Upcoming Hearthstone Content Announcement - July 22
It looks like we're getting an announcement about something new in the Hearthstone world real soon. Mark July 22 on your calendar - which interestingly, was the same day the Curse of Naxxramas adventure was released last year.
This news comes to us from PCGamer, who received a scroll in the mail today from Blizzard. We've got a transcription and picture of the scroll below.

Quote from Mysterious ScrollChampions are gathering from around the world to witness the next exciting thing Hearthstone has in s tore. News travels far and wide in search of brave new faces to answer the call to arms -- Are you one of them?Muster for battle and mark July 22 on your calendar. The next bit of news won't come by carrier pigeon -- thankfully, we have much better ways of communication now.
I'd have loved if they sent someone dressed as bard with a huge scroll singing the message to the PCGamer guys instead of sending it via mail.
Only Murlocks.And some ninjas.And some pirates.And Tournament mode.
No way its new axpansion. Way too fast, remember the last time we had expansion it took 4,5 month to make goblins (since naxx was released 22th of july and GvG on 8 december) . Blackrock was released on 2 April so it should take at least 4 months to make new expansion so we should have it in August i believe.
Thats the first thing, second thing, they ALWAYS told about expansion or adventure like 3 weeks before it was about to be released so people could save some gold (for wings or cardpacks). Now its only two weeks...
Third thing, those who read blueposts know that Blizzard told that they want to avoid HS become second MTG where u had shitloads of expansions and new players were unable to slip in, they told they want to make sth to help new players jump into the game with less difficulties like now (which is why they made Brawl! Free pack once a week, deck avaiable to all players which help people with weak collection to make dailies ect ect) sooo....
Is my oppinion it will be Argent Tournament-ish game mode like in game tournaments + two new heroes (like Magni and rest) or New class (less likely) we shall see but imho defo NOT new set of cards it would be way too fast.
Ps. It way as well be the date when we will get information about what this "new thing" is so for example 22 we get info and 2-3 weeks later we get the release but its also less likely... anyway all aboard hypetrain choo choooo
I really do hope it's an expansion and not just an adventure. I know how the pattern looks based on previous history, but still.
Lol, extra safe.
My guess:
New expansion, no new classes, no new game modes, lots of high elves and paladins, might be new type of minion: Crusader or something.
They added "crusader" to diablo 3 for consoles, you might be on to something. Very paly inspired note as well, n obviously there's the "muster for battle" wording.
The rest of the new heroes with paladin being the first one. I can't see them releasing another batch of cards so soon after BRM.
PLOT TWIST! New Paladin hero portrait!
Hmmm, paladin themed expansion or adventure (the first is more likely to happen)
Lots of weapons, divine shield and creature tokens, I guess =)
Put your faith in the
light!Blizzard!Can't it be just an announcement of next alternative heroes?
Crusaders?
OOOOOH baby *kreygasm*
New adventure mode for the win!
It's not going to be another adventure. It's going to be an expansion, if it goes by the pattern.
I've read some posts on the topic, You must be right given what they did previously we'll see! Anyway, my money is ready !!
I don't think we have enough data points to establish a pattern
Making a inference based on the aforementioned lack of data would be incredibly weak, statistically speaking, I agree.
Oh yeah because Blizzard is known for sticking to a pattern when releasing games xD
