It's time to gear up for the new season in Warcraft Rumble! Get ready to experience new leaders, cosmetics, PvP enchantments, and more.

  • Emperor Thaurissan is the new playable Leader in the game, available via the Guild Warchest, PvP, or Store offers.
  • New cosmetics are being added to the game, including the Judgment Tower Skin and exclusive Gnomelia Plane Burning Emote.
  • The game introduces Enchants, which allow players to take advantage of unique anomalies in PvP.
  • PvP maps get a twist - they will now be randomized and Enchants will replace the 'Map' tile.

Emperor Thaurissan, the fiery leader from Blackrock Depths, is the highlight of Warcraft Rumble Season 3. His special abilities include Lava Spike, a powerful ranged elemental attack, and Fiery Weapon, which allows allies to burn when dealing Physical damage.

An exciting new game mechanic, Enchants, has been added. These can dramatically change how PvP matches unfold, as they introduce unique effects like Towers causing damage to their owner's Barracks when destroyed or Leaders leveling up each time they are played. Primary maps for PvP matches will no longer remain the same, but instead will be randomized, giving us new challenges with every game.

Emperor Thaurissan won't be available in the G.R.I.D until Season 4, but don't worry; you can add him to your collection of Minis through the Guild Warchest, PvP, or three Store offers—one at season start, one mid-season, and another at the end of the season.
