Looks like an homage to the painting "An American Gothic".

I don't recall seeing any cactus in the Badlands of WoW. Maybe it's more of a reference to SoCal where BlizzCon takes place, like a competition or something?

Based on the image on the shirt and the style of the title with cactus, it looks like a western / wild west / cowboy style kind of Hearthstone expansion.

So that long leak that someone posted was fake haha as they had something in for hearthstone that wasnt this.

It seems to be the next expansion and it seems to be either a big whoopsie from Blizzard Gear's team or a weird way to tease.

I mean they made Gadgetzan an enormous city in that Hearthstone expansion so why wouldn't they add some cactuses to Badlands?

[Xilurm]

The Hearthstone team can probably make an expansion out of Fargodeep Mine alone so there's not really any point in questioning it.

I guess.

Always watchin'

We have been blessed!

Meanwhile, they have tee-shirts and sweat-shirts for all the WoW classes except Evoker. Kind of a weird oversight.

Oh look, another confirmation that Stormfall 'leak' is a bs.
New leak with already leaked HS expansion name is in 3..2..1..

[flan1337]

Always watchin'

Hope your doing well friend!

Yeah, I just checked, it was 15 days prior to the announcement. But we are getting close to that.

Yes the real leaks for DF were

The key art of Alezstrasza
The Dragonflight domain name
and one blurry shot of the real cinematic tree days before Blizzcon

We also had a photo of a ugly blue Dracthyr, a red Dracthyr casting Fire Breath and a screenshot of the Resto Druid talent tree.

Interesting, because I didn’t feel claustrophobic in Deepholme or Zaralek. There’s not much that can be done for people with phobias. We can’t avoid having huge spiders in the game because someone has arachnophobia. We can’t avoid aerial zones because someone has a fear of heights. We shouldn’t avoid an underground expansion because people have claustrophobia. In the end, diversity of themes should be paramount, or else the game becomes stale.

I agree, but I do think a big expansion zone should be taller than Zaralek. Like twice as tall at least.

Leave it up to Blizzard themselves to bring the thunder. Classic.

Well, weekend is gone now we are in another week of maybe some juicy stuff.

I want some very believable leak that says ogres or mok'nathal as playable races for my hopium table, even when the news of it not happening will break my heart once again.

[Chickat]

I really hope we don't get underground zones. I really don't understand the obsession some people seem to have with them. "Oh you liked being inside caves and such? Here, you'll be stuck in them for a whole expansion!"

In Cata, and with Zaralek it's ok because there is enough of a difference between the zones. You can go to coastal areas, you can go to snow areas, you can go underground. With a whole Deepholme style expansion? "Here are caves, and look! some more caves. What's around the corner you ask? CAVES!"

I do agree that the entire expansion shouldn't be underground, but there are definitely enough potential biomes and themes for 2 underground zones. IMO a good xpac theme would be a continent as big as old Kalimdor pre sundering. Meaning it would take 2-3 expansions to unlock it all. First xpac is 5 zones. 2 underground and 3 above ground. Then each other xpac could just stick with 1 underground zone each or even just large cave networks in the zones but the meat of each zone being above ground.

Now what we need is to find that 1 in a million leak that used the hearthstone title.
