So I got the 50 free packs that were going around a while ago, but haven't gotten around to opening them. Should I do that before or after opening a carch-up pack?
We just might. This set already has a few returning characters, and one of the Warrior legs will be revealed at BlizzCon (unless Blisterguy has two of them).
Token is now in the DB. It's one of those manaless cards, and there's no mention of card reduction, so I'm guessing it's the same cost.
I could see this in some sort of deck that runs a small number of high-impact minions and the rest of the deck is spells, weapons, etc. Problem is, I don't see Paladin being able to pull that off, especially in a highlander-only deck.
The card is added to your hand, not summoned to the field. That's what "get" means. Basically, you always have minion in your hand (at least until you play it, at which point it becomes the Mirage again).
This might be easier to tell if Blizzard updated their gallery already!
I mean, Bats had like 4 games with varying degrees of "It's good" (and also Blackgate). But I have to agree that none have the same atmosphere that Asylum had.
The Staff of the 9 Frogs is a 2/9 that reads "After your hero attacks, summon a 1/1 Frog with Taunt. (each frog is bigger than the last)". So it certainly leaves up to the name. Wonder what happens if you re-equip the weapon, to the frogs keep growing?
Tram Mechanic is also the first non-Warlock/non-DH way for other classes to get a Fel spell, so that's a cool piece of trivia.
Mage has that one spell that lets them Discover from a spell school they haven't cast yet.
Personally, I really like the partners. They're an interesting twist on the KotFT Princes and require deckbuilding that kinda flattens your curve (assuming you want to build around them).
Glad you enjoy it! We're planning to have more of these types of articles from various members of the staff, so keep an eye out for those.
Not sure where you got that number for Stray, much as I enjoyed it, you can't really stretch it past 6 hours. Also, since when is 30 hours considered short?!
I based my "The other explorers aren't present here" off the blog post while not really paying attention the the promotional art. Though, like Zelgadis mentioned, he could be an enemy, so he's not "joining" her. I'm guessing he'll be a Rogue card this time around, curious if he'll also be highlander.
I'm curious if they'll implement something similar to Yu-Gi-Oh's Extra Deck. You can't put the cards there in the regular deck by any means, and they have special mechanics to get them on the board. Kinda similar to stuff Runi, Time Explorer, or even the new Excavate treasures, except you'd have a degree of control over card pool.
clears throat HI-FI RUSH GOT ROBBED!
If the trailer isn't revealed during the game awards, I'm changing my username to Nermal for a year.

On the one hand, I want Wishing Well to work with Counterfeit Coin. On the other hand, it'd be pretty thematic if it didn't.

Oooh, dice rolls! This should be fun mechanic, assuming it's not a one-off.
Doubt it. It just prevents higher costs from going up, doesn't increase existing ones. But we'll find out when it releases.
Forget the robots, did the kitty get reunited with their friends?

The Jailer didn't get nerfed. He got lobotomized!
Great to see Yogg getting his randomness back. Yeah, there were the tentacles, but it wasn't the same.
Where did you come from, where did you go? Where did you come from, Ogre Outlaw?
What are you talking about? This is a 3-mana 3/4, not a 6-mana 6/7 :P

Damn, almost same name too.
