So, I am a big fan of new content and I love to speculate: Share your ideas for what the new Hero Classes (Deathknight, Titan, and Oracle) might have in store for us! Perks, Traits, Colors, Class Weapons??? Any Speculation is GOOD speculation! šŸ˜‰ EDIT: @Ashasekayi found the details below and posted so, speculation is over, but as always, all spoilers are subject to change before release SOā€¦ Enjoyā€¦ for now. šŸ˜‰ ---

Do you think Deathknight might bring necromancy to the hero class? I am really intrigued by what Oracle might bring. Iā€™m thinking along the lines of Enchanting and Mana Stormsā€¦ ---

Thanks for the info @Ashasekayi and the spoiler. I didnā€™t worry about blurring the NAMES of the classes since a dev dropped those in an official post. But this stuff definitely should be. Ironically, this was EXACTLY what I was looking for, but my search skills pale in comparison to you oh mighty kitty! Thanks again, Ash! šŸ˜‰ ---

Oracle looks extremely weak, Titan looks good in a good way, Deathknight looks bad in the worst way (may spurn one of the worst metas to date). Still holding out hope Deathknightā€™s third trait gets reworked before they are releasedā€¦ ---

I ā€œassumeā€ they already nerfed or plan to nerf Deathknightā€™s last trait. ---

I really hope they go another route with the Titan class weapon before release. Thorodin is a shittier Warlordā€™s battlecry (less damage even with the dependancy of 4 giants on the team and canā€™t be targetted), in addition giants really arenā€™t in need of just another meh basic singletaget spellā€¦just saying. They should rather make Thorodin something about heavy AoE damage or some added board control, or team buffing, strong status effectsā€¦whatever, you know any of the stuff that giants really have a giant(!) lack off currently. ---

> [@Mithran](#): > > Still holding out hope Deathknightā€™s third trait gets reworked before they are releasedā€¦ As much as I like the idea of USING itā€¦ having it used against me is frightening enough that I MUST agree 100% with this. Its just not even reasonableā€¦ ā˜¹ As for Titanā€¦ I may start building my team now! šŸ˜‰ Oracle needs to offer moreā€¦ I like the class weapon but the third trait seems lack-luster when compared with Titanā€™s for example. ---

I wouldnā€™t mind a 50% chance to death mark on 4 or 5 gem matches. ---

What if Thorodin read as follows: Select an ally: Explode Magic+1 gems of that allyā€™s color. If ally is a Giant, ally gains random status effect That would provide explosion and status buffs which giants are missingā€¦?? ---

> [@Maxx](#): > > I wouldnā€™t mind a 50% chance to death mark on 4 or 5 gem matches. Still would. The issue is that a single match 4 or 5 can cause you to lose a troop outright which requires a specific type of play and teambuilding that becomes grating over long periods of time. Doesnā€™t matter if its 50%, or 25%, or 10% all the way down until the point where people stop using it altogether. All this does is make it even less reliable on offense and even more irritating on defense. ---

Death Mark is just not a fun mechanicā€¦ Or to be blunt: Its hella fun on OFFENSE, _ **when** _ it procs, but is rage inducing, vomit spewing madness on DEFENSE, _ **when** _ it procs. Because of this juxtaposition of emotion, its a device that most players would simply rather not have in the game. ---

I would love for that trait to be removed completely but since that wonā€™t happen a 50% to death mark is better than always death marking. I would actually prefer death mark just be removed from the game completely. ---

> [@efh313](#): > > most players No way for us to know if **most** do or do not want death mark in game. But, I like death mark. That said, Iā€™m sure that the forum will blow up with rage if anything in the game getā€™s deathmark on 4+ matches. So, it would be better to just go ahead and nix it before the rage.
