If you don't have a full set of Wild commons yet, you'll get 5 new cards per pack, instead of half the packs being 40 dust. On the other hand, there are a lot of unplayable legendaries in Wild, so that part of the bundle is not guaranteed to work out well.
"these bundles use the "custom" logic from Blizzard to "target" which one they think you'll buy ..."
Their algorithm seems very smart cause they offered me Tavern Special with 2 legendaries and 35 packs from Barrens set for $30 even though I already have all the legendaries in that set!
The Other bundle is the Bob's Bargain with 2 leg + 40 wild pack for $30 from wild set.
I'm not sure if I want to buy wild (most probably I won't) since it contains lots of unimportant legendaries and I have over 100k dust (inc. dust from the extra cards) which I can use for crafting a specific wild legendary.
However, if they would have offered me the year of the phoenix bundles, I would most probably buy that..
So they offered me the two options that I don't want to buy. Very smart of them..
Own 100% of Year of the Phoenix cards already and I'm only missing three cards from Barrens (2 Legendaries, 1 Epic). So of course I get offered 2 Barrens Legendaries and 35 packs for $30 or two Phoenix Legendaries (guaranteed to be duplicates) and 20 packs for $20. Meanwhile my incomplete Wild collection gets no love at all.
I saw Regis go super greedy with this card in Standard and while that does lead to some spectacular highlights, it is not very consistent. I made a lower-curve deck instead which doesn't go all-in on the Stealer of Souls, but does take advantage of the power spikes while rarely falling flat. Give it a try before this card gets nerfed.
The wild one would be better for my purposes but theres so many legendaries in wild that theres no way this "deal" is even close to worth doing. If they let you pick the legendaries or gave you 3200 dust instead it would have been better. At least for the wild "deal"
Tavern Special ($37 CA): 2 legendaries and 35 packs from Forged in the Barrens.
Bob's Bargain ($25 CA): 2 legendaries and 20 packs from Year of the Phoenix.
-------------------------------------------
Got the Tavern Special right away, because I missed the similar deal that was offered just after release. Very happy with the results: I now have only 5 cards missing from Forged, down from 11. Sadly, Xyrella still eludes me, but I finally nabbed new Kazakus!
I haven't decided on my version of Bob's Bargain yet. I have 9 cards missing from that year, all legendaries. If I assume I'm marginally lucky, I could open a third legendary in the packs. I'm really only looking for Ringmaster Whatley here; none of the other missing cards have seen play, which means a 1 in 3 chance *at best* of getting him.
I wish one of these bundles had been Wild; I've got hundreds of missing cards for these expansions, including some rares!
They gave me the 2 legendary/20 packs for both Barrens and YotP, each for 39 reais. I'm tempted to get the former, but here in Brazil that is not exactly a small amount. I wish we could at least choose the Legendaries, I don't want to spend all that money to get f..ing Kargal Battlescar and some other random Legendary for a class I don't even play.
Both ideas have some issues. Loreseeker Cho has the problem that it Discovers after you press the End Turn button, which is a bit weird. Professor Jones, on the other hand, is too similar to Arch-Thief Rafaam, at least for my taste.
linkblade91
Pretty nice idea, but I'd buff it to a 4/7 statline, since right now you're losing a lot of tempo to play it, considering his effect isn't immediate.

I think this card has a serious chance of winning the competition. Its effect is simple and elegant, while still tied to its original one.
My main issue is the name, which is basically a watered down version of the original card's name. I'd try something like Overspark, Overdrived or something like that.
Demonxz95
I'm not a big fan of using Illidan for this effect, since it has very little to do with him besides being a DH card.
ancorm4n
Neither of them have bad effects, but their names are a bit eh. I prefer Indiana Ford's effect, but I'd definetly change his name.
DestroyerR
The flavor is definetly there and the effect itself is interesting. Very nice.
Bob's Bargain - 2 random wild legendaries and 40 wild packs for $29.99 USD
Bob's Bargain - 2 random standard legendaries and 20 year of the phoenix packs for $19.99 USD
I have all the standard cards so it makes sense that they offered me a bigger wild bundle. My brother was only missing 2 barrens cards and was offered a 40 pack bundle for barrens.
Tavern special $20: w FiB legendaries and 20 FiB packs.
Bob's bargain $20: 2 random wild legendaries and 20 wild packs.
I don't have much of anything in wild except a budget disco warlock and murloc shaman decks, so this Wild bundle seems a drop in the ocean for covering old sets.
I'm sitting pretty well on my collection now, but the Special would have been a purchase in the past.
I'll note that in phase 1 of Mystery #3 (Druid), if you have an empty deck when you cast all six spells, it will not award you the "???" card at end of turn.
Also, I am fairly sure that *generated* versions of the required cards will not count for triggering the "???" event. This happens to be especially relevant for Druid, as it is likely you're Discovering all manner of Nature spells. In particular, the Eclipses gifted by `Kiri, Chosen of Elune` do not count as real Eclipses for the purpose of "???".
I got 20 std packs + 2 std legendaries and 40 + 2 from wild. I am whale but I guess I won't buy any as I have whole standard collection already. I am still not convinced not to buy wild though :)
