Summary
After almost 10 years,Hearthstoneis finally adding Therazane the Stonemother, an important character in the framework ofWorld of Warcraft, and the only Elemental Lord who hasn’t been printed as a card yet. Therazane is coming as the headlining neutral Legendary card in the Delve into Deepholm Mini-Set for theShowdown in the BadlandsHearthstoneexpansion.
The Elemental Lords are the four most powerful elementals inWorld of Warcraft. Asone ofWoW’s first raid bosses, Ragnaros the Firelord is the most recognizable, but Neptulon the Tidehunter, Al’akir the Windlord, and Therazane the Stonemother all played major roles inWorld of Warcraft:Cataclysmand beyond. InHearthstone, Ragnaros, Neptulon, and Al’akir each appear across multiple cards and heroes in both constructed and Battlegrounds, with Ragnaros and Al’akir both being in the game since launch. Therazane, on the other hand, was nowhere to be found.
Now,Hearthstoneis finally bringing the Stonemother toHearthstonein a big way. Therazane is one of the four new Legendary cards coming in Delve into Deepholm, the 38-card Mini-Set forShowdown in the Badlands. The Neutral Elemental is a 7/5 Taunt minion that costs 7 mana, and who doubles the stats of allElemental minions in theHearthstoneplayer’s hand and deck after she dies, leaving a huge impact even after she leaves the battlefield. Players can add the iconic Elemental Lord to complete their set by pulling her in packs, or by picking up the full Mini-Set directly from the shop.
