We've got a new quest in today's patch that will be available in two weeks! Nozdormu Day finally gets some much-needed client support in a quest that will become available once per month on the 15th.
The quest, which rewards 1500 XP on the rewards track, will be added in an available daily quest slot. To complete the quest, you'll need to play 3 games with Nozdormu the Eternal in your starting deck.
Nozdormu Day will next occur on July 15, 2021. Are you excited to put Nozdormu in your deck this month?

At last!
Its not really a big deal. Most decks can just slot in Noz simply for the quest completion. Honestly, if there was a good chance to getting Noz to actually proct, most aggro-midrange decks would run him. Its only because of consistency that Noz never gets any love anywhere...until the next 15th anyway
curious to see how many of those matches are actually gonna be Noz vs Noz. specially cause i can only play after work, so im guessing most have completed the quest and ill be playing a 29 card deck
I typically play Noz all (or at least most) of the time I spend playing on the 15th, so just queue into me! Should be easy. :)
He's not the worst card really. I've even played him in Wild, which is harder to find a willing participant to match up with. I put him in decks where I have some "if you're holding a dragon" cards so he can just be the activator I never play.. Or if I've played Frizz then he's a 5 mana 8/8 dragon. Not bad! You could also run him in a Big/Duel Paladin.
Of course the suggestions I'm making are more meme than meta but whatever! I don't take this game too seriously so that it can remain fun and not burn me down. My only goal each month is Diamond in both formats, D5 if I can but it's not a necessity for me to call the month a success! But it's because I'm not pushing for Legend all the time that the decks I mentioned are viable to me.
I mean it should stay in your quest log, right? If you log in on 15th to get the daily quest. I expect most of the Noz matches to happen on 15th, but you never know :)
I wonder if this is the planned "in game notification" in form of a Quest, or if there will be something more. Somehow i think this is it, which i suppose is fine. It should definitely get ppl to play the card more on 15th.
Why on a daily quest slot? What is the extra slot supposed to be for?
It’s for Legendary quests which are quests you get once, and usually have bigger rewards.
This is a monthly recurring quest so it’s not in the Legendary Quest category. It’s more like a guaranteed 1500 xp quest each month, which after completing the rewards track that’s a 50gold quest…
Which is an entirely different issue for me! Going on a tangent here… Challenge a Friend used to award 80 gold. Spectate a Friend Win was a pack (100 gold). Now they are both 50 gold (when in bonus levels). Overall the new system is still much better, but when I think of it in those terms it irks me a little…
I've been having the same issue with the quests not being worth as much as they used to, but the weekly quests existence outweigh the loss of daily quest value, making the whole system seem better as we are generally getting more gold by the end of an expansion... But it is more work
Ben Brode approves.
