Tunnel Blaster might be replacing Unstable Ghoul

We got other Prelates in Rastakhan's Rumble that were represented properly. It's more that at the time Paladin already had Liadrin, Arthas, and Annoy-O while Shaman only had Morgl, so they gave the portrait to the class with less alt heroes. I hope they do the same with DH.

(Hasn't stopped them from adding a pre-order Mage portrait every year for the last three years, but whatever).

Hearthstone tends to generalize troll loa powers as shaman/witch doctor powers unless they are directly linked with shadow magic, in which case they are priest.

A detective does not fit in this theme. In WoW, Denathrious funneled all the anima of his kingdom to the Maw (Hell), while his peasants thougt there was an anima-drought. Only the high elite could use the anima (which is an life source)

Matter of taste, I liked the light-themed expansions for the colours and jokes in the art. 

The dark theme is always a good change of that format though. Wished they did dark themes in the winter.

True, but Sire Dentahrius and his sword Remornia were the only thing that was positive!

So, less gold for next expansion packs truly happening..

I hope they give it to Demon Hunter, because DH hasn't had a portrait since Aranna. It's not a perfect fit, but then also how the hell is Rastakhan a shaman?

I was expecting Pandaria or Iron Horde.

I only have a vague idea of what's going on in Shadowlands.

Out of all the things from Shadowlands that could make its way into Hearthstone this is honestly probably the best possible choice! Castle Nathria was a lot of fun and Sire Denathrius was a fan favorite so should be interesting to see what they do with it. I wonder which class will get Sire as their Hero Portrait my guesses would be Warrior(because he is mostly a melee character) Warlock(he created the dreadlords) or Priest(because shadow priest have vampiric themed abilities)

My understanding is that the Shadowlands themselves are pretty interesting, but poor storytelling and spending too much time in the Maw ruined it. If you want players to enjoy the game, you don't keep sending them back to the place designed specifically to be hateful. You should use it once or twice to convey the horror, then move on. Just imagine how much less people would like Halo: CE if it kept sending you through the Library, for example.

Anyway, there's plenty of good stuff for HS to use in the Shadowlands, especially as it isn't anchored to the gameplay and story issues WoW had.

The Witchwood started as a whodunnit expansion (Murder on the Gilneas Express was the dev name IIRC), so it makes sense that they'd still have that theme in their back pocket.

Same! But I got lucky once and finished a fire spell quest with Tess rogue.

I actually never realized the spell school damage quests relate to Mercenaries.

I always dread the moment when I get one of those - because it means either rerolling it to a 900XP quest (I wish they changed this behavior), or doing 3-4 custom games in Constructed with special spell damage decks.

Would love to see them out of the game but at least from now on I'll have a more efficient way to complete them. Thanks!

I guess the space expansion comes last then.

Also a weird choice seeing how Shadowlands wasn't exactly a well received WoW expansion, but I'M a sucker for dark gothic horror so this might tickle my special area.

Running out of time to submit!

Also a new Card-Type right (for example: Herocard, quest)? Maybe an extra resource like Anima?

Denathrius wields Remornia, maybe minions that turn in the weapons or something?

so early ?

The feeling when you dont play standard and you roll your win 5 games into the stormwind quest.. feelsbadman. great news

I really wanna see an upgrade to the progression system for BG this patch. its so damm Boring :(
