Although you can't make use of this offer for Un'Goro packs yet, you can collect cards on the cheap from expansions by using Amazon Coins.

So go buy some Amazon Coins at a discount to get cheaper packs! You can save your coins for the Un'Goro launch or spend them on older packs now. With The Grand Tournament rotating out soon, you can use this as an opportunity to get those packs to finish your collection one last time. Be sure to visit our guide to learn more about Amazon Coins.
You can't really control the leaks, because people are just so hungry to spoils things.
And lastly, wasn't Ben Brode's rap enough for you?
This expansion is going to be the beast one yet for sure, I can tell blizzard put a lot of taunt into making more control decks viable.
Taunt=Cheat! Me go Face! xDD
FFS where are the netural healing cards? Only one "good" neutral taunt? Where is the AoE to replace Dark Iron Skulker? RIP Rogue. They gave AoEs to the three classes that did not need one: Mage, Warlock, Shaman. Good luck surviving against Murlocs everyone else. Priest drawing from your deck makes you just play the pray-they-don't-have-it game so much more than ever. All new Shaman cards are pretty insane. Primordial Glyph? Really? Like Mages needed more cheap spell generators. Did Blizzard not learn a thing from pavel-sports memes? Glyph is so much better than Unstable Portal, and most of us can remember portal being pretty fucking good. Meteor is bonkers insane, and constructed and especially Arena will suffer for it. Every class save warrior have highly desirable legendaries and epics on top of the mandatory epic Gluttonous Ooze. This expansion is so jammed full of power creep, and poor balancing. The greed is real boy-o's~
So Meteor is insane, and King Mosh is undesirable? I'd love to know what's going on in that twisted head of yours.
@crashb4
LOL. I guess you've never tried to make your own Rogue deck before then. Dark Iron Skulker is one of two Rogue AoEs atm. With it gone, the only one left is Fan of Knives. Try playing that against Zoo. The only reason you don't see much of Dark Iron Skulker is that there hasn't been a viable Rogue deck on ladder except for miracle. This is partially due to the lack of healing and taunts for the class. As a side note, I wish Miracle Rogue the best luck trying to get through all these high health taunts recently released.
Primordial Glyph is a much better version of Babbling Book if you did not notice. Seriously, what would you rather have? A 1/1 "board presence" and a random mage spell for one mana or a DISCOVERED mage spell that cost two less for two mana? Babbling Book, I believe was a card that was played in the Blizzcon Finals. I might have been mistaken. Oh well, no one believe me when I said Babbling Book was a great card either.~
Meteor is insane. You shouldn't judge a card base on whether it can go face or not. Climb out of that dated tempo/freeze mage mindset you have. Blizzard is pushing the control meta hard this time. Most classes save Rogue and Warlock (RIP) have a new way of gaining a large amount or life and tempo at the same time. An overwhelming board control card is probably much more valuable than face damage, and Meteor's value as a control card is through the roof. And no @dark4t3ss, Noggenfogger will not allow this card to randomly hit face. The targeting restriction of the card still applies when choosing random targets.
Gluttonous Ooze is good just like how Harrison Jones is good as an one of in control decks in earlier metas. Many good classes still carry weapons. Paladins have Truesilver Champion and Ashbringer. Shaman have Jade Claws. Warriors will always pack weapons. The new Sulfuras is likely to see a good amount of play. Lord Jaraxxus may make a comeback if the meta is heading towards control. Rogue LOL. Sad to see Pirate Warrior is the only thing you associate with weapons now.
One last item I need to address: RIP new player experience.
EDIT: @Magikurp, a nine mana board clear that require board preparation is too slow and clunky. King Mosh is not diserable. It is practically at the same level as DOOM! maybe even less.
The end of "no duplicates" mechanic for now.
Amazing extension
Sounds like a good idea, but that sounds like a too specific circumstance. And honestly it would feel kind of counter-intuitive to have an adapt counter an adapt.

Please give up and leave.
So where exactly is the massive, purple, Tyrannosaur-looking dino card you literally see everywhere? On the client, on Hearthpwn, I think even in the cinematic. He even has an HS mark graphed onto his side.
It's just promo art, nobody said it would be a card.
I think the Raptor Patriarch is the closest we got to actually having that big purple dinosaur. Granted, it's not the same art but in the cinematic it plays well with the theme (and art) of Raptor Hatchling. Speaking of Raptor Patriarch, shouldn't it be in the "Tokens" area on the guide?
Edit: I realized you were talking about a different purple dinosaur. I don't know what that one is specifically. Sorry :<.
it should replace the art on Tyrantus
I am glad they did not add Barney.
I gues a lot of art didn't make in the final version.
In the Art blog where the artist were talking about the concept art and stuff, they mentioned how Elisa's scouts were going to look like and how they thought it would be a good idea to have theri scout badges sown on their shoulderpads, but there's only one Scout card in the whole set, and it doesn't evne have shoulderpad visible.
Also, the mascot for Gadgetzan was Worgen Greaser, so I guess it's for the best they didn't make the giant purple T-rex into some shitty filler card.
