Like a Blue Streak
It’s not quite certain why Sapphire Skyblazers flocked to Azeroth, but what’s known for sure is that they burn brighter (and hotter!) than any avian to ever soar across the skies. Fast as lightning and armored to the beak, this is a perfect mount to accompany you in your daring adventures.
Once you’ve purchased the 6-Month subscription from the Blizzard Shop, the Sapphire Skyblazer mount** will be automatically added to your in-game collection. Welcome this avian addition to your assortment of mounts!
Imp in a Ball

Prepare for Hearthstone Mercenaries - Coming October 12!
So get a WoW mount for playing Hearthstone for free(?), and get Hearthstone packs for subbing to WoW. Seems like a decent promo for WoW players who want a new mount. Not as great for Hearthstone players.
This is just another pathetic strategy to boost MAU count and other number metrics.
Just like any other company that encourages you to cross buy/use their other products or services. Only here with the smooth brains, is it some nefarious thing. You guys need to get laid or something.

How much are packs and the "battleground and tavern perks" normally? 60 packs and the perks for $77 might not be a bad deal. Though certainly has low value if you don't also play WoW. https://us.battle.net/support/en/art...=blizzard-news
Looks like 15 packs are $19.99 and 60 packs are $69.99. The perks look like they are $9.99. Mercenary packs (and the "next expansion cards") don't have a price yet. But it looks like it a little better then normal prices for a HS player.
How about for once they make such unique mount model earnable through normal means IN GAME, an not through the store or some cross-games promotion? Up until now there hasn't been even one impressive mount in SL, all just reskins or something new YET not unique at all.
I just went through all the Mercenaries stuff they posted and... and... it's fucking RAID SHADOW LEGENDS. Only instead of using 3D models traversing little maps and fighting enemies, it's cards attacking other cards on a board. I... don't know what to think about this.
