So Blizzard has done with class cards. They are left with few choices.
A. Continuing with unveiling neutral cards, probably more than 1 card per week because if they did, it would take 4-month to complete that.
B. Announcing the price and release date. I find that highly likely 'cause I don't suppose Blizzard will spoil all the fun before releasing Naxxramas, some cards are to be discovered.
C. Some kind of trivial information like card back or play table, etc. Keep hyping the crowd for more hunger sale, if so that would probably mean Naxxramas in August.
D. Open the first wing at this week's reset, possible.
E. Say nothing at all, but some tournament staff. However, they may lose the hype train and end up with a cold market.
Then there's this Reddit comment by the same Blizzard employee. It may feel a bit far fetched first, however, they changed the Alextrasza mechanic from healing to "setting to 15 hp" months ago, a Blizzard employee that also mains priest should know that, which gives the impression the comment has an off purpose, maybe again hinting at July 15th
That possibly means something, however I fear that introducing Naxxramas in the middle of one season could lead to imbalanced problems to ranked play.
I see that point, since, however, the wings will be released one a week over 4 weeks it's going to be almost impossible for Blizzard to get the new cards out without shaking up the meta mid-season. Unless of course they release the wings monthly, which they won't.
It might inflict less damage if Naxxramas was introduced at the beginning of a season, thus, all players would have the same progress when they began to climb ladder.

Will it though? even if it is released at the beginning of a season... all players wont progress through naxx at the same pace. Hence they wont have access to the new cards at the same pace. I think some turmoil and imbalance issues are bound to happen untill all 4 wings have released and some time has passed by after that. so i just want the release asap :D
'm bored of hearing about this already. It'll be here, when it's here.
They're loving all the hype and panic from you lot about it. It's a pile more cash for them, which y'all will spend ... no matter who says they won't... You got to feel for those who thought it was actually F2P

The first wing is free so I suppose player-base will all access to that. However, my point is they better not to introduce Naxxramas in the middle of a season.
It's just annoying that Blizzard is so silent on the whole thing. Konami doesn't start revealing cards from the next set of Yugioh and then never give a date for when the new set will come out. I know I'm not the only one who's reached that level of hype where it's plateaued into just plan annoyance at the lack of info.

You thought there would be something inspirational here didn't you?

I'm with you. Honestly, if it hadn't been for the leak earlier this week, I'd be stone cold uninterested. I think that the hype train is pretty ready to crash if it doesn't get some new guidance.
I'm annoyed as well. I would much rather know the price and release date than what cards I can earn. The class card reveals have actually killed most of my anticipation for the class challeneges.
Personally I'm loving all the hype. This is the first time I've been so excited at the thought of learning the release date, let alone being excited about the actual release.
I've created a table which shows the release dates of all the Naxxcards they have tweeted us (not the initial 5 from PAX).Times and Dates are in Blizzard time (PDT). All releases so far have either been Wednesday or early Thursday. If we don't see anything by the end of today, I wouldn't be surprised if we're now done seeing new cards, even forgetting about the leaks. They do need to leave something out there for us to discover in-game, or you know, datamine.
Next things to look forward to from Blizzard are a Card Back preview for Season 4 due before end of day Monday (hopefully Naxx themed), Naxx pricing information (it's in their best interest), and a release date (day of or day before of patch). Anything else is just icing on the cake.

@billie
ah i understand.... ya mid season release is surely worse,,, july 1 just feels right.. lets wait and see i guess
Gummy Bear weighs 5 pounds, and is 10 inches tall. 5 + 10 = 15!
5, 10, 15 is 5 total digits. 15 / 5 = 3...
Yong Woo just confirmed Half Life 3.
joke stealer :(
Signature
You snooze, you lose!
Yong sure likes tweeting about the number 15.
Add up the mana. 3 + 2 + 1 + 3 + 6 [total] = 15
Rank + Minion Attacks
5 + 4 + 3 + 3 = 15.
Nooooo, why you do this to me?

Thanks for the info Fluxflashor!

10 + 21 + 21 + 8 + 23 + 10 + 10 + 23 + 10 = 136
136 / 9 (number of reveals) = 15.11111111111111 (14 1s)
14 days after the start of the next season is the 15th.
I couldn't imagine if they remained silent. The bottom line to me is card back or price. Anyway, not very smart to lose the hype by icing information.
