TGT Arena Impact
The Grand Tournament is bringing forth new cards, which means there are going to be new choices in the arena. Neonangel has finished the initial review of their impact in the arena. Head on over to the thread to learn more about what we can expect from these new cards in the Arena, and while you're over there, be sure to share your own thoughts as well.
I just got Justicar Trueheart from a pack, guys please tell me if I should be happy or not?
probably not
Legendaries are always a good thing to get.
Best case it becomes a staple in upcoming meta decks. Worst case it's a legendary you don't want to play, but is just viable enough to not dust it.
Well I saved gold for 35 packs and Justicar Trueheart is the only legendary I got... Which is why I'm kinda wondering if I should be happy with it : ]
You managed to connect to the servers an open your packs??? consider yourself lucky
Well the best thing is the message in the launcher: We are investigating the cause.... well I can tell you the cause it is because everybody tries to login and your servers can´t handle it no need to investigate
oh my god blizzard releases a new expansion and the servers cant handle it?
that NEVER happened before EVER O.O
Damn it, EU whyyyy?
Can't login yet, server seems to be overloaded just like at GvG launch... GIMME NEW CARDS NOW!!89$ASDF
A-a-a-a-a-a-and EU is already down.
EU overload, server will break in minutes.
Edit: Free packs or riot! Seriously, we're waiting for 20 minutes to be even remotely logged into the game. This will surely exist until tomorrow, they will never learn from their mistakes.
Edit No.2: E V E R Y O N E, G E T I N H E R E !
EU seems to be down
