Are just ignoring the fact that the font of the letters of "Shadowlands" is a mix-and-match of other fonts of all the other Warcraft expansions?
Be better, people.
but there are people who avoid the "leak" threads so they can have the announcement excitement in the opening ceremony. And to me, making a front page post about unconfirmed(some confirmed fake) leaks is very disrespectful to the people who avoid those kinds of posts, but come here for news about the game.
I expect nothing and I know they'll find a way to disappoint me.
Want to believe it but there is a big mistake that takes it all down.
Look at Bolvar "eyes" color.
Last time we saw them they were on fire, not blue like those of the previous Lich King.
Honestly, the font similarities is consistent with what we've seen in the past. Blizzard reuses the font set (with minor thematic alterations) for most of the expansions. There tend to be a few unique fonts, which actually is the case here too (S and L are quite different from other expansions). Most of the similarities are for letters that have shared fonts already for 2+ expansions, with the exception of H which is similar to BfA but different from Wrath.
S is unique and different from other expansions
H is the same as the BfA one but different from WotLK
A is similar to TBC, WotLK, Cata, MoP, and WoD but differs from BfA
D is the same as that from TBC, MoP, and WoD
O is similar to one from Legion and WotLK
W is identical to WotLK and WoD
L is unique, similar style to other expansions but much longer hook
A same as above
N is identical to TBC, WotLK, MoP, and Legion. WoD one is very very similar but has some distortion.
D same as above
S same as above

Yeah, this part seems to be the biggest inconsistency with the leak. Unless there is something we are missing with Bolvar's eyes getting the blue glow, this appearance isn't consistent with the in-game Bolvar we've already seen.
Regarding the LK eyes: He's in the process of changing his spec from frost to fire DK of course. Duh.
/s (at least a little^^)
*Looks at promotional image of Garosh from MoP*
Wait Garosh isn't that Buff and he doesn't have Horn shoulder pads or a tattooed chin! That image is fake!
*Looks at promotional image of Khadgar from Legion*
Wait Khadgar has a beard! That image is fake!
*Looks at promotional image of Tyrande from BFA*
Wait Tyrande doesn't have black eyes; her eyes are white! That image is fake!
I'm not saying that this supposed leak is real, but saying it's fake because his eyes are the wrong color is a pointless argument. Characters evolve and change in WoW all the time for story reasons.
Got to get that hype up for blizcon announcements and ticket sales.
Also does anyone else think that the blue ribbon-like thing in the top image looks a lot like Snake-way from Dragonball Z?
No leak can be true if it doesn't contain Dragonsworn class. It must happen, if only because I want it.
What Lich King? Bolvar is The Lich King. The crown has no other entity to offer. But I can imegine someone somehow hijacked it, judging by the color I would say Ner'zhul or Arthas. But then the latter has no reason considering he became whole after his soul was freed. A
So even of the title of the next expasion is Shadowlands it doesn't mean that clearly bollocks leak is true.
I enjoy planning out hypothetical games. Nearly 5 years ago i planned out a English based pokemon games, i dubbed them sword and shield. I got the name right i got literally eveything else wrong. I was not some sort of clairvoyant leaker.
The blue eyes simply mean that Bolvar has lost control
