Prior to the Tavern Pass Rogue only had 2... so they've more than doubled it this year alone.

Very poor communication by both streamers and Blizzard - Blizzard gives next to no info and seem to leave it up to streamers to decide how to give these bundles away. Avelline at least had no info in her channel about it and was annoyed by people constantly asking about the giveaway, which, frankly was the only reason most were there.

How many free legendaries have we received that new players haven't? Snip Snap, Archmage Vargoth, not to mention the recent legendary quests we got that reward packs and increased gold and dust. I'm happy that they seem to be wanting to bring in new players - and based on their recent actions I don't believe veteran players are going to be left behind, I'm sure they have more rewards for all players in the pipeline.

Looks like they HoF'd Spellbreaker due to the influx of deathrattle legendaries they are introducing.

Opened Chameleos and War master Voone (which is OK, I was experimenting with Dragon Warrior anyway).

If you feel like you have to buy everything this company produces but you cannot afford to, that is very much a YOU problem.

Blizzard's (any company's) only reason for existing is to produce products and sell them. It is the consumer's job to exercise restraint and not buy every car on the sales lot, every candy bar in the checkout display, every stick of furniture at Ikea.

And no, you can't hide behind "compulsiveness" as a defense. If you truly have a personality disorder, it's up to you to stay away from things that trigger it. It is not some random company's job to babysit your mental problems.

The idea that Blizzard is doing something wrong by offering merchandise to the public is the dumbest idea that keeps reappearing on these forums.

 Some spicy replies here. Very detailed analysis we have going on.

If you're going to bother posting, why not explain why you think "no" instead of just trying to look like some cool person who is walking away from an explosion without looking at it.

 Because, much like that burning building in the background, it's such a terrible idea that it does not warrant discussion.

no

They make sets way in advance. People have been talking about Overload being a bad mechanic since forever, and most of what's really good in this set has been done to make Overload as viable a mechanic as possible.

Did they overdo it?

Yes, probably.

But the thing about a new set is, it changes EVERYTHING. it takes a few weeks for people to really try everything out (and I think there are good decks from THIS meta that are either getting held back by overtuned cards or just haven't really been figured out yet). I think there's a lot of efficient healing in this set that comes with a pretty significant deal of combo, as well as flexible healing and armor gain cards (some of them with tradeable) that are going to make aggro decks really sad. At least ideally... hopefully.

Sure this Seems Real Kappa.

I mean, 2 years of work went into gathering evidence. At the very least, something happened o much that the state thought this was worth pursuing, and now it's up to the legal teams to worm through the semantics and try to hash out technicalities and hairsplitting to either pin this on Blizzard or absolve them of at least some of the accusations.

I think it's safe to put your starting place in this little journey at "guilty, but of how much?"

Also, for me, "how much" is a great point to make when pouring a glass of water, not when it comes to sexual harassment, inequality, and fostering an environment that seems to have led to the suicide of a woman employed by Blizzard (who died while on a work trip with a male higher-up). Some bets are safe bets, and I'm betting these women didn't manufacture these accounts and attach themselves to a lawsuit that will unquestionably demonize them before the trial even starts in the eyes of many gamers just because they wanted a payout. This stuff is a problem in the gaming community as a whole and can't possibly come as a surprise, seeing how they've handled smaller-scale issues of the same base nature.

A women was sexually harassed to death

Half of the comments: "My cArD wAS Not ReVeaLED" :((.

This isn't a "he said, she said" thing. This is the fruit of a 2-year investigation. I would think that is plenty of evidence to decide it isn't worth associating with Blizz for 1 day. 

TIL that not wanting women to be harassed/molested is politics and virtue signaling

This isn't a single accuser who claimed something happened.  This is a state who did the investigation first over two years and then went to court.  They don't take things things to court unless they know they will win.
