Hearthstone's March of the Lich King Features WoWTCG Art - See New Card Origins

Updated 3 years, 1 month ago by

We're taking a look at WoWTCG art that has made its way into Hearthstone in the March of the Lich King expansion, which brought Death Knights into the game.

Hearthstone's March of the Lich King Features WoWTCG Art - See New Card Origins

Hearthstone's March of the Lich King which brought the Death Knight class to the game also did us a solid and brought back some of World of Warcraft's Trading Card Game art to Hearthstone. When Hearthstone first came out, the vast majority of art in the game came from the TCG, but as time went on, Hearthstone gained its own identity and received brand new art for most of its cards, rarely bringing back the classic pieces.

Blizzard has decided to bring back some original card art though this time around, and some of it will be recolored to fit the rune themes on Death Knights according to Celestalon.

Quote From Celestalon

Yep! There are several TCG art pieces in the expansion. In a couple cases, we tweaked them to fit gameplay (like Obliterate here getting a red color adjustment to fit as a blood-runed physical ability).


The Old Becomes New Again

Let's see the origins of some of the art featured in March of the Lich King. Please note that cards below may be from March of the Lich King, Path of Arthas, or Death Knight's 2022 Core Set.
