I’ve been wondering if there’s any way to get arena-exclusive cards, such as Fleeing Treant, as golden versions. Since these cards only appear in arena mode, is it even possible to have their golden counterparts? Would love to know how golden versions of these arena cards work, if at all.

Arena-only cards are a pretty unique case. Currently, I believe only Wayward Probe and Fleeing Treant fit this category. They’re strong cards made to support specific synergies like starship and imbue. Since they’re exclusive to arena, their golden versions aren’t obtainable in the regular card collection or through crafting.
As far as I know, arena-only cards like Fleeing Treant can’t be obtained in golden form because they don’t exist outside the arena. Since these cards are designed exclusively for that mode, they just don’t have golden variants you can collect or craft.
One idea I’ve seen tossed around is treating these arena-only cards like the coin: if your entire deck is golden, maybe these cards should also appear golden to match. Would be a nice quality-of-life touch since the hero power that generates these cards can sometimes give you non-golden versions, which is a bit disappointing.
Yeah, that would make sense. It’s a little jarring to have everything golden but these cards stay plain.
That’s what I figured. Kinda wish the golden hero power that generates golden cards worked with them though!
