To announce that you can now gift Hearthstone packs bought from the Blizzard store, everyone gets a free classic pack through the new system.

Next expansion is Kobolds & Catacombs:
I wonder if Kobolds will be a new tribe.

Since Kobolds are spell damage related, imagine "Both players have spell damage -1"
I've already imagined the "Soggy Lamb" card, where both players have Spell Damage -5.
Mages and Paladins hate him. Warlocks are kinda on the fence.

... beep beep... you've got to... you've got to...
EDIT: Oh don't give me that rating, Pat, you know damn good and well.
@PatrThom I already played Raza, and got Coldarra Drake from a Bone Drake.
Oh that's right, I forgot you were playing Priest, not Mage[DOUBLEPOST=1509752262,1509752094][/DOUBLEPOST]
No, really. I don't get it. I'm probably thinking of the wrong song or something. I REALLY doubt you're making a Jekyll and Hyde, Together Again reference.

Two new things being added are the keyword Recruit (which just means "put a minion from your deck onto the battlefield") and Legendary weapons. Any idea what they'll do about Gorehowl only being an Epic?
EDIT: Also new are Spellstones. Spells that can be upgraded while they're in your hand. The example is a 1 mana Druid card, Jasper Spellstone, which starts out at deal 2 damage, but each time you gain 3 armor, it upgrades. You can do this twice. Once to 4 damage, then to 6.
And Unidentified cards, which have a certain base effect, but gain a random extra effect when they come into your hand. Like the 3 mana Priest card Unidentified Exlir, that gives a minion +2/+2 plus something else. If it's identified as an Elixir of Purity, it gives divine shield.

This feels like a lot.

If so, this is the wrong card to introduce:
I imagine some of these new ideas pertain to specific classes and not others.

Every class is getting a legendary weapon. Recruit is already revealed on a Neutral card. I don't see why Spellstones, and Unidentified Cards wouldn't be in all classes as well.
Sooooo turns out I was actually remembering something from 2014.
Mystery solved!
We now return you to your regularly-scheduled content.
PAL? Really, Kripp?

Thanks for the reminder. I keep seeing the ad when I'm not on my main computer, then forgetting once I am.

If none of the new minions in K&C say "For the hoard!" I'm going to be very disappointed.
