Wait - Are they really adding another variation on ‘gems’ like every Pachinko Mobile Developer? Another abstraction of real money to get you to spend a bit more (Buy a 2000 value pack, get 400 ‘bonus/free’, everything costs a division that ensures you have 300 left over)? On top of the nonsense we already have?

gently caress, I was on the edge already, that’s it, I’m out.

to be fair they announced it would come in increments (paraphrasing) "matching our most popular products"

but uh.....lol.

I see that you can get runestones from bg quests, so that's something. I dunno, maybe the standard reward track won't have any bg stuff anymore which would be good. I'd imagine they'd keep the big and merc stuff on it though to promote playing multiple modes

:confused: they give BG track XP, not runestones

I'm one more legendary away from having the full set. I will have enough dust to craft but if the card is Halkias. Should I bother or just save my dust until the next expansion?

halkias is garbage and will remain so for the foreseeable future

No way this is optimal. Probably you want go with the colossal and then only one of the other two minions for more consistency. Then I have no idea about what other spells would be good, but it probably doesn't matter too much

but MAN is it frustrating to have the game stalled for 6-8 turns with very little counterplay possible

so like can i just dust my entire knights of frozen throne collection? or is it going to require you to have the cards again in wild once this event thing is over? why wouldn't they just auto trash em if it wasn't a limited time thing?

they are only temporarily added to the core set, once the patch launches they all go *poof* unless you already had them

I forget, does it make sense to keep any standard packs you get now for when the expansion comes out?

yes it does once the new expansion comes out the new cards are added to the pool, and with duplicate protection and a currently full collection they essentially BECOME new expansion packs

of course if you're still missing cards from the previous sets of the Years of the Hydra or the Gryphon then it won't particularly do you any good

There was a patch today

The basic set is included in the arena now. Unfortunately, the pools for discovers and random generation are empty, making a bunch of cards not do anything, so they shut the arena down.

i..don't get it? you simply kill it off to get that deathrattle and then it's not on the board to kill you in 3 turns? or is that part of the deathrattle, and then you just protect it until you're ready to pop off?
