During datamining today we discovered 4 new heroes added to Hearthstone and they're all going to be available in bundles!
- Contents of the bundles are unknown at this time.
- There is a mega-bundle that contains all the new portraits. Unsure if there are additional contents.
Here are each of the new heroes and how they can be obtained (as far as we know).
Guan Yu Uther
A peerless champion will always fight for what he believes in. After watching him, you might believe it too!
Obtained by purchasing the Guan Yu Uther Bundle or the Three Kingdoms Bundle.
Lü Bu Garrosh
No matter how long the war, he still hungers for glory on the battlefield. You could say he has a very big appetite.
Obtained by purchasing the Three Kingdoms Mini Bundle or the Three Kingdoms Bundle.
Diao Chan Valeera
Even a smile can be a weapon if it's wielded properly. Not to mention those fans
Obtained by purchasing the Three Kingdoms Mini Bundle or the Three Kingdoms Bundle.
Zhuge Liang Anduin
This esteemed advisor knows that the perfect strategy is having enemies slightly less smart than him.
Obtained by purchasing the Zhuge Liang Anduin Bundle or the Three Kingdoms Bundle.
Comments
I freaking love Dynasty Warriors, I played it a lot many years ago (mainly DW5, the costumes there are more iconic than any other version).
I'm a little disappointed that there are only 4 hero portraits though. There are a lot more interesting characters from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story that could be applied to Hearthstone heroes like Cao Cao and Sima Yi (both for Warlock, maybe?), Gan Ning (DH?), Zhou Yu, Zhao Yun, etc.
Anyway, I love the Lu Bu Garrosh skin, it looks so badass. And I'm simping HARD for that Diao Chan Valeera portrait. I might get those two, assuming we'll be allowed to choose.
Zhuge Liang Anduin Is my favorite
Good things come from China every so often! That Valeera portrait, *mwah*, chef's kiss.
Are you sure these bundles are going to be available for us? Aren't these just in the international client for whatever reason like that Arcane Stones to Runestones pop-up window? Maybe they just didn't bother removing? Pls don't downvote for asking, just curious.
You can see them in-game right now. If you go to the portraits tab in the collection, they're all visible along with SI:7 Anduin.
Upvoted for asking.
I'm sure they are made to please the Chinese audience, but they have English voicelines so I doubt they'll only be available in China. Plus, I'm not sure what Blizzard would gain from not allowing the rest of the world to give them money for the skins.
That's fair, thank you.
The Uther one is amazing! Especially the full art. Too bad it doesn't show the huge jade dragon behind him lol
Would have been amazing for my Jade Paladin deck!
Man, this really makes me want to go back and get my Dynasty Warriors on! Those were some good times...
Some of my favorite games. I think 2, 4 and 5 were my most played. I think 5 I even had an expansion.
Lu Bu was a monster to fight with new characters. Definitely buying the Garash version just for that memory.
Sad my guy isn't here. He had the 2 claws! I wish my ps2 didn't get stolen!
It's easy. I see Dynasty Warriors, I upvote.
Garrosh looks awesome, but I agree with other players. There are many other characters we could get instead of the usual. We have Taoshi for rogue skin, The spirits kings (Zian, Meng, Qiang and Subetai) for warrior skins, Norushen for priest or paladin skin, etc. Blizzard should consider use more warcraft lore in the next HS skins :(
As the resident Hearthstone Loremaster, I wholeheartedly agree, lol.
Better hope that they have unique voice lines this time.
The old skins which do not had new voicelines have them updated
They have new voicelines, you can already right click them in the gallary. I also think that new voicelines|no new animations will be the norm for reused characters, that's atleast how Blizzard handled them recently.
Valeera looks good, but I'd still like a new Rogue hero portrait who wasn't just Valeera
I love valeera but i'd like to see new characters too
