Blingtron 7000 is a peculiar invention built by engineers to distribute free gifts such as gadgets, potions, and the occasional Encrypted Message, which can be decrypted into mysterious messages.

While these messages may seem like quirky flavor text at first, some players believe they hint at something much deeper, possibly a secret still waiting to be uncovered.

Blingtron 7000 offers a daily account-wide quest that rewards Blingtron 7000 Gift Package, which has a chance to contain an Encrypted Message.

Once the binary code is converted into letters, the following message presents itself:

Hearthstone at the Lion's Pride Inn. Too many cards in the hand. 8/8 for 12. Construct additional pylons.

A Message Unlike the Rest

This final message stands out from the rest. Unlike the others, which present clear and non-specific warnings, this one must first be decoded to even be read. It's also the only message labeled with the code 002, rather than 001, setting it apart even further.

The message seems to reference other Blizzard titles such as Hearthstone (in the first sentence) and StarCraft (in the last sentence). Some players believe that these references, along with the numbers mentioned, might point to hidden coordinates or a deeper riddle. The numbers appear in three separate phrases:

  • "Too many cards in the hand" - In Hearthstone, players can hold a maximum of 10 cards. This implies that more than 10 cards are involved.
  • "8/8 for 12" - A possible reference to Hearthstone cards with 8 Attack, 8 Health, and a cost of 12 Mana.
  • "Construct additional pylons" - In StarCraft, Protoss players must build pylons to increase unit capacity and enable construction of buildings.

The Hearthstone Connection

Whether these clues lead anywhere concrete is still unknown, but it's worth noting that a table in the Lion's Pride Inn at Goldshire features a Hearthstone game board with three hidden cards.

Coincidentally, in Hearthstone there are exactly three giants with 8/8 stats that cost 12 Mana to summon:

Secret or Easter Egg?

The final sentence seems to imply that more energy is needed, possibly to summon all of the giants. However, there is still no concrete evidence to confirm this theory, nor is it clear how these clues could lead to a potential riddle, secret, or even coordinates that might be usable in-game. The mystery remains, leaving players to speculate if there's an undiscovered secret lurking beneath these messages.
