get it.
3) But since it's time-limited I don't want to miss out. Maybe one day I will want the skin but won't be able to buy it.
If it wasn't time gated I'd have no issue waiting until I'd decided. But since it isn't I feel rushed to make the impulse purchase.
Oh my god do you guys read the announcements? Blizz doesn't get any benefit from this Hero (maybe like a few bucks discount for tax issues since it has been made for charity reasons). All money is going to WWE and by not purchasing this hero you are just showing that you don't save the planet and not the animals. I mean it is nice that Blizz shows they care for charity stuff like the animals etc. In fact this event has been made in cooperation with Apple and WWE and they asked Blizz if they could do it together with Blizzards Hearthstone game since they can see a lot of potential to get money for charity. If you want to complain about something, then don't complain about Blizzard nor about Apple or WWE. Complain about Samsung (android) for not giving Hearthstone any credit to get some charity...
I just got him, he is a really cool guy! money are for a good purpose after all, and 5 euro is a reasonable price.. If the other heroes where in this price as well I would have taken the warrior one probably.. I don't mind the card back at all

I would like to know how buy giving money to WWE we save the animals, I mean ok the wrestlers eat a lot of meat but I still dont get it... Kappa
But neither do I have an iphone, nor do I have any friend/enemy or anyone that has an iphone. And as long as its iOS specific, the planet won't be able to get my money, then animals will die, the poor will starve, the thirst will take lives. GG blizzard and apple for hurting the planet because making it an iOS only.
This is why I am fed up with these complaints...go ask Samsung if they can do a similar charity event. Start a petition or whatever to do so. WWE asked Apple and Apple asked Blizzard so no reason to make any marketing benefits to samsung. Blizz could release it for android as well but since there is no reason, they don'thave to. This one is perfectly fine and Blizz didn't discriminate any people (neither Apple). Ask WWE to do the same with Samsung/whatever smartphone you use or ask Samsung or whatever directly to do the same.
finally got it ( with a little help of my friends) Now i only need to confront ingame to a Warlock o Warrior orc that deploys Deadthwing and polymorph it to may the thing i couldnt make 20 years ago in WC2 :)
I own and ipad and I just bought it. I totally don't care for cosmestic differences in games and I haven't bought any of the other 3 paid portraits (I spent around 12 hours in WoW for the first time to get Lyiadrin, though), but I got it because I can, it's reasonably cheaper than the others, the money goes to charity, and it's exclusive and time-limited.

I'm getting it soon because I managed to get a hold of a friend that has an ipad but still what pisses me off about this is that these exclusive cool Dlc/skins/etc are usually IOS and most of us have to shit ourselves to get it because not everyone has an IOS device, on the contrary those who have iphones or ipads can easily get this kind of stuff if an androud exclusive promo comes out. Gotta love capitalism, appart from the wwe/wwf hulk hogan or whatever this is still a very capitalist promotion And the "best " thing about it is IoS devices are in nothing superior to others, in fact, they are kind of shit.
Blizzard didn't really have a say in the matter.... at least not unless they don't do this. You do realize this is sponsored by Apple, right?

Nope.

Make the Card: The biggest thread on the site!
My mandibles which are capable of pressing down and tearing, my talons which are known to intercept and hold.
Just remember the good times!
keep getting the "waitinf for authorisation" error, anyone got it too?
Can we buy it from mac ?
meh, i just changed my handphone to samsung. =( need to hunt around for other friends who have iPhones to buy it.
I have an issue, I cannot buy it from Macbook. Anyone having similar issue?
Can anyone recommend an iOS emulator or something that I can use to purchase the new hero on a PC? I have no iOS device :(.
I don't know how would this work, as you need an apple ID to make purchases
even if you guys find a working emulator, this would be the barrier for reaching your goal.
I bought the hero, but not really because he's awesome. I liked the idea and I bought an Iphone recently.
It doesn't have a cardback, portrait looks choppy, etc. It's not as refined as the other 3 released alt heroes.
Hero power seems more awesome than the other two tough :X

Feel free to PM me for help or advice.

im happy
I would definitely buy this....but since it doesn't seem to include a card back, I won't be.
I'm sure Blizz releases to general public later on. Kind of a "first dibs" promo with Apple for now, I would guess. i could be wrong too

That is the exact, literally exact same thing I did.... Illuminati!
