Dreadlord Hero Reveal
Heroes of the Storm will see a Nathrezim added to the roster as the next hero! We don't know who it is specifically yet, but we will of course update as soon as we know.

    I guess in Hyjal he does have the waves of minions too so that would totes fit if he could do something with them.

    This could be fun as I have no idea what spells he'd have. Also some of them like D&D would overlap with stuff like Kel' Thuzad's frost ground spell. Either way everyone finally gets the dreadlord they've been asking for.
    Not first time actually. :P

    Sweet, another highly requested hero from me making its way into the game. By the looks of it it seems to be Mal'Ganis due to his green armor (though Detheroc and Dalvengyr were also green dreadlords, but not as popular). The dreadlords hero kit from WC3 would also fit well for HotS, looking forward to drop down infernals on peoples head.

    While I can easily see Blizzard giving them an Inferno ult, I hope they save the Inferno for Jaraxxus(with Malchezaar skin) Eredar hero. Dreadlords have plenty of other cool abilities they can use, but well see soon from the spotlight I'm sure.

    Mal'Ganis for sure.

    I've looked at both of them, yes he was green in legion, but he got black-ish armor, as for mal'ganis who got grey-green-ish(yup..) armor with exact purple jewel in his belt

    What are you talking about? Jaina has been in the game since launch.

    Best part is they can just color the hero differently to have him be the others!

    Super glad that all signs seem to be pointing to it being Mal'ganis. He will always be the original Dreadlord, for me. Tichondrius would have also been acceptable; I guess I would have been fine with almost anyone (even an original Dreadlord character) so long as it wasn't that loser Varimathras. And as people have said, he'll probably get different tints that can make him look like other Dreadlords as well.

    Now, just got to hope that his kit is actually representative of the Dreadlord hero from WCIII and/or how Dreadlord's have been handled in lore elsewhere. Still mildly disappointed that Mephisto was just a straight up damage dealer, and they didn't really do anything clever with the whole "Lord of Hate" thing.

    But hasn't Jaina been in the game since release?

    Its actually a pretty lame joke that hit critical cringe when they wasted a q and a question at blizzcon here

    I am guessing Either Mal'ganis or Tichondrius.

    Of course it could also be Balnazzar, Anetheron or even a dreadlord with a random warcraft 3 dreadlord name.

    It's Mal'ganis. It was leaked a few weeks ago to those in the industry.

    He needs a Theramore Mage skin.

    Simply remove the armor, give him some dress, and the blonde wig - all with the Nathrezim bod.

    No source. An ex-friend of ours (his online handle is sn1pe, feel free to find his Steam page and you'll see he's an employee in the industry currently living in Texas, if that's not a source enough for you you can poop on yourself I guess) who maintains a speaking relationship with one of my friends. Sn1pe happens to be well connected socially to a lot of Blizzard employees. He's often a source of leaks, especially release dates and stuff.

    If you want proof he's a valid source so much, then feel free to add him and suck his dick a bunch (but never ever get in a fight or disagreement of any severity or he'll go bipolar and remove you) and he'll probably filter random tidbits of leaks to you, too.
