Hearthstone Gameplay at PAX East

The first thing we did after getting into the convention center was head strait for the Naga Theater, where the announcement would be hosted. Filled with countless Blizzard Fanboys and Girls, everyone was extremely hyped. When they finally said that it would be a tcg, you could have heard a pin drop in the room. Everyone's heart sank and a few people went "woo!" sarcastically.
Then they showed us the videos and shoutcasted a game. Suddenly everyone was hyped only to learn it was playable on the floor. My friends and I immediately rushed to the booth, along with everyone else and their mother from the theater and played it. Now, I don't play tcg's and half of my friends never played WoW, but we all absolutely fell in love with it.
For the next three days, the Blizzard booth was like an amusement park ride to use. We jumped on line every time it was a bearable length. I probably played 15 games by Sunday night. It is extremely in depth even with the very low amount of cards they had in play. Even cooler, one of the guys there who works on balance (forgot his name), would run over if you needed help. Even if you were getting smoked and were already down by 10 life he could show you a way to turn the game in your favor. The order in which you play your cards and attack in one turn can be the difference between a great turn or a fail one. Every hero was fun to play.
Its free to play and I would pay $60 just to own the game. I am going through Hearthstone withdrawal and HotS isn't helping it.
