Knowing that the most glorious arch-Liche, Kel'Thuzad, will be joining the nexus is worth it. If only for the confusion having two KTs will cause!
Amen.
Who will be the one true KT? IIRC Kel'Thuzad was always referred to as KT...no clue on Kael'Thas pre-HOTS, though. I actually was raiding Naxxramas when Wrath hit so I remember it, but didn't raid during BC for Kael'Thas. I remember people calling him Kael in WoW at times.

We're talking years of advantage for KT and I don't even need to specify who I mean right now

If KT doesn't get a li'l KT skin like Ragnaros did there is no justice
single target slow that does dmg scaling off ur passive. slow looks pretty significant and you can talent at 7 to reduce healing on target for 4 secs and lvl 20 give you cdr and another charge.
i cant find out what it's cd is though, that's pretty important, but yeah nice to have a warrior anti-support option
lol i decided to finally get my ai quests done on eu server and it queues me for like 6 minutes and gives me all bots on my team

Calling kaelthas "KT" is blasphemy. The true KT is kelthu-dad.

I really hope he doesn't. Hate those skins. I want a full on Egyptian themed Kel'Thuzad from the Luxoria setting, that would be cool.

primacy has been established, kel'thuzad is the true KT
Karl Jim is good. Scott's incessant inability to remember hero and ability names is either the best intentional gag or a great unintentional one. I lean toward the latter since he, like Jake, doesn't play the game much...but he does at least pay attention to his co-hosts and defer to them and nudge them in thoughtful directions.
I never knew Kael'Thas and Jaina were a thing in the past. Was this before the Arthas saga?

KaelThas felt attracted to her but you know, age differences and Jaina was focused on her studies.
That was after Jaina and Arthas left separate ways to become a Mage and a Paladin respectively.

I like calling Kael'Thas KT because he's a hip youngster who would like an acronym like that.
Kel'Thuzad is a proper aristocrat. Don't sully him with some shit like "KT". Kel'Thuzad better be a godlike addition to the game.

Isn't Kael'Thas pretty old in human terms, though? I mean whoever it was said above part of the reason it didn't work out for him with Jaina was his age difference was creepy.

other games don't matter in hots, it's not a 2ndary game to play and as such its own canon and timeline takes precedence.
yes they do, because if it was random ass heroes, nobody would care, like the countless other mobas that came out over the years

those vastly more popular mobas? Most of them are random ass to me.
I said the ones that came out in the last few years like HotS, not LoL/DOTA which are established. are you seriously saying that a big draw of HotS isnt the Blizzard heroes and people's connection to them?
Good lord... that's enough internet for tonight.

I'd hope so, Hots is a good game not because of the models it uses for its heroes. Of course the backstory matters for subsections of the playerbase based on what Blizzard games they played in the past but I'd like to believe it would be just as popular with original characters.
Saying they don't matter was wrong, they matter, but only in so much that they enhance Hots not take precedence over,

You're out in left field on this one IMO. I don't think most would even pick up the game without the tie-ins. They might stay for the gameplay compared to another MOBAs more convoluted style, but I'd be shocked if it wasn't the faces they know that gets the majority through the door.

Playing as Diablo is 100% of why I have played this game so much.

I think a lot of people actually would play the game, because come on... it's a blizzard game. Are you guys nuts?
That said, the crossover is not hindering it in the slightest.

Depends a lot since most of the Warcraft heroes are from before WoW , after Arthas became the Lich King.
Garrosh for example is the first WoW heroe from his era.
Edit: Actually there are a lot of WoW-but-not-WC3 heroes already in the game, so I'm not sure I understand what you meant

it shows 20 seconds in the spotlight. I get the feeling the non taunt heroic will be the go to actually because more useful at a low CD
