New Keyword: Recruit
Cards with the Recruit keyword immediately summon minions from your deck and put them into play. Some cards recruit minions that match certain conditions; others recruit randomly chosen minions.
Spellstones
Spellstones are a new type of card which can be upgraded during play! Once you fulfill a listed condition, such as playing two Elemental minions, the card upgrades into a more powerful version.
Unidentified Items
Unidentified Items are cards which when put into your deck don't have a predetermined effect. When the card is put into your hand, the effect of the card will become known. Each item has its own pool of effects that it can randomly choose from.

Yeah just what we need, a way for Exodia mage to speed up their draws even more to dig for the combo.
Ques mage realy loves card draw.
But they tend to run into hand size issues as is (unless they draw only combo pieces) and good luck playing 3-4 cards a turn every turn as Mage, because otherwise you just burned some combo pieces.
That new board got me like ...
Will some of the old expansions get phased out when this comes out?
Neither of them
Thanks!
Early next year the rotation comes, and Whispers of the old gods + Mean streets of gadgetzan are rotating out.
not yet, the one after
What do they mean by upgrade? Will meeting the condition give you a better version of the card or..?
Yes, it gives you a better version of it if you upgrade them. For example the lesser sapphire spellstone will read “Summon 2 copies of a friendly minion (overload 3 to upgrade)” and the last upgrade will be summon 3 copies.
The Warrior one deals 2 / 4 / 6 damage to a minion. Each upgrade 2 more damage. Each upgrade is acquired when you gain 3 armor.
It's a druid card.
Harrison Jones favorite expansion :D
Time to craft Harrison Jones if you don't already have him boys!
Source for "Everyone will get one free Legendary weapon."? Is it controllable in any way? (I mean, I want golden Rogue legends anyway, is there a way I can avoid getting a regular Rogue weapon by chance?)
Only way to guranteed getting a golden legendary is to craft it. I did it with Bloodreaver Gul'dan, crafted gold before getting the free frozen throne DK
Sure, that's exactly what I did with Valeera. The question is: will we get a chance to craft our goldens before opening the free one?
Just like "Everyone will get one free Death Knight" in Frozen Throne.
I'm guessing after you do your first dungeon run you'll get one randomly.
I know you get the standard special card back for completing a dungeon run with all 9 classes. But will you get something special for completing just one difficult run? Like gold for card packs, dust for legendaries, or at least one card pack? If so, this would be a single player repeatable adventure similar to arena runs. It would encourage players to come back to this expansion even after other expansions are released.
