So here’s my take on Tyrande coming free to all players:
I should state that I do already own Tyrande from her initial debut way back when. Now, it sure as hell wasn’t surprising that she was coming back completely free to everyone who owns Hearthstone so long as they are competent enough to use a mouse. This I am 100% ok with. In fact I’m really happy that new players have a chance to get a really awesome hero. Despite this though, I was unfortunately unsurprised but certainly disappointed that there was no nod to players who got her initially.
To elaborate, the players who have the hero are relative veterans to the game who were proactive and jumped on the promotion when it first came about. I certainly don’t need to have a special hero but I think there should be some reward or nod to these players. I personally think Sylvanas should come free to players who already own Tyrande. This way everyone gets a new and awesome hero for free without creating any more heroes that only certain people can get.
But I’m just a biased Hunter main ;)
That’s my take at least and I’d love to hear if you agree/disagree or have other suggestions for rewarding people who already had Tyrande.
Reward for what - living in country that Blizzard gives sh... , I mean cares about. Cause the problem with Tyrande is that some people had to use VPN (which at the time was mostly paid-only service with limited access to trials) to be able to get amazon prime, which if I remember correctly was the only way of obtaining her.
Tyrande was a mistake. Excluding people that live in certain countries is NOT right. I tried to do the trick a day late and Amazon had got wind of it by that time, so I'm no less "honoured veteran". So if Blizzard should offer anything to you and us, it should be a fucking "sorry guys we were stupid with this hero and Khadgar, we won't be in the future, here get them free along 3 packs" or something.
Edit: The we screwed up part is more important to me than the freebies by the way.
When they gave Tyrande, for the first time, i asked random guy in Twitch chat, that bought Twitch Prime subscription, if i can have her, he said yes and gave her to me.
Excluding people from a hero portrait, because they didnt play or for other reasons couldnt get her, thats stupid. And now you want to reward the exclusive ones with Sylvanas, and exlude others from her.. *facepalm*

I got her even though my country wasn’t supported. Didn’t use vpn either. You just had to use address located in the usa :)
I didn’t realize it was US or NA exclusive. Interesting, yeah I don’t know, HS is kinda unplayable competitively anyway. I’m an arena bitch and hunter ain’t good but who knows with the next rotation.

Stupid post right there... thousands of players who were eligible that didn’t get her will have a second chance.
I agree this is a slap in the face to people who originally got it for a limited time in 2016 thinking it was going to be rare and never return. To return it to the store for free is very upsetting. And not giving anything to people who owned it from 2016 is incredibly insulting on Blizzards part. Sylvanas should be free to people who owned Tyrande from 2016. I would still be upset even if Sylvanas was free. What's next they are going to offer monthly card backs that are thought to be unattainable again for a price? I spend a lot of money on this game to have everything and now they are giving it away free. Thanks Blizzard.

Piss off, you had her exclusive for three years. That was your reward. And they have always said that it was going to come back, so you're lying too.

Yes, I`d love if they did this as well. Any nod for veterans really, Can we at least have a few DoD packs?
