the 9th march is the date for "a possible teases and whats next" panel for hearthstone. As we know this expansion is a big one with 100 plus cards, blizzard would have wanted To make sure all players from around the world to tune in and find out about the new expansion.
As blizzard as not officially confirmed this date on either their social media or website are we still sure this is the date for a tease?
normally they make a deal about expansion, but seem to not be currently teasing anything, whereas this time last we we were aware of the expansion being BRM (blackrock).
just seeing if people still expect the 9th to be a teaser :) even though nothing is confirmed or any date has been given, with only 5 days left.
i feel like the gap is kind of big :/ i know we wont be getting an expansion most likely in April, but Normally the teaser season is in march and with the 4th season of the same meta just beginning with no new info...is a little disappointing...But who know hopefully we can see something new soon :)
They just might be trying something different this time.
After the TAC crew going "we can neither confirm nor deny the march 9th event" it's safe to say that they will be there. If Blizzard is bringing out the TAC crew then it has to be some kind of new content. A set time will probably come soon, although I don't expect any teases this late in.

I returned to this game much like how a recovering alcoholic can relapse.

The TAC crew are going? that is cool :) when did they confirm this?
However, remember that with League of Explorers, they released it within a week of it being announced and honestly caught me off guard a bit. Perhaps they are trying to do something more along those lines with the upcoming expansion? Nonetheless, I'm still excited for the possible March 9th event.
Now that you say it.. it is weird that Blizz is so resigned about this 9th event. With TGT they sent out parchments playing melodies to all sorts of people. There was major hyping of the new content before we even knew what it was. And now this March 9th event is only known because Blizz made a press appointment. No official hyping at all... I was confident until now that we will se a reveal on the 9th, but I'm not sure anymore.
From a marketing and sales perspective, it seems unlikely that the 9th will have a major announcement. If anything, it will be an opportunity for Blizzard to announce another event to take place in the near future. An event with invites sent to major media publications, pros, personalities, fans, etc.
It was stated before that they didn't like how early naxx was teased/leaked to the players before the release. I can assume that when the next expo is shown it will come out within the same month.
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if they want this to be a surprise event. Also many pro-players, casters and journalists are going so it's oviously something HUGE so the reveal of the next expansion is the only explanation. Tho I am more curious when the expansion is released. It's unlikely but I would flip my table if they'd BOMB-release is on march 9th after the reveal.

I hope we get some sort of news at least. Considering it's been over a month since they started talking about it, with no news. I was hoping they'd at least be slowly showing which basic cards are going to be nerfed. Fingers crossed.
I've been looking in to this event the last days as well because I remember seeing it mentioned about a month ago but nothing since. My guess is that the expansion will be announced and they will do something similar to what they did with LOE where they give a release date of a week or two later (basically the end of March or the beginning of April).
The Asia Pacific Winter Championship is right at the end of March. I would imagine that they wouldn't release the expac before that, but it's possible especially if they plan on releasing it in NA/EU before Asia.

Do you know what streamers are going? :)
Also if it will be a live event on twitch? :P
If it is a reveal or any kind of a panel it's definitely going to be streamed. They made a custom event and streamed it on twitch when TGT was announced. As far as who's going I don't know the specifics, tho from what I have heard on streams and podcasts- Hafu mentioned some event that she is going to on her stream and around 2 weeks ago on TAC podcast a Senior Editor at Polygon, who was also in the secret Hearthstone meeting where they discussed Formats, said that he was going to some blizzard event "few weeks from now". Also apparently as someone said on a previous post "After the TAC crew going 'we can neither confirm nor deny the march 9th event' it's safe to say that they will be there." so TAC might be there too. That's all the people who I heard were going to this event, but I am sure there are tons of more streamers/caster/journalists going.
Trump just said on his stream that Blizzard will be flying him (and most likely other streamers/pros) out on March 8th for the meeting on March 9th. That makes me think that the March 9th meeting will be private and the public will get the info on March 11th.

Interesting. Thanks for the info. Now I am curious what the meeting will be about.. another 'secret' meeting? Maybe they want to discuss the nerfs, what pros think of standard/wild and all the negative feedback (like old packs not being purchasable anymore etc.). We'll provably find out sooner or later. :D

thanks for any information :D
I think the lack of announcement date (or at least some "getting closer" hints) so far has been a bit bizarre.
The changes were announced on Feb 2nd, and here it is March 4th with no real updates on when they'll be implemented.
Feel free to add me if you play on NA! iMPose#1429
Y its true we still have no news about the coming stadar mode etc. Maybe they want t do it as a surpirse? :P
I agree dude!

The lack of news lately is driving me crazy.

Well.. interesting. Apparently this thread was 2 hours too early. March 11, we have the date. It was provably just postponed 2 days.
