Blizzard keep it fucking simple, let the DK hero be Arthas.
I hope the hero will be Arthas when the DK class will eventually come, with Mograine being the legendary. He could even turn into the Lich King similiar like Jaraxxus replaces Gul'Dan, when you use Helm of Domination. Koltira and Thassarian aren't close as memorable, we don't even know where they've been in WoW.
When your opponent summons Tirion, he should yell something like ''THE ARGENT CRUSADE COMES FOR YOU, ARTHAS!''
I suppose Mograine is the legendary. And why its not Arthas as hero would be since he will most likely be the last boss in the (most likely to come) ICC expansion. That leaves few well known DK's available apart from this guy, the human version and Crok Scourgebane(?).
I too would pick Arthas that way when they release an ICC expansion we can fight Arthas as Arthas and watch as people complain about that as well.
If Arthas will be a hero I hope Justin Gross returns to voice him. I wonder what all of his emotes would be like.
As much as I would love this to be true, I feel it is just a well done fake. Or it could just be from internal testing. Just because Blizzard stated there wouldn't be new heroes anytime soon, doesn't mean they haven't messed around with possibilities. My vote still goes with fake though.
As for the argument between using Arthas as the hero or not, he wouldn't fit the bill as a hearthstone hero. A legendary card yes, but not a hero. His role in lore is too defined as the lich king. If they have any interest in releasing an ICC adventure pack, it would not make any sense to have an Arthas hero and an Arthas boss to fight. Koltira or Mograine suit it better.
It's not even a well done fake, the card at the bottom is all kinds of wrong. The card should have white/tan coloured areas, not all be one tone.
I'd guess Arthas would be the class legendary, I'd imagine his ability would be that whatever he kills is copied to his side of the board. Mograine seems a likely choice for hero, but at the same time something other than human would be preferable as 3 of the 9 are human already.
There is a video now apprently from Reddit, but the picture is different from the Death Knight in the video.
The admitted the video was fake - http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...ppears/page210

It better be real, because if it isn't the guy needs to seek help to go to such lengths , that looks pretty real in that vid.
Looks like Highlord Darion Mograine.
Who the hell is that? Koltira?
We don't want some namby-pamby DK representative.
Give us ARTHAS!
Or at least Darion or something. Hell, Thassarian would be better... he killed Koltira, after all, and pulled his ass out of the fire in New Avalon.
