All The Pre-Order Hearthstone Bonuses From BlizzCon 2018
There were a few different bonuses Hearthstone fans can obtain thanks to things at BlizzCon. We've got them all in one easy place for clarity's sake.
- Note that the Rastakhan and Warcraft III card backs are not yet available in-game due to the client needing a patch.
- The client should be patched this week with both missing card backs.
- Also it is worth mentioning that Destiny 2 is free for everyone with a Bnet account. Must claim it by Nov 18th through Bnet Gifts.
BlizzCon 2018 Virtual Ticket
Not really a pre-order but the Virtual Ticket can still be purchased if you're interested in:
- 10 Hearthstone Packs (2 each of WW, KFT, K&C, UNG, Classic)
- The Blizzard 2018 Card Back
- Items in all of Blizzard's other titles. See here.
Virtual Tickets can be purchased for at least a couple weeks after the event, so you've still to some time to decide if you want the card back.
Rastakhan's Rumble Pre-Order
This is the big one! Like The Boomsday Project, we've got two pre-orders available for this expansion though they've done it a bit differently. Instead of having the second pre-order being expensive, there is now a low-end option which allows you to pick up the card back and some packs.
Challenger's Bundle [Store]
- "Ready to Rumble" Card Back
- 17 Card Packs
- Available for $19.99 USD
Rastakhan's Rumble Bundle [Store]
- New Alternate Shaman Hero: King Rastakhan
- "Ready to Rumble" Card Back
- 50 Card Packs
- Available for $49.99 USD
Warcraft III: Reforged Pre-Order
Whaaat? Not only is this game coming out again super amazing (incredibly biased, yup) but if you get the "deluxe" edition for an extra $10 (base is $29.99 USD), you get goodies in some of Blizzard's other games. For Hearthstone, we're getting a card back.
You can pick up the pre-order over on the Battle.net shop.
There's also a bonus bundle that gives you a Virtual Ticket with the deluxe edition for a slight discount.
we need an option to use a random card back for every game!
Why we have no benefits in other blizz games for buy HS pre order?
sorry google translate ,, no more stupids card backs ...
These same companies use their power and wealth to buy up and monoploise the market, directly affecting the creativity and production within the entire industry. Sometimes 'voting with your wallet' is not enough, and sometimessaying it is is downright corpo-capita blind worship.
I'm start to think that I'm feeding a company that will do harm to gaming community in the future

Activision has been on this path since after CoD4:MW. You don't need to feel guilty really, but yeah, there is no point pretending Blizzard is a breeding ground for creativity in the gaming industry anymore. I'm, fine with them releasing polished but derivative stuff (they've been doing only that now for years, from WoW onwards) - but the micro-transaction, pre-order, stock holder pleasing crap can absolutely go too far and their PR and heads need to listen.
Why in Jaraxxus' name would I have to pay 62,71$ just because I earn my money in €? Can Blizzard explain that? Is it the "shipping cost"? Lmfao.
The Dollar is worth less than the Euro.
Yet, I have to pay €21,99 and €54,99 for these packages.
Where do you want me to bend over?
I think Blizzard should do the Preorders following with possibility to get all three:
Expansion welcome bundle - $5 - 10 packs + random legendary
Expension preorder - $50 - 50 packs + random golden legendary + card back OR 70 packs + card back
Expansion extravaganza - $80 - 80 packs + two random golden legendaries + card back + alternative hero OR 120 packs + card back + alternative hero
The head line reads, "So Many Card Backs" but the Card Back page needs updating. Huh?
I want to see all the cards of the expansion before buying. If it's gonna be like the 2 previous ones..mostly combo orientated cards...i'll use gold to buy....if I like the expansion I'll go wild with real money.
I feel like the last two expansions have spoiled me. The add-ons of 20 packs (about 2000 dust) or a Golden Legendary (1600 dust if you DE it) were pretty sweet. A new hero portrait... I don't value it nearly as much, and the 17 pack bundle is only 2 packs and a back ahead of regular purchases. Might skip preorder this expansion.
Not mad or anything, just not buying this round.
Wow it's to expensive in dollars. In Argentina it cost 500 pesos wich is 14 dollars.
Who the fuck cares, different economy, different prizes dude. (Si no venden en pesos acá con como se fue el dolar a la mierda nadie le compraría nada)
Not sure which bundle I will end up buying, however I do like that they included the option for other game content. I play across several of their platforms, and know when I buy the bundles on those platforms I like getting the HS content when available. Glad to see that at least.
Expansion looks interesting. Certainly a lot different than what the current meta is. I do wonder if there will any planned synergies with the non-rotating xpacs. Sure there will be, but interested to see what those are.
And people are upset that a company builds in incentives to use their other products or services? I'm supposed to go in a baby rage over that? Damn, Hello Google. Hello Amazon. Hello Apple. Hello Microsoft.These are the business practices of some of the most successful corporations in the world.
It's still the same game. The only thing you lose out on by not playing the other titles is a cosmetic!!! Let's keep it in perspective. Businesses have the right to take moves that make them money. You have the right to decide if it's worth it to you to spend the money. It's a good and fair system .
Well said and with that in place the quickest way to send a message is not to play the game. I will advise to all who are crying over having to pay for something to stop playing and make your stand. Show Blizzard they are wrong. Only way YOU all can make a difference. Or as I said before.. go work a full time job for no pay and let me know how that works out for you. That is what you are asking Blizzard to do and then some. If they don't make money then there is no Hearthstone or WoW or OW or Diablo or Blizzard or gaming.
This staff fanboy should have less than 16y.old dude, take it easy. Watch out or his friends will ban u ! hihihi
They don't like any kind of criticism and they lot this website with lots of trash players and decks to confuse and mess with new players. U can see really worse players doing horrible decks all the time and they get all attention from Staff and other bad players who thumbs up any shit they know don't work ( but call it fun anyway) but negativate really good lists due for envy or cause they don't have collection or just cause they are shit ranks. Doesn't matter, I myself just came here to the memes and the discussions. I love to see these kids pretending they are something in internet. This fluxflashor is the worse, his 16y.old reality should be too much to bear, so he come here comment and spread bullshit to balance with his shit life.
An admin with bad behaviour ,snark comments and an ego that doesn't fit his teenage reality. I felel sorry for him. Git gud.
Keep saying nonesense, it is free :)
Hey, that means that there is at least something that you can afford ;)
lol and my favorite is that you say he is a teenager yet ended your tantrum with "git gud", had one of the longest run-on sentences I've ever seen. Not once did you have a period in there. Most of it made no sense. It's 'bare' not 'bear'. Just a few of the many things that made me laugh in your tantrum. Good stuff.
I'm not sure what part of this post makes me sorriest. The edgy boi composition? The terrible spelling and grammar? The fact that he uses superfluous Us in words like I do, likely marking him as Canadian like me or as being from another Commonwealth nation? Nah, nah.. probably the fact that sweet edgy-named WeedBeans thinks that his judgment means even a tenth as much as the hard work that the Hearthpwn staff put in, much less that anyone will give enough of a shit about his opinion to change their patronage and opinion of the site.
If you came for the memes, you got lost on your way to Reddit or KnowYourMeme.com. Run along.
