Legendary card back for wild

Just wondering what others thought about getting an alternative 'wild-themed' card back for hitting legend in wild.  It could just be a re-work of the usual one with a few more wild-esque flourishes.

As a mainly standard, occasional wild player, I think I might be more motivated to try and hit legend in wild if it resulted in an alternative card back.

Thoughts?

  • Then you'd play the format for one season, get the card back and (most likely) never return. That doesn't seem very effective.

    The idea I support most, if Blizzard truly wanted to have more people play wild, is to give separate ladder rewards for the wild ladder. Perhaps even in the form of wild-only cards and packs. This would make people play wild ladder more consistently.

  • I like both of these ideas, honestly. Wild comes with a unique set of challenges, so it would be fitting for it to have a unique set of rewards to accomplishing them. I tend to play wild most often myself, although I've yet to get past Platinum 5 at the highest so far.

      A fair point, but I still think it would be nice to have a visual signifier of having hit legend in a different format. Would surely cost Blizz very little.

      I agree about alternative rewards too - it's not that hard to get all the rare cards in standard now, so I'd be delighted if you also got wild rares at the end of a season rather than loads of standard dupes. Having wild rewards specific to wild would be ace!
