It all feels very rush, like we've been sitting down here twiddling our thumbs for the last 2 weeks only to find out that the reveals lasts less than a week before the final dump.
Wonder who was that genius in blizz that decided this was a good idea. I mean, they're having that theorycrafting giveaway, but then proceed to give us somewhere around 1 day after the full reveals to submit a list out.
Besides which, what about your own giveaway @Fluxflashor? Since submissions will end on the 18th (that's like day 3 of the reveals), is there any plans to push the date further up now that blizz has revealed their hand?
Pretty sure there is some sort of delay involved. I'm almost certain that the original release date was supposed to be the 23rd, but for reasons unknown it had to be delayed by a week (reasons that may or may not have occured shortly before or after Blizzcon) which is why this all feels rushed (when in reality it's just sort of pushed together instead of spread out evenly)
Well, even if they delayed the launch by a few days, is there really any need to only have a 1 week long reveal schedule? At least give us something to look at now, instead of another 5 day wait.
That aside, its starting to get worrying. I really appreciate the many features and additions team5 are adding into the game, but at this point it really does seem like their technical support aren't getting the support they need from management. The number of bugs, glitches and now this? QA must have taken a beating to squeeze more bucks into those annual reports.
I think I remember an earlier roadmap saying that the lab would become PvP, so that’s probably what it is. Hopefully, they also update some of the champion selections and passives.
You're probably remembering this roadmap from January, where they wrote "Social Lab / Legends Lab" under April, May, and June. Our guess is that the slash is intended to designate two separate labs, the 1st involves cooperating with another player circa the 2vAI and 2v2 labs that we've had in recent weeks and the 2nd being a card/power/opponent changes to the existing Lab of Legends format, but you could be right in thinking that this instead means that the Lab of Legends format changes to incorporate another player.
Either way, it is worth noting that that road map only called out Legends Lab for February, April, May, & June while this new calendar has only 1 lab designation, the aforementioned "Upgrade!!!" which occurs March 31st -- practically the only month not listed in the original roadmap. To be determined if this means they've tweaked their plans or if they just consider the 31st to be effectively April.
I'm playing the lightsteed on wild and it's not bad, this could be the same but it works only with one type of spells and the target is random... I'll give it a try
With the addition of school spells this kind of minions are guaranteed! i wonder if we'll see a demon with shadow or fel bonus... and for which class? demonhunter, priest or Warlock?
The thing I’ll enjoy most is the new expansion, but since we’re a week into the current one, I’m not exactly looking forward to another yet.
The Lab of Legends update will be exciting. Its the first solo CCG experience I’ve enjoyed in a couple years, but the same 9 enemies are getting old. I’m looking forward to seeing what they can add.

Regis did an initial reveal stream for Rastakhan's Rumble and Kibler did the final reveal stream back when they did two reveal streams per expansion. That was the stream where Jan'alai, the Dragonhawk was revealed for all I remember of it.
In all seriousness, sticking a board into Arbor Up is probably the best in-deck way of closing out a game. However, this deck hopes to generate at least a few extra spells from Lifeweaver that can help secure a win (I won one game thanks to Solar Eclipse + Moontouched Amulet and a Savagery to clear a pesky Taunt).
The deck recipe brawl might still be coming this time around, but likely not until the 20.0 patch is live so that the cards are all in the game and ready to be used in the brawl. Not sure exactly when that patch drops, maybe March 23. So that Wednesday, March 24 would be the first chance to do it. Maybe they will, maybe they won't! The only reason not to do it that day would be to avoid rotating cards being generated off cards in the recipes. So maybe the day after launch would be better for that reason.
I almost always just play for the pack, unless it is a bearable brawl and I will play it to complete quests. I wouldn't even play for the pack but I am three cards from a complete classic set and I don't want to craft Gruul, Brightwing, or Millhouse Manastorm.
I don't get it. What is the unintentional welcome by product?
(I'm F2P, so I'm not that clued in to how the pre purchase stuff works)
They are referring to the end of month packs you get based on your rank. Those packs are typically the most recent expansion, so in theory at the end of March we should get Barrens packs instead of Darkmoon packs for those rewards.
While it SHOULD work this way, it'll be interesting to see if that is what actually happens or not. I'd say after the 20.0 patch check your rewards chest in the in-game profile section and it should show what packs we're going to get. Right now of course they show as Darkmoon packs so we'll see if that changes.

Riot is killing it on that front and that was a whole separate discussion I wasn't able to have today.

Group Therapy! Need to blow off some steam? Mega salty? Here's the place!

Tavern Brawl is just outdated and newer modes are a lot better, they might as well get rid of it. I only do it for a pack.
