So, I am very disappointed, even with the rotation, Hunter, shaman and Warrior have one. Why the other classes haven't? I am so disappointed that I might skip the preorder only for this.
That's a lame reason. The motivation they gave us was pretty exhaustive (Hero cards were mostly a Year of the Mammoth thing and they wanted to take a break) and think about it: Shaman is shit right now and Hunter will lose a lot with the rotation.
Moreover, we aren't the only ones noticing this difference between the classes: the Devs know it too and I'm sure they'll behave correctly. Remember that you can make a class strong even without giving it a Hero Card.
If your point Is that Hero Cards are very cool I agree with you, it's a shame, but this expansion will be huge and funny even without it. Just look at the pure gold they are releasing. It's something different and (now that all the powerful cards are gone) actually playable.
It is not a lame reason :). Hero cards are much funnier, even if they sucks. I wanted a new hero cards like the other classes have. It is not pointless. And no. For me it will not be funny without the hero cards. It will be like Boomsday and Rastakhan a floop. I am pretty sure that most of us agree that knights of the frozen throne was the best expansion, for one reason: hero cards. Or at least the most interesting one. I remember that during the released I was so hyped in knowing what will be the hero power and battlecry of the hero cards for the classes that I liked. The disappointment is very very high.
Well, it's not a lame reason but you judge an entire set of 135 cards (more or less) based on the presence of a specific type of card. Am I right?
You'll see soon with your own eyes that Hero Cards don't necessarily mean fun.
P.S.: Rastakhan and Boomsday did have Hero Cards, so you invalidated yourself. Those expansions were a "floop" for other reasons (one of which are Frozen Throne's DKs)
I think they should take a break from hero cards. Many DK cards had 0 counters or play around, they are played and they are constant value generation. Just like Hagatha you do get value but its random and can be clunky silly shaman spells (less like boom, but Bakuu is leaving so it is good)
Uther has his moments with OTK decks but can be beaten and you know the game plan from turn 2-3. Thrall is a joke. Anduin got nerfed. Valeera is just value generation like rexxar but more expensive and no tempo swings on battelcry. Garrosh is another joke. Malfurion is balanced and no complaints.
Jaina and Rexxar are the worst offenders. Guldan is powrful but with proper removal/mind control/transform effects you mess up their rez pool. But you cannot play around rexxar infinite value or beast cards, you must kill him but cheap rush + lifesteal is nasty. Jaina should be changed to only water elementals grant lifesteal (I know she is rotating but for sake of wild too)
They said that hero cards are kinda hard to balance since some of them end up pretty strong , so they won’t print any hero cards in this expansion at least that’s what peter Whalen said on Twitter.It doesn’t necessary mean we won’t see any hero cards in the future though.

I hope they will stop printing that stupid type of cards.
