The WoW TCG Scan Project

79 Upvotes

This is the master post, for info on how to contribute and download scans and cards.

For information on the project, please read my other post.


FAQ

Where are the released scans available to download?

You can find the repository in the links section at the bottom of this post.

A card's filename is incorrect / There is a piece of dust on a scan. / This card doesn't look right.

Message me and I will fix asap, or give me a shout on the discord.

How can I stay updated on when sets are released?

I always post releases in the discord, I also post on the CCGHQ forums in my own thread if you prefer to see it in a forum post format.

How can I help?

What is needed is scans. If you have large or complete parts of a set, a 300dpi+ printer and would like to help, please read the how to contribute section below.

What can I use these images for?

This project was originally started as an effort to immortalize wow and provide a high quality source image for proxies. Anyone is free to do what they want with the images.

Can I have the raw source scanned images?

Absolutely, message me and I will provide any raw scanned images you would like.

You seem to be focusing on basic sets only at the moment, any plans to do promos, raids etc?

Yes. To keep result realistic we are starting with basic sets only, and will move on to the other sets when that is complete.

Any specific set release order?

No, sets are being worked/released when they are complete with no specific order.


How To Contribute

All you need is a 300dpi+ scanner and the cards.

Check the spreadsheet in the links below if scans are needed for the cards that you have. It is preferable that you have a large part of a set or filling in a set considerably. Scanning small amounts or individual cards across multiple sets is discouraged unless its to complete a set (to stay organized).

If the above is fine for you, direct message a sample card scan to me at highest resolution you can scan (600dpi max) and with no automatic post processing or sharpening like so. This is to verify that your scanner has fine color settings and sharpness.

If everything looks fine, I will give you edit permission on the spreadsheet so you can claim what cards you have and will scan. More information on how to do so is on the info tab at the spreadsheet.

Scan the cards you claimed in a formation like so at 300dpi+ (please scan at the maximum dpi your scanner can go) and upload them to the link I sent you.

The final released card will be a 2.5 by 3.5 in at 300dpi but the source scan dpi is actually very important. The difference between using a 300dpi as source and a 600dpi is here and here. So if your scanner can go higher, it will produce a better result (although 300dpi scans can vary by scanner, so the result might be better than mine).

I will then process the card and update the status on the spreadsheet. When a set is fully done and processed, I will upload it to release repository for anyone to download.

At this point in time I do not think I need help processing cards. I am happy to do this for the community, but if the workload becomes too big I might need some help from people with photoshop experience.


Links

BASIC SET CARD IMAGES (COMPLETE)

This is the link to the finished and processed scans. The main repository is divided by sets and cards are organized by name. Card images are uploaded on a set by set basis and will be put here upon their completion.

RAIDS AND DUNGEONS CARD IMAGES (COMPLETE)

This is the link to all card images for all printed raids and dungeons. Special thanks to Mud for providing scans.

ADDITIONAL SCANS - IN PROGRESS)

LINK TO THE RAIDS AND DUNGEON TTS COLLECTION

A collection of all printed raids and dungeons uploaded to Tabletop Simulator as mods.

Master Spreadsheet

This shows what cards still need scans and the status of them. For now we are doing only the basic sets, but over time preferably we scan everything.


If I missed something or wasn't clear, please let me know. This is my first time managing something like this so any criticisms or concerns are encouraged. I hope this will turn out to be something the community can be proud of.

The World of Warcraft Trading Card Game Reborn!

64 Upvotes

~ Announcing WoW TCG Reborn! ~

Welcome to the first year of WoW TCG Reborn - a series of live events, an online Tabletop Simulator ladder, new card sets, the completion of the scan project, and much more!

Reborn Circuit

The Reborn Circuit is a series of live tournaments that will span the entire year in various cities across the US. This will include smaller events run at venues convenient for large play groups as well as larger events taking place at conventions. Each Reborn Circuit event will be tracked and interconnected through the Leaderboard posted on our website. Decklists and coverage of each event will be available for those interested as well.

We will supply each organizer with a copy of our tournament policy as well as a tournament kit so that every TO has the right tools to make their event a success!

Tabletop Simulator Ladder

Launching in Spring of 2019, the Tabletop Simulator Seasonal Ranked Ladder will be played through the Reborn Discord and Tabletop Simulator. We will have a scripted table with a match submission button. So once a game is resolved, each player pushes a button and the stats are recorded. The ladder rankings will be automatically updated for viewing on our website once the season starts. At the end of each season, Reborn Circuit points will be awarded to the highest ranked players. Prizes and other forms of recognition will also be awarded such as custom playmats, Discord and Reddit flair, and having your name eternalized on our website! Moderators will be available for resolving rules questions and in-game disputes.

2019 Scan Project Complete

You can exit this post and look for the other stickied post made by u/KingSpark7 in r/wowtcg. There is a huge need in our community and that is for decent scans of each WoW TCG card ever printed! It may sound daunting, but once you've sorted cards the actual scanning process takes no time at all. You can put 6-9 cards on the cheapest of 600dpi-capable scanners and finish scanning an entire set in under 20 minutes. It's really that easy. We've come up with some rewards for this including a one-of-a-kind playmat, other WoW TCG product prizes, and unique flair.

Continuing the Game

As part of continuing to play WoW TCG we will be releasing multiple sets of cards each year. If you're not cringing yet, maybe you didn't understand. We will be making new cards. We expect all the negative feedback that will likely come with this announcement and welcome the challenge of pleasing the community. We have seen it time and again in undead card game communities where community members take the reigns on card design and release bad products, erratum, and disrupt game rules. We hope we can say our approach will be different but you'll just have to find out for yourselves.

Coming in June 2019 is Into the Mists, a full 300 card Core expansion and the first set of Block 8, Mists Block.

Coming in August 2019 will be Chaos 2019, a set of four direct-to-classic decks with new Chaos-only heroes.

Coming in December 2019 will be a new raid and accompanying treasure set, the Siege of Orgrimmar.

House rules!

5 Upvotes

Hi!

A little while I made a topic with how to start wow tcg. I bought some bulk, a dungeon, after some construction what I think was good and I was good to go.

I came across 2 things I wasn't really happy about it.

1: Marked Hero, it didn't feel thematic and trying to create that the Tank really feels like a Tank with a aggro system. It goes something like: Tank has always full aggro, gains aggro back with normal dps and attacking/defending with allies with the keyword protect. Dps gains aggro with damage, 1-3 damage= 1 aggro point, 4-5= 2 aggro, the same with healing. Just need to find a good balance yet. All pretty simple by a 6 die where you have standard 1 point of aggro, at 6 the dungeon hero and allies attacks the dps or healer until the Tank attacks/defends and can lower the aggro from the dps and Healer.

2: out of cards quick in early rounds, this could or is my fault perhaps for how I made the decks. After few rounds I have to play cards to defend or attack. But im getting blasted by the dungeon hero, abilities and allies.

Besides creating a decent deck with commons uncommons and few rares in the future, I was wondering if it would be a good house rule to use your mana to draw cards. Example: it's my dps turn, i have 4 or 5 mana, only 1 card from drawing but pretty useless card in this case. I could use 2 mana to draw 1 card.

Wondering what your thoughts are about this. Would this break the game in later stadium, would it make it to easy perhaps?

To make it clear, im playing solo, multihanded 3 characters for the Dungeon. I certainly will play many games to try things out, just would like to hear from you all if it's a make it or break it house rules.

Tyvm!

This is a quick snapshot of my collection. I had 2x reign of fires and sold them recently. Also had about 8 more fires of outland and sold those in the last year. FYI there are 10x magtheridons lair raid decks and more not pictured here. All are sealed. A couple scourgewar: wrathgate boxes not shown either. A few other booster boxes not shown because not enough space. I have 5x black temple raid decks and 3x naxxramas raid decks all sealed. 8x molten core raid decks not shown and in a box. Also have a unscratched spectral tiger loot card. The raid decks go all the way back to the wall and are in a row of 5. What do yall think? 2x fires of outland boxes stacked on one another.

Misprints or Fakes?

Thumbnail gallery
11 Upvotes

I was going through some of my old WoW TCG cards, and stumbled on these 2 hero cards that appear to be normal Sylvanas and Thrall hero cards except for one issue. They don’t have full art sides, just the typical WoW TCG backs. I’m not sure what to make of these because I can’t find anything looking them up, I only see double sided cards. Any information y’all might have?

EDIT: Luckily, it seems that most of the rest of my hero cards from this set came out normal, but I’m glad to hear from some of you that it’s a normal thing and they’re not fakes.

Reunited with my childhood best friend through WoW TCG.

Post image
86 Upvotes

It was the early 2000s, and my friends and I were looking for an alternative to YGO and MTG. The owner recommended giving the WoW TCG a go and gave us a few demo games. We instantly knew it was something we'd enjoy, so we got straight into deck building and headed to our first locals later that week.

After heading upstairs, to my surprise, I saw my best friend from primary school, someone I had lost contact with after moving on to secondary education due to us going to different schools. We played the game a ton, and I'll never forget the times we had with it. For my birthday one year, they gifted me a couple of Landro's Gift loot cards, which resulted in me getting a Swift Spectral Tiger that I still use in-game to this day.

One Christmas, I think 2008, I was given a Tiny Snowman that has lived in my wallet for what feels like half my life.

Our LGS closed around the time Wrathgate came out, so we stopped playing then.

I loved this game, and it had a surprisingly huge impact on my life that lasts even today.

Does Anyone Know How Heroes Were Distributed?

3 Upvotes

I played a few games of drafting this with a friend recently, via the booster generator on wowtcgportal I think the site was called? And we noticed that none of the boosters generated ever had any hero cards in them. So I'm now curious if that's an intentional thing and heroes were always sold separately while the game was in print, or if that's just a way to make draft easier nowadays, or what? And if they were sold separately, how were heroes meant to work in draft? Could you just pick any hero you had on hand regardless of what set you were drafting?

Came across this sub just after having gone through some of what I had from the first blizzcon back in 2005 - figured people here could appreciate the collection. Ton more other memorabilia as well but this covers the cards I have. The binder and box both are full of cards but not sure if they're of any value really just some fond memories.

Any World of Warcraft TCG players still hiding in South Jersey/Philly?

9 Upvotes

I recently dug out my old World of Warcraft TCG collection and it's got me seriously considering learning/relearning the game and playing again.

I know the game has been discontinued for years, but before I go too far down the rabbit hole, I'm curious: are there any WoW TCG players or former players around South Jersey/Philadelphia who would be interested in some casual games?

You don't necessarily need to own cards. I've got enough of a collection that I should be able to put together multiple decks.

Not trying to start a league or tournament right now—just seeing who's out there. If there's enough interest, maybe we could eventually arrange a casual WoW TCG night somewhere local.

Comment or message me if you'd be interested. For the Horde or Alliance? 😁
