I suspect they didn't want to leech off of card game sales. |
So you believe that Blizzard, who is now more financially secure than they've ever been, would do short-shrift to their runaway blockbuster online game that has nearly 7 million active subscribers across several continents for a licensed TCG product that, while it will certainly proved popular, is several orders of magnitude smaller in customer base, product reach and overall sales? Considering Blizzard has already killed two games just to protect their licenses, I think it's much more likely they decided the product wasn't ready...especially with the changes they've decided to make to the Blood Elves. I doubt Upper Deck pressured them into delaying their software for a licensed product, but YMMV.
