Nice. About to do the same. Bye bye golden knife juggler! Just got my first ever golden legendary (Cairne Bloodhoof) which will allow me to craft any new legendary I want on a 1:1 basis if I don't get what I want in my packs.
Yeah im going to dust a few of them too. Hopefully it's enough to keep me competitive to keep the game fun for me since i didnt get the preorder. Sigh...
Yeah I was sad to see my golden owls and leper gnomes go but the dust was too much to pass up. I can always redust the plain card if they're still in the meta in the next few months... I did keep one BGH for my control warrior but every other nerfed card bit the dust
I'm actually at a point that I'm wondering if it's worth buying classic packs in hopes of getting the nerfed cards to dust...greedy I know but seems like a reasonable idea in theory...lol
But now that they are nerfed I assume anything you pull now, after the fact, will NOT get full dust... no? Regardless, that seems like a really really low odds play.
They are already nerfed but you get full dusting value up to May 10th I think... So that means if you get one of the nerfed cards in your weekly tavern brawl pack this week or next, you can dust it for full value. Even if you get one from your end of month chest rewards.... But yeah, really low odds, I know to actually find one in the packs...
I think you would probably get more bang for your buck buying the new card packs once they are available.
The only thing I dusted was 1 BGH and both Arcane Golems. Everything else I still expect to use in the near future.
The beauty of dusting nerfed cards is that if you decide to use them later on, you can just craft them for the same amount of dust you got from disenchanting them. I guess only potential problem is of you spent all your dust on other cards... lol
Overloaded servers? I fear worse than that. I bet it's a DDOS attack. It happens every time Blizzard has a major launch.
79 packs opened, 5 legendaries and all the Paladin/Mage cards I wanted. Pretty good! Can't wait to build some decks later. I think this is the expansion that will make me try to play Warlock seriously. I really like some of those cards.
Haha. Seriously though. I have two friends that work there. I've texted them both. They've both given me the brush off. Lol. I'm having lunch with one of them tomorrow. But he is not on the Hearthstone team and cannot be bothered. It's totally understandable. I know how hard he works.
Once the kiddies are asleep tonight, I'm opening my 50 prepurchased packs, plus my 3 bonus Blizzard is giving out, plus the 5 I got for winninng 2 standard games.... 58 packs tonight and the feeling of being a kid in a candy store....priceless!
Dont forget that after winning the 2 standard game packs, you get another quest that requires to win 5 more standard games for more packs.
