Adding cards to a set after it has been released devalus packs opened before the cards where added. Unless the cards are given for free(like this time) you are either forced to wait with opening packs or lose value. It's better for new cards to be added in the next expansion.
Its lit fammm
This is going to turn out SO BAD! We are going to regret this.
Any reasoning to your wild speculations? or just random pessimistic hyperbole?
They could be standard speculations.
Finally they start doing something for this game! Please keep this changes coming, and don't be afraid of it!
Im very happy with this changes.
New Unexpected results... WTF? it is like 3 mana 4\4 before spell power and apprentice discounts
The new legendary is busted.
The irony that a free golden legendary isn't the biggest news.
Was certain this was somehow a HP prank, but no, it's on Blizzard's site
The new mech looks absolutely, ridiculously broken, more like stuff you get as treasures in adventures
Do we still get full dust refund? :P
I don't think we do. I think it will be the same case with Zayle.
Ok, which of you messed with the reality stone?
Excellent!! However, what about buffing some dead basic and classic cards?
That is unlikely. Basic and Classic are supposed to be slightly worse than expansion cards.
Blizz knows that alot of people have been leaving the game. They had to do something to get players back.
Wow and they said they would never buff. Did they get new management?
Oh my... Those buffs! It is the great way to shake up the meta. My Handbuff Paladin definitely approves it!
YEEEEES, finally!
What just happened? And most importantly, why are my pants wet?
