Blood of Gladiators TCG Expansion Released

Blood of Gladiators, the eighth expansion set for the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game, has been released with a focus on PvP and the new Arena theme. There's new Arena location cards, such as Gurubashi Arena, and a new card type called the Dual-Faction Ally to keep the intense battles moving.

For players who like to see in-game rewards, there's three new loot cards available. The common "Sandbox Tiger" spawns a stationary Spectral Tiger ride, the uncommon "Center of Attention" card gives you an Epic Purple Shirt that causes you to strike a pose, and the rare "Foam Sword Rack" lets players fight each other with...well...big foam swords.

If you're on the PTR trying out patch 3.1 and want to see the loot items, head over to Landro Longshot and enter 1111 for the Sandbox Tiger, 2222 for the Epic Purple Shirt and 3333 for the Foam Sword Rack. More information on the Blood of Gladiators expansion can be found here.

New WoW TCG Loot Cards Announced

Blood of Gladiators, the newest World of Warcraft Trading Card Game expansion, will be released worlwide on March 24 following a sneak preview scheduled for March 7-8. While the expansion will include such features as the "Arena" location and the Duel Faction Ally card type, the most recent post on the official TCG site focuses solely on loot cards.

The three loot items, which will be live in patch 3.1 and can currently be tried out on the test server, have no effect on gameplay but look like a ton of fun. The super common Sandbox Tiger card contains a consumable item with 50 charges that places a stationary Spectral Tiger on the ground for everyone to ride. The uncommon Center of Attention card bestows upon you an epic purple shirt that causes you to flex when you put it on.
