HearthPwn: What made this expansion theme so compelling? What made it cool over other things you discussed?
Dean: The first thing we did obviously was we chose to have a new class and chose Illidan for that. So then we kind of had to do something that’s loosely related to Illidan.
In Hearthstone it’s a little bit easier to take a more broad location and take all of Outland and put a little bit of Hearthstone spin on it. It’s still Warcraft universe, still very much Outland, still going to see a lot of the places you remember if you played in the Burning Crusade expansion in World of Warcraft.

Primes:
Primes are new, special legendaries introduced in Ashes of Outland for all the original 9 Classes, but not for Demon Hunter. They all work in the same way: they have a base version, which when killed returns as a stronger version to your deck, to be drawn again and played again. The upgraded Prime minions have some spectacular effects, as you can see below:

HearthPwn: What was the Inspiration behind the Primes, the new Legendaries that you introduce with Ashes of Outland?
Dean: Primes are characters where you wonder “What would it be like if they came back?” and they come back in bigger, better, more awesome versions after they were defeated the first time.
Imprisoned Demons:
What would Outland be without some Demons? These particular Demons are called “Imprisoned Demons” because when you play them they stay dormant on the battlefield for 2 turns. During this time no one can interact with them, neither you nor your opponent.
When they finally awaken, they unleash an awesome effect. Imprisoned Demons can be tricky to play with as you will spend mana on a turn that only pays off later, but it promotes strategy and turn planning and has some amazing payoffs as you can see below:

Guys, I beg you, help with the standart deck to defeat heroic Lady Vashj , pleeeease
Every class gets a Prime card except DH :(
so disapointed in the new gameboard.. visually nice.. interactivity on a stormwind city level.. which was.. first one.. really ? you cant do better blizzard ? :D you made volcano explode.. and other things.. no lets break the bridge.. or sparkling giant robot.. :D siiight...
It's alive!
what do you mean ?? last two maybe i dunno expansions was on midnight :D im pretty sure :/
He's right, the last few years it's been around 1pm EST.
So, does anyone have a clue if all the pve adventure for this expansion will be free? I think it was only the DH prologue. Because when i played it, it said something like "this chapter is on us", like the other adventures that really had only the first chapter for free.
Anyone knows what time of the day (including time zone) will expansion be released tomorrow?
10AM Pacific Time
19 and half hour more ?? .... crap seriosly.. what happen to midnight release ?? :/
It's probably different for each region, time differences and all. But for me, it's been 1 pm EST for the last 3 years. I haven't seen a midnight release since Nax.
Europe will be probably late as usual. Wouldn't expect it sooner than 19-20
It's like it's always. 10 hours from this post away, So 7 pm CEST.
Hmm i hope it will come at midnight.. is there somewhere time release ? :D
I haven't played Hearthstone for a long time, lots of my cards are gone, and I was wondering if you would need to create decks with your own cards or with decks given by the adventure.
Besides, should I pay the prebundle or would it be better to only buy the adventure in order to enjoy the next meta?
I don't know what adventure you're referring to. The latest adventure released is Galakrond's Awakening, which has some really good cards in it that will stay in Standard for pretty much two years from now, so I do advise getting that. The PvE content from this expansion hasn't been announced in detail yet, but it will be FREE, so no worries there. As far as the pre-bundle goes, this is probably one of the best pre-bundles offers ever, so if you can afford it, I'd go for it. Also, you'll get a free deck if you haven't logged in in 4 months and those will probably have a lot of cards that will be useful in this next meta, although ones more than others, so I'd do some research before choosing.
I can't believe there isn't a Fel Reaver card, unless I missed it. It could have been an 8 Cost 15/15 that lies dormant unless the opposing player ends their turn with a minion directly across from it. (Think of the chess brawl mechanics). FeelsSadMan
Fel Reaver from goblins vs gnomes
Usually it's both
