If it was 4 mana and like 1/6 or something maybe, but it's only 1 mana cheaper than Boulderfist and rarely going to be as good one one. Plus more unreliable.

Damn, that is one beautiful card back. So was this guy a professional Esports gamer or what? All of his cards were golden, so assuming he's hardcore. He wasexceptionallyobnoxious with emotes. So I'm guessing that card back (TESPA?) is for University kids in some professional scrub Esports gaming thing. He thought he was hot shit, worst emotes in a while. Good thing I owned him in a Priest mirror though, so satisfying. Lil shit.

Noxxious said GvG is coming out Dec 3rd, this is a guy that is good friends with Realz who now works for Blizzard... also Trump admited he knows the release date awhile back, and said something about not wanting to play Ladder for a few days this new season...

Who knows though.

Noob question, just redownloaded yesterday evening and buzzed through all the normal naxx wings (killed everyone on first time except patchwork with a warrior deck); I'm working on the class ones now. Does Heroic give more cards or just graphical upgrades to cards?

Also any suggestions on what a good deck to start getting back into playing may be? I quit a fairly long time ago but have about all the cards in the game give or take. I'm assuming the GvG will shake everything up but wouldn't mind something to start playing with, preferably not a rogue or priest deck.

I wouldn't be surprised to see it on Wednesday. If you remember Naxx launch didn't need a patch, they did it in advance and just turned it on at the time. Next week makes sense too though

I read that website, still doesn't tell you very much if you don't understand what all of that nonsense is. "Local chapters" and accomplishments "outside of Hearthstone" etc. etc. I watch Esports, but I don't know the terminology and all that inner workings shit well enough to understand that website.
It's an organization for american college students that are also gamers. I dont know if it's exclusively for Americans, but the only chapters are in America. If you go to the base webpage tespa.org it tells you more about them.

So as a new player, is it pretty much a done deal that i am going to have to buy the naxx stuff for 25 bones? Very hard to get gold if you cant win games, 0 naxx cards hurts a lot of decks.

I played Arena to get gold for Naxx.
That is not even remotely realistic for a new player.

@Moogalak, yeah, probably. Unless you want to play for about a week doing constructed + dailies and not spending any gold. That's how long it took me to save 700g, which was perfectly timed with the Naxx wing releases being every week. But yeah, you can do that, and it'll take about a week per 700g, or just buy it.

Buying Naxx for $25 is better than saving up the gold tbh.

Approx $1 = 75 Gold (1 Arena entry = $1.99 or 150 gold)

Is it 3500 or 2800 gold to unlock Naxx now? In either case:
3500 gold = ~$47 (23 arena runs or ~40 card packs)
2800 gold = ~$37 (~19 arena runs or ~30 card packs)

40 card packs are sold for $49.99 ($1.25/pack)
15 card packs are sold for $19.99 ($1.33/pack)

Ya as another noob, I've been wondering which would be a better use of my money in the long run - $25 for Naxx or $20 for 15 card packs? I guess you are at least guaranteed legendaries with Naxx and you can't craft what you need until you purchase it.
