Wow that's a lot of comments. I think they had 1600 to giveaway. Lets pray to the RNG gods.
I have faith! 1/5 chance!
So maybe a 1:4 chance then (after removing duplicates)? All hail RNGesus!
Those chances are actually not terrible. I hope you guys will get keys.
I wish they were giving away all the keys at once.
Doesn't make much sense that they aren't. With registration closed and comments turned off -- it would make sense just to give the keys out now.
But, hey! It's a giveaway and they can do as they wish! I suppose it will continue to bring more traffic to their site and followers to their social media over the next weeks.

That's pretty good chance. Holding my fingers crossed that i can get in 
I'm in.
It's definitely the usual Blizzard polish approach applied to M:tG, except they're doing things that wouldn't really work in physical form like randomized multi-target attacks.
I think it'll be successful. Seems like it would be really tablet-friendly too.

Thats pretty good odds. Are You sure that number is correct?
It's coming to the iPad, they are already doing internal testing on it.
Just beat all the expert AI and I know have 200 gold saved up. Not gonna spend any more on packs now it's all about arena.
I also need to figure out how to stream myself. I tried, but I had trouble getting it to work on my Mac. For some reason the resolution was all wrong...
1. They have Blizzcon coming up and want to do something for their upcoming game.
2. It's an Invitational just with famous streamers and not something that's open to everyone anyway.
3. PR
So its a pay per view twitch stream of a beta, that sounds horrible
Except it's not. The press release doesn't mention that you need the virtual ticket and it will just be streamed on twitch normally.
Oh, ok, that explains a lot. The stuff that's missing from the UI makes sense if they're intentionally keeping it touch-friendly.
Guess I misunderstood what this means:
"Don't want miss a second of all the exciting BlizzCon action? Watch the full event, which includes exciting Blizzard developer panels and other featurettes, by purchasing a Virtual Ticket today."
Yeah, it's an obvious and very necessary direction for Blizz for this game. Expanding it to ipad would allow them to rake in so much more money. I expect their next MMO to also tie into mobile somehow.
You are reading the wrong thing: http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/blog/11218298/hearthstone-innkeepers-invitational-10-10-2013
It says "Don't want miss a second of all the exciting BlizzCon action? Watch the full event, which includes exciting Blizzard developer panels and other featurettes, by purchasing a Virtual Ticket today." at the bottom of the article.
You're not very perceptive for a community manager
I am not a community manager, you are just wrong.
That's what you are paying for besides other goodies like virtual pets or whatever... esports from Blizzcon was always free as far as I can remember....
I don't see how having an opinion based on Blizzard's published article makes me wrong.
I would imagine CM_Zeriyah is probably going to have a long chat with you at the office this morning.

Just want to say, I have a virtual ticket and cannot wait. For all of it! That's all.

All Blizzard employees in here can feel free to give keys out to fellow NeoGAF members... !
If anyone got two keys then they're a cheating bastard that deserves to feel bad for violating the spirit of the giveaway.
You should probably read the paragraph before what you keep quoting. It says right there that the semifinals and finals will just be at the WoW Twitch channel. I don#t know why you are such a dick.
Anyway, Arena can really suck sometimes. Have a Warrior right now with 1 weapon in the deck which is a Fiery War Axe. It's not like I didn't want to pick more I jsut didn#t get the option.

Looks like these guys are doing a giveaway as well. You have to have a Facebook account to enter though.
Looks like Blizzard is allowing giveaways again. Maybe now there will be a lot more coming?
Why do you keep calling him a CM when he clearly is not?
And it isn't an opinion, it is a fact. You are factually incorrect. Just because you are wrong, does not mean you have to be an asshole.
not the kind of giveaway I might care about.
basically they want me to spam on facebook to get a chance to actually get a key, and the more you spam more chances you've got to actually get the key.
I don't have the time for this kind of s**t
and I don't have a facebook account either
How'd you get a key Xater?
Sethos gave me his because he has no interest in the game. You can see that a few pages back I think.
Interesting, but you really don't need all the cards to build a good deck. Worth to know for completionists though I guess.

Me and you both, I just threw it up for those that do.
Good info. Is it me or does that seem insanely expensive for a full playset? As in more expensive than a physical game like MTG...
I try to avoid this thread, get angry every time I'm in here. I'll leave now

Get good and you can win most of the cards in arena. I haven't bought any packs and have a full warrior set besides the legendary. Most of the other sets are missing like 2-3 cards.
I even have a couple of gold legendaries.
The 5-card packs do indeed make collecting a full set a somewhat depressing proposition. It makes the collector in me sad.
But it makes sense and is very fair from a PLAYER perspective. Dust ensures if you ever need a couple cards to complete a deck, you should be able to get them pretty easily.
It's just completionists that get pretty hosed.
