People recognized right away that it was easy to kill Bolf without taking retaliation damage. You could send an army of weenies at the enemy face, kill Bolf and not lose a single minion. People have wanted a spell taunt since beta and this was their solution but it wasn't very good.

There was a little discussion, but I think there was a general agreement that being able to kill him for free by just going face made him useless. Now if he'd also had taunt, then he might have been a pretty damn good card.

Weren't people predicting that bolf was going to be a decent card before launch?
Well you might actually see him now with Loatheb gone. Depends how prevalent Mage decks are though. Probably still won't be played, but maybe! He's your only viable tech choice against spells now.

And I'm pretty sure most people knew he was going to be bad simply because he can be killed for free. Only favorable side is he helps against spell damage, but against minions he's trash.

Haha speaking of the Boogeymonster, a friend just opened one as the first legendary any of my friends have opened. I unfortunately cannot get to the shop, too much lag!#

Anyone else hang at the first screen for a few minutes before the game starts? I got the new intro that shows standard, but can't do anything else. Clearly some of my friends are fine. I can see my friends list and people opening legendaries, but can't get past the main screen.

I've been hanging on main loading screen twice, then get DC'd. But, yeah, while hanging I can see what people open. Run faster, hamsters!

I managed to get the quest for 2 Standard Wins to get 5 Old God packs but that's it. Btw someone said there were 13 total free packs? I thought it was 10?

Edit: Finally back in, but I can't click anything lol. And arena is greyed out. Opened my first pack from the 3 free ones: Twin Emperor

you get 3 free for logging in and then there are 2 quests. 1 gives 7 and the next gives 3 more giving a total of 13.
