Khadgar was sold for real money, unlike Tyrande, so if he will ever return, he will cost real money (otherwise players would stop buying cosmetics for real money and wait until they are available for gold).
Also, from February 26th 2020 to March 4th 2020, Khadgar returned to the store in Patch 16.4.0.42174, available for purchase by all players across all platforms, for $9.99, so you can expect hero skins cost 1000 gold (if they were given out for free before) or $10 a piece
Probably just for Arena, never saw play before even when there were a lot of tokens. Just too unreliable, and lets be honest. It's battlecry is always "Destroy this minion, and deal 1 damage to your hero" when you play it. (Or it's 2 mana Flame Imp. Cuz never lucky xD)
I mean, they did already try tri-class cards with the Mean Streets gangs, but the approach was different. It would be interesting to see how they would turn out if they actually tried to find common ground between three classes, instead of inventing a new gimmick for them to share.
After having failed to get Iksar's and Celestalon's attention multiple times outside of the Q&As, I got lucky tonight. My cat woke me up at 3 a.m. because the poor thing was starving and that was exactly the time when Iksar had this week's Q&A up and running. Still no answer to still the same question:
Can we have an option to play with purchased alternative Hero skins and show off 1.000+ class wins at the same time? My suggestion would be to follow the ladder system using the Hero Power borders, so 500 wins = golden Hero Power border, 1.000 wins = platinum, 2.000 = diamond, 5.000 = wooden.
I'm grasping for straws here, but the fact that I've never gotten a response in what feels like close to 10 occasions I've posted the question plus the announcement of a new cosmetic might mean they're actually doing this. Fingers crossed!
On the subject of the 'Doom in the tomb' event, I think the time frame of that event was perfect. 1 month is just about a good time frame for new decks to adapt, evolve and counter others, and not feel like its just a passing thought. A couple of weeks is fine I guess, but its kinda a little too short someone who plays around 1-2 hours a day to experience the whole deal.
Hopefully in the next Q&A someone can ask why the reveal schedule for Barrens is condensed to 1 week instead of the usual 2-3 weeks. Waiting for new cards to come out used to be a pleasant experience; I'd take a few minutes to think of what the card can do and then wait with baited breath for the next reveal. Now it almost seem like we're pushing so many hamburgers all at once that each hamburger is rendered tasteless as a result.
Circle of Healing died so we can have this. Yay. Seriously, this only seems useful as a surprise lethal in an Auchenai Soulpriest world or in a spell synergy deck, so weirdly this might be a tiny bit better in Wild than Standard, but pretty unimpressive overall. And useless in Arena.
why is kripp always on these, he doesn't play standard or wild and hasn't in ages... get a new person please
He still is one of most popular Hearthstone players despite not playing Standard much. Also first games are often fun to see meme and weird stuff not OP decks and Kripp is good for this. I am glad he is not in Reveal stream but I am totally ok with him being in Theorycrafting.
Looking at how dominant dhunters (blessing of pig) were in that brawl, I'm surprised anyone could enjoy it. I racked up like 14 wins, with only 1-2 losses in between.
To an extent I agree with others that this feels a little rushed. The timing of this expansion just seems off overall for me. Yes, it’ll be a little over 4 months since Darkmoon released, but because that came out earlier than expected this one is also earlier than the usual first expansion and rotation (by only a week or two now with the one week delay on release).
Now, I’m pretty sure Dean said in a Q&A when asked if this expansion would be out in March he said yes, if it was ready. When he said that, I don’t think we the public knew about the Core set yet. But he of course would have! Meaning he was aware of the large task ahead of that team to impliment some major changes. So not only are they likely putting the final touches on the new cards, debugging, etc, they are likeky going through even more stuff to endure the Core set launch, and Classic mode launch all go off flawlessly (or at least with minimal issues).
Remember, this is their largest patch to date (I think they said that). So there are likely a lot of things to test before they ship the patch.
Yes riot is doing better with it's "tavern brawl" but it was a feature added upon from hearthstones tavern brawl, and thats the nature of feature copying.
The new guy will improve on the original.
Given tavern brawls arent rewarding classic packs soon, they may well give packs of the phoenix instead (thats my guess) which may get people playing it again.
I played a lot of tavern brawl as a casual player and I dont play it much now , I think it's still ok for it to be a fun addition for new players to mix up the game a bit and earn a small card bonus for your collection.
I'm not phazed that they arent spending any time making new brawls, given theres duels and other content like champions coming.
I hope they drop patch 20.0 on the Tuesday before instead of the usual Thur (I think - it could drop on Tue now that I am thinking about it - same day as the final reveal stream). This is such a large patch I would hope the extra time will help them to be able to make sure the launch of Barrens itself goes well.
As much as I am Blizz fanboy, their patch issues of late suggests they may need a few extra days of the patch in the wild before Barrens goes live.
Also, has there been an news/info/price/purchase date of the new Battlepass?
After looking back at the evidence, I think it's much more open to interpretation than I initially remembered. This basically just confirms that they'll eventually add a multiplayer (possibly even 2v2?) Lab of Legends, but that could be in this next update or sometime far in the future. My interpretation is that the solo-player variant released first so that they could smooth out the systems and fix the balance before the multiplayer version (like how the 2vAI United Front came before the 2v2 version). I think that they'll likely rebalance the items, passives, and card offerings because some things work versus AI but are toxic against players (Like Katarina).

Of course the Barrens cinematic flopped. We want the tunes and the grooves, and the Barrens one ain't had no grooves nor no tunes.

He still is one of most popular Hearthstone players despite not playing Standard much.
Also first games are often fun to see meme and weird stuff not OP decks and Kripp is good for this.
I am glad he is not in Reveal stream but I am totally ok with him being in Theorycrafting.

Riot Reveals Dates for Upcoming Runeterra Events With an Updated Calendar
Okay, I finally found the quote, it was actually in the article about the roadmap that they posted on their website. It reads:
"Legends Labs can be either single-player (think Journey to the Peak from Patch 1.11) or multiplayer"
After looking back at the evidence, I think it's much more open to interpretation than I initially remembered. This basically just confirms that they'll eventually add a multiplayer (possibly even 2v2?) Lab of Legends, but that could be in this next update or sometime far in the future.
