    unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg


    like the title says, what are some of your favorite characters from the MMO you'd love to see in the TCG? here's mine:


    Alliance:

    Vanndar Stormpike (Dwarf Warrior): leader of the Stormpike Expedition, he's a major Alliance boss character in the Alterac Valley pvp Battleground. besides, we need more Dwarven unique characters (so far there's only King Magni, Kurdran and that Gryphon flight master I believe)

    Archdruid Fandral Staghelm (Night Elf Druid): although he's quite the jerk in the MMO, he's definitely a powerful character (even stronger than Tyrande, who happens to be Darnassus' city boss). he can be the Alliance's counterpart to the Horde's Hamuul Runetotem/Alamo (so yay for Alliance druids?)

    Farseer Nobundo (Draenei Shaman): he can have an effect similar to Fandral/Alamo but for shaman perhaps?

    Talvash del Kissel (Gnome Jewelcrafter?): since I can't think of any noteworthy Gnomes from the Alliance (the tcg already has High Tinker Mekkatorque, Razak Ironsides and Tinkmaster Overspark, but it's still so few), so I thought of the next memorable gnome-quest giver from the MMO (he's involved in the Uldaman quests).


    Horde:

    Drek'thar (Orc Shaman):  If the Alliance has Vanndar Stormpike, the Horde has Frostwolf Clan's elder shaman, Drek'thar. he should come with his two pet wolves somehow (maybe tokens like Rexxar/Bear Lady Brala?)

    Vol'jin (Troll Witchdoctor): as far as I know, the tcg has yet to receive any unique troll allies, so what better way to start off w/ the Darkspear's racial leader.

    Magatha Grimtotem (Tauren Shaman): sure, she's evil, but officially she's still part of the Horde. she's also supposedly a powerful shaman in her own right, so she could be the Horde's equivalent of Farseer Nobundo. plus, if we include her, that makes it 3 Tauren unique allies in the tcg so far.

    Nathanos Blightcaller (Undead Dark Ranger): Champion of the Banshee Queen herself, Nathanos provides a lot of quests for Horde players in the Eastern Plaguelands while also serving as the final target of the Alliance's questline.


    Neutral:

    Archmage Khadgar (Human Mage): the last Sons of Lothar member revealed so far who has yet to appear in the tcg. he also happens to be an important lore character and it still boggles me why he's still not in card form while lesser important beings like Xi'ri already got the tcg treatment.

    Warlord Zul'jin (Troll Witchdoctor): let's face it, we'll never see Zul'Aman as a raid deck in the tcg. but being an important troll lore character, I think it's only fair that the chief of the Amani tribe can be played as a neutral ally.

    Hakkar the Soulflayer (Blood God): like Zul'jin, Zul'Gurub's end baddie has no chance of being a raid boss for the tcg. however, I still feel the Gurubashi troll storyline is one of the best in WoW, so it would be a shame if Hakkar himself can't be played by players. (for Traitor heroes only perhaps?)

    Edwin VanCleef (Human Rogue): leader of the Defias Brotherhood (a criminal organization seeking vengeance on the Stormwind nobles) and a major antagonist in another memorable + interesting storyline in WoW. I'm sure I'm not the only guy who hopes for the opportunity to play VanCleef himself. also considering his status as a wanted criminal, maybe he should be for Traitor heroes only as well?


    those are some of my suggestions. heck, I don't care if these cards aren't even made in the current block, but just make sure we get to seem them somewhere along the line. c'mon UDE, make it happen!!

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

    it seems that narthanos is going to happen in blood of the gladiators
    http://www.wowtcg.fr/images/wallpapers/maxi/133.jpg
    I am really enthusiastic about it
    one of my favourite questgivers in plaguelands

    and to as what I would like to see
    ALLIANCE
    defenetly Archdruid Fandral staghelm (because he is a jerk , somethink like the hit me tauren from trough the dark portal , but usefull )
    another dwarf .... any dwarf .... maybe one of the nessingway
    no more epic gnomes !!!
    enough is enough
    humans it seems we get the prince of stormwind
    and as for draeni ... we had enough draeni as aldors .... although I would like to see norbundo

    HOARD
    Garosh ( the son of hellscream ... need I say more ?)
    voll'jin - would be about time to have a troll epic :)) something witchdoctory
    blood elfs were enough as scryers
    since narthanos is shouwing up I think it covers undead for a while :P
    and tauren .... I would have liked a better version of hammul runetotem

    NEUTRAL
    Zul'Jin - traitor preferably , making 4 tokens , for each beast god thingy in the instance
    and some more naga
    I really liked vashj and the coliskar general
    and I would like khadgar as well , although I am not sure if he should be neutral or alliance  .... and they made xi'ri and A'dal because they are na'ru , superior beings , and so on .... and they fitted well the legion block

    and sometime , in the future , I would like to see some of the dragon aspects

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

    Blademaster (basically the unit from wc3) - My blade-uh cut through armor, and still cut a tomato. Twin blade armor, for clean close shave every time.   Would be interesting to see a mirror image effect.

    Arthas pre corruption and post corruption.

    Medivh

    Grom hellscream

    Malfurion

    Basically anyone who was or is cool in the lore. See: this website for ideas.

    Alexstrasza - she is so effing hawt!

    1287275:
    Alexstrasza - she is so effing hawt!


    I agree, Alexstrasza is like a definite must (and make JonBoy Meyers do her illustration :D); also Krasus and Kalecgos shouldn't be forgotten too (esp since they would also give the Dragonslayer's Signet a bit more use. lol). and while we're at it, other notable WotLK npcs like Tirion Fordring, Darion Mograine and Rhonin should have a presence in the tcg as well.

    for the Alliance, there's Vereesa Windrunner and Muradin Bronzebear/Yorg Stormheart and the Horde can get Garrosh Hellscream and Rokhan.

    but since we might not see WotLK characters just yet (maybe not until Fields of Honor since we're getting DK stuff in there. hope to see Darion in that set), what other BC/vanilla WoW characters do you think should get the card treatment?

    there's Lantresor of the Blade (who happens to be only in-game Blademaster so far), and I must concur that Hemet Nesingwary is a significant character who's interesting enough to warrant a tcg portrayal. I also think Griftah (w/ the power of Tikbalang protection!) and Cro Threadstrong (complete w/ his "Fruit Vendor!" threats as flavor text ) would be fun additions to the card game.

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

    Griftah could have a pretty cool effect - pay 3 to put a counter on Griftah.

    What ... why?

    Resource sink to counter Kael'thas' effect, of course.

    Definitely need some big Troll epics.

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

    oh, and something to do with the Sons of Hodir quest chain. I recently did it again on my DK (the first time, our whole guild did it together, so it didn't feel so epic as soloing through it).

    actually, we already have a "Wanted: Hogger" quest in Dark Portal. now all we need is for them to make the corresponding Hogger token for it (and it better have a kickass art!!). I'm pretty sure almost everyone will want to get their hands on one from the UDE Store then.

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

        Wouldn't be surprised if we saw some more city leaders in the next set.  Vol'jin needs to be in there.  I would like to see how Zul'jin would work, maybe payment powers to do different things (an interupt for the bird aspect, damage for bear etc).  Vancleef should be in there for some novelty.  Hodir is a good one Space.  I would like to see Hemet, he would make a great addition.

    I think that you Leonard have as much of a chance of having a sexual relationship with Penny as the Hubble telescope does of discovering at the center of every black hole is a little man with a flashlight searching for a circuit breaker.

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

    Tirion Fordring I have no idea what to put down for him but something Paladin like.

    I know it will come probably in the later sets but Frostmourne and if they put it in the Ashbringer should also be put in.

    Sicco Thermaplugg: Is actually the boss of gnomer but at one point was headed to become the first king of the gnomes in 400 years. I'd like to see his form before he was transformed. Was also best friends with Mekkatorque.

    Other then the other characters listed I can't think of anything. I really wanna see them do something with the professions other then the piss ant job they've done so far.

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg


    bumping an old thread :)

    seems like we've finally gotten Vanndar Stormpike, Vol'jin & Drek'thar in recent sets (although personally I think Vann is just meh).

    here's to seeing Tirion Fordring, Khadgar, Fandral Staghelm, Farseer Nobundo, Magatha Grimtotem & Nathanos Blightcaller in the upcoming block (oh, and the king version of Varian Wrynn pls :))

    Re: unique allies you'd love to see in the tcg

    Netrual:

    Scaron, The Scarlet Onslaught Death Knight.
    Lets face it, we all want one. And we all know Scarlet Onslaught is the best and the most powerful organization in WoW.

    You know you wish you could be a brain-washed racist who is apart of the Scarlet Onslaught!
