I don't think you can use "core" cards in classic mode and the whole point with the deal was to get a minion for that specific format. That Al'akir is garbage in classic is another thing. Sorry about your loss...
its not a complete "nothing" since the core cards wont stay in your collection forever. next year, you will lose the core copy but you will still have the legendary that you got there
I’m mistaken. I do indeed have two copies, one core card and one Classic card. I only looked in Standard to see if there were two copies and there weren’t, so I assumed I didn’t get one. My bad........
The core set and the classic set aren't the same. You can't use any classic cards in Standard, but many of the core set cards are identical to the ones in the classic set. Likewise, you can't use any of the core set in classic game mode. I'm sure there are similar restrictions when it comes to duels, but I'm not sure which sets apply there atm.

There are a lot of things that annoy me about HS, but this is the worst I’ve encountered.
On a whim, decided to by the Random Classic Legendary for $4.99.
Got Al’Akir the Windlord.
A core card.
So I already had this card.
Did I now have two in my inventory, one which I could dust ( but it’s a core card anyways?)
Of course not.
Result: spent $4.99 and got absolutely nothing.
Advice: Don’t buy Random Classic Legendary.

Al'Akir is one of the coolest legendaries
I can attest to this. Except I bought 1 Classic, and 4 Wild random legendaries. Every single one was a core card except for 1 Sylvanas Windrunnder.
Yes you can dust one of the 2 copies. If you go to your collection and use 'Legacy Set' as a filter you will be able to dust the one you just got.
