For Hearthstone, there should've been one account for all servers from the beginning. Enough would be to put a small warning when switching servers that my gameplay experience might be ruined because of lag and that's it. If I still want to play with lag on another server, that's entirely my choice. Instead, when I try to switch servers I get a warning that my collection isn't traveling with me. And why not, may I ask? Because reasons...
"The Core version is free, temporary, and non-disenchantable."
I've heard some streamers talking that Blizzard will be giving core set cards for free to everyone so you can disenchant cards you already own, because you'll get them for free anyway. This here shows what I suspected that case will be - yes core cards will be free, but only for as long as they are part of the core set. Once they go back to Wild, you won't have them anymore. Only cards that you opened in packs or crafted will be yours forever.
Yeah, but just look how much this deck has changed since the new expansion came out. So many new cards in it that it's almost unrecognizable. Same as hunter and bomb warrior.
I guess it was good while it lasted. Not even a full week has passed since new expansion has launched and we're back to old boring meta.
You're forgetting that we've gotten two sets of weekly quests and two extra daily quests in first week, so at current pace you'll need a lot more time than four weeks to get to lvl 50.
I thought that I've played a lot this first week and even with battle pass bonus included, I've just reached lvl 23. I certainly won't be continuing at this pace. By being 7k+ xp ahead of me, you really do play a LOT, which means that you're representing a tiny minority of Hearthstone community. Most of players play less than hour a day on average and progression system is tailored towards them.
I do expect that I'll reach lvl 50 by the end of the season, but not many levels past it.
I won't be talking much about new progression system because it was perfectly clear three weeks ago, when they officially announced it and showed some of the rewards, that we're getting ripped of our "free" resources, mainly gold. Only thickest of planks that keep their head deep in their behind we're believing that things will change for better before launch because "Blizzard said that nothing we've seen is final". Yeah, right.
What I'm disappointed in is the battle pass. It was a great opportunity for Blizzard to get additional funds from large portion of player base that don't spend any money on the game because, let's face it, Hearthstone packs and bundles are very expensive. Pricing was done right and I also like that they didn't include any additional packs or resources rewards, only cosmetics are available in order to avoid p2w arguments. Where they completely failed is xp bonus. 10-15-20% system is a joke, and it's a bad one too. Who would spend 20$ to get marginally more gold at the end of the season, and that's only if they play the game for several hours every day? Only someone who doesn't care how much gold they earn each expansion, because they buy their packs with real money anyway.
Sadly, it only shows that people at Blizzard are completely out of touch with reality. Instead of going for larger, and in a long run more stable and profitable, paying player base, they've decided to milk small number of whales for few extra bucks. Great job guys, give yourself a tap on the back and keep it up!
I think that's why they're adding so many free packs in the rewards, so that FTP players have a chance to get more packs as the season progresses and get the new cards since they have that no duplicate rule
They aren't adding free packs, the are replacing gold rewards with packs. Big difference.
If they want to give F2P players "a chance to get more packs", they need to give them gold, not packs. Especially not packs from past expansions.
But, like I said before, it still needs to be seen how fast will be possible to reach lvl 50 and how much time will be needed to get to each level after it and will there be a level cap and at what point. Let's just say I'm not very optimistic about it.
Screenshots of not al the levels only a few pages:lvls total and the epx numbers which is what really matters we have no die aof casue anythign we did see WASNT FINAL
I'm sorry, I didn't quite understood what you're trying to say here. I guess it's something about information released from Blizzard about new system is not final?
If that's the case, then what do you think, why don't we have full transparent information about the new progression system two weeks before it's implementation into the game? It's not like it's THE most important change ever to be made to the game since it's release. Oh wait, it is.
If this table is anywhere close to be correct, things don't look promising for dedicated F2P players. Even paying players who make small pre-order each expansion are in trouble. Gold rewards will be pretty scarce, so it'll all come down to how fast can you reach level 50 and how much time will be needed to grind levels past it.

So don't disenchant anything!
You're right, it's just a visual bug then.
I've opened 26 packs and only one was bugged, so it doesn't seem to be a big risk to run into it unless you plan to open a lot more.
Yeah, there are similar posts now all over the place. They messed up something.....again.
I was opening some DMF packs when this happened:

Did they changed something, or is it just another bug?
I stand corrected then. Thank you for the info.
Only two days between announcement and a release date? That's a first.
Love the art, simple but beautiful.
I liked first two parts of Book of Heroes very much, so I'm looking forward to new chapters.
First Day of School from 0 to 1 mana cost
Aldor Attendant revert the buff
Argent Braggart form 2 to 3 mana cost
First three that come to my mind. I'm not saying that all of them need to be changed, especially not all at once.
No paladin cards?
Yeah, but just look how much this deck has changed since the new expansion came out. So many new cards in it that it's almost unrecognizable. Same as hunter and bomb warrior.

Just wait and see... Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that?!

No exact numbers yet, only speculations based on some screenshots that are floating around.

Anyone here bought 10 mage packs that can confirm this?
I know that golden packs have no rules, but class packs should have normal rules just as any other.
Yes, I am aware of that, but if I'm getting something that I don't want, then I won't be interested in purchasing it.
