'Hearthstone' is welcoming new players with a 51-card Welcome Bundle
Interested in jumping into Hearthstone but have no idea where to start? There's a bundle for that.
The competitive online card game is offering brand new Welcome Bundle Tuesday aimed at helping new players build a deck. The Welcome Bundle gives players 10 packs of Classic cards and one random class legendary card for a total of 51 Classic cards -- more than enough to make a 30-card deck.
The bundle costs $4.99, which is a pretty good deal considering buying the same number of packs the normal way will cost you about $14. Each pack comes with at least one card of rare quality or better.

Here's the only catch: You can only buy one Welcome Bundle per account.
The bundle isn't limited to just new players; veteran players are free beef up their Classic card collections for a fraction of the normal cost.
In its announcement, Blizzard noted that the bundles will only be available for as long as their fictional creator "can keep the ethereal portal open," suggesting that the Welcome Bundle may only be around for a limited time.
The Welcome Bundle will be available to purchase after Hearthstone's next content update, scheduled to finish around 10 a.m. ET Tuesday.
