Damn, that sucks. No way they do anything about it for people who already opened their packs tho.

 

[Dre]

This expansion has been very poorly handled by Blizzard, they really need to step their game up.

First there was no unique cardback for preorders then during the reveal we had those stupid bars and now this tri-class bug with the packs.

 

[suaveric]

162 packs, 30 Epics, 4 of which were dupes and 9 Legends with one dupe. Not too bad. An insane amount of dust too, about 7,000.

 

[Owzers]

they could just give people a few extra free packs....they could....laugh at my dupes and having dusted them.

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

EU release date delayed by 1 day thanks to the bug.

are you kidding me?

 

[inky]

I mean, I only opened 50 packs. Like last time I only got 1 leg, but I did notice my dust count to be higher than I was expecting. I'm sitting at around 6k. I didn't check how it was before I opened them, but it wasn't nearly as close to that.

 

[Drkirby]

Ok, got a Kazakus, getting somewhere.

Hey lay off Blizzard they are a small indie developer! Its not like they have any experience in handling the launch of like say a big MMO. I mean there just was not enough money in the budget to actually test things or make a nice card back for people that preorder.

 

[Q8D3vil]

For once im glad EU is getting it later with all the pack opening issues.

 

[ZealousD]

The interesting thing about the tri-class bonus is that it might apply to the seasonal reward chest too. I did get a golden Jade Spirit.... lol

 

[Oscar]

Opened 50 packs.

Notable pulls:

- Golden Auctionmaster Beardo
- Kazakus
- Shaku
- Golden Grimestreet Enforcer
- Golden Drakonid Operative

1k dust from dupes.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

28 Kabal Chemist
25 Jade Spirit
3 Kazakus

Thanks Blizzard.

 

[wiibomb]

I want to hold off opening packs, that bonus isn't good for a person looking to open cards from a collection. I'm not looking to craft a lot because of the load of dupes

 

[Owzers]

28 Kabal Chemist
25 Jade Spirit
3 Kazakus

Thanks Blizzard.

dust all your dupes now, join us.

 

[hollomat]

Does arena now drop mean streets of gadgetzan as the pack?

Insane value

 

[Papercuts]

Just made 9/9 dopplegansters and blew a hunter out of a game, lol.

Wickerflame was really solid there as well, he unleashed but each dog trading gave me 2hp.

 

[CoolOff]

Does arena now drop mean streets of gadgetzan as the pack?

Yes.

 

[ZeroX03]

Uh so I should be buying packs right now or not?

 

[inky]

Checking my collection: Jade Spirit: 9+ copies. Cabal Chemist: 9+ copies. Grimstreet Smuggler: 8 copies. Cabal Courier: 7 copies. Every other non-tri class card: none to 2-3 copies. 5 Red Mana Wyrm copies is the exception.

My 2 legendaries were Kazakus and Aya, which are tri-class too.

Definitely feels disproportionate for only a ~50 packs sample.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

Uh so I should be buying packs right now or not?

Why not?

 

[SodiumBenzoate]

Opened 103 packs before I got fed up with the insane amount of Jade spirits and checked Reddit. Not opening more until they fix this.

Opened 4 legendaries and only 1 was a Tri-Class so I think I got pretty lucky compared to a lot of other people.

Good thing there were no Tri Class epics!

 

[hollomat]

Yes.

Thanks. I normally hold off on constructed the first few weeks after these expansions and just stick to arena. That way I get to see and play all the new cards without wasting dust crafting any cards since I'll probably get them in packs.

That being said, I am sitting on 27k dust.

 

[georly]

Why not?

because it currently gives too large of a bonus to opening tri-class cards.


Is there a normal bonus for opening 'class' cards? Is it possible tri-class cards triple this bonus accidentally?

 

[manhack]

Riot incoming.

Jade Druid is kinda bull shit son. Control decks are now officially dead.


I am playing Malygos Druid with a single copy of Jade Idol... demolished two control decks with a single card. I don't have to care about over drawing in match ups, I got max ham with Gadgetan.

The good news is you can beat jade druid before they go ham pretty easily. Goons seems like a great counter in my opinion.

Still too early to say of course

 

[wiibomb]

first pack I openened and got a brass knucles... loved it.

I only opened 1 pack in case blizzard somehow compensates the people who opened pack during this weird bug.

of course I got a try class card.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

Cant find the preorder button on the eu store...

Oh lame... I got like so many tri class cards too... and no legends in 39 packs.

 

[BlackBuzzard]

Oh lame... I got like so many tri class cards too... and no legends in 39 packs.

Welcome to the club there are ppl that got 7 smugglers in 11 packs.

 

[Levi]

Oh lame... I got like so many tri class cards too... and no legends in 39 packs.

I went 39 in a row without a leg as well. Overall pretty unhappy with my packs.

 

[Farewell]

EU release date delayed by 1 day thanks to the bug.

Uh source? Couldn't find this info.

Also Blizzard should really refund some of the money or give free packs at least, i mean it's like the NA is beta testing this shit.

 

[hollomat]

That seems like really awful luck for you two. I'm pretty sure the max packs you can open without a legendary is 39 due to the pity timer.

 

[Pooya]

It's funny how they even admit how rigged their pack system is and no one riots.

what do I do with these shit packs. I lost all enthusiasm for this expansion.

60 packs 2 legendary, 30 kabal chemists, yeah I'm not wasting anymore on packs. done.

 

[bjaelke]

Uh source? Couldn't find this info.

Also Blizzard should really refund some of the money at least, i mean it's like the NA is beta testing this shit.

He was joking. The release date for EU was confirmed yesterday - before the bug was even known.

 

[snack]

That seems like really awful luck for you two. I'm pretty sure the max packs you can open without a legendary is 39 due to the pity timer.

What timer?

 

[Karsticles]

Personally, I think it makes more sense to wait to open your packs until they fix the tricard issue.

 

[Professor Lich]

Cant find the preorder button on the eu store...

I think that ended today, so you had to pre-order by yesterday, but I can't say for sure.

 

[slightconfuse]

What timer?

If you buy 39 packs and the first 38 have no legendary. The 39 one will automatically have one

 

[Dart]

So just got back from class and started opening my card packs, so apparently, there is an issue with too many tri-card cards?.... damn should have checked online first

I have like 13 unopened card packs left, at least I opened 3 legend even though they were not the ones I wanted: Warlock legend, Aya, and Rouge legend

 

[ZealousD]

Somebody said on Kripp's chat that with Mayor Noggenfogger, even your emotes are chosen randomly.

Hilarious if true.

 

[ricelord]

open 77 packs and some how got all three tri class legendary cards.

i guess thats find.

edit: the packs are rigged? lol was also getting a shit ton of tri cards .

 

[BlackBuzzard]

Uh source? Couldn't find this info.

Also Blizzard should really refund some of the money or give free packs at least, i mean it's like the NA is beta testing this shit.

Its a joke but remember when Americans bought the wrong packs it delayed the EU launch of GVG, atleast this time Americans clicking the wrong packs aren't at fault.

 

[Professor Lich]

Somebody said on Kripp's chat that with Mayor Noggenfogger, even your emotes are chosen randomly.

Hilarious if true.

I'll have to test it out and confirm that.

 

[Papercuts]

I played grimesteet informant and discovered don'han cho with it...so the legendaries count as a class card for the discover effect.

...but it happened twice in a row. I wonder if they're inflated for discover right now too.

 

[bjaelke]

Somebody said on Kripp's chat that with Mayor Noggenfogger, even your emotes are chosen randomly.

Hilarious if true.

True. Had the fortune of playing him in Tavern Brawl after reading about it on reddit. Also changes the attack arrow.

 

[Dahbomb]

Playing Renolock right now.

Decklist is probably really unoptimized because I am playing a crap ton of the new cards for testing.

Mistress of Pain, Kabal Chemist, Kazakus, Felfire Potion, Kabal Courier, Blastcrystal, Abyssal Enforcer etc.

 

[Nirolak]

I wonder if the packs have a boosted chance of opening class cards and thus the tri-class cards get three boosts added together.

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

Watched some streamers and the reaction when he realized he couldn't fatigue his opponent on druid was gold. Auctioneer + Jade Idol + 0 cards in the deck...

 

[Cat Party]

Somebody said on Kripp's chat that with Mayor Noggenfogger, even your emotes are chosen randomly.

Hilarious if true.

Lmao this is the best card ever made.

 

[RumblingRosco]

I wonder if the packs have a boosted chance of opening class cards and thus the tri-class cards get three boosts added together.

My understanding is that they count each version of the tri-class cards as an individual card, so each tri-class card takes up 3 slots in the random number generator, basically tripling the odds of getting them over a comparable rarity card.
