I was going to predict the Warlock legendary, but then I remembered it was revealed.

lol naaah - he's very bound up in mage lore. Wouldn't fit as a lock, unfortunately. I know they've done some stretches, like having Vol'jin show up as a priest legendary, but honestly, there's nothing really demonic or shadow-magicky about Kael, except his temporary allegiance with Kil'jaeden...right?
It sucks too, because he'd make an excellent candidate for a hero, with tons of glib dialogue and such, but we have 3 mage heroes already. I mean, I'd rather have him there than not at all, and not wasted as just a legendary card. Although I think they should just go ahead and allow existing heroes to also be legendary cards and vice versa. Already happened with Medivh and (sorta) Rag.
Yeah, it's really time for those two to get one more each. Ideal candidates would be Wilfrid Fizzlebang (I know he's a card, who cares) or Kanrethad Ebonlocke for Warlock, and some Tauren for Druid. I'm not familiar enough with Tauren characters to know who the chief druids are there.
Blood elves all run on fel energy anyway and Kael'thas in particular had demonic powers. He's like fire mage/warlock.
Scroll down here, and check out the list of all released cards.

Why do Priests always get their shit revealed last...?
Don't Blood Elves run on standard magic? They're just addicted. They're kind of like the Nightborne, take 1. Warlocks are really about connections to demons, the Twisting Nether, shadow magic, etc. (I know, we're bordering on semantics territory here, haha). Kael definitely makes use of the Arcane a whole bunch, though.

The Tauren you are looking for is Hamuul Runetotem and I'd love to see him repped in Hearthstone hes such a good character. He was the one who almost died from being burned to death by the Druids of the Flame during the Firelands questline.
Edit: I do wish we'd see more of the horde races represented. Slyvannas Hunter, Voljin Shaman, Carine or Baine Warrior, ect.
Yeah, duh. Everyone keeps saying Bonestorm and I got it stuck in my head.

Surprised you were able to pull it off from 1-health. He draw so poorly during his last rounds though. Except for the Fire Elemental.
I need my Hamuul Runetotem, man. This game needs more tauren. Cairne/Baine are like the only named ones in the game.

They messed up Kael'thas so much in WoW that I could easily see them making him a Warlock despite never actually being one.
Hamuul would be a great druid hero. I'd love Thisalee but too many elves as is.
Let's get Falstad in here while we're at it.

Got my second 12 wins victory in arena before that, I got an 11 run were I screwed up in the last 2 matches, but here I was able to win most of my matches thanks to meteor, having 2 on your deck really do wonders, and when babling book or cabalist tome give you the third one, your opponent doesn't have much to do
I haven't played arena in an entire year, yet in this week I learned that spikeridged steed and meteor are super busted cards.

Paladin and Mage in general are top choices. If only the game offered me them I'd love to practice.

There was a new Warrior card reviled;
Not 100% sure on the translation just yet.
When you play a minion, deal 1 Damage to it.

I think that translation might be incorrect but I'm not sure. I'm also seeing "After you play a minion, deal 1 damage to it."
Waiting on something official at this point.

Seems like a damn good card for Wild, especially in regards to Patron Warrior. Then again I'm not sure it's necessarily even needed and since it's "play" and not "summon" it's fairly limited in that regard too.
Pretty nice with Acolyte of Pain though.

Dear diary -- 1 out of 14 consecutive arena runs with Mage offered. Warrior + shaman have been my options in 3 out of 4 arena runs in a row.
My most recent arena pack gave me an Un'Goro legendary. I have 4/23 Un'Goro legendaries, and it was a dupe.
I suppose there's no chance of the Warrior quest getting nerfed, is there? It's hard to resist just dusting it.

I was coming to post something similar as above. My previous best was 8-3. But got to 11-2 tonight, but then got wrecked by the final guy...
This is only my 13th Arena after coming back after about a 6 month break, so 12 Wins may happen soon. My best 6 months ago was 6-3, so I am either getting better, or running into loads of totally new players due to the current promotion.
Also, I have grown to love tracking stats

That card seems pretty good.
Devils air egg going to see more play with that plus pretorax

Finally, an indisputably good card.
You dare question the Bonemare? It will feast on your marrow.

Bonemare is a great arena card, but as a 7-drop in constructed? I'm skeptical. It might get play, but I'm unconvinced.
That goes for every 1-drop. But you can coin this out with a possessed villager on turn 1 and the board will be yours for the foreseeable future.

The card looks okay but... honestly I don't think it's that good and it might not see play based on the current cards we know.
I'll walk that back a little. There is still the devilsaur egg. BUT, I'm still doubtful.
So here is the deal. It's not a 3/3 for 1 mana. It's not a 3/3 at all. It's more like a 2/2 because you're probably removing 1/1 from your board to play this thing. It's not better than flame imp.
I think that the double adapt card is better than this and that doesn't see play.

Well I've seen enough to put another $50 down for packs. I think the free adventure stuff put me over the edge. Some of the new mechanics look great so far.

this is a good card since they're really pushing the "divine shield" mechaninc in this new set.

I could see including one just to fish Tirion out.
Definitely a powerful effect if Paladin continues to get powerful Divine Shield minions though.
