Fireside Gatherings for this weekend's pre-release of Scholomance Academy are live starting today!
If you want to open your Scholomance Academy packs early so you can start thinking about which decks you really want to build, this weekend was built for you. Today at 1 PM Eastern (10 AM Pacific, 19:00 CEST), the Scholomance Academy pre-release event begins and will let you open your packs early.
- You can open packs from both Scholomance Academy pre-order bundles.
- You cannot purchase additional packs with money or gold. (That is when the expansion launches next week)
- You cannot craft cards.
Scholomance Academy launches next week on August 6. What awesome stuff did you open in your packs?

Public Gatherings are disabled anyway, you can only create private events for yourself (and friends if they are in the same place as you).
For anyone who's done the pre-release events before: can you ONLY open packs, or can you also craft cards? I always craft one golden legendary before I open my packs, so if I can't do that, I'll just wait until Thursday to do anything. Thanks!
Question: Why do people want to craft a golden legendary first? Is there something I've been doing wrong? D:
If there is a specific golden legendary you want to craft, you should do it first because of how legendary protection works. Legendary protection prevents you from opening up a duplicate legendary card until you've opened all legendaries for that particular set.
I appreciate the knowledge. What about FireSide Gatherings though? If I host one at my house for just myself (because of Covid-19), will I only be able to open packs or will I be able to play online in a specific tavern brawl or something? I don't want to host one JUST to open my packs, you know? Lol.
Only open your packs. No online allowed =(
Good reminder, I've made a note that you can't craft cards.
The whole reasoning behind it is so everyone that attends is on an even playing field of RN... at least that's my assumption.
No, you can't craft anything sadly.
