I only played one battle and found the sound so aggravating I haven't played another since ;) But I will eventually.

I do love the commentary and how it teaches you to play. And I liked Jaina. Does everyone get Jaina as their instructor?

What I found less enjoyable was that when it first installed and ran it, it seemed to sit black for many minutes. I figured it had crashed, but it eventually started and immediately went from stark silence to chaotic noise. My first battle was against Hogger (not sure if that varies) whose voice acting sounded like Scooby Doo on ice (not the frozen water kind). It was so aggravating I decided that one game was enough for now. ;)

Got my beta key about a week ago, and have been dabbling... some thoughts...

1) Harder than you would think. It's gonna have legs.

2) Addictive.

3) This may just kill off my alts. (Hmm.. spend time grinding sigils on this alt hunter and lock, or.. play Hearthstone. easy choice).

So far it seems like a cute fun game :D
Pretty straight forward, as far as card games go, though I am assuming that things can get more complicated the more you progress and the more cards you get. Hogger and Millhouse were so easy, now I am on Lorewalker Cho.

Got mine a few days ago and having a blast :D

One thing, though: maybe it's because Warcraft was always in english for me, but... polish language version is simply dreadful. The translated names... NO, just NO!
