Hearthstone‘s subsequent enlargement is placing on its finest faux-Jamaican accent for an enormous blue throwdown. Launching in December and unveiled at BlizzCon right now, Rastakhan’s Rumble tells the story (by means of the act of card-battling) of a once-in-a-generation tribal contest. Trolls from round Azeroth are assembling to beat one another black and (extra) blue to be able to impress the Loa spirits and King Rastakhan in an enormous area rumble. It’ll additionally characteristic its personal new solo marketing campaign mode. Check out the cheerful musical trailer beneath – a staple for brand spanking new Hearthstone bulletins.
There are 9 Troll groups concerned on this occasion, one representing every class within the new Rumble Run solo mode. No people, elves, orcs and goblins within the hero slot this time – it’s massive tusks or go house. Many of the brand new Troll-themed playing cards lean in to the pageantry of the sector rumble theme, too. One new key phrase mechanic is Overkill, which they confirmed on a 4/Four hero weapon. Overkill permits you to assault once more in case you do extra harm than is important to kill an enemy, as much as an additional 3 times. This pairs properly with the Sharkfin Fan beneath, particularly in case you like pirate spam.
The Loas – highly effective guardian spirits of Trollkind – are represented in among the rarer playing cards on this new enlargement. The Paladin Loa, Shirvallah The Tiger, is a legendary minion that prices a preposterous 25 mana to forged, though that quantity goes down with each mana spent on spells. While that does mitigate the extreme worth, it strikes me as maybe extra of a mid/late game flourish card than one thing you’ll be utilizing on the common, particularly in case you draw the tiger early. Then once more, I’m not a daily Hearthstone participant, so maybe higher gamers can determine it out.
The Rastakhan’s Rumble enlargement launches on December 4th, and you may learn extra on its official page here. Hearthstone is free to play.
