Developer Insights: The Season of Rastakhan
Hearthstone's Live Content Designer, Joseph "joemag" Magdalena, talks about the upcoming Season of Rastakhan and what we can look forward to in the Brawl of Champions.
Season of Rastakhan begins this week and runs from February 13 - March 3.
- There are three weeks of special tavern brawls.
- Special Quest: Play 3 Brawls, get a Rastakhan's Rumble pack. (Quest available once per week during event)
- Choose a Rumble Champion and play with their Shrine.
- Champions have a new deck and shrine each week during the event.
Can't wait for the week with the rogue card steal shrine.
Yikes. Fresh news of a new round of layoffs coming to Acti-Blizzard. The dark times might be ahead for our game. :(
So does it mean that we will receive two quests tomorrow?
Wow. I mean... they really needed Ben Brode for this kind of stuff...
Agreed.
"Thanks for rumbling".
I agree.
But Brode will never be...

He was a creature of team5
he will never be

(Ok maybe I hang out too much in Sjow‘s channel..)
Hopefully they will announce next expansion after this rastashit season.
Well first they have to announce the announcement of the announcement.
29 february I expect announce of Hall Of Fame
It won't be until 30th february they said.
"Champions have a new deck and shrine each week during the event"
Sounds like we are going to play with the lowest value shrine for the first week (for each class) and progress to a higher value every week after. You can see it during play-testing in the video trailer too. I think it's fair, since no player will get a higher value shrine due to RNG and win instantly!
I can't wait for week 2 to play with priest, if they have the blood medic from the solo mission!
Bloodwash Medic is so cool, they should've added it to the card pool for priest (a nerfed version for sure though)
The Un'Goro solo content was Ben Brode's "Journey to Un'Goro" rap!
We r Gonna be Rich !
Its really amazing how they can make deffrent brawls every week but still they didnt add any new mode to the game .....
its amazing how they dont make new brawls every week.

I look forward to these brawls - I think they are going to be fun.
Rastakhan's Rumble solo content - WORST EVER! Ungoro, Lich, Cobolds+++1000, WW, and even Boom solo are better then that! who up?
i don't understand why this post gets so many downvotes. the man is merely speaking his mind.
about the topic tho, I agree that the solo content has been gradually going down for a while now, quality-wise. hopefully they will change some things, and in a best case scenario, bring back something similar to naxx etc.
