Wild Set Rotations
There are no set rotations happening with the release of this expansion. They only happen at the start of a new year.
You can learn more about set rotations in our dedicated guide.
New Keyword: Overkill
Cards with Overkill trigger additional effects when they kill a minion by doing damage that exceeds the minion’s health.
There are currently 14 Overkill cards in the game. You can see Overkill cards in our database or see a sampling down below.
The Loa
Among the countless brawlers who are competing in Rastakhan’s Rumble, a handful of legendary loa are ready to shake the competition to its core.
The Spirits
Spirits are special minions with abilities that can turn the tide of battle. Elusive creatures, spirits enjoy stealth the first turn they’re in play.
New Playable Hero - Zul'jin
Hunters are the lucky ones this time around.

Poll: Free Loa
Which Loa did you receive for free upon logging in?
Poll: Desirable Loa
Was the Loa you received for free one of the ones you wanted?
Poll: Showing Team Spirit
If you received a free card pack through the Team Spirit promotion, was the free Loa you received the same class that you championed?
It shouldn't be the case, but this is just a fun poll!

You crazy.
To be fair, Val'anyr has the potential to be nutso with him, if you can pull it off.
/crazy
I cant wait... Im all shaking...
This future is hacked indeed. It seems people already got their freebie Loa and chose their answer in poll lol
I'll be resetting it as the expac goes live :D
Did Fireside Gathering participants get them?
It isn't long now people......
May you log in without queues.
May your packs amaze.
May you find joy in the Rumble!!!!*
*maybe I overdid that last bit.
Ehr... guys, did you notice, in this piece of news' heading? It says
to be published 3 hours from now
We're living in the future, right now! Mind-boggling!! XD
Man I really hope I get Jan'alai as my free Loa!
I will be sad if I get Gral, the Shark.
Its not as bad as it seems. I got it. And mage loa as well. And I dont even play those classes. I just dont enjoy the gamestyle. 50 packs. 2 legendaries for classes I dont even play.
Spend ton of money and pack your things cause you cant even play. Thats how it looks.
Yeah that's why I would be sad. I don't like the current archetypes of Rogue. I would dig a Tempo Pirate deck, but Gral would also be bad there. We shall see.
HYPE.
1 mistake though: "Zul'jin doesn't have a special hero power since he uses the normal Hunter one, but damn is that one awesome effect.".
It's deal 2 damage, but you can chose the target. Don't mean to be a smartass
Hype in progress
████████░░░░ 69%
a professional hacker was here
High preist thekal is probably the most hyped legendary of the set tho
Maybe, but I'm not the one with upside down text referencing Deathwing mate :) That's super hacky.
Guess I should prepare myself to spend all that hard earned gold and be poor again!
The clickable link for the list of Overkill minions mentions Magnetic minions, i guess that should be changed ;)
Otherwise: HYPE!!! Got 67 Packs Preordered! :D
New Expansion Day M-F-ers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Party in the comments before this post actually goes live!
If you are reading this and it is before 11 AM Eastern on December 4th, you're a hacker. HACK THE PLANET!
Guess I hacked in lol, I just clicked the link in the timer btw, in case u wanna block it
