Original Warcraft: Orcs & Humans game was released on November 23, 1994 – almost 25 years ago! At the time, no one expected that it will turn into one of the biggest gaming franchises in the world. Not only it spawned two RTS sequels, but also the most popular MMORPG in the history (World of Warcraft) as well as the most popular digital card game (Hearthstone).
To celebrate 25th anniversary, anyone who logs in before November 27th will receive two Golden Rare cards for free: Injured Blademaster and Argent Commander.
Why those? Because, according to the official blog post, it’s “inspired by the epic struggle between Horde and Alliance”.
It’s not much, I was hoping for some special event, maybe a Tavern Brawl (although we still can get it next week), but I’m never complaining when they give us something for free!
golden cards? you mean 200 dust for F2P players. It’s nice to have enough free resources to stay competitive (rank 5), especially when I had no idea it was the 25th anniversary of warcraft.
Tbg Injured Blademaster is still useful, it’s commonly played in Priest 🙂 So if you care about Golden cards, it’s a solid one to get. Argent Commander, on the other hand, hasn’t seen any play in a loooong while.
Well i mean players who have been playing Hearthstone for a while already have 2 copies of both cards, so golden copies are just aesthetic and more valuable as dust for F2P players. 🙂
