Missing card reveal

Submitted 4 years, 9 months ago by

There was supposed to be a reveal a few hours ago, i don't see it anywhere on the site. The art looked like azari the devourer, does anyone know why it wasn't shown yet?

    The site that was supposed to reveal it tweeted that their reveal is in fact scheduled for tomorrow. We'll update the time they gave to our reveal widget soon(tm).

    Probably Blizzard, since they had it on the official site wrong. Doubt the Japanese site would just publicly blame Blizzard for their own fuck up.

    I don't know how these things work behind the scenes, but due to the regular and relatively even cadence of reveals I assume that Blizzard are the ones that schedule when reveals should happen, not the individual revealers? With that in mind, a site like this (I don't know them, language barriers and all that) could conceivably have people checking their site all day for a reveal......... and oh, oops, sorry everyone it's actually tomorrow, you'll have to come and check our site all day AGAIN.

    Maybe I'm cynical, but given the fairly obvious ad revenue bump the increase in traffic would cause, seems they would have a pretty good financial incentive, and since 'accidents happen', can try to avoid ongoing penalties from Blizzard. Unlikely we'll ever know, but I'd have to give benefit of the doubt to the organisation without the financial incentive to delay.

    Blizz messed up reveals in the past, so thats why im not surprised that they would do it again. Also the site didnt seem to advertize "hey, we are revealing the card in 1 hour" and then nothing and only when ppl started calling them out tweet that "oh sorry, it is scheduled for tomorrow".

    What i think happened is, they got the card, they got the time when to reveal it and then whoever made the official reveal schedule messed up that reveal by 1 days. Like you said, shit happens.
