• Titles have been added to the reward pool for Collector’s Reserves on the Collection Level Track.
• Titles are now visible in the Matchmaking screen when you load into a match - let your opponent know what’s up!"
  
  

Why would anyoen ever think that this is a good thing besides their company?
What I read instead "We packed collectors reserves full of crap so that you get even less relevant goods and need to grind even more!"

How does anyone care about "letting opponents know whats up" in a 2 seconds matchmaking screen and a 2 minutes engagement with a random person I will never see again. WTF!?

Infinite greed!

How did they even connect Lich King with Silvermoon/Blood elves in one expansion? It seems they didn't have enough material and merged 2 expansions in one at the last minute?

Normally Lich King could be better associated with Northrend or Plaguelands!!??

Will they be animated? I guess not?

Furthermore, they will be Black & white for this expansion? If so.. i'm not sure they really worth chasing/buying

Feels quite ugly to me and does not fit the art style of rest of the game. Looks more like some old MTG cards in black and white from 90'. Not sure if it's a good direction, diamond cads look far more better.

Reborn minions do leave 2 Corpses in total.

You know, I'm not sure. My client got frozen when I went to log in after claiming the first drop (which might've skipped the notification), and annoyingly I don't remember what was my Nathria pack count before that. Will know for certain with the second pack, seeing as it's from the next expansion.

Update: Most everyone reporting on the Blizzard forums that no packs have yet been received.

You know.....I never thought I would regret dusting all my extra Ice Revenants. I guess everything can be broken these days.

Theotar’s play rate did not drop as far as we would have liked it to with the smaller nerf

No fucking shit. It turns out the card that stops your opponent's win condition and sometimes gives you a win condition or just wins the game outright because they devs printed several other win conditions that can only be attacked from hand is both necessary and ubiquitous.

and is still much higher than we would like it to be leading into the March of the Lich King. Our aim with this second nerf is to lower the card’s play rate to ensure that the release of Death Knight is as fun as possible for players with a wide variety of interests and experience levels.

And that just gives the game away.

They're pointing out that a substantial amount of the playerbase does not like playing with or against Theotar. They're acknowledging the card's unfun nature and have decided -- multiple times and with precedent from past cards -- that the answer is to make the unfunness less-immediately common as opposed to removed.

Here's what they're (deliberately) missing. A bad card can make a game bad even if it isn't played. A bad card warps the meta forcing decks to be built (and sometimes played) in unfun ways even if the card doesn't show up in a given game. It means entire classes are just played less because of their vulnerability to said bad card and/or the meta it creates.

The concern here isn't what's fun. The concern here is what the players will tolerate.

Just like with animation speeds pre-Battlegrounds and cards only changed when they've done maximum damage to the play state, Theotar will get a text change only if it seems to hit a novel asset (a new game mode or the newest, in-house designed deck for a class respectively). Otherwise, nothing changes unless the card somehow, after rotation, warps Wild (which I doubt it ever could).

And their main concern is that their newest, shiny thing isn't supplanted by what was just five minutes ago their newest, shiny thing.

I guess the upside here is that Theotar won't synergize a Death Knight control deck and end up seeing more play than they anticipate. Small blessings, right?

Reborn cards don't leave a corpse for each time they die, do they?

The "runes:---" search method doesn't make a whole lot of sense unless a card can mix runes, i.e. a card with one Frost rune and one Unholy.

That has been one thing that has crossed my mind the other is that you choose the opponents card to take but the opponent then chooses yours so sure you take the opponents piece but they can take yours giving him a double edge as well. Still doubt either will happen as not sure if pride or stubbornness but unless something is literally breaking a format they don't tend to alter/ban the card and rather just increase the cost.

Ice Revenant makes sense remember in a casual game it showed up in a freeze mage deck and woah was surprised how big it got quickly in that so it being changed before frost DK... yeah I get it.

Signature cards will need to see more of but do feel certain artwork will work better as I think the white of Marrowgar helps it stand out while Lor'themar is just... there. As for the new portraits... need to actually see them in client to make an opinion as the Arthas one I like the armor but the face is just... something off with it.

I'm still a bit unsure of the rune system and the general worth of each build.
This seems like a HUGE deckbuilding commitment to only pick one.

Assuming that you'd play it with minions on your side too, wouldn't you be able to refill your corpses as you go?

reread your comment and edited mine

Nerf to Ice Revenant is necessary because from what Ive seen of the frost cards in DK a lot of them generate spells and discount other spells, so we can have a problem with this innocent card getting a 6/6 buff on turn 4.

Well, at least I'll be happy knowing I still have all those cards in my collection ready for a payoff.

As for theotar, this is not the end nor will it be, since its fairly obvious now that team5's concern isn't really theotar as a win con, as much as it is theotar seeing too much play. Seriously, this card isn't even 4 months old and it already has two nerfs. Just make it discard cards than swapping it, that'll make the card truly all about disruption and not winning games on its own, which even at 4 mana wouldn't be any more impressive than most other disruption cards available.

At least DK is more resistant to theotar (owing to the lack of corpses for other classes) and being the new class will likely be dominating play rates the first month, meaning theotar's play rate will similarly diminish. But I wouldn't be surprised if this card gets another nerf at some point within the next year.

For all you peasants, you were lied to, manipulated by those unworthy of your life. Now you will see the truth that lies behind those walls, and TEAR through them!

*cough*

Wahoo, Death Knight is done and this set NOW is officially done.

Wild-only player crying in the corner

I mean the card wasn’t bad, there just wasn’t much support for it as there just isn’t alot of generic frost spells. Still surprising though. I’ll miss playing this in bad pure frost decks in casual though.

I was thinking of crafting Theotar again after the last change so it is good time to craft again since I will get my dust back in a few weeks. This will help in case I want it in a deck.

Twitch gives you a progress bar, so if it is moving as you are watching, then you should be good to get those packs.
