The Hearthstone Announcement on Monday
Ben Brode posted some Tweets and photos over on his Twitter account giving us a little spoiler into the next expansion. Yeah, totally not Un'goro Crater related guys. For those that haven't take the adventure in World of Warcraft, the third photo is Ben on top of a mountain that sits between Un'goro Crater and Tanaris.
Fun Fact: Tanaris is the location of Gadgetzan. I wonder if this means we're going to get an Uldum or Silithus expansion after Un'goro. Let's get some more archaeology action going on or hey, bugs are cool too.
Probably on the official site at some form but there hasn't been any confirmation on that, as far as I know. And most likely in 1,5 hours from now. But we'll certainly have a news post as soon as this announcement/reveal/whatever-it-turns-out-to-be happens so keeping an eye on Hearthpwn front page should be a good alternative.
Card leak from Un'goro

5 mana 8/8, new meme!
(It's NOT collectable. I guess it's something like Golden Monkey)
This quest must be so hard to achieve to have this OP card as a reward 0.o
And the
leakedfake cards thing has begun... as always. Nothing new...I have learned by now not to put my faith in a Reddit post... moving on...
Thats an acual card in the game
...and it turned out to be real, lulz

Please not May.
I'm expecting early April release. I certainly don't think they would make us wait until May. But it won't be released in March either, if that matters.
Sadly the Winter Championships happen at the end of March and they definitely aren't going to release new set before that. Jason Chayes (Production Director of Hearthstone) has also said that the new set will be coming "in the second quarter, not this month or the next month but very soon after that" (wording not 100% accurate, video interview where he says this is here, ~2 mins). So early April, I say.
Thank you Ben for announcing your retirement and leave HS alone.
Same for me, mate, I'm only playing for quests for 2 months
Jump from Tanariz (Gadgetzan), down to Ungoro. I know get it, a bit late..
Thank you Ben for the new release schedule, it will filter the meta bigly, fewer kids more adults
more like hearthstone week in recap. There's no opinions in making it a review
A review can mean just to summarize past events. Did you ever review for a test? Your not giving criticisms and opinion on the material, your just looking back over it. Please don't hypocritically berate others on their alleged misuse of English.
