I'm always surprised at how some things are almost traditions in World of Warcraft, and the most surprising (to me) is the Mage vs. Warlock hate. Even more so than the Alliance/Horde rivalry and that one's pretty weird, if you think about it -- how deep the divide between players of a video game based entirely on what color the background for their faction is, ultimately.

With this week's Heroes announcements, we're seeing Kael'Thas from Warcraft and the Crusader from Diablo 3 joining the Nexus ranks in Heroes of the Storm.

So, I ask you - play any old school Blizzard games? Maybe Blackthorne or Lost Vikings or even The Death and Return of Superman, which was totally a Blizzard game?

Now that you've had the chance to use this addition to the game... are you actually doing so?

In Diablo 3, I love Whirlwind on my Barbarian.

My relationship with World of Warcraft mirrors that of many others, I'd imagine.

The final wing of Hearthstone's Blackrock Mountain Adventure was released last week, so now seems like the perfect time to check in on everyone's progress. Have you swept through all of the bosses and class challenges?

Earlier this week in Know Your Lore, I talked about why Grommash Hellscream should potentially stick around. I wasn't quite sure about his character after his Lords of War short, but what we've seen on Draenor kind of convinced me that I like the guy -- he's got potential.

Will they announce a new Diablo III expansion at gamescom, at PAX, or even at BlizzCon? Are they working on one? What will it be? Will it have a new class and if so, what should it be? (My argument on this week's podcast was that it should be some variation on the Diablo II druid.) But the more I think about a Diablo III expansion, the more I wonder if what we really, ultimately want, is Diablo IV or perhaps even something else entirely set in the Diablo universe.

Pepe, the little feathered dynamo who perches in your garrison, is getting an assortment of four cute little costumes of his own in patch 6.2. Beyond these 4, which ones are you just dying to have for your own Pepe?
