    In the past, I don't think they did a reset except for the start of a new Standard year or the start/end of a special Arena event.  I wasn't expecting a free ticket for this time around, however, I went ahead and started one anyway because I had the free tickets from the deluxe pre-purchase.  The 4 Arena Tickets from that bundle are available to be used as soon as you buy the bundle.

    So either way I'm probably getting the same rewards I would have from that ticket regardless if I started the run now or after tomorrow.

    My personal “most under hyped card” was [Hearthstone Card (Skull of the Man’ari) Not Found].  At the time I hadn’t been playing much Warlock, and probably not paying super close attention to the upcoming cards, but I just didn’t see it’s potential.  Boy was I so wrong!!!  But then again, now that I am thinking about it I don’t remember it really taking off until Kobolds anyway with Cube and Void Daddy coming out.

    It also happened to be my free Legendary Weapon at the Knights launch, so eventually I was happy to have it

    I still run a Spell Hunter from time to time in Wild.  Mainly as a way to quickly clear the “play spells” gold quest.

    I bet you're right that it was supposed to come out after the expansion release.  Which is nice because I can wait to see how many legendaries I still need/want.  With the 85 pack bundle, 5 from last month's end of season rewards, and the gold I have saved I will have around 200 packs to open on Thursday.  With those packs, the dust I have, and a bit of luck I should have almost everything.

    If I do get this though, it would guarantee me three legendary minions as I've only ever opened around 6 of the Year of the Dragon packs, and I am pretty sure I didn't get a legendary yet.  Unless the "Year" packs don't guarantee one in the first ten.  Then never mind what I just said.

    I don’t remember specifically when but I had a meme Priest deck that used a few resurrection cards, cheap copy cards, and Herald Volazj to make 4 Ragnaros the Firelords and just let them rain down fire!  It was never very good, but around the second Fire Festival I remade it using Big Priest’s shell to not only make 3-4 Rags, but also drop a Drakkari Enchanter to double up on the fun!  No Volajz used in the new version though.

    I'm actually really excited about this card.  It could be really good.

    When you think about this plus Gibberling... it's still okay.

    I like it.  Which I have to say so I don't get hurt.  I don't want any trouble! :)

    No, really.  This could be a really good pull from Commencement.

    This ghost mechanic seems fun.  Stealth Rogue support.

    Everything related to Soul Fragments is something I will play for sure.  And this is the big payoff card!   5 stars!

    Very strong effect with the heal being at the end of the turn.

    1 star trash bat.  It's like if Hi'reek was easier to buff but didn't fill your board!

    Not sure about this one.  Maybe if you only run a few, 5 mana beasts.  For example, Twilight Runner and Lake Thresher.  One rushes in to clear some enemies, the other can also trade to remove a minion while also drawing two more cards.  After that, fill the rest of your deck with non-beast minions and spells.

    I enjoy that they are doing these "class" cards, as in Freshmen, Sophomore, etc.  This one could be really good, and the stealth helps it stick until you can cast a spell to gain the spellburst.  If the spell that triggers the effect is small enough you could get the generated combo card off right away.

    It's a good card.  I always like when we get interesting call backs to old cards, and this is one of those for sure.
