Ya know - they make so many mounts in the game hard to get (and for some people impossible to get while current). If not that then they want you to pay real money for one.
Personally I'm glad this is a fairly simple acquisition. Rep-based mounts aside - they barely ever come out with a REALLY cool mount in this game that is simple to get or that doesn't cost RL money or an arm and a leg in-game to purchase.
Blizz actually gets a +1 from me for this...even if I did have to d/l and play Hearthstone to get it.
really awesome that it's not a store mount, I'll happily win 3 games to get this horse =)
should've been a beta testers reward (before they let everyone in, closed beta tester reward)
So how hard is it to win these games for someone who doesn't play or really have an interest in these kind of card games? I just want to collect the mount.
Yea, currently appearing blue for Horde and Alliance. I kiiiiind of hope it's not intentional? But it looks nice either way. I would have used the red on my lock. Blue? Hmmm.
I really like the artwork on this but yes, those front hooves that way over-extend & look broken or like a loose hinge. Makes me cringe. No more rhymes now, I mean it. Anybody want a peanut...

‘golden repair’, is the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold or silver lacquer. The aesthetic philosophy focuses on imperfections rather than attempting to disguise them, with the intention that the piece becomes both more valuable and more beautiful because of its history and for having been broken.
and it was the first comment about this announcement...how sad. Would have been better to see the ever annoying "FIRST" post rather than the same old pointless comment from someone that is clearly too blind to see the OBVIOUS reason for making this mount obtainable how they did.

Started messing with it last night and i find myself pretty interested in it so far. Now i can't wait till they put it on iPad.
Yay lets reward the 3% of RNG that got into "closed BETA". What a stupid comment to make. Thats like saying lets give everyone £1M for everyone born in 1950...."oh sorry you was'nt born then? Sucks to be you.."
What if I got a Closed BETA invite and didnt touch the game?....im still "worthy" of the mount? No.
