I predict that they will change the ladder reward system to include a golden pack of you hit legend.
You've got to sweeten the pot if you want to incentivize people to make that monthly climb!
100% noway
So on average legend reward will be worse than Rank 5-1 reward? (guaranteed golden epic is better than a pack at least 70-80% of the times)
I was thinking that the golden pack would be in place of the golden common that you currently get for legend. You would still get the golden epic for hitting rank 5. Maybe wishful thinking, but I think it's curious that they announced the concept of the golden pack recently and think they are going to use it for more than just the twitch prime promotion.
i think they would give us more tech cards like :battlecry steal your opponent weapon.and legendary that will replace all draw effects outside start of turn with healing , and maybe rebalance some legendaries like lich king and kazakus those cards give good value but they added some effects that you dont want to use like ever. talking about 10 cost potion that freezes 3 enemy minions and for lich king doom pact+ army of the dead should be reworked. army == mass ressuserction, doom pact should still burn cards but not when you have more minions than your opponent. and about theme i think its time to calm a bit and have fun in pandaria.
Here is my 16 cents worth... flame on ;)

This is something I am sure won't happen so I wanted to place it in a separate post.
I would love to see Warlocks get something like a "secret" without it being called a secret. Warlocks can create Healthstones and Soulstones in WoW and used to be able to create Firestones and Spellstones so I would like "stones". Stones would be spells that placed something in the secret spot on your hero frame but they would not be secret, everyone could see them and what would trigger them and they could trigger on your own turn.
I know they seem odd and possibly a bit weak and people hate discard mechanics. But a think a new mechanic like non-secret-secrets would add a new dimension to Warlocks.

new rogue legendary: Vanessa Van Cleef :O
:o i didn't even read a single line, maybe it was "a bit" long. But thank you to be this guy who forces people to scroll the page for 20 min to see the other comments
(I'd love to see) THIS.
So I didn't do very well in my predictions :(
...
I was a little shocked (and pleasantly so) that they did the Dungeon Run in place of an Adventure. They have since clarified that they plan to do "Single Player Content" alongside each expansion in an interview I think with the Angry Chicken folks.
Here are my predictions:
Hit the nail on the HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
