    I still don't get the legendary cards, what do you mean you choose 3 random rare cards and made them with scratch offs?

    Didn't we know the set size already?  At least, I put it in the FAQ as 361.

    Nice! We've all been wondering this for awhile. :)

    In a booster pack, you’ll get ten commons, three uncommons, one rare or epic, and one regular-size hero (which is considered an uncommon). Each epic card is roughly twice as hard to get as any specific rare card.

    Mentions a few other things, like booster pack composition and info on the point system cards. ;)

    Launching in the World of Warcraft TCG is the UDE Points program. In each booster pack, you can find a UDE Points redemption card. Go online to the UDE website listed on the card, and you’ll be able to register the points from that pack. You’ll be able to redeem these points for various goodies, including three additional online Warcraft upgrades that are different from the ones on the loot cards.

     

    Each UDE Points card is worth the same amount of points, and you can build up your total over time. You can also earn points through participation in organized play. This gives you a guaranteed way to get your hands on some of those online goodies if you aren’t fortunate enough to find a loot card in your packs.

    Re: World of Warcraft TCG Set Size

    Someone explain this to me:

    Loot cards are legendary. We picked three rare cards and made a second version with a scratch-off code. When you redeem the code you’ll get an exclusive cosmetic upgrade for your online World of Warcraft character! There are three different codes. In terms of insert rates, one is about equivalent to a rare card, one is roughly epic, and the third is about twice as rare as any given epic card.


    What do they mean they picked 3 rare cards and made a second version? Does it mean there is going to be a rare card, and then that SAME rare card with a scratch off code ON the card? That doesn't make any sense.

    It's not three random rare cards.  It says they chose three rare cards, made alternate art for them and allowed them to have cool stuff in game.

    Also of note, as far as packing goes:

    Lowest: 1 in ~4 boxes
    Middle: 1 in ~1 case
    Highest: 1 in ~2 cases

    We didn't choose three cards at random. Let me use an example to explain. Let's say there is a rare card that is some type of pet. That card is playable just like any other rare. There is also the chance to get a Legendary version of that same card with a scratch off code on it. You can utilize that code in much the same way that the code worked for teh Blizzcon Murloc Pet to get that item for your character online.

    There are three different Legendary cards in the first set and each appear at different frequency.

    Am I reading this to mean that each pack has 2 actual uncommons and 1 hero to make up the 3 slots.

    Nope, there's 15 cards per booster pack.  Thats 3 uncommons plus a Hero card.

    Re: World of Warcraft TCG Set Size

    Umm... heroes...

    I'm a bit concerned about the line about a hero counting as an uncommon... can you please confirm that heroes are NOT on the same print run as the other uncommons (that you can't calculate the other uncommons based on what hero is the pack). Its probably just me thinking evil things... but people can do far more in drafts with far less information.

    Re: World of Warcraft TCG Set Size

    Wait, so basically, if a card was legendary, it would be the exact same card as the rare version except oranged numbered, has a code, and possibily alternate art?

    I don't play the WoW game but I'm guessing what you get in game is what the card is?

    Yep.  The legendary card is the same as the rare, and the item on the card is the item you get in-game.

    The Hero is seperate from other uncommons.  15 cards per booster pack:

    10 Commons
    3 Uncommons
    1 Rare or Epic
    1 Regular sized Hero card

    15 cards total
