Players Go On a Spectral Safari With New Class Starter Decks

The World of Warcraft Trading Card Game has released a new batch of Class Starter Decks for 2011, updated with Cataclysm content. Available at hobby shops and Target stores, the Class Starter Decks let player select their favorite faction and class combo --like goblin rogue or worgen hunter -- and immediately begin playing with that deck right out of the box. The quick start guide communicates the rules to new players and swiftly assists them through their first game. Randomly inserted Loot cards like El Pollo Grande give your World of Warcraft character a little something too with cosmetic upgrades. And every deck comes with a War of the Elements booster pack to buff your new collection with additional cards.

During the weekend of July 23 and 24, players worldwide will travel to local participating hobby stores and compete in the beginner-friendly Spectral Safari event. You don’t need to own any cards to participate; you just need knowledge of how to play. Participants will receive one of the new Class Starter Decks and battle for store supremacy! The first 25 to register at each local event will get a Sandbox Tiger Loot card, and the winner of the event will get an El Pollo Grande Loot card. At the end of the tournament, one lucky participant chosen at random will win a Spectral Tiger Loot card.

Check out the Class Starter Deck at your local hobby shop and see where your nearest Spectral Safari is located. Good luck on the hunt!
