Winter Veil is Coming! New Card Back, Bundle Deal, Free Packs Through Quest
Winter Veil has hit the asian Hearthstone servers and will soon be out in Europe and the Americas. We heard about the holiday again in the Rastakhan's Rumble patch notes.
- Winter Veil Returns on December 18.
- There is a new card back that will be rewarded via a suspected tavern brawl.
- A new quest gives you 4 Boomsday packs for simply playing 100 cards in play mode.
- A bundle is available that gives you 30 packs for 20 bucks.
- You should be able to wish other heroes a Happy Feast of Winter Veil with an emote.
- Orgrimmar and Stormwind game boards will become snowy.
We'll let you know if anything fun pops up that we don't yet know about.
Winter Veil Wonder Bundle
Blizzard has introduced a bundle into the store as well that will cost $20 USD or 20 EUR. In contained 30 card packs, six each of the 5 expansions prior to Rastakhan's Rumble. Seriously though, why is it so difficult to include some of the new expansion packs? At least we're not Heroes of the Storm and essentially had our game cancelled this holiday season.
New Card Back
Previous Winter Veil
We first saw Winter Veil three years ago in 2015. It brought a new card back through the Gift Exchange Tavern Brawl which in turn brought forth complaints about the reward not being a free pack. Fast forward to 2016 and instead of complaints about a card back, there were complaints because we had no brawl at all for the holiday season! It was instead was brought back in February 2017.
Last year in 2017 we had a new brawl, Wacky Waxy Winter Veil which was themed for Kobolds & Catacombs, the expansion that had just launched. No card back reward though, instead we received 3 Frozen Throne card packs. Going back to a card back reward, and a new one at that, is a nice change!
This concluded a brief history of Winter Veil in Hearthstone.
is the card back still obtainable?
Also, if you keep track of your pity timers... you can see how far along you were on the timers for the various sets to help decide if it is worth it... if say you are above 20 or 30 on any of the sets, you might very well get a legendary... if you are below 10 on all the sets you likely won't get anything... so just maybe might help some of y'all decide if this is worth it
I found out if you gift it to someone before you buy it, you can gift it again to them as many times as you want. It only dissapears in the store when you have bought it for yourself. I bought it twice for my brother, so lucky him... but only got it once for myself. Also, a great set of packs for wild players... good value on packs.
Got 3 legendaries: The Storm Bringer, Professor Putricide and Ixil Fungal Lord plus 1600 dust. Nice pack!
who cares ?
Someone's jealous lmao
who cares ?
I think i got bug.
I got 4 quests when i got winter veil quest. (max can 3 quest in screen)

(this is not edited picture, this from my second account)
but when i check, i only have 3 quest. I don't get winter veil quest.
anyone has same issue?
I got 0 Legendarys from this bundle never happen to me before...
pity timer is for packs of the same expansion only
Got myself Myra Rotspring and a golden The Darkness... I'm happy, bc I got to dust off a lot of golden cards back when I thought collecting goldens was for some reason a good idea.
(edit) Was about to complain about no pack in the brawl
But then I remember that yesterday we got 4 on a quest
Wow, I got super lucky with my Winter Bundle. With the bundle and the quest packs that's 34 packs and I got 6 legendaries.
Electra Stormsurge, The Last Kaleidosaur (Golden), Hemet, Jungle Hunter, Bolvar, Fireblood, Grumble, Worldshaker (Golden) & Geosculptor Yip.
And besides that I got 1520 dust so yeah, not the best legendaries but overall pretty damn lucky pull I would say. Thanks Blizz! <3
*edited spelling mistakes*
Is the Winter's Veil Bundle like the Get In Here one that you can buy repetitively? or is it limited to one per account.
Seems like it's one per account. I bought it and can't buy it again.
(Winter Veil Wonder Bundle) everything would be just a standard rotation soon :Kappa:
From the bundle and the quest I've got 3 legendaries - Tyrantus, Rot'face and Shaman Legendary spell about transforming your minions into legendaries.. Don't remember the name haha
Got really lucky with this bundle. 3 legendarys Tyrantus, Myra’s Unstable Element and Grumble Worldshaker.
I normally considering buying those bundles more than the expension preorderthings. But this one i will skip. The value is just not there for me as a 90% Standard player. Free packs are nice ofc, but i got unlucky :/
well I guess it makes up for no pack at rumble start =)
