    Wow Blizzard is really determined to push the Elemental Shaman theme huh... every single Shaman minion revealed so far is an Elemental.

    Viewed on its own merits, this card provides a lot of value for only 2-mana. 

    I think people are underrating this card because they are thinking of how crappy Healadin combo decks are. But as I see it, this is more of a control tool - it is basically the Paladin version of Arcane Artificer where you put it down and then use a healing effect to gain large amounts of health and stabilise yourself.

    They might as well go full meme and make the requirement 7 minions with 7 Health.  It's not going to make a difference to the playability of this card. Trash.

    Wonder what took them so long to print this Secret - it's one of the most obvious Paladin Secrets to not have been in the game.

    This is by far the worst money grab in the history of hearthstone and to top it all off people are not only buying this crap but also defending this "shit on your face" offer. Childish comments like "if you dont like it dont buy it" and "its only cosmetic" really indicate the immature mental state of players. 

    if i dont like it dont buy it. Are you kidding me? This is a digital game which is extremely competitive. If you dont have the right cards you might as well call quits cus you'll never be able to play in ranked mode. So i would very much like to buy it but never like this when giving into offers like this ruins the game for many others and reaffirm this bullshit marketing strategy.

    aAd for the people saying that warlock hero is cosmetic, that is true but its beside the point. Instead of offering you more card packs for 80 dollars they are giving you only a cosmetic items which for a large majority here (to my astonishment) is totally fine. So for 30 more dollars you get 30 more packs and NOTHING. 

    You are the reason, the gaming industry is in shit condition right now. Pre-ordering without even thinking. 

    You are the one not thinking straight. 80 packs for $80 is cheaper than what they normally go for ($69.99 for 60 packs). So the deal is still worth it even if you don't care about the hero skin at all.

    Calling this the "worst money grab in the history of Hearthstone" is just mindless hyberbole given that just two expansions ago pre-orders were going at $50 for 50 packs, and no one complained. Just because Blizzard gave us 70 packs for $50 one time that somehow becomes the bare minimum and anything less is a shameless cash grab? Geez, talk about entitlement.

     You expect people to expect cards to work as written? This is HS, unintuitive mechanics and cards that don't quite work as you'd expect are par for the course. it's getting better, but I still don't trust Blizz to not do something stupid in implementing this. How many years did it take for different cards setting manacosts to actually interact with discounts in the same way? How many years of "Battlecries always happen before secrets" being spouted whilst Jaraxxus gets hit by repentance (and is no longer a creature by the time the repentance hit, by the logic of the secrets triggering after battlecries)? How about secrets proccing off deaths of minions that died BEFORE the secret was in play? 

    I agree with you on how it's probably going to work, but reading the english on the cards doesn't always tell you how the card works.

    To be fair to Blizzard, you're referring to examples of specific card interactions. It is not possible to tell you through card text alone how that a card will act in a million of potential scenarios.

    But we're not talking about some esoteric interaction here - just a basic thing like how much a card would cost when played on turn 10. Give Blizzard more credit than that - if they had intended for the card to cost (10), they would have simply said so.

    Geez, what's with all these people asking if the card spends 10 mana? The card's text is quite clear - it gets +10 attack if you have 10 Mana Crystals. It doesn't say that the crystals have to be filled, nor does it say it costs (10) if you have 10 crystals.  Learn to read English for goodness' sake.

    OP should stop whining and realise that the existence of players willing to pay $80 for a purely cosmetic hero skin is what keeps this game free for other players. 

    Also, did you forget that hero skins started out being $9.99 each? This is actually much cheaper considering that 80 packs would usually cost more than $80. You are basically getting the hero skin for free for buying in bulk. 

    The fact that Blizzard gave out other hero skins for free in the past is completely irrelevant. They are entitled to mix it up and offer some for free and some only to paying players.  You should be grateful that that they are even offering any hero skins for free at all. Again, hero skins have no effect on gameplay and should be seen as a bonus.
