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.

That's what they all said about Keleseth and Baku/Genn, you don't know until you try
hunter doesn't need new hero card, for me Bwsomandi would be a lot better hero than Zul'jin according to actual WoW lore. Also hunter still has pretty powerful DK that seems most play, and after Raza nerf and rotating it out, Anduin sits in the shadow corner
Deathstalker Rexxar is perhaps the strongest death knight of them all. The hero power beats all of the other death knights really. Bwomsandi will hopefully synergize well with deathrattle or introduce a new mechanic to priest.
that's why im a bit salty for hunter getting a new hero card, Rexxar needed that the least
The Dreamer in me says Shirvallah would be a lot more playable if it was even costed. Even Paladin has Consecration, Equality, Blessing of Kings at times, Spikeridged Steed, it's really not that hard to get to 24 or 26, but impossible to run Shirvallah.
Missed opportunity to make it actually a playable card and bringing back control Paladin. Yet again.
P.S. - It's still far more playable than Hir'eek, at least. So much setup just to be mass-removed is really not what Warlock needs.
What is loa?
Loa are the challengers, one for each class. Their spirits are supposed to work with them.
super a w e s o m e legendaries
The spirit animals in the trailer
If Zul'jin was to become a hero class, I'd imagine it would be either rogue or hunter due to his stealthiness. Preferably, since hunter already has an amazing DK that isn't yet rotating, it would be rogue. Valeera finds it difficult to see play as it is quite slow at 9 mana.
Love the new expansion theme and I hope they completely scrap the card "void contract" as it seems broken and unhealthy as fk.
Yeah, Euro is worth more, but there is far higher VAT tax in most European countries than in the US. Blame our governments and not Blizzard. It is the same with every product.
There is absolutely no reason to add VAT to digital purchases. Israel definitely doesn't do it, and if I ever intended to pay money for Hearthstone I'd still have to pay the same in Euro.
You can actually pay in USD even in the EU region. Just head in the US.Shop instead of Eu and it will charge you at the same cost with the difference being USD.
I have been saving some Euros this way for the past 2 years since i figured it out.
We'll be paying $67 for the bundle here in Australia. $17 extra for nothing at all.
Btw for everybody who couldnt see it live: the hero card is going to be for hunter , Zuljin, which will be released later
What battlecry (or else) and hero power will it have?
nothing is anounced yet. we have to wait for it
I'm excited to see that the high power level of the last year might come to an end with this years expansions.
Hey, Im a troll!
This is my expansion YAY
Based on Warlock's spirits + Loa, my guess is that Paladin's Spirits will generate spells and Rogue's Loa will derive its bonus from the number of combos played.
