Yes, but unfrotunately Blizzard has not released official art for these yet and the methods we use to create cards have not been updated to reflect the fact we now have spell schools. It's all a WIP. :)
Zephrys thinks he's the perfect card. No need to change it.
So if I own any cards from upcoming "core set", I can safely dust them because then I'll get them for free for a year anyway?
P.S. Not playing wild.
And none of the other modes? Then you can dust them, but I would wait until it’s live since there is no advantage to dust before the rotation.
You can, but you’ll only be able to use them in standard
Not every card. The reworked Legendary dragons for example are gonna be available in Classic, so if you dust them, you won't be able to use them in Classic
No they're not. Itll be the original dragons in classic I think. Pretty sure.
THEY FINALY MADE LIGHTNING STORM STOP TILTING PEOPLE YES!!
Good catch!, hadn't realized that they finally buffed it to what it should've been in the first place
Novice Zapper is insane
Agree.
I also noticed two other cards in the live stream. Stormwatcher and Tidal Surge, except Tidal Surge had Lifesteal.
About time with lifesteal on these not-quite-lifesteal cards. I recall getting flamed once for saying that it was odd that Drain Life and Holy Fire weren't slightly changed to be lifesteal.
The Core set is FREE. You can use it in both Standard and Wild. IT will only be active this Year of the Gryphon and then be replaced. Any cards in it that you do not own will be gone then, unless they are also part of the new Core set for the next Rotation year.
It will work like this:
Standard: Core set + Ashes of OUtland + Scholomance Academy + Darkmoon Faire + Forged in the Barrens
Wild: Basic & Classic, but renamed to Legacy set + Hall of Fame + Core Set + Forged in the Barrens and every other card set ever
Classic: Basic & CLassic, but with the cards returned to their 2014 state.
All 3 game modes will have a casual and a Ranked ladder. All 3 will give rewards at the end of the month.
yep, but will we keep those new added cards from Core set (like Vanessa) after they rotate out of Core set for standard after year or two or three, and will we be able to still use that card in Wild or to accomplish that we have to craft that card? I have found zero information about this
I haven’t see anything either, but pretty sure you would have to craft the new cards after they rotate out.
Kind of imagine most of these new cards they're adding are meant to stick around in the core set tbh. I think the original 7 class legendaries, Natalie Seline, and Vanessa VanCleef are probably gonna stay evergreen cards for the most part. (With maybe some balance changes to cards like Al'akir)
after seeing how they struggled with implementing last time (xp, achievements, new modes) I doubt it will be a smooth transition the first days :(
Can I safely dust those already owned cards?
No. Cards in the core set will be subject to change every year. So basically they are not giving them to you for free, they are loaning them to you for free.
