Fireworks Trinket
I have Updated, the Main WoW TCG page, the UDE Page, and the Trinket's page to reflect the changing of the UDE points from 10,000 down to 3,000.

Bounty Card
I've just begun collecting WoW cards (a friend bought me a Feast of Winter Veil set and an Alliance art set), and I have four point cards. One is a 2 of Pirates, one is a 4 of Monkeys, one is Cobra Scales, and one is called "Bounty." As I understand it, earlier sets used point cards with pirates, ninjas, robots, monkeys, and monsters, all with different numerical values, and also one rule card that described how to play a mini-game called "Pirates vs Ninjas." The Cobra Scales are obviously for crafting turn-ins, but I've searched and searched the Internet and cannot find what the "Bounty" card is all about. It looks just like a pirate card (same color), but has a $ instead of a number, a treasure chest with the same skull and crossbones as the pirate hat instead of a pirate, and a B in the lower right instead of a P. Oh, and unlike the Pirate and Monkey cards I have, this one is copyright 2007 instead of 2006. After I entered my four point cards onto the upperdeck website, I found that I had 1300 points, so I suspect that Bounty means the card is worth 1000 points rather than 100, but being new to the game I can't say for certainty. Perhaps on of you more advanced wowwikians could look into it? Maybe the Bounty card comes with the Alliance Art box? Alas, not realizing it would be important information, I did not keep track of which card came from where. Dr. Cheis 04:52, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Gameplay?
I don't play so, I don't know what this would look like, but I noticed there wasn't much gameplay info in this article. If gameplay info were to be added, should it go in a separate article like TCG Gameplay or World of Warcraft TCG gameplay? -- Fandyllic  (talk · contr) 6:13 PM PST 9 Apr 2008

UDE Points
The cost of getting UDE points = madness... I'm not insane, so no way I'd bother trying to do that... Granted I suppose if you got away with selling loot cards you might luck out and make the money to buy more packs :p...Baggins 02:38, 29 December 2006 (EST)


 * I'm close to 5k points now (bought myself a booster box and a lot of decks)... But yeah, it's crazy. Love the ogre though! --Patrigan - Talk - SH (EU) 06:58, 29 December 2006 (EST)


 * How many points are there in starter box, vs. booster packs?Baggins 02:39, 31 December 2006 (EST)


 * Well, each starter deck comes with 2 boosters, that's all UDE cards in it... --Patrigan - Talk - SH (EU) 19:20, 1 January 2007 (EST)

Other Cards?
I think there may be other cards that are missing from this list of cards usable in the WOW computer game. I have seen references to some kind of "Carrot on a stick" card that makes horses run faster, there is also a THE FOOTSTEPS OF ILLIDAN card which does something.

 * The loot cards are listed here: Loot Cards. The carrot on the stick is a quest reward from a ZF quest Carrot on a Stick. Ackis (talk) 23:26, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * My mistake, I thought I saw a a Carrot on a Stick card at some point. The "Footsteps of Illidan" is confusing, all sites call it "Path of Illidan" yet the actual card reads "The Footsteps of Illidan" MarkButler (talk) 15:17, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, the card is "The Footsteps of Illidan" however the in-game item is "The Path of Illidan". Ackis (talk) 17:05, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Instead of having a "Note the name of the card is..." it might be better to change that section around to name the item, and the card. Most of the loot cards are different than the in-game items. Ackis (talk) 17:09, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * That is an excellent idea!, I don't know enough about the cards versus in-game names to do it but I think it would reduce some confusion. In this particular case, since the article is about the cards, shouldn't the entry be changed to be "The foosteps of Illidan" and then a note that the ingame ability it provides is "Path"? MarkButler (talk) 17:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Well if you get it started I can finish it off I suppose. Since it is about the TCG I would agree with your suggestion, but I also like the other way of by item.  I guess whatever the consensus is, if there is one works.

Asked Question
Would there be a way we could import the stat info from http://www.wowtcgvault.com/ ? Quartermain, an Extraordinary Gentleman (talk) 22:31, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Not canon?
Jeremy Feasel just tweeted this: Q: I meant the Trading Card Game from before Hearthstone, my apologies for not clarifying. Is that a Mini-Game in WoW too? A: Ah, gotcha, there was no tie-in story for the TCG, no, and not considered canon. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 23:14, 29 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Characters depicted on the cards are non-canon too?Mordecay (talk) 10:58, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I've generally been operating on the assumption that anything depicted only in the card game (either one) is non-canon. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 21:02, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * As long as they are properly tagged, they can still be referred to in the pertinent pages IMO, like that necrolyte orc from the TCG. Xporc (talk) 22:30, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
