Don't get me wrong, The book of heroes looks AMAZING! I am so excited about playing it and having fresh content every month. I do think that is very healthy for the game and a great Idea! However, I am a bit disappointed that we are not going to have the story of Scholomance told.
Like I love single player stories and I was very excited to see what kind of things they were going to do with Scholomance Academy! They had such a good theme and really hyped up the story in many ways:
3: Alot of the card art like Flesh Giant andDisciplinarian Gandling showed a darker side of the school which would have been cool to explore.
Then they kind of just fell flat on their faces a bit and decided not the tell the story? Like I don't know how everyone else feels, but I just a little disappointed as I personally was excited for this story after all the hints which was dropped about something evil happening. Like from a flavor point a view I have so many questions like What happened to Infiltrator Lilian? What was the cult of the Damned doing under the school? Were all the teachers Evil as well? Did Headmaster Kel’Thuzad complete his goal? which now will never be answered.
Anyone else feel like it was a missed Opportunity a bit?
I'm not too bothered about HS lore and single player content, but classic Scholo imo is the best WoW dungeon ever (I was stoked for a Rattlegore card!). I agree it had the most potential for cool single player content since Frozen Throne and Lich King. Maybe too much lore and content for them to complete with covid? Does seem strange though.
So is this they brand new game mode they talked about! If so what an utter let down.
No, this is the "New Solo Experience". "New Game Mode" is a separate thing on the Year of the Phoenix Roadmap, and I have no evidence, but I'd personally bet they plan to launch it around when Blizzcon would be, like they did with Battlegrounds
I mean, the solo experience will be thematically about Scholomance, each month for another class. You can expect stuff about that at least in the warlock part then.
Honestly, no. This is better. A story mode about the origins of the ten default heroes sound better than a kiddy school adventure. Though I wonder how Illidan’s is gonna work since we kinda already got his origin story with the Demon Hunter Initiate missions.
I'm good. I've never really enjoyed the SP content. I really hated the Galakrond's Awakening as there is no other way to access those cards other than either spending money or loads and loads of gold.

Like I love single player stories and I was very excited to see what kind of things they were going to do with Scholomance Academy! They had such a good theme and really hyped up the story in many ways:
1: The trailer hinted from 48-56 seconds about an evil cult under the school https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyhD3x-MzNc
2: The post hinting a story about something darker in the school "Just . . . don’t go exploring those dusty crypts beneath the schoolgrounds. There’s no reason at all to be concerned about what Kel’Thuzad and the Cult of the Damned are stirring up down there ..." https://playhearthstone.com/en-gb/news/23453343/announcing-scholomance-academy-hearthstone-s-newest-expansion

I'm disappointed that you're disappointed :(

I am disappointed because it seems that there are no new cards in the middle of the expansion.
