But it's too beautiful to eat.
Happy New Year! We've got a yummy new card back to start 2022 off strong for Hearthstone. You can add the "Take the Cake" card back to your collection this month by winning 5 ranked constructed games. Be sure to get your games in because your faction needs your help - and you get some sweet honor rewards too.
As always, if you want to look at Hearthstone card backs, we've got an entire gallery dedicated to just that!

Everyone gets the opposing faction leader for free,regardless of finishing the honor questline?
If I remember correctly you get the opposing faction leader when you get to last rank of honor.
But does this mean the deadline is Jan 11, and after that you cannot receive it, can someone clarify??
AFAIK, the other faction leader is a guaranteed freebie
January 11 is when they stop counting. The questline remains in place until rotation, and you will receive the golden opposing leader if you reach the top honor rank before then.
The golden version is NOT guaranteed. You have to earn enough honor to finish the legendary questline.
The diamond version IS guaranteed, but it will not necessarily be the one you want. It will be a diamond version of the leader of the faction that collects the most honor by January 11. (Drek'thar if Horde wins; Vanndar if Alliance wins.)
whan the miniset is supposed to be launched?
Probably late Jan or early Feb. Its usually 2 months after the expansion releases.
I had in mind that Jan 11th was ALSO the miniset expansion launch ... but probably I am wrong ...
The more I look at this card back, the more it's becoming my favorite, and I have a lot of favorite card backs 😅
Nice to know Blizzard keep getting creative. I'm sure they will do a coffee card back eventually as well. The foam can be the swirl ☕
That is a super yummy card back! <3
It is a bit too fruity for me...
