Pre-Release Fireside Gathering - Early Pack Opening
Blizzard posted about their Fireside Gathering events, which this expansion will be held between December 6th and December 9th. They are always a great way to get an early peek at your new card haul. Read all about it below!
Quote from Blizzard
The final clash between our heroic Explorers and E.V.I.L Villains is almost here – but before we officially take to the skies with Descent of Dragons, Pre-Release Fireside Gatherings will give you the chance to bust open your packs early and get a first taste of the aerial mayhem!
Attend a Pre-Release Fireside Gathering
Pre-Release events will take place the weekend before Descent of Dragons goes live, December 6 – December 9. Gather your crew and find a nearby tavern to join the fun, or come solo to make some new friends! Fireside Gatherings with the Pre-Release badge will also have unique items you can obtain from giveaways or activities – limited edition Galakrond Hearthstone pins, a Descent of Dragons poster, and various other Hearthstone goodies!
Once you’ve opened your packs at the gathering, you’ll be able to use your newly acquired cards to challenge fellow patrons in Pre-Release Brawls!
- Descent of Dragons No Cards Barred: Make a deck with any Descent of Dragons cards, no restrictions on classes or copies!
- Draconic Recipes: Jump right into the Dragon battles – simply choose a class and pilot new pre-built deck recipes!
Host your own Pre-Release event!

So what if people netdeck early? They're going to do it one way or another. Don't fuss about it, just come with a better deck. 🤷🏻♂️
Weird though. Since all Galakronds will be given for free on launch day, that means we wouldn't have access to any Galakrond deck. Am I right?
Right. Though they may be provided on the servers for the Fireside Gatherings.
at least they not exclusively giving a hand full streamers the expansion a whole week before the launch like what there did with the saviors of Uldum
These comments gave me cancer
Nice, three days for people to start netdecking and ruin the launch in advance. Thanks again blizzard for keeping the tradition alive.
Yes, because that is exactly what happened every time at the prerelease.
It’s free though. They’re just doing it because it’s a fun way to build up hype for ThE expansion.
Temptation is a commodity to be abused
guess the children didn't understand the comment
I didnt. I was drunk. My mistake :)
If you dont pre-order your "luck" will be diminished by Blizzard. (kidding, but feels like that) TEST IT ON YOUR OWN!
When are we getting packs for voting on Battlegrounds event?
If I recall correctly, it might take a week to do so. Last time they had a similar event and I did not receive my packs (2 total) for about a week and a half later.
Comments after one hour? 0.
You are doing well Blizz.
Now 1.
Poor Blizz.
that is hearthpwn not bliz xD
the website is going down since flexor left but the game is still fine, most players moved on to HSreplay :D
Who cares about flexor? Site is running just fine
Why? HSreplay only has game stats. It doesn't publish news like hspwn does.
