Vol'jin has always been blue, so I'm not sure where you're going with that.
As for the pokemon naysayer on the last page; read your location a little more clearly. Blizzard has always made light of other games/genres/anything. That does not equal ripoff in any way, shape, or form.
Loving the model, by the way.

Still bland gems for legendary. I really hoped it would gain nice effects instead of just a straight stat boost.
The other guy is half-right. Jungle trolls are almost always blue-ish, but they've got fur. Sort of a short peachfuzz type of fur. It's the forest trolls that are mossy. Problem is I think they made him ... too blue. There's a lot that's right with the model in context, but a lot of it looks pretty damn terrible. Like those ears, ugh. And I liked that the jungle trolls only had a vestigial toenail remnant on their heel (it's there now on the current model, and always has been), and not an outright toe like the jungle/ice trolls. Why it's poppin' out on Vol'jin suddenly I dunno. He needs some damn pants, that's for certain. Like the fact that they gave him proper Shadow Hunter gear with the shoulder/back bit like Rokhan from WC3, though.
Vol'Jin looks awesome 'mon!
If this is a glimpse of what new player character models would be, then I'm very excited!
No mention of Elemental Shams. I R Disappoint.
It's a bag of skulls.

Gief Engineers some love for Cata, clouds (I don't have gathering prof) n a Yellow Submarine water-mount!
He's a jungle troll, not a forest troll. Even then, only a few forest trolls are the big bulky ones you're thinking of. He is already plently bulky given his height. Trolls and their elven cousins probably have a more efficient, compact muscle structure than humans or orcs.
Brewmaster is not a nerf, Misleading tooltip
Remember, They made it so Tiger palm is instant 30% reduction on first application, If they still allowed brewmasters to stack it 3 times, it would be 90% reduction...
Your getting the same effect as before, but instead of casting it 3 times, you only need to do it once.
TL;DR Brewmasters are not being nerfed, there just cleaning up the tooltip since they made tiger palm 30% on first application instead of 10% each time stacking to 3
