During the announcement of Kobolds and Catacombs, the first few cards of the expansion were revealed.
Hearthstone’s newest expansion will arrive in the game next week, with over 120 cards available.
Of all the classes to get the game’s first legendary weapon, no one would have thought it would be Priest. But it is, and Priests can now play Dragon Soul. The three mana weapon can’t actually attack—instead it summons a 5/5 Dragon when three spells are cast in a single turn.
Gather Your Party shows off the set’s new mechanic, Recruit. Recruit allows you to pluck a minion from your deck, a la Barnes. At six mana, that mechanic comes at a high price.
Hunter gets a new slow spell, Crushing Walls. It destroys your opponent’s left and right-most minions—so if this card gets popular, board positioning will become super important if you run into Hunter. No one wants to see their massive threats get taken out because they put them in a careless spot.
More cards will be revealed later today during the Hearthstone panel at BlizzCon.
