Ragnaros is the third legendary card, and first old legendary, to get the Diamond treatment!
When Patch 20.2 drops, anyone who has collected the full set of Classic legendary minions will be able to unlock the Diamond Ragnaros card. No animation preview is available right now, but we're confident that post is going to strike us with some amazing visuals.
Hearthstone Patch 20.2 drops next week and contains large updates to Battlegrounds with the introduction of the Quilboar tribe.
Quote From Blizzard Diamond Ragnaros has been added to the Tavern! Diamond Ragnaros can be acquired by completing the Classic Legendary Collector 5/5 achievement (Collect all 36 Classic Legendary cards). Please note that players who have already completed and claimed this achievement must reclaim the achievement to obtain Diamond Ragnaros.
We’ve also added a new progression achievement, Tavern Regular, which tracks total reward track levels earned on your account across all reward tracks from each expansion. Completing each tier of this achievement will reward a choice from 1 of 10 new Hero skins, featuring upgraded armor!

Wow! Can't wait to get this.
Hmm, I guess that also means having to craft Gelbin and ETC? And I've disenchanted Ysera, so there is also that. So not anytime soon, but it's an interesting initiative for veteran players and dedicated collectors.
Gelbin and ETC are not necesary. You may check via achievements
count the legendaries that you are missing from the achievement page. I think those 2 dont count since you cant get them from the packs.
Cool, free one for me!
I've been spending all my gold on Classic packs just to get the whole collection, which might mean I won't have enough for when the mini-set launches. Definitely means I'm missing out on hero skins.
Now I have an actual reason to do this. I've had all of them except Ragnaros the Firelord and Sylvanas Windrunner for several packs, but the damn game just doesn't want to give me one of those last two legendaries.
Ragnaros the Firelord & Sylvanas Windrunner
It is absolutely amazing to me how Blizz likes to treat their longtime players so badly. If a person has collected all Classsic legendaries then they should get the Diamond Ragnaros. They should not have to "do it again". Its ridiculous. Just for ONE diamond card!!! Seriously?
Didnt they mean that you just had to go and reclaim the achievement, and not redo it all?
OK, I read it correctly this time. LOL. You are correct
I think this is correct. I could DE all Classic Legendaries today and likely still get it on patch day because the game says I've completed that achievement in the log.
I've had all the cards at one time or another but DE the useless ones. I doubt it remembers I had them and I'm certainly not crafting them again!
Well, I have all legendaries from Classic plus golden Rag. So that means if I reclaim Diamond Rag, thus,the golden is a spare one. That’s free 3200 dust?
Rag isn't being nerfed, he's just getting another level of cosmetic upgrade. So likely DE values will be normal: 400 dust for regular legendary, 1600 dust for golden copies.
One can only dream
Sick! Even if he's not playable in this wild's meta, it was only making sense to make this Iconic card diamond,regardless!
Too bad Ragnaros is unplayable in today's wild meta
He pops up now and then in big priest, that's still a solid deck.
Whelp, time to craft Millhouse Manastorm, Lorewalker Cho and Nat Pagle 🤣
You mean you don't already own these powerhouse cards?!?! You must be a Bronze player. :
