I don't foresee any real issues this time around, at least for those who preordered. The store will likely crash and lag out, but that won't matter to me because I already have my packs waiting.
Why are people so excited about Chillmaw? I really don't get it.
Gives you a solid reason to run dragons. If you're already running a couple big dragons like Alex or Ysera it won't be too hard to get value from it. Also this card plays mind games with your opponent, when you drop it they're going to assume that it's going to trigger, or just take the risk and kill it. Even if you don't have a dragon your opponent will have to play around it as though you do, or face the consequences of the deathrattle.
I'm personally excited for a lot of the cards. The naysayers for this expansion will be proven wrong soon enough. That being said, really looking forward to trying SjoW's dragon warrior deck.
You walk into the Inn for free, you tell the Inn Keeper you want to play but don't have any cards. He grabs a pile of welfare cards from behind the bar and lets you play for free with a chance to win gold. You lose and complain that your cards are shit and people who spend money are stupid. Everyone in the Inn laughs at you.
I wouldn't complain about the chance to choose from Tavern Brawl, but I think arena is different. You pay gold to play it, basically you buy a pack and pay 50 gold for the arena run. Now if that is random, you only have a 1/3 chance to get the pack you want.
If it is better to still play arena or buy packs depends on your arena average and the amount of TGT cards you already have at the time of decision. I will definitely start grinding arena again after the first big opening.
You have a 1/3 chance to get the pack you want when previously you had no choice at all.
Seriously though, who designed that Hunter deck? It's so poorly made, I think a basic hunter deck is better than that one. It's so unfair it has no 1 cost minions, but then it has that Elephant 3/2 that is really bad, other than that you are just sitting there praying your mage opponent got a crappy hand so you can stall until turn 5 and a up to actually start dropping good minions, if not, well, Well played because the mage is gonna have a bunch of buffed up inspired guys by turn 5.
Don't even get me started on that Legendary 4/2 Acidmaw... Wow, just wow.
Maybe you just suck at the game? I played 4 with hunter and didn't lose once. Also, Acidmaw + Unleash the Hounds is a great board clear.

You do realize that a meta doesn't instantly create itself 2 hours after an expansion launch, right? Or are you actually that stupid?

I'll probably dust my Eadric the Pure, already got Varian Wrynn and crafted Chillmaw. Holding onto my dust for now.

Maybe not in Europe... I'm by no means rich and make that in 2 and a half hours.

Because in a game where welfare collecting lowlifes can play for free, they expect even more handouts.

Yep, I think you should have to pay at least something to play Hearthstone. No one would miss the ungrateful scrubs and their f2p face decks.

No free packs for f2p leaches, thanks Blizzard. :)

On no, someone might actually have to spend time or money to earn something! How awful.

Archiving this thread to laugh at all of you in 2 months when the new meta has stabilized.
