Owned!
Stocking stuffers comprised much of the gift giving this year at our household. We elected to focus on the children and keep the adult gift exchange to a bare minimum. One of the things my wife did was dump a few booster packs of WoW TCG Drums of War in my stocking. Although I’d never purchased any of these before, I did know about the tabards and some of the other cool things you can randomly pull from these packs.
Being a former avid collector of Football and Basketball cards, I know a rare card when I see one. My all-time pull was an autographed Scottie Pippen card that was numbered out of 100. This was back in the day before ebay was king, and I sold it via an internet newsgroup for seven hundred bucks. While not as awesome as that, I came across a card that looked like it must be pretty special. I was right, because later on that day I Googled it to find that it sells for anywhere from fifty to seventy dollars on ebay
.
The card turned out to be the Owned! loot card from the Drums of War series. It has a code that grants your character a PvP taunt ability. I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but apparently you can plant a flag next to your fallen victim after you’ve defeated them in a duel. Too bad Hunters just got whacked with the nerf bat. 🙁 Maybe someone will be gracious enough to let me beat them so I can see the animation in action. 😉
