    • Oversized Hero Cards!



      Thanks to the community response, we've doubled the Level 2 bonus and upped it to an amazing 20 exclusive digital foils! They are:

      From CotC: Kristoffer Wyld, Puwen Bloodhelm, Infernal Gargoyle, Fireball, Lightning Strike, Retreat, Shriek of Vengeance, and Bazaar.
      From DP: Twilight Tribe Herald, Mystic of the Vale, Rider of Ellos, Fleet-footed Messenger, Radiant Wisp, Ironhide Karash, Disciple of Aldmor, Magma Jackal, Morbid Acolyte, Darkwood Wraith, Aldmor Conduit, and Blood Moon.

      These exclusive foils will be delivered when v2.01 of the game client is released shortly.

      And as the next funding goal is about to be met, we're revealing the next major milestone bonus in advance: Oversized heroes! A complete physical set of all 20 heroes with a bigger card size and the alternate art on one side and the original version on the flip side. Watch as your opponent stares in shock at your huge Boris! A definite collector's item!

        That's cool. So these are going to be the same size as the Magic "Commander" series cards?

        after the announcement that preorder reopened it took 16 days to get $4000. at this rate of $250 a day it would take 40 days to reach the next goal.
        37 are left.
        I remember someone saying we wouldn't make $50K. Well, a few people actually.

        Please have some faith in the product, the bonuses and the mighty selling (and buying) power of the one and only Gondorian!

        Every single preorder period so far, the rate at which people buy exponentially increases as the end approaches. I speak for everybody when I say I want to wait and see what bonuses come before I buy another booster box.

        Kyle,

        Can you provide some clarification on these bonuses, in specific to the complete set and playsets? How many sets of oversized cards come with the 1x set and come with the 4x set (since they are a bonus)? Will this be like pre-order #1 where complete sets get 2x of these and complete playsets get 5x?

        Also, will the complete set/playsets include copies of the exclusive digital foils? (since they are part of the release, a complete set wouldn't necessarily be complete without them.)

        I only ask because, yes'es to both of these would definately drive people to buy more of the sets...

        I noticed the oversized hero is only mentioned as a Physical Set, what about Digital Oversized Hero cards? Will we have one?

        The digital heroes are already bigger than the other cards in game, how big do you want them to be? Fill up the entire screen?

        Finally a physical bonus. You can count me in for a complete playset if the ticker hits 99.7k

        Will complete playsets get 4 of each oversized? I have some friends who quit due to the poor handling of the first release, and might be able to tempt them back in with oversized hero cards. We are all big EDH fans and this has the same feeling to it.

        LOL, an oversized deck of 40 cards?
        You do realized its only those heroes being upsized, do you?

        Either I didn't catch the humor in your lines or I read something wrong; 4x of each card oversized?

        I believe he meant 4 of each hero in oversize, since the complete play set comes with 4 of everything. I don't think he realized that there's only one of each hero since you only need one of each for a play set.

        Kinda reminds me of MtG Archenemy, a solitary oversized card on your battlefield as you fight to the death...

        They would fit well in EDH deck boxes, too, I would imagine, unless they are only a little bigger or like 4x, which
        i dont imagine they will be

        Most of us meant 4x of each hero. I.E. 4x Boris, 4x Amber, etc., etc. At least I did when I asked. Its nice to have extras in physical form, so alot of us like to buy the bonuses in bulk too... You can play with 2 sets, and collect 2 sets.

        Never know if one of my kids will want to play the same hero as me. If I only have 1x then I am torn between, do I save it for collectability sake, do I use it and deal with my kids complaining, or do I let them have one (thats most likely going to get destroyed lol.)... 4x is nice =)

        LOL, Where in my post did I say anything even remotely resembling that?
        You do realized I never insinuated anything otherwise, do you?

        You read everything wrong apparently.
