    There's currently a bug where only regular Thrall is updated to have Strength Totem, whereas all the other Shaman portraits still have Wrath of Air Totem.

    Or at least that's what I've been reading everywhere.

    ***NERD RANT INCOMING***

    In my opinion, this is a pretty interesting insight that different skins are considered independent from the base class. I assume then that every time something fundamental from the class changes, they have to go into the code and change it for Thrall, Morgl, King Rastakhan (which I still hold is the best Shaman alt), The Thunder King and Lady Vashj. I wonder if the 1000 win skins and the tavern pass skins operate as variations of the Thrall skin since they share the same entrance animation and frame (the bits on either side of the hero portrait).

    ???

    Seems like a thoroughly inefficient way of doing things. Essentially the more skins there'd be in the game, the more "classes" would be in the game to patch. What starts as just a jpeg with a few voicelines becomes way more of a hassle than it's worth. If they really implemented skins this way, and this bug really suggests that they did, then they fucked up big time.
