may be they are not referring to the team specifically, but the rise of the evilness as a whole.
Someone here in the thread mentioned this might be the reveal of some evil things, then at the second the reveal of heroes and then the third expansion the clash between them and I think it is a natural way to making that overarching story between expansion, so this makes sense.
Well considering IGN has a video ready to go surely it's going to be announced today, probably at the top of the hour?
Outside of the occasional special announcement, they nearly always announce stuff at 1pm EST. Can't wait!
Hearthstonetopdecks seems to have everything about the new expansion.

Each villain will be tied to a specific class with the other classes having a hero tied to them instead.
Also here's IGN's video of some cards in action. https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/03/14/hearthstone-see-new-rise-of-shadows-cards-in-action

Rafaam's ability is a call back to the League of Explorers set, which had a card with the same effect (you just had to jump through a few hoops to trigger it). It was fun and very good in control matchups, but never broken. There are a lot of garbage legendaries. If you're in fatigue, Chef Nomi is better.
chef nomi is good for rogue. very playable. Actually I think there will be decks built around him with shadowsteps and unstable element.
Rogue loses a lot of cards to rotation so hard to tell how good rogue will be right now. Like Elven Minstrel is pretty good with this but you won't have him anymore.

Wonder if it'd be overkill in Myracle Rogue? Seems like a better Faldorei Strider in some situations. I'd often drop that after Myra's UE to just get a bunch of stats on board to finish.
Launch date is April 9th BTW.
Pre-order is a bit pricey for Canadians. Doing the same thing as Boomsday IIRC.
Fair point about the legendaries. Most of the new cards seem quite powerful so far, but fun.
Yup. Going to be a great addition. DassoBrother This mitigates the draw, but increases fatigue, so seems very specific in its use.
Yessss! Really excited about Rafaam being back, he's one of the coolest villains in Hearthstone :D
And his effect is so cool!

Did I read this right: You can preorder both the 50 and 80 options?
yeah this is the same as the Boomsday project preorders, now the thing is if you have enough money for both lol.
I don't :(
I never liked or used third-party utilities other than a pure win/loss opponent tracker, nothing in game. Some improvements that I think could be added from Arena, that I learned I enjoyed once I saw them:
* You should be able to reorder your hand.
* Your opponent shouldn't be able to see which card you hover over / play, and all cards should come from the same place. This means no staring at a sliver of the screen trying to analyze which card is what, and no deck tracker advantage because you have a program that does it.
* If a card is revealed to the opponent, it should stay revealed.
Nice; and I have no idea why am asking so many obvious questions today. Hype has burned my brain.
I might get the 80 pre-order. I think I might've done both for Boomsday but that was pretty unnecessary. I should have way more dust than usual come rotation too. I'll probably buy the adventure with cash too but aside from that I'm not really excited about anything until Mario Maker 2 so it doesn't seem too excessive.
the point of even using Elyse back in the day was that it added to 2 cards to the deck, dealying the fatigue counter, the golden monkey was nice, but it wasn't the main focus, this doesn't have the same idea.
but wait, there's more:
I LOVE that... i want them to explore more from the keywords they have used in the past
That too, for sure. I love it, embrace the history of Hearthstone and bring back the best. Right up my alley so far.
Seems like people are getting random legendaries from past expansions when they pre-purchase which I'm 99% sure is not intended. Might be worth doing before they fix it.
Edit: And the shop is closed already.

Yes, this is what I thought. I can't see this being useful beyond the meme decks I love to play, and even then you can't play because there is no card draw.
They did that with boomsday. I thought it was a good deal. I think that time I got that and 2x 60 pack bundles because I never do my quests and I like having cards to play any deck I want.
imagine making millions and millions of dollars from a game and never once upgrading the client in any meaningful way in over five years
It was definitely bugged to hell. Someone got one of Wardruid Loti's forms, another person got a Nefarian with 0 attack and 200 health that I assume is from the old adventure.
Kalecos is a pretty sick legendary. I cant believe they printed that and made it a Mage card to boot.
My biggest hope for the expansion, like all expansions, is for lots of splashy giant cards and little to no removal/board clears! I'm going to miss Lynessa Sunsorrow so much :(
As a Warlock, there is always a certain point in a match where your cards are relatively 'meh'. You don't need Mortal Coils on turn 13 or your card draw or some removal against a Control deck. Being able to transform your crap into some very strong cards could be very much worth it, especially in Warlock.
You just want the game to end when the first splashy minion comes down?
I think it almost goes without saying that one of the Twinspell cards is going to be broken as hell.
I'd infinitely rather that than splashy minion comes down and then immediately removed so nothing cool happens
I have to agree that there might be too many minion removal tools right now, most minions just never survives a turn, hopefully minions can stick a bit more after rotation IF the minions are NOT malygos type of danger, those should scale back as well.
both i beleve. Lazul for sure, cadback not so sure
The legdnary is later (that bug doesn't count)
