Frequently asked questions regarding Descent of Dragons expansion...
[Q] -> Can you play multiple Sidequests at the same time?
[A] -> You can have 2 in your deck, but like secrets, while one is active you can’t play the second copy of it.
[Q] -> Does Questing Explorer work with Sidequests?
[A] -> Yes.
[Q] -> Can Sidequests be generated by other cards (Magic Trick for example)?
[A] -> Yes, since Sidequests are more broadly completeable by nearly any deck of their class, they can be generated/Discovered.
[Q] -> Can Deathwing, Mad Aspect clear newly reborned or resurrected minions? (eg. If opponent has Restless Mummy on board, can he also clear the reborned copy?)
[A] -> He’ll attack all minions that were on the board when he was played, he won’t attack things that were created by their Deathrattles/Reborn.
[Q] -> If we are playing the Nozdormu the Timeless at 4 mana, are we going to get 6 mana 0 mana or 10 mana to spare?
[A] -> Nozdormu the Timeless *sets* both players to 10 max mana, doesn’t change your current available mana amount. If you’re at 4/4 and play it, then you’re at 0/10. If you’re at 7/7 and play it, then you’re at 3/10.
[Q] -> Is the Virtual Ticket legendary also counted into the expansion legendaries pool? So are we going to get only 4 more neutral ones?
[A] -> Yes there only 4 more Neutral Legendaries.
[Q] -> Are we going to also get golden Galakronds for free or are we supposed to craft them?
[A] -> No, Golden Galakronds are only craftable and disenchantable.
[Q] -> The EVIL classes will contain 3 legendaries this time?
[A] -> Yes.
[Q] -> The total number of cards in this expansion will be 140 this time, right?
[A] -> Yes.
[Q] -> Will Galakronds show up in packs?
[A] -> No, they won't.
[Q] -> Will the free 5 Galakronds be disenchantable?
[A] -> No, they won't.
[Q] -> What will happen after the 90 days period for the free Galakrond copies? Can we open them in packs after?
[A] -> They won’t show up in packs, they work like C’Thun. After the 90 days if you own a Descent of Dragons pack and you head to the pack opening screen you’ll get them.
[Q] -> Does anyone know if non-golden Sathrovarr will be given to everybody?
[A] -> Non-golden Sathrovarr will be given to everyone free!
[Q] -> Any news about Tyrande?
[A] -> We are still planning on giving it away free this year.
[Q] -> Will Hearthstone Battlegrounds have a cost/prize structure similar to arena? I also saw "points" being awarded to the player, will it have it's own ladder format?
[A] -> There is no cost but It has It's own MMR and matchmaking.

no, it's 5 different cards, a different one for each of the Evil classes
Stop give me hope, Blizz =/
It's OK. You can still choose not to believe them and continue to wallow in despair. The choice is yours!
"Nozdormu the Timeless *sets* both players to 10 max mana, doesn’t change your current available mana amount"
It's called Empty mana crystals.
No, because "sets to 10 empty mana crystals" would empty out any full crystals you have after summoning him.
That's not what it does.
*Set to* is different wording than *gain* though. *Gain* actually gives you mana crystals whereas *set to* just sets your mana limit to a certain number. We saw the same thing with mojomaster zihi, that card would give you empty mana crystals if you actually had less than 5 left.
Just adding empty would not work because playing this at 10 mana would empty out all you crystals even though the card costs 4.
So while i agree its confusing it is consistent wording.
Nope, sorry.
BUT you can Join the League of E.V.I.L.
We have free Legendarys, just for all members. :)
I hope the Legendaries the Hero classes get will be comparable to 3 legendaries. I know Galakrond is different because he's given away for free, but come on.
Yeah, Evil classes will get strong hero cards to build around, and Hero classes will get......sidequests, which even can be generated by other cards which make worse some spell polls
