Panel Recap
We're covering this live. Refresh for updates!
- Trolls are awesome - Peter Whalen 2018
- They wanted to capture the essence of all different types of trolls. Best way to do it? Fight!
- The characters each class will see will come from the faction each champion represents.
- Overkill - they wanted people to feel powerful, you're a gladiator after all.
- Spirits - they wanted build-arounds for all the classes.
- Originally, spirits were unable to be removed. It didn't feel good.
- Spirits also at one point had lots of health. Still chances to not do your "cool thing". Stealth helps give you a better chance of getting to combo with it.
- Spirits are all for the early game. Do your cool stuff at the start of the game when it isn't yet decided.
- Loa are super awesome legendaries. They feel like the classes they are in.
- Loas aren't meant to go in every deck, they need to go in "the right deck".
- Each class has their own team they are a part of. Each team has a Loa.
- Spirit cards are intended to work with their Loa. They're going to go in similar decks.
- A Troll Champion is also on each team. They are a legendary minion (one class gets a hero instead)
- The other seven cards (non Loa, Champion, Spirit) are going to be within each class' theme.

Almost everyone who saw that keyword for the first time guessed exactly what it does.
Immortal Prelate + Desperate Stand ?
new dreadsteed? you will never lose to fatigue?
I don't think it will keep the buffs after being ressurected
I asked Peter Wahlen and he replied: "Unbuffed. Only the shuffled copy keeps buffs"
So ye.. not immortal but you get a 2nd copy of an unbuffed minion which also gets shuffeled back into your deck.. more cards vs fatigue
My spellbreaker tends to disagree!
More like deck trahing with 2 mana 1/3s
Anyone else missing the new shaman hero, card back and locked packs in game even after the purchase was clear? This is the first time it happened to me out of all the pre expansion purchases.
If they didn't patch them yet any idea when it might be happening?
What's the point of purchasing it right after they announced if the new hero isn't available to play? "Trolling" at it's best.
I haven't received my pre order yet.
didnt get it either but maybe its just because it isnt patched for some reason and right now its blizon.... i wont be swinging the forks until monday or so :)
Going off of what happened with Mecha Jaraxxus, it should be sometime next week, just because of Blizzcon. The reason why none of the preorder stuff is there is just because there hasn't been a patch yet to add them yet. With Mecha Jaraxxus, it was added a day after it was revealed so after Blizzcon is done on the 4th, it should be here soon™.
It's not patched in yet, like if you go and view your heroes and card backs, they aren't there. I'm guessing the patch will be Tuesday that puts those in, along with some other stuff they've yet to add in.
Well they certainly aren't holding onto all the strong cards for the release! These cards looks really strong.
I feel for any non-pirate Wild players though... Jeez!
I think fatigue paladin will be available. Pala has a lot of great control tools as for this moment. He doesnt lack much. I ended rank 3 last season with mech control paladin and a lot of games ended with each player's empty deck.
My first thought after seeing the warlock legendary: Copy Token Lock?
We do have a certain numbers of minions that copy themselves. If warlock gets a card alike Saronite Chain Gang I think it would look more viable with Soul Infusion and Spirit of the Bat when played to kill of your "token" minions.
warlock already has the omega dudes and imp chain gang + saronite + new legendary => already 7 good targets for soul infusion
the only problem is that the handbuff theme is based around their 2 drop Spirit of the Bat which can't be used with Prince Keleseth
Paladin Champion seems to be High Priest Thekal who has 2 different forms.... troll and tiger (Zul'Gurub boss)
my prediction is a deathrattle effect similar to Cairne Bloodhoof, transforming him into his tiger-form with different keywords
\o/ \o/ \o/ cheering for Shirvallah Loa!! \o/ \o/ \o/
Lol yeah.
If the spirits become meta. It’s gonna be a flare meta ;)
or just a Void Ripper meta.
Void Contract ... why ... ?
because Thanos
