Hi,
I didn't have the luxury of watching the entire stream, was anything mentioned about loot cards being added as a possibility? Would love to have a chance (albeit small) to win a spectral tiger or other loot for WoW.

They didn't mention anything about it but I think it will be very likely that loot cards will be available.
I hope so, if not then Blizzard are missing a huge opportunity to get more people in the game.
If they cross implement loot cards then that's going to take away from the appeal of the paper TCG. I mean why on earth would you buy physical cards anymore if you can get the same thing by playing an online game FOR FREE. I don't see this happening.
This is a different game to the physical TCG, they don't have the same cards or rules
I don't think so, if they keep unique loot and amazing mounts on physical tcg they will both flourish. Some food of thought the TCG did switch hands from UDE to Cryptonic and has some age on it, sales maybe running low and it might be time to kill it off for a more profitable digital model. Look at Fantasica or RoB on IOS and Android they have so many people addicted to this that they spend 2-3k trying to get amazing cards and they are top grossing apps.

FOR THE HORDE!!!
Well I think that's kind of the point, why in the hell make a SECOND card game when you already have one? Makes no damn sense... Do what MTG does, have your physical and online versions of the same card game same rules same everything.
Also"playing an online game FOR FREE": You just KNOW its going to be like LoN, you can get a few cards for free but they have no chance of being anything other than crap.
I think a different problem is that the appeal of TCG loot is partly that you can trade it in WoW. If they introduced a way to trade loot from this new Free to Play game then you'd create a cross game worth of certain cards. You'd possibly be able to make gold in WoW by playing this game. I don't think Blizz will open that can of worms. There's just no need for it. HS will have it's own audience and appeal, and doesn't need to have that kind of direct connection to WoW, or the interest of goldsellers and account hackers to it cause they introduced loot cards.
Not gonna lie, I'd still play M:TG paper cards version (I don't play at all, not with online or anything), if I had a) the time and b) friends to play with like we did in High School every lunch time (It was huge in my school, I miss those days =[ and my blue/black deck).
I remember I had a deck built around those robot like guys in blue that would stack +1/+1 on each other when they died, so you could build up super guys, also there was engineer guys that you could play and they could tap for 2 mana, which was ridiculous amounts if you got them in your first draw.

Yikes.
Probably better than you, probably also a casual these days. Go on, keep being elitist.
