Some cards printed on BOTH SIDES??!!!

Dear all,

Just received my cards after long wait and all sort of other issues (wrong address etc).....

However I just noticed............some cards (heroes) have artwork printed on BOTH SIDES OF THE CARD!!!

Has anyone seen this???? Is that really the case?

Besides what is the actual number of cards we should be expecting in a complete set? I know the expansion has 150 cards in total, however apparently there are alternative artwork foils etc (with 81 being total number of foils in the box) - which would put a total number of cards to over 200 - so what's the magic number to expect in the box?


Kind regards

That was the intention for the oversized Heroes, to have the CotC art on one side and the DP artwork on the other.

So it's by design.....glad to hear this :))

Oversize Heroes, cool stuff, cheers!
(Hope I can receive my cards soon...)

By the way what do you mean by term "oversized"? If anything the cards themselves are exactly same size as the rest of them.

Then it might be not the way it supposed to be, maybe show us some pictures?

Will do that in 2 hours when I get home from work.

It's just the hero cards right? I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the hero cards found in Dark Prophecies packs would also be double sided, like their oversized counterparts, I may be wrong though. What they mean by oversized are the giant hero cards that were part of a bonus to those who pre-ordered Dark Prophecies.

I have pre-ordered a year ago (complete set) but got no "bonus" just a box with cards inside it nothing else.

I do think that both the regular and oversized heroes were going to be double sided with both artworks, at least for these sets.

both regular and the oversized hero cards are double sided. :)
Which is awesome!

This is correct. Standard DP heroes have the CotC art on the other side.

Sooo CotC heroes serve no purpose now? :P

Sure they do...those are the cards you let your kids play with...

So has anyone in the Americas gotten their cards yet?

Ok Guys here is the status. Only "regular" heroes are double sided (both CotC and DP artwork) the "oversized" artwork ones are actually foils and are single sided.

There are 20 hero cards - double sided and foils which give total of 40 hero cards - foils are single sided.

Apart from that there are 42 other foils - 40 "regular" cards and two legendary foils (Scourge and Ruler)

Total number of foiled cards - 62.

Is that how is supposed to be in a complete set? Can anyone confirm? please?

Hi. I think you misunderstood what we mean by "oversized". Foils are always zoomed in somewhat, and that's not what we mean by oversized. As you say, you have 20 doubled-sided non-foil heroes and 20 single-sided foil (zoomed in) heroes in your complete set.

BUT you should also have a separate pack of double-sided doubled-sized heroes which say "Oversized Heroes" on the pack. There are 21 in there because 1 is Carmila.

i am in the US and havent received my cards yet :(

Nope - don't have anything like that - only the "normal" complete box which have cards in it as I described previously - no separate package with really "oversized" cards.

Any advice please?

Kind regards

No cards are going to be bigger in size, like Gondo said its a zoomed in picture, w the CotC art on the other side. Just like a foil card in the game, the image is bigger, and shiny!

I beileve you are looking at the " oversized hero's". Already!

( but lots of us thought they would be the size of greeting cards or something when they were first announced! )

Incorrect. Gondorian mentioned zoomed art to distinguish it from the oversized cards. Dark Prophecies pre-order bonuses include larger physical hero cards. One set of 21 should come with each ordered item (booster, epic, set or playset).

As a separate matter, the regular-sized hero cards are double-sided, with original art on one side and alternate art on the reverse. This was all discussed in detail during the ordering period.
