The gaming universe of Hearthstone gets exponentially intriguing with Finley and Luni dropping hints at what a future expansion or an entire year might look like. Our story began with a post authored by Big-Ingenuity-5620. The speculation is chiefly driven by Runi’s description and Finley’s curious voice line, which presumably suggest an expansion oriented around time travel.

Summary

  • Both Runi’s backstory and Finley’s voice line hint towards a potential time travel theme.
  • Developers have purposely concealed information, fueling speculations about a time-travelling expansion.
  • Considering Hearthstone’s 10th anniversary, a time travel theme would be an apt way to revisit the past.

Sleuthing the Time Travel Clues

Runi, mentioned in a Caverns of Time expansion-linked interview, is labelled a time explorer, on an undisclosed mission that got’suspiciously’ cut off at a critical juncture. Furthermore, Finley, newly introduced with the mini-set card, says, “I do say, what is this dreadful place?”, apparently clueless about his whereabouts, thus strengthening Big-Ingenuity-5620’s speculation on the time travel theme.

Community Reactions and Insights

The prediction triggered quite the conversation among the gaming community, with some stoking the fire of conjecture while others added their own theories. ChessGM123 gave an interesting perspective on Finley’s flavor text and IAmAdamTaylor pointed out a similar idea being shared on a different thread.

Fan Theories and Hopes

FlyBoyG, on the other hand, pondered on his fan-hypothesis based on an intriguing Arena event from two years ago. Many are excited with the theory, hoping for a ‘League of Explorers’ card or a revisit to iconic Warcraft locations, as speculated by ImDocDangerous and Cysia respectively.

All in all, as players ruminate on the possible indications of Hearthstone’s heroes and speculate on time travel’s role in future expansions, their shared fervor and enthusiasm continue to fuel the intrigue-ridden environment of Hearthstone. Thus reminiscing the past while eagerly waiting to flip the pages of future expansions.
