Is madness a small mid season expansion? If so, why are they selling an 80 pack bundle? I'm all for shaking up the meta but it just seems like more nickel and diming folk. Sure commons and rares are fine but it's getting harder to keep up with all the epics and legendaries.

What has Blizzard said about the battlepass if anything?

Darkmoon Faire is my favourite WoW zone so I'm super stoked for this set's atheistic  Also just lore curious, I remember Deathwing is tied to N'zoth but was Galakrond ever affiliated with the Old Gods?

Why is there a "progression and rewards revamp" date set? Does that literally exist so they can head off criticism of the rewards system off at the pass by or what? If so, that's pretty smart/funny. Otherwise why not release it with the revamped system if you already know what the revamp is going to be??

N'zoth's voice is super cool. god i hope a decent warlock deck reappears. Anyone know if he has spell voice lines? I'm kinda tempted.

Probably because of major revision/minor revision software release cycle philosophy. Tying in this system change with the major set release seems apropos.

So I have to pre-purchase packs in order to play EA Duels? Welp, hard pass. Should at least have let people play Casual to try it out or offered it as a side-cost. Literally no interest in forking out for packs.

C’thun seems really good. I don’t see why any deck that isn’t hyper aggro or combo wouldn’t run it. And the Tavern pass isn’t included with the big pack pre order? Really?

Even on the webpage dedicated to the new rewards track they are skirting around the pricepoint of the Tavern Pass. I almost expect it to be 19.99 or even 24.99 (lol), considering that it will give you a golden Silas Darkmoon card, 3 Thrall and Jaina hero portraits (probably 1 each that can be upgraded twice), an alternate Warrior hero and matching card back as well as one of the new coin cards (if you complete all 50 levels). The only other battle pass I ever bought was for Apex Legends, which basically pays for itself/the next season's pass and has 100+ cosmetic items. It was $10. Well, we'll see, I guess.

After playing the new mode a few times I'm not sure what to think. I love dungeon runs and I like the idea of making them pvp but too many times either player gets the perfect opening and there's literally nothing to do. If that was already a problem in arena it is even worse here.

Duels apparently does Ban cards for anyone who was curious, was surprised to pick Rogue and see that Self-Sharpening Sword had a big banner on it saying it's Banned.

From what was said in the quests the dragonflights banded together and killed him at least before Deatgwing's corruption if not the old gods resurgence.

Duels is so incredibly unbalanced. That's fine in a Solo mode or Tavern brawl, but in a mode against other players, for significant rewards, that costs Gold to enter, it's not very fun.

And with so little time investment, it's not like making it free to play will be much better, slamming concede in early rounds until you're looking at one of the Tier 1 treasures.

I'm a little fatigued of Hearthstone right now, but the Darkmoon Faire is one of my favorite things in WoW and I've always been waiting for them to do a Hearthstone set based on it... I can't escape.
