You literally just got 1000 win portraits to show your veterancy and you're whining because people can obtain a skin, which many could not before, again?
This screams entitlement, no matter how much you claim it not to be.
I'm not whining because people can obtain a skin; I'm whining because blizzard is doing nothing for keeping its exclusivity and make it available in a wrong way.
These are different from each other. I have given so much example to make it clear but you all are still stuck on that "People deserves to obtain the skin."
I don't mind who will obtain that skin. Take screenshots that you can finally own Tyrande skin and print it to hang it on the all walls of your home or roll those screenshots to keep them in wherever you want I don't really care. I won't give more examples because you are just striving to not understand.
Nice performative wokeness. You just strain to be more sensitive but honestly it doesn't work. It looks like a token gesture sadly because I've already said I don't mind people obtaining it, I just mind how blizzard doesn't keep its exclusivity.
That you're under some pretense that skins in Blizzard games should be exclusive isn't anyone else's problem. I don't recall Blizzard ever stating they would be exclusive. In fact, if you look at their other games, Overwatch for example, the exact opposite applies. They have the same events every year, with each skin from the previous year recurring, thrice as cheap as when it was initially introduced (3k initially, 1k every year afterwards).
In the end you're still complaining about a non-issue because you hold far too much value to a cosmetic. Adding some irrelevant terms to your arguments doesn't change that fact.
And if the majority of people do not understand your point of view, despite your countless examples, then perhaps you should work on your ability to articulate. Rather than claiming everyone's not willing to understand.
I am playing the game also and don't mind those system because they stated that those contents will come back with every event. It is not same with Tyrande situation. They didn't say there will be more offers like that. All of the overwatch players knew that they will come available again.
There is nothing wrong with my ability. You are just keep wearing "I'm a sensitive guy" suit and keep acting like a fan-boy. Maybe you are not a fanboy I don't know you but that's truth that you are acting like one.
There is a mistake from a company, wrong advertisement etc. and you keep defending it. There might be only two reasons for that, being a fan-boy or strained sensivity like how people do for animal-rights.
They are not irrelevant btw; how you act against for all of those "irrelevant examples" shows how your personality shapes around them. Strained sensivities, histrionics, fear of social exclusion, social influence or concerns about not being approved, all is same how much you say that they are irrelevant from this thread.
I said something similar to your opinion about the return of the Rag. card back and I'll say it again here: there is absolutely nothing special about the people who already own the Tyrande hero. There was no true effort involved in obtaining it. You just signed up for Twitch prime and, if from one of the regions where she was not available, lied about where you were. I guess you also linked your Twitch and Blizzard accounts. That's all you had to do.
Having the Tyrande hero means nothing other than that you happened to have been playing HS during the time she was available and were aware of the few small steps you had to take to get her. In my mind that is not something that gives you bragging rights or any reason to want other players to be unable to use her or have some superficial tweak as though the original is more special in some way.
Now if Blizz were to hand out golden heroes or 1000 win portraits to everyone, or card backs that actually took a bit to effort to earn e.g. through heroic single player content or competitive play, then yes I'd take issue with that. But those take time and genuine effort, not 2 minutes and a few jumps between different websites.
It's about that already. I don't normally care for skins.
It's not about people who will obtain the skin. I've just felt tricked to buy Twitch/Amazon Prime. It would be same if now they decide to give King Rastakhan to everyone for free because I don't buy normally pre-orders. I like more to buy packs if I really need packs and I've just pre-ordered Rastakhan's Rumble just because of the skin.
People never understand or even are never trying to understand this complaints are not about them. I decided not to buy any of the hearthstone content anymore because of this shitty move of blizzard because I just knew that in Ragnaros card back times because it was the first move that I don't like and I've said under that article it is not guaranteed that they won't give other time-limited contents anymore and Tyrande skin is proof of that. I've ended up right at the end of the day.
I still didn't buy any of the pre-orders since that time and won't buy any in-game content with real money anymore. I've just tricked by blizzard and wanted to open a thread to express my feelings to warn people who plans to buy limited-time in-game content from blizzard about they are not limited anymore.
It is same with how you will feel tricked if blizzard gives 1000-win portraits and heroic adventures to everyone. At the Ragnaros card back times, people defended blizzard by saying the exact same thing as you by saying "you don't spend any effort to gain that cardback". Now you are using this argument to defend this situation here. How ironic.
I feel tricked by blizzard and other players are personalizing the situation here. I don't care who you are or what you will obtain. I care only that I'm tricked by blizzard and won't buy any of the hearthstone content anymore. That's all. I will continue to play the game but won't support the game. I will watch it lose consumers and die in time and I will try to persuade people to not buy hearthstone content anymore. At least I will make it for my family and friends.
I am not even adressing people who doesn't own Tyrande skin. Stop personalizing the situation.
Thing is, I don’t understand why are you mad at Blizzard.
Yes, you chose poorly when you decided to buy Tyrande. I get that - if I buy something that is later given out for free, I’ll feel stupid for buying it, and feel like I wasted my money for nothing.
But how is that Blizzard’s fault? They don’t owe you anything just because you made the decision to buy their skin. You could have an argument if they specifically marketed that the product wouldn’t be offered again/for free. But they didn’t say that, so the way I see it you only have your own judgment to blame.
I definitely get the desire to not buy their content anymore - it’s been shown to be an unwise decision. But I don’t think there’s anyone you should be angry at.
Finally a sane argument;
I think its Blizzard's fault because they advertised it as "Special offer for only Twitch/Amazon Prime" like how they are advertising pre-order skins as "pre-order exclusive.".
I've bought Prime just because of Tyrande so I think i have a reason to blame blizzard.
I've bought Rastakhan's Rumble pre-order just because of obtaining King Rastakhan. I will be tricked twice if they gave it or make it available to buy again for 10$ for example because normally I wouldn't buy that 40+$ pre-order but bought it because of the skin and if i didn't buy that skin with pre-order I would be able to buy it with less money. (that's arguable that I have also got packs but I didn't need those packs because I had enough golds to buy it ah that's also arguable too that I have saved those golds for next expansion tho.)
anyways, I hope you got my point. I don't agree the argument; "it was your decision, blizzard is not responsible for this." I think that With me, Blizzard is also responsible for this by advertising it as an exclusive item and am thinking about it as I deserve a compensation or a difference between old tyrande skin and new one.
I get your point, but did Blizzard specify the offer won’t return afterwards? If they didn’t, your impression then doesn’t really justify you being mad at them now. They didn’t trick you. As the buyer, it was your call, and therefore your responsibility.
If they did, I still don’t think they should change the product to maintain exclusivity, because that would be unfair towards the people who buy the skin. Other people shouldn’t be negatively affected because Blizzard tricked you. The fact that you didn’t actually pay only for Tyrande, but for another benefit makes it a difficult situation for them: Blizzard can’t just refund every person that claims they only bought Twitch Prime because of Tyrande. It would mean they lied in their marketing though, so they would be on the wrong here.
Also, I think it’s worth mentioning your argument about “older players” has no place here. We’re talking about paid vs. free, so the argument you’re making now is completely illogical in the card back situation, for instance.
But a strictly minor one (although it's a pretty important buff), whereas Evolve-like mechanics are still generally problematic and abused (where they consider the original cost of discounted minions).
You literally just got 1000 win portraits to show your veterancy and you're whining because people can obtain a skin, which many could not before, again?

There is still only one card to get Lackeys for the good classes, isn't there? Else, there could be a few combos to get your Shirvallah a new divine shield, and a new attack. But like this, it's just not consistent enough, and before you shuffle an EVIL cable rat, for another chance for a witchy Lackey, it's way better to shuffle the big Tiger.
I guess it's important they try and be consistent with this, as there is the evolve lackey in the pool for another year at least; plus, all the wild stuff.

A (small) update! Because of finals I haven't been able to work much on the Tactician cards for Descent of Dragons, but hopefully I can release the cards this weekend. I figured I'd at least show off the Legendary Dragon for the class. Introducing Nefarian, the Abomination.
Nefarian works similar to Kazakus. You'll Discover twice from six "Aspects" based on the different Dragonflights (you can't pick the same aspect twice). The two aspects chosen will be fused into your Chromatic Dragon.
Show Spoiler
For example, if you choose the Black and Green Aspects, your Chromatic Dragon will look like this:
Because there are only six options to choose from, you can plan for certain abilities and play Nefarian accordingly.
Lightforged Crusader
2 powerful cards to force an archetype. Maybe if more support is printed next year. But doubt this will be viable currently.

Interesting effect that will be fun to play. Not sure how viable it will actually be. Needs testing! For Science!

Has potential to be an "I win" card in many situations.

People will hate this card because it will only be discovered. Will not be put into a constructed deck.

Elemental Allies
Not enough elementals in Standard for this to see play. Will see play in Wild.
Maybe next year we are getting an expansion that will bring back more elementals?

This is kind of a buff to Evolve effects. Now you can clear a 7-attack minion with a Mountain Giant, and restore it to full health.
