  • Warrior getting legendary weapons 2 expansions in a row?

  • So hyped.  No wonder all the streamers' minds were blown.  I am a believer now...

  • okay this is all cool but here's my one bitch:

    ANOTHER ALT SHAMAN HERO?

    C'mon give Rogue some another hero, Maiev is BORING.

    or at least give her a patch where she has some dialogue with some cards,minions and other heroes.

    • Exactly. Shamen has got many awesome Portraits already. 
      This Let’s me really think about not buying the big bundle

  • So they changed the Priest cards because the felt they were limited with their design space, yet Edwin VanCleef remains unnerfed -_-

  • I am not able to watch the replay for quite some time, can someone possibly explain what "Spell Locked" means in the Year of the Phoenix Roadmap? Thank you!

    • Not said anywhere but, i think, like to be announced. 

    • They not mention about them but I assume they might be some event/features that they don't want reveal right now.

      • Thank you for the quick reply!

  • Question about Ranked rewards update:

    These rewards stack now? If you play from Bronze 5 all the way to the Legend it will give you all the rewards for each milestone?

    • It only makes sense this way, yes . However, getting a couple of rare-s, 4 packs and a random epic at rank 5 , I would not say it is definitely better than an epic-of-your-choice. With the added bonus of duplicate protection, it might be better though. 

    • I think so yes, otherwise the rewards would be worse then what they are now xd

  • AnonymousUser's Avatar

    Amazing, of course, but how come they didn't mention the unnerfs?

    Edit: Whoops, never mind, they're here!

  • Another shaman hero? is that 5 now? Thrall, Morgl, Her, Rastakhan, Lei shen. so yeah 5 now unless I missed someone

  • So Warcraft now has Phyrexians.

  • MCTECH ROT IN HELL! Wait I play Wild aswell.. well poop. 

  • Ok now, can we panic about no songs?

  • NOT LEEROY! :(

  • Flux you missed the 8 mana new butterhead

    :P

  • Calling it now expac 3 is finally Darkmoon Faire. The color scheme looks similar the trees are the woods around it, and the nails are from shoddy faire construction. Also comparing the teaser image to the faire it looks almost the exact same as the entrance to the faire's gate.
