Tortollans Aren't the Only Hearthstone Creation Coming to WoW
Skycap'n Kragg is taking to the Horde and Alliance in Battle for Azeroth! Mentioned as a boss in the Freehold dungeon, it looks like heroes will be fighting against him and his tremendous parrot mount, Sharkbait.

They come up with some really cool stuff in Hearthstone sometimes. I definitely hope more of it makes its way into the game in the future.
It'd be cool if they updated Gadgetzan with the 3 factions from Mean Streets of Gadgetzan. Maybe you could work to gain reputation and rewards from each group, or choose one and work against the others.
EDIT: Oh, looks like the Fungarian (mushroom people) from Kobolds & Catacombs are also going to be in BfA. They're on the cards Dark Pact, Shrieking Shroom, and Fungal Enchanter.
Expanding many of the cities on Azeroth to be more complex and detailed (including more NPCs) would be fantastic. While Stormwind and Orgrimmar stand the most to gain from this being great hubs for the Alliance and Horde, it would be awesome for Gadgetzan to witness similar treatment... especially since the "Mean Streets of Gadgetzan" is more like... mean street of Gadgetzan in-game.
Kul Tiras does right now look pretty beautiful. This kind of expansion, even if it includes primarily just texture updates on buildings in the cities, would be fantastic.
Nice catch on the fungarians, too!
Hearthstone is Warcraft lore in card form, I agree it should regularly contribute to WoW lore.
However, Mean Streets of Gadgetzan takes places in the far future - when Gadgetzan is a full-sized city. I think it will be some time before any of that can be found in WoW.
Whatever happened to the shoot people in zangarmarsh. Did we see them in Draenor?
