Thanks Cpt. Obvious. I know it's not based on WoW. But the fact that the flagship game for the Warcraft franchise (WoW) hasn't developed stories behind the reappearance of Azshara has a major factor on who will appear in HS. So far, most of the characters revealed are somewhat major lore characters, HS is still missing a lot of lore characters that made just as much of an impact: Maiev (Rogue), Jared Shadowsong (Warrior), Kael'thus (Mage), Bearmantle (Druid), Benedictus (Priest), Nekros Skullcrusher (Warlock), Nathanos Blightcaller (Hunter), Drek'Thar (Shaman), Lady Liadrin (Paladin). All of whom, had somewhat of an impact to the game, that could be seen as exceeding that of Azshara's (other than Azshara turning the Night Elven Elites into Nagas by communing to N'zoth).
TL;DR: You don't know what you're talking about because Blizzard is definitely not going to release characters that are not recognizable by their casual followers. WoW is Blizzard medium for introducing lore characters, and getting players to be interested in those particular characters. Azshara has only appeared in WoW once, in character and not the zone.

Skycap'n Kragg, Reno Jackson, Elise Starseeker, Arch-Thief Rafaam, Sir Finley Mrrgglton, Bolf Ramshield and Nexus-Champion Saraad say they can make whatever card they want these days.
Hell Sir Finley is a main character in the Legion expansion now! The reason those big names haven't been used is due to wanting to use them for hero skins (3 of which are already confirmed)

The descriptions belong to the site writers (which are French), so I don't see why those wouldn't be legit.

It will very probably be on the PlayHearthstone channel in Twitch. That's usually what they use.
