Blizzard at gamescom 2014
Once again, Blizzard will be in Cologne, Germany at gamescom 2014. No schedule has been announced yet but they promise we will see it in the coming weeks. Hopefully there's some fun Hearthstone stuff planned! Are you going to be going?
Quote from BlizzardBlizzard Entertainment will once again be at the world’s biggest games convention this summer – gamescom 2014, which takes place August 13-17 in Cologne, Germany. We’d love to see you there to join in all the fun!
We’ve got our biggest ever booth, all sorts of entertainment throughout the four public days of the event, and four great games for you to come and play. You can try out World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor, Heroes of the Storm, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition on PS4, and Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft.
On our stage we’ll have live music, our world-famous dance and costume contests, regular quizzes and other competitions with awesome prizes, and more. We’ll have more information on how to participate in the costume contest very soon, but for now, you can already start designing, crafting, and sewing your magnificent Blizzard-inspired outfit!
We’re also planning a glorious gallery on our booth bringing you both official and fan-created artwork in this, the year of World of Warcraft’s tenth anniversary, so get ready to submit your own creations.
In the coming weeks, we’ll bring you a complete schedule of all the fun and games that will take place on the Blizzard booth during gamescom. You can find out more about the convention itself here.
I really started to think blizz meant next summer when they said curse of naxx gonna release in summer
You realize it's still spring, right?
If this works like Bane of Doom, its hard to judge this card without knowing what you might be getting.
Well, that's the question I suppose. The text seems to imply that it's not from your deck, or they would have included that (or if they didn;t it's just bad wording AGAIN).
Will be very interesting to see what beast you can get with it then.
I assume like Sense Demons, if you have no beasts left you get a snake?
No the beasts aren't from your deck
Blizzard should really clarify the card text to show whether its a random beast in your deck or pulled from a pool of all the beast cards in the game.
Well it's not Unleash the Unleash the Hounds, but I guess it might be able to summon a hound if it's any random beast...On that note I wonder if you could summon a polymorph sheep, hex frog, etc...
It has to be a collectible beast.
Awesome new hunter card! I was expecting a secret, but this is much better!
Another beast to combo with buzzard. Besides that its a 1 mana novice engineer.
it doesn't say "from your deck" in the text, as sense demons or captain's parrot do, so I assume this will pull from a special set ala Animal Companion or Dream cards, or from some subset of all beast cards that you may or may not have in your deck ala Bane of Doom. interesting.
thinking about it, I'm leaning toward the Bane of Doom option here, as the wording is most similar (draw rather than summon, but just "Beast", as just "Demon", rather than "Beast Companion" or "Dream" or "Power Chord"). so the question is which Beasts will be in the pool for this card to draw (if not all normal Beasts)
First impression on Hunter card: Great for Midrange Beast Hunter! It's a 1/1 specific Beast Loot Hoarder drawing a Beast.
