Maybe? Personally I have huge FOMO, so I've always been reluctant to spend common/rare wildcards right before Tuesday or a big region reward chest, but I really appreciate the logic behind your argument here.
I would say ultimately, it probably doesn't matter too much. E.g. say "hypothetically" you were sitting on 161 common wildcards. Scenario A: you convert them all just to fill out your collection; Scenario B: you do never use them. After a long enough time period, Scenario B would get exactly those 161 commons for free whereas Scenario A converts them to 15 shards/ea; any duplicates after those 161 would generate the same 15 shards/ea to both. That means the total difference between the two scenarios is 2,415 shards i.e. 80% of a single champion craft. And of course that's contingent on receiving an additional 161 non-wildcard commons of exactly the type you crafted; if they aligned perfect that could be ~5 weeks but in practice it will look more like an exponential decay graph where Scenario A nets fewer and fewer additional shards over Scenario B each week--probably months before even hitting the 2,000 mark.
I forget the refund rate for rares, but I imagine its not too much better. I interpret this all to mean that I shouldn't our hypothetical friend shouldn't feel at all reluctant to spend common and rare wildcards on any cards he actually intends to play, but spending them just to spend them only has a minimal strategic shard advantage and that you definitely want to have some in reserve by the time the next expansion is released.
Interesting.. I did not really do the math, did not really research how much refund I get for which rarity, I went with my gut feelings.. I guess I will put the numbers together and try to evaluate again.
I believe that I am not the only one that has tons of Common and Rare wildcards but just a few Epic and Champion wildcards. I guess that it will always be like this, that the two most rare types of cards will be bottleneck for deck building. Considering that I can craft Epics and Champions also for shards, does it make sense to use all my Rare and Common wildcards for something that I do not have? After that, when I will open the Common/Rare that I already have, I will get a shard refund, right? I do not want to end up with hundreds of useless wildcards while still missing Epics and Champions.
Or is there any better way how to approach this in the long term?
Dumb question: is there any popup ingame that the loot arrived? I have claimed it but I can't see it anywhere. And I can't see the exp. token or wildcards in my collection. Thanks.
Hi, I am trying this for the first time, so don't roast me too hard. To be honest, the hardest part is to find the right art, I suck at it.
Self Harm: I went for the Injured Blademaster because i failed to find proper art. Also, because of a meme. Wording is a bit wonky, I had a "after you opponent plays a minion, it deals its damage to itself" text before, but I have aligned it with Aeon Reaver wording. Not sure which one is better. I was deciding between hunter and rogue secret, but ended up with rogue.
Another Card to Play: Found out that "A Trick Up the Sleeve" name is already taken by YuGiOh, so I went for this one. Art is from battlegrounds hero power:) Card is not just a 2 mana draw a card and change its cost to 0, remember that the card has to be drawn on opponent's turn, so there is some buildaround required - Loot Hoarder that dies on your opponent's turn should trigger it, Coldlight Oracle or Research Project played by your opponent should also trigger it.
Fall of a Big Druid, huh? I made it with Big Druid to Diamond 1 ***, then dropped straight to Diamond 4. Can confirm that it lost its breath quite fast.
I am not sure, 0 mana hero power seems bit scary. Imagine that you generate [Hearthstone Card (Coldara Drake) Not Found] somehow (yes I know it is mage card). Insta win:)
Holy crap the #5 was a pain in the ass. There might be also some technical issue here maybe?
Show Spoiler
If you search for the card through the Cards/Battlegrounds, and you click the right one, you will get to page of the card that does not have the egg. So even if you select right card, you don't:) However, if you look for the original card that comes from the year of the raven, you will ge to card page with the egg.

No Blizzcon? Fine for me. But no Blizzcon Bingo? That is too much..
EDIT: typos
Yaay a minecraft board!
And my Stand Alone deck just bursted into flames...

I will keep an eye on it, but I am not spending a dime. Not again:)
glad to see that Pokrovac is not just a ladder monster but can perform well in tournaments. Well played mate

Stay strong! Eat some Funnel Cakes for imunity.
Prince Keleseth + Spiteful Summoner decks are probably an viable option. I tried spiteful hunter with Carnivorous Cube and Kathrena Winterwisp + big dinos combo and I regret nothing. I am actually tuning the deck for ladder now:)
I have resisted to preorder AoO, I think I will resist this one also:)

The correct question should be:
What Genn Greymane does to Demon Hunter hero power?:)
They also plan to change Open the Waygate and Bloodbloom

I am pretty sure that you will see many articles about vaccine in November also :)
What is this nonsense? Warrior does not exist. It should be Illidan vs Illidan.
Man you should copyright this
VENGANCE!
