"It's not a feature, it's a bug."
Aside from the UI elements, I think Blizzard could have just rolled with the "Surprise!"-version, and (almost) nobody would have said anything. I actually thought the Scholomance packs were a cool, last minute idea of some dev to hand out some promo packs before the expansion launches.
Even if you were planning on getting AoO packs, you can spend the gold on AoO that you just saved with free SA packs, and to those people who are done with AoO (by their own definition), this is the nicer reward.
As far as I'm concerned, they might as well keep it that way moving forward. Raises motivation for the last season before a new expansion.

Harrison Jones combo with Weapons Project, Shield Block, and Kronx Dragonhoof half the time. You literally are wrong.

Amber Watcher vs Antique Healbot

Havent tried it yet but doesnt that make it a 4/4 * 7 = 28/28?
1/1 get one buff of the +3/+3 to become 4/4.
--edit: it's 28/28 =)

Like the deck. Dont like the guide - sorry. If I could suggest something:
Add some bullet point summaries of when to use Flobbidinous Floop, when to use Faceless Manipulator, when to use N'Zoth, the Corruptor, when to use Elise the Enlightened, how to deal with Mass Dispel and Hex. That kind of thing (I know you touch upon MD and Hex but they're buried in the guide).
It's not quite clear on some of the cards I mentioned unless you read the entire guide (the tips are scattered throughout). Also, the part about being mindful of getting too many Lucentbark on board seems kind of important. Unfortunately, it's buried somewhere in the middle of the guide. I'd have to reread the guide to find it again. Or perhaps saving Gloop Sprayer for 2 Lucentbark is not necessary - getting 1 is good enough value.
For the longest time, and maybe it was because I took this deck directly to ranked without fully looking at the list, I couldnt figure out how you get 5 Lucentbark. Then I drew the Faceless Manipulator.
This could just be me and please dont take my post as negative. The fact you posted a guide at all is great. It's clear you tried to be thorough and describe various scenarios. I just feel they didnt stand out enough and/or you miss the actual combos of the deck and assume they were obvious.
edit: also, I dont play druid much and wanted to try it out so this might explain why I asked for the suggestions I mentioned.

You still never answered OP's question. Your "it says right on the card" is a douche response which is actually vague.
It improves each game by +3 dmg for each spell you cast. It starts at 3. Cast a coin and it jumps to 6. Cast another spell and it goes to 9. If you have +2 spell dmg, It's 11 instead of 9. So you're looking at:
Card damage = 3X + Spell Dmg
Where X is the number of spells you cast during the current game (not run).
The way it improves by +3 dmg per spell is not intuitive and in no way spelled out on the card. Try helping out more next time and losing the attitude.

This doesnt appear to be true at this point in time. I have completed all of normal mode and my Jr is still there as an option. From other searches I did, it says you need to have defeated all 4 plague bosses. I'm only at 1/4 for mage so cannot confirm that.
--Edit: Totally forgot. I have a fully upgraded Finley and the Jr there upgraded to Sr. So this must be the behavior here too. Defeat 4 plague bosses as Reno to get the upgraded Sr Diver.

Other Guy here,
I didnt know a "twist" was the official name for each chapter's flavor. I thought OP was calling the anomalies a twist. I still dont understand the big deal on each chapter's "twist" and why the hatred. Dont like it? Dont do it.

you do control them. you choose to put them in play or not by disabling them if you dont like them.

another combo to kill off Mecha'thun is Galvanizer + Plague of Flames. You have to use the combo AFTER the 2nd Plot Twist, but then it doesnt matter what you have on board - everything dies. I'd consider cutting Dr. Morrigan + The Soularium to make this work. The Soularium seems like anti-synergy with what you are trying to do.

Agreed on the value. Id rather throw them $20 USD instead of 2800 gold since I'd rather get 28 packs for that 2800 gold. Much better value for all wings IMO.
