Adventure?? That's not that kind of release dude. It's new cards, not am adventure. I think they mentioned just one adventure prologue thing, but just one. The rest is a normal expansion. Link your info??
Whispers of the old gods is rotated ?
Nope, rotations only happen with the first expansion of the year. So Whispers is gone as of next year.
the first 2018 expansion, which will likely be next april. That's when old gods, mean streets and karazan are gone. and discard warlock quests is even more worthless lol.
I love that gameboard. That's awesome <3
I just don't like the concept of Priest Thoughstealing or Mind Visioning some of opponent Death Knight versions and turning into them (like Anduin transforming into Death Knight Garrosh, WTF?) . Seems sooooo wrong. Also will Lord Jaraxxus turn into a Hero? His mechanic is almost the same except he has his own health.
What about the skins? Medivh will turn into Jaina, Tyrande into Anduin, etc. So I don't think it's gonna be like that. Since even the quest cards can be stolen given the opportunity, I believe heroes will be the same.
Blizzard can easily remove those cards from the pool of options for any card that steals from another class, if they want to. And Jaraxxus will continue to replace the status of any hero at the time he is played.
Imagine Hunter Alleria holding in hand only one Deathstalker Rexxar Hero card and Priest plays Mind Vision. So should he get nothing? Or he gets his own Death Knight Hero card? Most probably he'll just get Death Knight Rexxar and turn into him later.
All of this variants looks bs to me, i dont care about the downvotes, this new mechanic is really lazy way to add Death Knight into the game.
Mana bind thoughtsteal and mind vision for sure. Maybe renounce darkness and some rogue cards too. Plenty of ways to turn your hero into another In theory. Are they spells, minions, or an entirely new type of card.? They look like minions, kind of. The only legendary spells are the quest ones...
Update the article, cause preorder is already available in game store.
I like the text "A symphony of frost and flame" and the relation it has with "A song of ice and fire"
Actually , it was the name of WCIII:TFT's final mission
Frost is referring to Arthas
Flame is referring to Illidan
Ohhh! Never got that... Red the books after playing W3. I'm actually replaying it on this days.
Thank's for reminding me that!
They've already stated that you will get a legendary in the first 10 packs of the expansion, Plus theres some PvE stuff that comes along with this expansion, and they've said that there are rewards for beating it. Plus, no dupe legendary cards anymore. So, it's not that bad. Plus with the 2x quest gold from this summer festival, it should be easy stock up to like, 2k gold before the expansion even drops. which is 20 more packs, which should net another legendary. So that's 3 (or more depending on the entirely free PvE rewards) legendary cards, with none of them being a duplicate. While it won't put you up with people who do drop like, $100 or more on the expansion, you can still get 3 legendary cards minimum, entirely for free.
Battlecry: make Naxx Out again
Am i the only one who hopes for Arthas as a neutral hero card? :D
