3400 dust, nice. Thank you golden Bloodboil Brute.
Conveniently for me, I unpacked Hanar the other day so I'm probably going to scrap him for someone else since I stopped playing rouge recently
+5040 dust for extra copies, nice.
I think I may have had around 5 copies of Crimson Sigil Runner about a week ago but then DE all of my excess cards to craft something. Now I wish I had waited for the nerfs.
