Watching Blizzard: Literally drowning in Hearthstone cards

There have been so many card reveals and we aren't even to the halfway point yet. As I've been updating our card post instead of Matticus, I have become entirely too familiar with the upcoming lineup and I will probably be exhausted by all things Hearthstone by the time the Witchwood expansion actually launches. (We don't have an exact date yet, but my bet is early April.)

But you may enjoy the fruits of my labor with all of the card reveals in one place. Or you can skip it and just enjoy the surprise of (virtually) tearing open your packs on release day. Whenever that day may be.

Now let's get to the news.

All Hearthstone cards, all the time

• We've seen seven new Witchwood cards today, and if you want to check them out (along with my terribly insightful commentary), you can find our card list right here.
• I have to admit, I'm not bowled over by any of the latest reveals, but there are a lot of cards we haven't yet seen. The reveal schedule continues through April 1.

Boop!

• Azeroth will soon be under siege by its most dangerous enemy yet... the boop emote.
• And, no, I am not making this up. There is really a boop emote on the alpha.

It's finally here!

• Warcraft Chronicle volume 3 has arrived, and of course we have a (spoiler-free) review for you.
• And a note for everyone who's been keeping up with these dense tomes of lore: while volume 3 was supposedly the last volume, this one ends with a "to be continued." We'll be keeping our eyes peeled for info on volume 4.

Get rep grinding

• The World Quest bonus event has returned to World of Warcraft, making this a great week to work on your Broken Isles reputations. And as a bonus, this weekend it overlaps with the Darkmoon Faire, which lets you add an extra +10% to your reputation gains. So get out there and finish those Allied Race grinds or just work on your Paragon reputation.

A behind the scenes look at bringing new heroes to the Nexus

• The Heroes of the Storm team does an amazing job of bringing characters from other games into Heroes gameplay while retaining the feel of playing the original. Here's a look at how they do it.

Diablo 3 is on sale for those of you who may not own it

• My assumption is that if you'd ever wanted to play Diablo... you'd already be playing it. But if you do want to play Diablo and haven't yet, the game and expansion pack are on sale for half off.
• And if you were holding out for a Diablo 2 revamp, the Necromancer pack is on sale, too. That's sort of like playing Diablo 2, only with better graphics and new things to smash.

There's  new StarCraft patch and... something... something...

• Maybe something? Okay. You've got me. I don't play a lot of StarCraft these days, so I really have no idea what I'm talking about here. But there is a new bug fix patch which includes some nifty cosmetics celebrating the Nation Wars tournament.
• Or maybe not. I could be totally wrong. These patch notes may as well be written in a foreign language for me. (Which is why I usually shove the writing of them towards Alex.)

And that's all for today, my friends. Tomorrow we'll have more news, so check back then. This is Liz, signing out.
