Mathematically this is superior to the 2 mana version.

You are losing the same amount of stats but this doesn't die to hero power and you can potentially get a second tick.

But the issue with this card is that it comes out at a stage when you have probably used a lot of your cards. Maybe you can use it late game by using the 3 mana draw card into this.

I think the 2 mana one is stronger since you're committing less mana to the effect, making it easier to hit your small time recruits and then you're also able to use the minions the same turn. Every minion you play the same turn as the 5 mana won't get buffed.

 

[NBtoaster]

Just got my TGT packs. Only 2 though, don't remember who I voted for.

 

[Yaboosh]

Damn you thijs!

 

[Xanathus]

Got 3 for voting for Amnesiac. I voted for him purely from the deck lineups and have never watched him stream or play. If I could have changed votes during the 2nd phase I probably would have picked someone else based on what decks everyone chose to bring.

$50 of Amazon Coins for $25 for accounts that have never purchased coins before. It is a better deal than preordering by quite a bit.

Thanks for posting this..

I guess I'll need to make a new account just for this

That's why I said mathematically and not actually better. The 2 mana card is likely to hit more targets one time. But tempo loss at 2 mana is more severe than at 5 mana.

Same but for Hotmeowth. Would've switched with the swiftness after seeing that 0-4 Giant Warrior deck lol.

Can I take part in Amazon sales and Amazon coins if I'm in Canada?

 

[fertygo]

wait why I didn't get my pack

Just create an account in US and buy from that one in .com

You can switch accounts on the amazon appstore, so you can buy from multiple amazon accounts while being on the same blizzard account.

Gotcha. That said, this won't be useful for buying the new expansion pre-order, eh? It's all only pre-orderable straight through Blizzard this time?

Unfortunately supposedly the account had to be created and have a purchase prior to today to be eligible. This one will be hard to abuse sadly.

Lucky for me I made an account to abuse the twitch prime promotion and get Tyrande hah.


This is no good for preordering but 40 packs for $25 is far better than 50 packs for $50.

 

[ricelord]

Got 3 packs =D

I could see buff Paladin being a thing if they like reprinted Minibot or something. As it stands it's just too risky to buff anything without some kind of protection. You make something a 6/6 it still gets balled, value is not in your favor.

I think I'm eligible for that Amazon coin promo, but I'm not exactly loving HS enough to throw money in...

 

[wiibomb]

Yeah, this won't work on that unfortunately since there is no way to access those purchases with the amazon appstore, only the HS shop since it can be accessed from the app obtained in the appstore.

Oh! Good I had 2 accounts I made before, so I will be buying with one of them.

I'll be "abusing" the referral program for even more packs. $60 for $15 is a lot of value, even if they are spread

When that new Priest Dragon was played and Discovered... well I felt for the Pally player for sure.

US

 

[QFNS]

Got my 6 from my boy Pavel. Got 1 golden epic so that's probably a win. Rest was garbage, but it's TGT so what do you expect.

 

[bjaelke]

I got them on all my accounts now.

why I'm not getting any pack, fuck am I forgot to click or something

Oh, this is an old video. I remember the double BOK on the 3 drop that got silenced. Seems like a weak play vs any priest, even one not running silence.

This looks like the demo that I played at Blizzcon. The names were the same and the decks look similar.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

Damn, I just had the dream for dragon paladin. I had both deathwings in hand, plus a ysera, and 2 other dragons, and the warlock conceded (he was dead on board anyway).

Both deathwings and ysera were from historians.

I really like this deck btw:

I haven't gotten mine either, but I'm on mobile not sure if it matters.

I force closed the app and it showed up when I launched it again.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

They said the packs won't be delivered all at once. Maybe they're doing in pick by pick, as in all pavel winners got theirs first and thijs got theirs last (I haven't gotten mine yet).

I did that. Nothing happens

Same. I chose Thijs too

 

[zoukka]

Meh that enforcer is pretty much unplayable.

Keep in mind they just gave paladin a lot of card draw with small time recruits. I think it may be playable because of that.

 

[patchday]

yeah still waiting on my packs from bbgungun. my friend and I that voted for him spotted him walking around (blizzcon). But it would've been a hassle to catch up with him and it would've been an awkward convo (hey man you lost us our packs yo)

 

[zoukka]

Yeah but that late in the game those 1-mana minions become more and more irrelevant. Not to mention you would need to draw them and not play them while having a vanilla 4/4 somehow alive on the board.

We can't 100% say it won't work, but in theory all of this sounds very gimmicky. The 2 mana hand buff is better.

 

[scarlet]

Ah well 40 dust from Thijs.

 

[spoon!]

Got lightbane from my packs. Thanks hotmeowth!

 

[Heropon]

Got Chillmaw from my Thijs pack. I was so happy to see a second legendary after depleting the pity counter in my last TGT pack but then it's a duplicate and I only have three TGT legendaries. Agh, now I remember why I hate that expansion.

Well, 425 dust for free, yay!

Which reminds me that you should buy TGT packs until you get a legendary just before TGT rotates out in order to exploit the pity legendary counter.

Dude Chillmaw is good, its everyone dream leg from TGT to get without crafting

especially with Dragon Priest gonna good very soon

 

[Lagspike_exe]

How much will a golden rare be worth when tgt is cycled out? 400 dust?

Dust values don't change when sets rotate out because they can still be used in Wild.

Another one of these? Seriously?
It has the same problem the other card has: It's a bad tempo play.Also. in oder to make this effect consistently good you also need a lot of draw,which means you lose even more tempo.
Maybe a deck like this can work, simply because bliizard is pushing it so hard, but I'm not seeing that right now.
The 1/2 "draw a card if it has 2 attack or" more card would work really well in this deck, but I don't think that's enough,

I got it a year ago, I was just complaining about duplicates. I haven't been really lucky with them in TGT compared to Old Gods. I got Dreadscale, Dreadscale, Chillmaw, Fjola, Chillmaw. With Old Gods I haven't got any duplicates yet: Volazj, Soggoth, Huhuran, Y'Shaarj, Twin Emperors and Yogg-Saron N'Zoth.

Have you seen small time recruits? Draw 3 1 cost minions from your deck for 3 mana. It's a 3 mana nourish. That is a ton of card draw really I think people underestimate it because it's 1 cost minions. That 1/2 1 mana card will definitely be useful since you can tutor for it and then buff it, at that point it's a 2/3 1 mana hoarder or better.

 

[veryslowhand]

A golden Common and a golden rare in my four packs, thanks Pavel.

 

[Raxus]

Is there a way to purchase the 60 pack with amazon coins?

Small Time Recruits is obviously great but would you really run it over/alongside Divine Favor?

Probably over divine favor.

Still no Handsomeguy packs. Bleh.

All these +1/+1 to stuff in your hand cards are bad in the same way Mistcaller is bad.

Didn't GVG and Naxx get 4X dusting boost when they rotated out? Or is my memory failing me.
