The New Hearthstone Hunter Hero Is Alleria Windrunner (Update: And Medivh For Mage)
It seems like it's been Hearthstone week at MMOBomb lately, and if you're not a fan of the game...
But if you are, and you play hunter, you'll soon have an alternative to Rexxar. Alleria Windrunner will be the alternate hero for the hunter class, and Blizzard's got a new video for her to go with the announcement. Like new warrior hero Magni Bronzebeard, Alleria will cost $9.99 and come with her own set of emotes and special card back.
Yesterday's patch notes hints at a new mage hero also being in the works. I'm not too well-versed in World of Warcraft lore, but the popular rumor based on the silhouette is that it's Medivh. Anyone else care to hazard a guess?
UPDATE: Yep, it's Medivh.
