What's the best way to gift my girlfriend some packs? My account has my Paypal and debit card tied to it already, if I try to add my debit card/Paypal to her HS account as well, will I have any authentication issues? My shit is all US and her's is EU. I googled gifting packs, but all I can find are physical gift cards. Ideally she would log on and see the packs as a surprise, without me actually having to tell her I wanted to get her some packs. I so wish you could gift gold. You should be able to go to your battle.net account page and straight up send another account funds/gold. Is the only way to do it to tell her and physically do it with her? Also, is there any amazon coin deal still going?

Well, the only way I can think of is asking for her to tie her Paypal to her HS account, which she hasn't done, and then sending her Paypal funds without her knowing it and then buying packs on her computer. That I can do easily, but asking for her to tie her Paypal account to her HS account is obvious. Ah well. Actually going to get her Naxx instead of packs, since that will provide her with much more entertainment.

Next brawl:
Tavern Brawl - Week 4 - The Great Summoner Competition - Hearthstone Top Decks
Tavern Brawl - Week 4 - The Great Summoner Competition - Hearthstone Top Decks
Sounds like a build-your-own this time to me.

Really? I just figured it worked like that's the CC you use to pay or something.

Sounds cool, Druid/Mage/Priest seem strong late game classes as they each have 10-mana spells & a bunch of higher costing spells. Rogue/Warrior/Hunter would probably be more aggro-style. Paladin could go either way, tons of 1-mana secrets but also some 8 mana spells too. Shaman idk

definitely sounds like their best brawl yet, but the whole implementation seems dumb and lazy. Here's how I would have done Brawl.
Brawls last two weeks (5 days is a bit short for this idea)
One time fee of cash or gold (obviously encouraging people to spend cash while still trying to milk gold out of the system) for full entry into each brawl
At the end of each brawl, awards are handed out based on your overall performance, with people being ranked roughly similar to how the legend ranks work. Bottom 50% or so gets about a bit less than they would have gotten if they had just bought packs, similar to if you scrub out right away in an arena run.
Give quite a bit of bonus ranking based on someone's total games played somehow, so that someone who swoops in for a quick 10-0 isn't necessarily guaranteed a spot in the 1% award bracket, and someone who enthusiastically plays 100+ games with a fairly crummy win ratio isn't automatically condemned to the bottom bracket.
*edit*
Massan is brawling. His opponent, from 3 mana spells, got Felguard, Injured Blademaster, and King Mukla. He won anyway because Shaman sucks, but holy shit was it hilarious.

Yup. It's a very simple/easy system that tons of F2P games do, particularly F2P mobile games. I play a few where there are events very equivalent to Tavern Brawl, but you are rewarded at the end for your overall performance. My favorite is an event in Star Wars: Commander (A Clash of Clans type game) where there are prizes for finishing top 50%, top 30%, top 7% and top 2%. You are encouraged and motivated to play more and to play well during these tournaments, and it gets people spending money too, while actually enjoying themselves. It's also awesome to see yourself on the leaderboard of said event, which TB could easily implement, further motivating people to play them and to give purpose to them for the more hardcore crowd. There is no reason whatsoever that you can't appeal to the casuals like my girlfriend that just started a couple weeks ago but loves Tavern Brawl and has to read her cards over and over every game, as well as top ranked streamers that want to see themselves on a leaderboard etc.
My first game and first turn as Druid:
Edit: Yeah, this TB is going to be fun, lots of potential here and lots of ingenuity. It's random as fuck, obviously, but it'll be fun, at least so far.

Im actually gonna use this brawl to level up druid and maybe priest
Good Idea. I need to level up Priest. Edit2: Speaking of Priest in this TB, may as well concede if you play against one, that shit is twice as painfully slow as constructed Control Priest.
I was losing this game almost all the way up to the end. And then I got some shenanigans with Nourish and Innervate:
