Freebies!
Gotta love free stuff!
Definitely didn't expect a free class legendary or even six Scholomance packs. A welcomed surprise for sure!
Yeah here's hoping everyone here will get a dual-class legendary, after all the odds are higher.
I do love free stuff and I'd hate to be the dirtbag that complains about anything, but I hope that there won't be any piggybacking with the legendary you get for the pre-order stuff. I know that it is unlikely, but I'd still like to have that affirmation.
What do you mean by "piggybacking" in this context?
With the pre-order purchase you are getting a legendary. PIggybacking this would mean that card counted as your "free" legendary. I get that this most likely wouldn't happen, but knowing that someone somewhere that has authority to speak on the matter confirming it would be nice
I suppose the way you should think about this is, do you think that the free packs you will receive will count towards your pre-order packs? If not then there's no reason to worry that the legendary would count towards your pre-order legendary (or vice versa).
Well, pre-order leg is a Golden one, this one is normal, so if it happens it would certainly be a bug. There should be no need to worry :)
They've never ever done that. I guarantee it won't happen - you don't need official confirmation for something like that. It might actually be illegal in some municipalities.
On a semi-related question, when is the last day one can buy the pre-launch bundle (with KelThuzad hero)?
It would have been kind of neat if they gave us a dual-class legendary instead of any class legendary just because it is the new thing. But it is a small detail and free stuff is always appreciated.
Wow, that's nice! Do the dual class card count as class cards in this context?
I have no proof, but I'd say yes: in my opinion, "class" is used only to distinguish these Legendaries from the neutral ones.
WOOO FREEBIES !!!
