Update 11:50 AM EDT: Happy Canada Day! It appears Blizzard changed the card back for July 2016. The card back that was datamined back during the Old Gods patch was Halfhill but they have announced a completely different one!

Seems like a water based adventure is in sight. Maybe more pirates and sea creatures?
fitting summer card back
Panda adventure would make sence, sha heavy for season of the kraken. Personally though I would like timeless isle. Lots of pirate options there for my theme decks
Possible adventure pre-order card back? Most likely the card back reward for August now. New adventure in August looks promising.
Yeah, something is definitely going on with the Halfhill cardback change...
Bummer, I really like the Halfhill back, hopefully its not too long of a delay before we see it. Tinyfin isn't bad, but seems a notch below most of the ones we've seen recently.
So the card back was delayed because... incoming Panda adventure in August, so get this cool explorer type deck in first? Perhaps?
*theory craft at the highest level*
Alternative theory... Ben Brode opens recent staff meeting with the statement "what this game needs is more tinyfin".
I like the Tanned Tinyfins card back but i was really excited for Halfhill. I wonder why they didn't tell us that they were going to change card backs this month.
Could that halfhill cardback be used for the next adventure ?? or was it simply a misscommunication from blizzard's team ?? only time will tell.
Tanned Tinyfins? BibleThump
Pandaria-adventure confirmed?
Now we seeing good card backs, loving it blizzard seriously!!
The Tanned Tinyfins cardback is simply wonderful! :)
Maybe the Halfhill card back is the cardback for August / upcoming adventure set indication?
Haha, wow, Kripp's warrior deck made it! I use this deck to finish the 5 warrior win quest for my wife since she doesn't play warrior. Surprisingly effective as I helped her climb ranks and finish the quest in 5 games.
Isn't the July cardback Tanned Tinyfins?

Funny story. Datamining back during the Old Gods patch told us the July card back was Halfhill. It seems Blizzard has changed their minds though. No idea where we're getting Halfhill from now.
Also, not only datamining, was Blizzard itself who says Halfhil was the July cardback, here is the original link: http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/blog/20097359/hearthstone-patch-notes-50012574-whispers-of-the-old-gods-4-24-2016
Not just that, but if you open the game client right now, the Halfhill cardback is in the game and says it'll be for July, the Tinyfin one hasn't been patched in yet
