Getting a new hero at the start of each year should have been established as a tradition, but yeah, Team 5 knows shit about consistency, so... :(
I know we didn't get a new hero at the start of the Year of the Kraken, but still, we got Maiev Shadowsong at the start of the Year of the Mammoth and Lunara at the start of the Year of the Raven.
As Ramsay Bolton once said: "Traditions are important, where are we without our history?" ;)
2 out of the past 5 years does not a tradition make.
Wow... No shit, Sherlock! First, I was talking about the years in Hearthstone, not in real life (we only had three so far and one more comming soon: the Year of the Dragon), I thought that was pretty clear. And second, that's why I said "Getting a new hero at the start of each year SHOULD have been established as a tradition", implying it's not a tradition yet... Sigh... Learn to read, please. :(
Next time we will not receive card back and people will say that hearthstone is dead, cos not enough hero skins and card backs. I recently watched an youtube video where someone complain how many wow mounts was behind real money pay wall... and the fact that we have 2-300 free mounts for which noone care is not that important :). Never understand how someone can complain about useless cosmetic items which dont change gameplay at all.
Mainly it would be nice to have a hero each year that you could look back on eventually at all the different heroes for the different years.
It is just a cool thing that they decided to stop doing. Didn’t cost them much and meant a lot to the players. If you don’t care about it that is fine, but if you lack the ability to understand how someone could possibly feel differently than you do about it then there is nothing I can say to change your mind.
They should bring back Tyrande like they said they would 3 years ago
Seriously... I wasn't playing hearthstone at the time she was exclusive to twitch which is completely dumb in first place... pretty stupid to not allow people a chance to get her again.. whatever.
I believe he meant that ther wont be a Year of the dragon hero, like a hero tied to the year of the dragon, but we will see heros during the year may even the very first expansion

Hmmm . . .
You seem to be upset about a broken promise that was never made in the first place. it isn't really a matter of other folks "lacking the ability to understand" how upset you are - rather, folks are simply critical of what appears to be an unwarranted expectation. Surely, the devs don't have to warn us every time they give us a bunch of free shit that they might not continue to give us the same kind of free shit in the same way in the future - but that seems to be exactly what you are upset about.
Given that the AMA confirms that we'll be getting hero skins, and lots of other free shit, over the course of the year . . . why not relax, and see how much free shit they actually give us, rather than bitch about it long before they even begin handing it out?

Obviously you didn’t even read or comprehend what you quoted. If it wasn’t going to happen they could have told people earlier instead of waiting 11 months since the last one to do it. They did it for 2 years running and established an expectation. It was not an unwarranted expectation. It was highly warranted. If it wasn’t an expectation then why were so many people asking about it at the AMA?
If it wasn’t an expectation why was it even addressed at the AMA?

No new Hero portrait saddens me but will we get new Hero Cards ?
With the Frozen throne moving to wild, only Hagatha the Witch, Dr. Boom, Mad Genius, and Zul'jin will remain.
It seems Shaman, Warrior, and Hunter will have a huge advantage in the new year.
Edit: Oops! Forgot about Lord Jaraxxus.

Sure, but theres other things like cardbacks that do the same thing. I dont really care if theres a new year hero or not.
remember guys its just an small indie company!

You mean they are deciding not to dedicate resources to content that doesn't affect the play or state of the game at all? More of that please!
To be honest I was expecting a new Priest portrait too and that yes is disappointing
Everyone was looking forward to it

They're bringing back un-nerfed jaina - 10$.
