Synergy picks in Arena are being removed

Mike Donais said this week that they are removing the synergy picks from Arena soon, after the next patch. Synergy picks were implemented with KotFT so that the options for your first two cards were limited to smaller pools of “synergy cards” that worked well with other cards of the same type. The hopes were that they would provide a solid base to build upon. Going forward, the first two picks will be the same as all the other picks, thus rolling it back. (source)

This is a special event starting September 11th (yesterday).

Choose which side you want to support: Team Light or Team Void

You login to your Twitch account and redeem your Prime Loot for 2 card backs.

Equip the card back for the team you want to support and play the game. Every time you win a ranked game with that card back equipped, you help your team get a chance to open more card packs for the week. The card packs are for the pros and not you.

They start out with a fresh account, 10 Classic packs, and a Welcome Bundle. On Monday they get 10 packs from each of two different expansions for that week. Then on Wednesday, they get a portion of a second pack award based on what their fans do with their card backs.

The pros cannot purchase anything in-game for real money, so they are relying on us to help them out.

Team Void: Dog, Thijs and J4CKIECHAN

Team Light: Kripparrian, Reynad and Alliestrasza

Each week there is a new theme of expansion cards they get and they try to build the best decks they can to compete against each other on Friday.
