Arthas is Your Lich King! Knights of the Frozen Throne Missions Information Roundup
We're seeing some information trickle out about the upcoming Expansion's Mission/Adventure content! Check out everything from this weekend so far down below.
- The Lich King will be manned by Arthas, not Bolvar.
- Some bosses or villians you fight during the Missions will also be featured in collectible cards.
- Missions will be harder than usual, but not every fight will be on the same level as Heroic bosses were.
- The prologue will see you fight with a pre-made deck.
- You'll see 2 wings with 6 bosses total after the Prologue. The Lich King is then in the third and final wing.
- The final battle against The Lich King will be different based on which class you choose to play.
- If you defeat The Lich King with all 9 classes, you will receive a special reward.
- They haven't meme'd up The Lich King. He's cold and cruel just like in Warcraft.

Quote from Ben BrodeHow hard will Ice Crown Citadel "adventure" be compared with old adventures? E.g normal is 0% and Heroic is 100%. 25% 50%? 75%?
Depends on the mission. Should be more of a challenge than old normal.
But not as hard as heroic?
Not for most of the fights. (Source)
Will the Lich King in Hearthstone be Bolvar or Arthas?
Arthas (Source)
Info on that and much more
hi
first wing: marrowgar, deathwhisper and overlord Saurfang.
second wing: putricide, Lanathel and Sindragossa.
is it possible that a new skin will be added like the last expansion?
Arthas is no god of death.
Dranosh Saurfang is the perfect warrior legendary for this expansion :D
did dave kosak say , they will release 135 or 435 new cards ?
"There is a FULL hundred and thirty five cards set"
Idk why but since MSoG i just cant bring myself to be hyped anymore
How can you not get hyped about the Lich King? =O
cuz its HS lich king -.- its kinda like asking someone to get hyped for batman when he appears in family guy
Adam West is literally the mayor of Quahog on Family Guy. So if you get hyped for his cameos, then sure!
Im more excited for the adventure than the card release tbh. Adventures have been such a great side challenge for HS and the story's have been generally great.
#hyped
I guess that we will see how each class dies and become deathknight during those fight with artas.
It's so epic
Forever.
We don't know - but looking at previous adventures, I would say that they stay forever, at least if you have progressed into the missions :)
I was hoping it had to do with what class you beat it with but I guess with a premade deck that won't happen.
So only 3 free packs right? :/
Nobody said that. In Un'Goro we learnt that we would get free packs some days before the expansion
