Definitely HS on iPhone. Blizzard has been working on an iPhone version for quite awhile and hasn't said a word about it in months. Now that the larger screens have been out for some months I'm betting Blizzard will say iPhone HS is incoming. Just my 2cents.

When people come to you and say everything is relative, they are not trying to liberate you, they are trying to enslave you and they are damned close to succeeding
My bet would be on a new adventure simply because it would continue the adventure-expansion cycle already in place. Apart from that, I'm hoping for some quality of life features in addition to new content.
I'd really like to see:
Spectator mode with right-side-up hands
UI to streamline tournaments
Importing/exporting decks
Greater incorporation of card backs throughout the game (my collection is growing, and I only ever see one at a time!)
I'm definitely looking forward to the announcement. Whatever they add, I think it'll be great.
How cool would it be if you could use several or all of your card backs at once? Unlike any physical card game you could actually do this. I'm not sure if that's what you meant but I like the idea. :)

Right side up hands would be an absolute disaster. So much abuse would follow.
Maybe we're thinking of different things. Lots of tournaments already edit the view from the opposing player into the stream so that the hand of the opponent is oriented correctly instead of upside-down as it currently is in spectator mode. I think it'd be nice to have this built-in.

But then your friend could just spectate games you play and tell you what the other guy has... .... ? Unless I am not getting this idea.

Yep. you've pretty much nailed it on the head. That would be an obvious exploit. That feature would be a bad idea.

You can only see the hands of both players if you are friends with both. Thesolis isn't suggesting you can always see both players' hands when you spectate, just that when you can see both, they're oriented properly.

Yep, this is what I meant! Sorry for the confusion.
Nothing too dramatic. Obviously an adventure, probably released in stages, with a promotion bonus for the first month or so, maybe not as generous as the full wing of naxx.

Oh I see lol. I'd like to be able to spectate friend's arena drafts and view what a player is thinking of mulliganing before it's actually submitted. Being able to group spec with group chat would be pretty fun also.
Most likely a new Adventure or just announcing for a new device. It won;t be an expansion GvG just came out they're not dropping a new expansion right after GvG. Any ways it'll probably be a "Summer of 2015" release talk.

I'm thinking it's a new adventure. It's obliviously too soon for another full blown expansion and to be honest announcing release on another mobile platform doesn't seem so newsworthy that it requires an announcement (as least I hope it isn't all they are going to announce). Really they could just say that from their website. New play mode is possible, but again I don't think they would make a big announcement about that because it's not really a money maker. I think it's gotta be a new adventure, with pricing similar to Naxx. I just wonder if they will release it in weekly quarters again like they did last time.
I am 100% sure it is going to be a new adventure including a new shiny gameboard. It was already mentioned that we are going to hear news about "new cards".
Other things i am expecting/hoping for:
UI changes for the card back viewer
Further improvement of the Spectator Mode
Announcment of the HearthStone mobile version
New purchasable cosmetics for example alternative hero potraits.
A new achievement system with unlockable cosmetics.
I hope for a new hero. Pretty unrealistic, but the sooner, the better. It'd be strange, if they'd left out deathknights and monks. For the rest: more shaman cards (not murloc related) more pirates (not rogue related) more neutral windfury minions more neutral token minions (i.e. whenever this minion takes damage, summon a X/X token) more aggro cards for priest like shadowbomber
.... that's what I wish for the most.
@Alperon: With new hero portraits, do you have to achieve 500 wins with that class *again* for the other golden hero portrait?
No. Your class turns to be golden. It is not directly related to your hero. Even if you would use let's say Varian Wyrm as a cosmetic new hero portrait for the warrior that would not change the fact that your warrior remains golden. so you purchase the regular version An obtain the golden the moment you hit 500 wins as a warrior or if you already at 500 wins.

Your post was an obvious one. It's a give in. That's why he was wondering why you're even bothering to say it.

I'd wager it's an expansion announcement. Stoked.
Definitely another adventure. I would bet my freshly crafted Dr. Boom on it.
