Ok Blizz. You have the best game out there hands down. Who can deny 8.5 million subscriptions?!

That being said, a new MMORPG on the market offers in game card games as another alternative for players! The best thing is WoW already has a card game which could be incorporated into our virtual world. Let's make this happen.

We could all come home from a hard day killing alliance (ok easy day but you know what I mean), fighting the forces of Illidian, farming primals, and sit down to a friendly card game of WoW. In the neutral cities why not let the horde/alliance sit in the "Gambling Not Permitted" hall and play a friendly game! And then start a brawl because their deck has 5 of a card that is a 2/2 defender that allows them to draw a card! What could be better?

P.S. No time limit auctions is another feature the game offers...hint...hint...

We certainly like the idea of adding mini-games, like cards, and we've done so already to a pretty small degree with the Darkmoon Faire. More than likely we wouldn't use the official WoW TCG as an in-game card game, that would be kind of weird, but adding more fun mini-games and ways for players to interact is definitely always on our long term 'to do' list.
