Quote from DaxxarriRikkar stood on the intricately cobbled path and gazed up at the fabled Gurubashi Arena. Ever since he was a little troll, he’d dreamt of being here, preparing to compete at the legendary Rumble. As the crowd streamed past him toward the gates, he paused to savor the moment: the thrill of anticipation on the air, the roar of the crowd in the stands, the grimaces of pain as chumps paid the scalper for last minute tickets. Nothing in the world was like Rastakhan’s Rumble!
Rikkar had spent his whole life preparing for this moment (and bought his tickets two years ago. He wasn’t foolish). Last time the Rumble was held, Rikkar was small enough to watch the action from his father’s shoulders, screaming at the top of his lungs along with the crowd as he witnessed High Priest Thekal clinch the final for the Tigers over the Sharks. He knew it then: someday HE would be down on the sands, and the crowd would be roaring HIS name!
As he joined the long line leading into the arena, the team posters that adorned the walls caught his eye. They were pristine, unlike his well-loved, but creased and faded collection back at the village.
The Tigers! Now there was a team! Rikkar could see himself earning Shirvallah’s favor and wearing the gold. He’d been training all his life: he had the eye of the tiger . . . the thrill of the fight . . . the wing of a bat . . . and a few other animal parts, just in case. Rikkar came prepared.
One thing you could say for the Bats, Hir’eek’s team knew how to get the job done. And shriek. And do absolutely anything it takes to win. Rikkar had to respect the initiative.
Why be a Bat when you could be a Rhino though? No fancy tactics or thinking. Got a problem? Smash it! Don’t got a problem? Smash it anyway! Plus, everybody loves War Master Voone. Not only are Voone’s parties legendary, rumor has it that he’s got friends in high places. Blackrock Mountain is pretty high up, right?
Rikkar couldn’t believe it. Twenty years later, he was finally part of the crowd thronging into the Gurubashi Arena. His heart was resolved: he wasn’t just here to watch the spectacle this time. He was here to compete! Somehow. . . .
He just needed a chance to prove himself!
But which team would he join? Which Loa would he pledge himself to?

What's so good about Gadgetzan's theme? It's just about some gangs fighting each other. I can't see how that could ever be better than the themes of expansions like Whispers of the Old Gods, Journey to Un'Goro and Knights of the Frozen Throne.
Ok
Ticket Scalper Seems reasonable but remember guys the 3 HEALTH rule.
Anything with 3 health is easily killable.
soo 4 mana draw 2 cards MAYBE, MAYBE draw 2 cards.
Warlock is more like "The bat guys".
10 Golakka Crawlers of 10!
Ticket Scalper will be good if they print a 3-drop Pirate lord that gives them Rush, which I can see being something like a Rogue Epic 3/3
But Rogue doesn’t really need another 4 mana minion to draw them cards, I imagine this could go in Warrior or maybe that new Mad priest deck :o
So is Priest gonna have a Dragon or Bird-like spirit? 🤔
actually, priest will get a Zombie spirit, the leak(?) is already in the link.

Paladin = Tiger, Warlock = Bat, Druid = Raptor, Hunter = Lynx, Shaman = Frog, Mage = Dragonhawk, Warrior = Rhino, Rogue = Shark, Priest = Zombie
The weird thing is, all spirits are beasts except priest's, doesn't quite fit the theme, but I guess Blizzard just want to push more deathrattle support into priest (obviously, this is only my guess).
OMG Really? he is Bwonsamdi, the Loa of Death. Dude this is a warcraft game, its not that important but characters do have background (at least the most important ones)
The Spirits are Loa. Not all Loa are beasts, but most are. It's kinda hard to call them beasts because they all talk, make deals and sometimes backstab eachother.
Yip is also a must kill because his effect is repeatable.
I dont know if this expansion is gonna be good but this lore is the best since Gadgetzan
But Gadgetzan was one of the worst expansions lore-wise..?
Worgen Greaser is crying seeing this.
Worgen Greaser was not even great in arena. They really need to print a card to make vanillas relevant.
Only on your turn
This is a good arena card. If it had rush/charge, this card would be busted.
Edit: i meant the ticket scalper
Ticket Scalper could work alright with Flark's Boom-Zooka.
Deepest lore
