Update 1:24 PM EDT: Added PlayHearthstone's German tweet, which is different.
More Cryptic News - Champions
The @PlayHearthstone twitter account has tweeted out a new photo and line of text which is in line with yesterday's article.
Quote from @PlayHearthstoneChampions are individuals who courageously answer the call of those who require their aid! (@PlayHearthstone)Ein Champion ist jemand, der all seine Mitstreiter in einem Wettbewerb übertroffen hat.

What will we see July 22?
We've seen a few different pieces of information now leading up to the July 22 announcement.
- July 2 - PCGamer received a scroll in their mailbox mentioning a gathering of champions.
- July 8 - The Hearthstone team posted a blog post talking about happiness in the air, shining armor, and people getting impaled.
- July 9 - A tweet with the picture of a Blood Elf stating champions answer the call of those who need aid.
This information seems to also link up to the recent Hearthstone Commercials that Blizzard have been putting out, which are all staged in a jousting pit - A gathering of armored folk where people get impaled. This however, is pure speculation.
The best champion here is Mukla's Champion.
Good card.
....
IF champions are becoming a thing, are they basically Magic the Gathering Planeswalkers?
I just hope we see new cards in whatever the new content is. Just constantly tossing new "modes" at us is going to get tiring after awhile.
Yes and it would fragment the player base.
It's obviously a tournament at this point.
yay Lady Liadrin for the paladin hero alternate
I really hope they don't do an expansion because I do not have any $ to buy the packs :(. But, I really hope they add a tournament mode, it would be really good to be able to have a tourny with my friends, and would allow pro tourny's to be set up much easier.
Start saving your gold now? I buy every adventure and buy my xpac packs with gold. Currently, I'm at ~1300 gold with around ~600-700 gold in quests.
Hope we see some completely new type of cards and rules. I would love to see some more ways to spend your mana into curve. Something that can be activated even when placed on the board.
I made this card to demonstrate what I mean by that, nothing to serious.
Yes! I am so glad someone else is thinking about introducing cards just like this. I'd love to see minions will abilities on them that are activated by spending extra mana.
Sounds cool, but how would they do that with the current ui? There's currently no way to choose to spend mana on things that aren't cards or to choose between variable costs on things. Mana spending is an automatic process unlike in MTG where you manually "tap" each one. So yeah... if they were going to add such a mechanic they'd have to make a new command for that. Perhaps right clicking the minion on the board?
Well there is always a way to make it work. Your right clicking the minion is the best idea so far and must be the easiest way to do it. Although, can't right click on phones. Perhaps some type of swipe motion idk. Bottom line, there are several solutions.
Why not submitting this into the Weekly Design Contest after some adjustment to the theme?
New priest and she's bae.
So wait, I'm confused...is the expansion or whichever CONTENT being released on July 22nd or INFORMATION of the content being released on the 22nd?
I think it's just going to be the official announcement by Blizzard of whatever content patch is coming out next. If it's an expansion, expect it to be released (hopefully) in August. September at the latest.
The latter i guess.
This websites guess work and assumptions and speculations are pure toss lol i bet its got nothing to do with anything that your all guessing.
