Last week, Blizzard revealed more details about tickets for the upcoming BlizzCon and we also got to see the key art which shows Thrall. Now the question is why Thrall and what role will he play in WoW going forward?
If you haven’t seen it yet here’s the full version of the BlizzCon key art:
Each game has a different character tied to it, we have Lilith for Diablo, Winston representing Overwatch, an elf holding Hearthstone cards, a gnome engineer/flight master for Arclight Rumble and Thrall for WoW.
As far as announcements go, I believe Blizzard reveals a new WoW expansion every other BlizzCon and around BlizzCon, Dragonflight will have been out for just 1 year, so one would think they will reveal a big content update for the game instead.
Some wild speculations surrounding Thrall even mention the revival of Heroes of the Storm because this can easily be interpreted as HotS Thrall.
Just for comparison, Jaina was in the 2017 key art when Battle for Azeroth was announced and Sylvanas represented Warcraft on the BlizzCon 2019 key art when Shadowlands was revealed.
Do you think we’ll see Thrall in Dragonflight or will we see a new expansion announcement? Let us know in the comments!
