    Here go my hopes of tagging along in case you ever got that personal invite from Bobby, and having a chance to capture that yacht for ourselves.

    Good call! Although I personally didn't think it would end up being the exact same.

    I'd assume so, yes. That's what happened with the recent expansions, when they retired runs by making it a new season. Not guaranteed to happen, but likely. I'd hope they might tell us ahead of time for a change, but maybe better safe than sorry.

    And you would be right, the two are not quite the same. Thanks for catching that, now fixed! That one is also on me (somebody was too sleepy when prepping things late at night), not Avalon.

    I don't know how much competence is required in order to get that to work, but it sounded like the full PC support might still be a few months away.

    Hmm, are you absoutely certain you entered to participate in the contest back when it was underway? If yes and the reward still hasn't arrived by Tuesday (when they open up with a new season), it should be worth reporting. Their in-game support is also mobile-only annoyingly, but their Discord works as well.

    And here I thought I'd replied before. Loved this little reference, made me go look up the poem.

    So have I, the second one took slightly longer to arrive. Updated everything accordingly, that should be about it for this event.

    It actually all goes back to the story of Warcraft 3 campaign, where Arthas invaded Silvermoon and killed/turned Sylvanas into a Banshee. The rest, as they say, is history. Although technically he wasn't a full-fledged Lich King at that point, just Hearthstone likes to play fast and loose with the lore.

    Final Update: After over a day of delay, the Hallow's End celebration packs from the now finished Twitch Drops campaign finally started reaching their intended recipients. Whatever issue prevented the pack distribution must've been resolved. Make sure you have manually claimed the rewards on Twitch and then log into the game region you prefer!

    You know, I'm not sure. My client got frozen when I went to log in after claiming the first drop (which might've skipped the notification), and annoyingly I don't remember what was my Nathria pack count before that. Will know for certain with the second pack, seeing as it's from the next expansion.

    Update: Most everyone reporting on the Blizzard forums that no packs have yet been received.

    Such an oddity, but good to know that it works either way! It also looks like we've actually had a number of confused and forgetful streamers who failed to enable drops/campaign on their channels. This should be less and less of a problem going forward.

    Yeah, same. Really threw me off at first. They must've changed something since it's never been the case for me before.

    Yep, I had the same issue with one stubborn event quest before (it did work properly now), although my deckbuilding and other aspects of the game seemed to work fine, if a little laggy. Compared to people whose clients and games were freezing, definitely lucked out.

    I see what you mean, but I also see how it could be misread. :P

    I like that analogy, feeling very overloaded indeed.

    And we can always pretend it's somebody else under that helm! What if Bolvar, Fireblood just regrew some hair (don't change my Lich King into some ugly Satyr, Blizzard).

    Afraid not. That skin will be a part of the upcoming separate bundle that you can (pre-)purchase (starting November 8 and at least until the end of the year). Naturally not usable until Death Knight actually arrives, so no need to worry about it just yet.

    That was my feeling as well re: Signature cards. It took me an embarrasingly long amount of time to realize that Invincible is the same Neutral card that's already been revealed. For class cards, there is a small colored section indicating where it belongs, below the card type tag. But it's not easy to tell at a glance.

    Thank you (and everyone else who's expressed such notions), that's very uplifting to hear. As far as unexpected 'SNAFUs' go, this might've been the most painful one. Hopefully given a day or two more everything will be smoothed out, and we will be all caught up (and then some). 

    I do agree about Death Knight, it does seem like the most layered additon to the game yet. Will definitely give creative deckbuilders something to think about! I'm actually somewhat amazed they went there, not being afraid it might be too complex for their new or casual players (this is almost not an 'extra deck slots' joke).

    Interesting insights indeed, thanks for letting us know! So many videos and interviews going out and about, not easy to keep up with everything.
