Rise of Shadows - The Name of the New Expansion Has Been Leaked by IGN
Fantastic job IGN! 10/10, masterpiece.
Hearthstone Rise of Shadows has had its name leaked by a cached video page uploaded by IGN. Although we can't watch the video, we do know it's just over 3 minutes in length and Possessed Villager is displayed in the thumbnail. We've also got a logo leak for the set thanks to Phonandroid, a french mobile website.
Thanks to reddit users trauthor and ToxicAdamm for the tip!
Yeah, that would be cool.
Stretching out your hype videos for over two weeks... it's a dangerous game. ;)
Is there anything that isn't being leaked? At this rate we will know the names of the expansions next year and all their legendaries by the end of the week, before even Blizzard does.
Where is the leak? This character is from an old Blizzard clip - Hearth and Home.

If the shadow keyword means spawn a second copy of something, why do I think we're going back down the road of aggro/flood the board and OTK decks? And it better not be a battlecry, or else Shudderwalk....
it's the wildcard factor :^)
IGN is dangerous and Blizzard likes bad boys UwU
Have you ever read the community comments on anything Hearthstone related and then said to yourself
"I would have been better off not reading them"
But then you think, "I could make this better by replying to saltiest comments with snark". It's good to set goals!
Aren't IGN the guys who complained Resident Evil 2 was too short because they didn't notice you could play Claire's part of the story? What a group of doofuses.

I'm starting to think more expansion titles have been leaked, than offically released by blizzard :| They really don't seem to be making any changes to prevent this either.
At this point I would certainly not rule out that they do it intentionally to build hype
You could argue that it is silly to keep the title of the next expansion a secret in the first place. Personally I have never felt any particular excitement at hearing a title, especially not a generic fantasy title like "Rise of Shadows".
Bet the new card effect is going to be 'Shadow'. Maybe creates a copy with same stats but dies when the main minion dies. They hinted at a twin effect recently.
Ehh do you mind a shadow leroy + faceless for 18 damage in the face?
close. It was the mechanic of Extra Arms mecha that was reused. just like shamans Unstable Evolution was before echo .
IGN at its best as per usual
7.8/10 too much leaking
sure am glad that was spoiled on the front page >.<
"Leaked"
