    Yeah, but they re-released her for free in the shop when they changed the in-game shop to include Wild content.  Which I want to say was around Dec 10, 2019.  And I think they may have even put her back in the shop between then and now as well.  So most people who didn't just join in the last 5 or 6 months should have her.  Unless they took a long break from the game or ignored the previous free offering in the shop.

    I think Hero skins and card backs don’t show in the shop for you if you already have them.

    If that’s not true, it should be!

    That's why he's a FUN card, not a competitive card.

    I got a golden Yogg-Saron, Master of Fate through the mega bundle freebie and I had to try him out.  Made a Mage deck that is kind of a mix between the two recipes: Cyclone for lots of spell generation, secrets and Sayge, Seer of Darkmoon for a big draw engine.  Started off 5-1, but currently 5-6!  One of the losses was Rod of Roasting, both of us needing three hits, several minions on board!  But in my case I was behind.  Yogg instead teased me while we were both at 10 or less hp, one Pyroblast after another shot away from my face, only to hit a minion.  And then once the entire board was clear, he hit me in the face for lethal!

    I lost, but had a hell of a ride along the way!  :)

    I loved the Feat of Strength commentary that it’ll only ever see play in a Roffle deck, because he stated when opening packs how it’ll probably be a bad card, but he’s excited to try making a deck that uses it and Bolster.

    I run one copy of Faceless Corrupter in my current Odd Pally list, and honestly, it has saved me on multiple occasions!

    Either giving up a small minion or a dude to trade into a couple small things, or to double trade into a giant or something of similar stats.  It’s a great card!

    I have a few doubts about the new system as well, but I'm not ready to freak out just yet.  I know Blizz had their calculations and a lot of players have their own calculations.  I'm kind of in a "wait and see" mode.  They have guaranteed we should receive the same or more rewards, so if we don't then I'm hopeful they will make adjustments and possibly even BOOST XP for the second half or so of the expansion to help everyone catch back up to expected levels.

    Maybe I'm being too optimistic, but if they did overestimate how much people could earn, and then don't follow through on their promises, then they are choosing to kill the game by chasing away players after broken promises.  So again, would expect them to make those changes and offer some sort of apology gift to keep a high revenue game like Hearthstone going strong.

    While I appreciate this... you got me hyped for actual cookies!  And I don’t have any at the house.

    How I feel now.  (Volume warning)

    Chocolate Chip or M&M would be preferable.

    Hopefully Flux doesn't keep it due to Site Manager's privileges.

    Grand Empress Shek'zara and Jewel of N'Zoth.  Happy with both, but more excited about the epic, honestly!

    Maybe I missed this in the article, but any clue which of the portraits is the new collectible hero skin?  I assume the far left one.

    The Sideshow Glow card back, how long will it take to earn it?!?!

    A few hours... depending on what mode and deck you are playing.

    Roping... is exceptionally stupid.

    Fixed!  Some RenoLock in Wild was doing this  to me earlier and I'm sure he thought he had me at one point because I also decided to rope a turn.  But only because he had been roping all game, he was at 4 HP with a huge board, some of them big taunts, he had cleared my board, and I was top decking.  But unfortunately for him I top decked an Arcane Amplifier while playing an Odd Mage deck... again he was at 4 HP.

    I just wanted to give him some hope that I had rage quit before realizing he had lost!  Does that make me a bad person?!  Maybe... Don't judge me!

    It's permanent if you keep buying the Tavern Pass every expansion.  ;)

    It was definitely a bug, but the biggest question I had really was more what is that quest?  If no one has ever seen/heard of it before then perhaps it's an upcoming quest line from the expansion launch like I mentioned earlier.

    Haven't seen any data mining articles yet about launch quest lines, etc.  So maybe we'll see it when people go digging.
