As previously shared, the iconic Warcraft villain, The Lich King, is making his appearance in Warcraft Rumble. Our favorite treasonous, scumbag, death knight arrives in the game as part of the wider Season 13 update. The patch brings with it some other intriguing and exciting changes as well. The Lich King joins the game on March 26th, as part of a two week event. His stats, abilities and more information can be found here.
Details via Blizzard
Take to the frozen wastes of Icecrown and battle Arthas at Icecrown Citadel. Defeat him and his minions in a series of 3 challenging maps with increasing difficulty to unlock this new Alliance and Undead Split Leader.
During the 2 week event, you can unlock Arthas as a new Alliance and Undead Split Leader -- earn additional copies, skins and the items needed to upgrade this powerful new Mini.
Army Loadouts
Army Loadouts are here! Each Leader can have up to 3 different army, talent, and cosmetic loadout configurations that can easily be swapped between at the press of a button. Unlock the second loadout at Sigil 40 and the third loadout at Sigil 50!
Want to use your friend or guildmates loadout? No problem! Copy and import loadout codes to share with others in Guild chat or to use on a different Leader of your own! To make sharing easy, we've added the ability to copy Guild chat messages, just tap the message to copy. When using these codes, any unowned Minis or talents will not be equipped.
Leader Skins
Arthas will be the first Leader to receive skins. Alongside Arthas, we have plans for additional Mini skins that will be coming soon, some sooner than others.
Icecrown Tower Skins
Master Skins
Details about how you can collect these glittering GOLD skins will be coming soon. You wont need sharks with laser beams attached to their heads to unlock them.
Normal and Heroic Siege
Are you ready to lay siege to the Alliance city of Stormwind in this co-op adventure? Queue up to battle against iconic characters, defeat all 3 bosses to unlock an additional difficulty with even more epic rewards!
Season 13 Patch Notes
We have resolved several issues, including Ragnaros' Blast Wave, which was not dealing damage or applying Burn to structures. Additionally, we have made adjustments to Leaders, Troops, and Missions. We also addressed an issue with Frostwolf Shaman in Player versus Player.
This is an exciting update, though I have to imagine the hardcore playerbase for Warcraft Rumble will still be somewhat disappointed that it sounds like Icecrown Citadel will not be an in-game raid, with Arthas being a reward for completion. It sounds like he's just a reward for completing a series of challenging maps. I hope the challenges are fulfilling for those who were seeking that raid-like difficulty. The leader skins are an exciting addition. I'm a big fan of pre-Lich King Arthas, so that Leader Skin where he is still the Prince of Lordaeron is a tantalizing offer. Hopefully this update keeps the fans happy and Blizzard continues supporting the game long into the future. The remainder of the patch notes can be found here.
