This is getting REALLY boring and just plain out disappointing, blizzard really has a problem in the way that they try to cause "hype" about an expansion
That doesn't justify the very slow pace that we are seeing, id rather have more cards revealed by day and about 20 during the event instead of just seeing this turtlish reveals and have a whole bunch dumped on facebook after the event
This is what they did for both TGT and GVG. They do a few a day and then release a ton a few days before the expansion launches to build that final hype. If you don't like how they do it, then either tell them that on the Blizz forums, or stop paying so close attention so it feels like bigger reveals to you.
Also, they clearly know what they are doing as Hearhtstone is their most profitable game.

I assume they want to excite everyone with the card dump at the end to create more hype, but honestly I agree with you. Its boring waiting around so long only to get 2 cards per day. Especially when a lot of the cards shown so far haven't been too exciting.
I have actually been saying the same thing. I play a lot of MTG also and generally speaking, yes you do have a portion of the cards that are not that interesting to see that do come at the end but Blizzard is kind of taking the cake by revealing almost half of a set in one live stream after only giving us a few cards a day for 3+ weeks.
I dont understand if they are literally balancing these cards until the last second or if for some reason they feel they are better served by a large spoil at the end. In a lot of cases they could have thrown in an extra common on each of these spoils and have been fine even if the common isnt huge. Is it better to spoil less cards and make us think that for some reason the best is being hidden from us? I just dont understand their spoiling method as it seems very alien to me.
In the end, I will enjoy what I get but I dont understand why they are spoiling like all of the rarities at the same rate when there are so many more commons and rares.
No point in bitching when next Thursday there going to show around 20 cards and then dump the rest of the set the following weekend. Also from now until Wednesday we will see 4-8 cards.
Frankly, I wouldn't mind if they didn't announce any cards at all and simply let us discover them on launch day. I get the need to build hype but there's something to be said for a little secrecy, and it'd be kinda cool besides to see the meta squirm and accommodate all that in the days just after a release.
You think this is slow? My lord, y'all are incredibly entitled. Do you know what it's like being a member of the Pokemon fandom? We had a new game announced two months ago and have gotten nothing about it. We're hoping we'll get lucky enough to get a small handful next month, like 5 (3 starters + 2 cover legendaries). Them releasing just a single new Pokemon every few days would be heaven to us. And Hearthstone players are sitting here getting like a dozen cards every week and thinking they have it bad. You need to check yourself. XD

Final reveal in 1 week.
That doesn't justify the very slow pace that we are seeing, id rather have more cards revealed by day and about 20 during the event instead of just seeing this turtlish reveals and have a whole bunch dumped on facebook after the event
Every now and then I wonder, 'Is the Hearthstone community really as whiny and entitled as people make it out to be?'
Then threads like this come along and I realize yes, yes it is.
They could release no cards at all and make you wait.
The Nexus comes to the Inn with my set of Heroes of the Storm Legendaries!

The thing I'd like to see is some of the nerfs! Hope they roll those all out next week too.

I returned to this game much like how a recovering alcoholic can relapse.

Man kids these days, can't even be patient for 12 days
I bet you also hate the song "12 days of Christmas" because you don't get all 12 days worth of presents in a single day
Back in Naxxramas days we had to wait a FULL WEEK for a single card!

Wonder how pissed everyone would be if the release turned out to not be on the 26th
