If you have an extra device, you could also use an extra F2P account and concede matches against your main account to complete these quests within 2 minutes. Do not take this as advice, but rather an alternative way to tackle these quests.

Finally received my first free pack.

Not really sure what fixed it though, because I tried a few more things simultaneously like disconnecting and reconnecting my battle.net account with YouTube again.

I also had to reinstall HS on mobile because of the go to Google play store infinite loop bug.

EDIT: Second free pack also received. Closed the stream immediately afterwards.

Thanks! Since there is still plenty of time to test this unconfirmed theory, I will now open a new browser and leave it open as the only active tab in the background and keep it unmuted. I did not have it muted prior by the way.

Did you receive your first free pack already?

I have the stream opened in 1 of my browser tabs since the stream started (showed the countdown initially) and no free pack has arrived yet in-game. I guess it does not happen for everyone simultaneously. I am in EU region by the way (added remark for comparison).

Does anyone know (or remember) whether the free pack drops are distributed right after watching the HS streams every 2 hours? I honestly cannot remember how it went with previous GM seasons. I know that Twitch drops are distributed immediately after claiming them.

EDIT: After reading the old comments of the referenced thread, it seems that the Youtube drops are NOT distributed immediately. Bummer!

You can actually quantify how bugged The Brave and the Bolner achievement really is by revisiting it after completion:

This would paint a picture of a seriously aggressive grind if not for the serendipitous bug 🤣

Yes, it immediately triggered the XP achievement and at the end of the match you get to see the reminder notification.

The Brave and the Bolner - Trigger Battlecries with Bolner 25/50/100 times.

Instantly complete ALL 3 tiers of this XP achievement with Bolner Hammerbeak combined with Kazakus, Golem Shaper. It is probably not intended to work this way, so this will probably be patched in the near future.

As for complementary card suggestions, just add 2 Lightning Blooms and fill up the rest of your deck with draw cards.

Enjoy!

@Alleria, I expected this RT:CP thread would be created by either you or me if noone else would. So, this means you arrived in Stormwind before I did 😄

I am at level 57 with Tavern Pass. I only had 1 weekly quest saved up this time and I had no Challenge a friend quests active from my F2P accounts unfortunately.

I got early Legend a few days ago by farming Questline Warlock in Wild. I have been doing the new XP achievements ever since which are now 66% done. I want to complete them as soon as possible before the nerfs arrive next week which would probably increase the difficulty a bit I think.

Good luck and have fun everyone. Let us make the best of our stay in Stormwind, Cheers! 🍻 

Agree, we have to temporarily sit this awful early meta out and hope that Team5 will swing with the nerf hammer hard and soon™. Until that happens, I will be completing XP achievements at rank floors and farm Questline Mages with my Questline Druid.

So satisfying 😇

EDIT: I am actually more annoyed by all the frequent UI bugs and random disconnects that were introduced by the latest patch.

Indeed, plus the fact that after so many years the main enabler of these shenanigans Gadgetzan Auctioneer is still within Standard is beyond me.

Lots of experimenting still to do in figuring out which will be the rock, paper and scissors decks of this early meta, but I have to say that I am already growing tired of these solitaire questline decks and it is only day 2 of United in Stormwind. Tradeable is a cool new mechanic though!

Do not get me wrong, each deck will have its followers and I am no exception to this rule. After completing some of the new XP achievements, I will pilot one of these annoying decks to Legend, but it will not feel great since I might as well play against a NPC.

Great comprehensive article.

I reached level 350 with Tavern Pass and without botting. My current gold balance is roughly 18K and I have 292K excess arcane dust lying around.

You can read about more RT experiences of fellow OoC members in this recurring thread: Rewards Track current progress

I have just ended up on level 350. My gold balance is now 18K which is about 2K more than last time. I spent roughly 17K on packs, the mini set and cardbacks. I still need 260 more wins to collect the final 1K Demon Hunter hero portrait.

I do not know what to expect from United in Stormwind, because of all the new and revisited mechanics. Should be lots of fun though and a fresh new meta hopefully. My primary goals will be to reach the 15% and 20% XP bonus levels of the new Tavern Pass track as soon as possible. As for what the next Rewards Track end level will ultimately be, who knows?

As always, I have enjoyed writing and reading about our individual journeys throughout the Rewards Track and I hope to continue this tradition of ours for many future sets to come.

Good luck to you all. Safe travels to Stormwind where we will have glorious battles and hopefully meet once again. Bye!

Another excellent support card for Fire Mage. I cannot wait to play this card and burn down my opponent's face.

Nice addition for Fire Mage. Fire version of Ray of Frost. I like it!

Better version of Hellfire for Mage and it has Tradeable too, awesome card.

Fire Mage support card, will definitely see play (by me). Who does not like mana cheat cards, come on now!

Seems to be either hit or miss with this card considering the reward. If only it would always discount your highest cost spell, it would have had much better potential.

Fire Mage incoming! I am kind of hyped to experiment with this new archetype.

Decent mount card, useful tool to instantly remove an opposing minion and have a minion remain on board as well.
