You are assuming that this is a good thing… It is not… Unobtainable stuff in MMOs is always a bad thing since it results in in game items with horrendous acquisition methods that often break the terms of service.
Every item in game should have a reasonable acquisition method, and ultra rare unobtainable items that are worth thousands should have never been a thing in the first place.

I am getting it to spite people like you OP. You got ti enjoy it for years, and even Blizz knows at this point people aint shelling out thousands of dollars for a low poly mount.
I cant wait to get my free mount that someone might have paid almost 3 grand for.

I’ve had the mount for years and I think them giving it away is hilarious.
I hope they do more.

I hope so too. My dream is for them to put Tyrael’s Charger on twitch drops. At this point put the TCG mounts on the cash shop for $20 and lets call it a day.
I’m fine with a lot of the taken away stuff returning. AoTC mounts and the like, mage tower appearances, challenge mode mogs etc et.

Spoken as somebody who has one of those mounts for sale on E-bay.
No. Leave it as it is because I was around when those mounts were available in the TCG but you couldn’t buy a single pack for almost 2 years because people went stupid snapping them up for the Spectral Tiger and received multiple drops of the other mounts, only to cash in on E-bay years later.
I’d love to see blizzard do the same thing to ALL the old TCG mounts. Put the wind up the really greedy set of society.

They should have done this a long time ago with all FOMO-stuff. No point in not earning money from players.

I don’t think they will put Tyrael’s Charger on the store or as a drop.
That mount is… different.
Yeah, hence why its a dream lol will never happen most likely but I can hope.

Eh. Keep it a drop. Blizz didn’t make the mount 3000 dollars. Thats the players own mistake in the making.
Their anger is funny

Bring back Tyrael’s Charger for the players that missed it. Some of my friends want it, and it sucks telling them that it was removed.
For the record most people I know including myself don’t have it and their responses were basically “Oh, cool!” So I don’t honestly think this is that big of a deal. The harder part for me is making the 4 hour time thing being a normal person who works weekends sometimes. I’m more annoyed that it’s only for two days and not like a week. I barely have 2 hours a night to play and I’m sure the streams that qualify will be down when I do get home. I’m gonna have to leave my pc on and last I checked Blizzard didn’t pay my electrical bill.
I don’t think they’re going to do that.
Tyrael’s Charger was part of a contract: you sub for a year, you get an exclusive mount (plus other rewards.) It was advertised that way. I seriously doubt they’re going to go back on that promise.
A few years ago the mount could be bought on another country’s Blizzard store and redeemed on your NA account. Blizzard removed all those mounts from people after they fixed that bug. They could have put it on the store then and let those people keep it.
Who cares? If some git needs pixels to feel good about themselves, that’s their problem.
blizzard cherry picking exclusive rewards from old promos to give away for free to any and everyone. ouch. salt on the never healing wounds that blizzard constantly creates on their players.
i am happy that i am getting the feldrake finally because i am a poor person that dont have the capability to earn those rewards any other way.
i just feel bad for people that paid money or grinding all the gold required to buy from ah and bmah.
i also feel bad that the ones who already own it will get 1 less reward than the rest of us. i hate being a nice person cause i always feel bad when my fellow players get left out and betrayed.
ROFL come on.
Your computer is not going to run your bill up if you leave it on all day one time. The only items in your house that drive the price up are the big ones. AC/heat, washer and dryer, dishwasher. I doubt your computer even makes a blip on the radar.

That’s how rarity works, yes.
No, the the mount should stay as is and they should start doing drops more often. They should rotated every TCG mount as a drop quarterly

I’d say for me personally it’s the desire to spite the fomo “epeen” types.
Ya know the ones that only care about this stuff because they think folk think they are cool for having it
