Question for any Blizzard guys lurking: Are the Horsemen tokens summoned randomly, or sequentially?

Do they always summon in the exact 1, 2, 3, 4 order, or is it coded like the shaman hero power, where it's a random token that you currently don't have on the table?

This actually makes a difference in a strategy I have planned, where you return 3 of the tokens to your hand as you summon them, so you can play 3 of them, hero power, and the game ends. If they are summoned sequentially, this strategy is basically impossible.

    They work like Shaman totems. They're random, but if you have one of them on the board already and you hero power, you won't get the same one.

    Follow-up question that I assume I know the answer to:

    The video shows 4 unique tokens. You need all 4 of these tokens to win right? Meaning, duplicate copies of a token wont count towards the goal?

    Yeah, you need all 4 unique tokens. Duplicates won't count.

    i wonder if an immune hero(e.g. with Mal'Ganis)could be destroyed by the horsemen

    It could be destroyed. Immunity only prevents damage taken and targeting.

    Trick question, what if your opponent has an ice block secret in play or is immune via other ways? Does this prevent the destroy effect?

    No, it does not prevent it.

    does iceblock counter the instakill?

    It does not stop it.

    Will we be able to ensure paladin otk's with bounce cards? Eg. if we bounce the first 3 horsemen somehow, and then play them, then hero power, will that trigger the otk? A lot of people are asking this or something similar but I can't find an answer anywhere

    Yes, you can use bounce. Once all of the horsemen are on the board the effect will trigger if you are Uther of the Ebon Blade. You do not have to hero power either, you can play all 4 from your hand if you collect them all.
