I'd prefer it to be a WoW character like Garona Halforcen, or obviously Vanessa Vancleef, and not an original character. But it's glad to know they are up to something, Rogue is the only class with no alternate portraits so far other than Maiev and the 1000-win.
For example, if you have a Star Bonus of 5x and you win a game, you’ll get five Stars instead of one. If your winning game is a part of a win streak, you’ll get double that: 10 Stars! Upon hitting each ranked floor in your climb, your Star Bonus will be reduced by one.
So what happens when you lose is, you lose your winstreak but retain the star bonus until you hit a ranked floor it will be reduced by one.
I saw an interview with Dean Ayala somewhere and he is completely open to the idea and possibility of adding new classes if the feedback is positive with Demon Hunter.
And as the others have pointed out, Demon Hunter is a class in WoW.
So if he dies, he will be idle and take up board space? That's the only disadvantage I can think of. I absolutely love the card and the concept, 5 mana and playable with Valeera the Hollow in Wild.
I first heard about it on a Hearthstone podcast I was listening to as they were talking about the Twitch drops. However, I have tried to find it in Twitch's T&C and I cannot find it anywhere. Some people on reddit tested it and found it to be true by seeing if the viewer was lost when a stream was muted. Then there are others saying that's not the case *shrug*.
I am not sure it would be something Twitch would advertise anyway. It could also be down to Chrome and nothing to do with Twitch.
I'll go with just turning the volume down if I'm not actively watching it just in case. I usually watch all the EU / NA games I can anyway.
I use Chrome, been watching all the streams so far ~6 hours per day by average. I just left my PC on and I MUTED the stream. I watched a few games, though, and so far I have received 4 packs.
Will buy it with gold, and complete it on both Normal and Heroic because the cardbacks are rad. I also suspect that they might be an extra reward to be announced with the last chapter. Can't wait to play it!
There's a new Uldum-themed board. Is there any official information on this?
Also a couple of bugs that I found with the image of a golden Titanic Lackey half missing, with the upper half being a sky, and Mad Bomber animation slightly bugged.

Basic - Goldshire Footman. :D
Common - Silver Hand Regent. Everyone can be paladin for a day! And the card art is amazing.
Rare - Zandalari Templar. I like the golden animation
Epic - Fal'dorei Strider. Best Rogue card ever printed to me!
Legendary - Patches the Pirate because he is so cool! Too bad he is longer in charge ;(
It's Jaina Proudmoore's mirror image from the Mirror Image spell
There is also a winstreak system (2x stars * your current star multiplier)

^ I have yet to experience the gold bug, but I have had the rest of that. The game just has to be buggy after every couple patches :(
Oh, thanks for bringing this up! Now I might consider buying the old packs instead until I get a legendary
I want to play something with Hunter, anything just because of the Sylvanas portrait! ;_; Must buyyy
This has the potential to be a broken card
It fills your board every turn, I love the concept. Interesting card, and people will definitely make a weird deck out of this somehow
Got the quest for today but cannot reroll. Anyone else has this problem?

Valeera one is so unlore-friendly but I like it and the Garrosh one the most.
To me it was Dungeon Run. That thing took me almost a year to beat, so when I finally beat it, it felt so rewarding.
But it was difficult and unfair, yes.
Step 1: Pick Reno Jackson as a starter
Step 2: Draw both Lei Flamepaw and The Gatling Wand
Step 3: Survive and cast as many spells as you can
Step 4: Lei Flamepaw + The Gatling Wand when you can OTK him [200+ damage or whatever it takes]
Worked for me.
Huge improvement, and this is not just a dream! Good job, Blizzard.

This is how it looks like in case anyone wants to see. I think it has a unique soundtrack playing too.

Did you guys spot anything else after the patch?
