Summary

• Hero Skins in Hearthstone add variety to the gameplay experience, featuring characters from World of Warcraft and Hearthstone originals.
• Legendary Skins are fully animated and more expensive, but they don't provide any advantage on the Hearthstone ladder.
• Each Legendary Skin has its own unique characteristics and voice lines, allowing players to customize their gameplay and add personality to their decks.

Hero Skins are a great way to spice up your 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Hearthstone experience. You can play the game as a variety of characters, including icons from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:World of Warcraft and some Hearthstone originals.

But Legendary Skins are in a league of their own. Unlike normal Skins, they 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:are fully animated, which really makes them stand out. They are also some of the most expensive skins in Hearthstone, costing the in-game equivalent of about 25 dollars, so it’s important to know what you’re getting before you make the investment. Let's look at the options to help you decide which of them is the right choice.

This list is ranked purely based on personal preference. Picking one of these Skins over another will not give you a tangible ad🍃vantage on the Hearthstone ladder.

7 🐼 MC Blingtron: Rogue

In a lineup of well-known characters, MC Blingtron stands out as the least memorable of the bunch. That’s not really his fault; his original form, Blingtron 3000, is an opponent from the Brawler's Guild in World of Warcraft. That's already a low starting point in the grand scheme of World of Warcraft lore, and MC Blingtron is an even less notable version of the battle bot.

For Hearthstone players, MC Blingtron likely doesn’t even have the same amount of cache as the Hearthstone-only character we’ll see later on this list. And while using Blingtron's flashier, music-themed variant does spice things up a bit with some funky voice lines, it’s not enough to push him above the competition.

6 ꩲ Varian W꧃rynn: Warrior

Varian Wrynn is the father of the Priest class' main representative, Anduin. In World of Warcraft’s lore, Varian is very dead, killed by the original Warlock, Gul’dan, but you can help keep the King of Stormwind’s memory alive with this Legendary Skin.

The Alliance’s former leader acts exactly how you’d expect, wi🔴th dramatic voice lines like “The Alliance will forge a new destiny for Azeroth,” and “Your heart is honorable.” Not exactly the most exciting character out there, but if that’s the vibe you’re going for, Varian Wrynn is there for you.

5 𒐪 Arthas Menethil: Death𒁃 Knight

Those who are familiar with World of Warcraft’s lore will know that Arthas Menethil and the character in the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:basic Death Knight Hero Skin, the Lich King, are the 🎶same person, just at different stages of theꦍir life.

Arthas’ fall is one of the most important events in Azeroth’s history, and this Legendary Skin gives you a look at him before his full transition into one of the greatest threats in World of Warcraft’s history. Howeve💎r, since this depiction of Arthas has Frostmourne in hand, it seems he is already well on his way to becoming fully corruꦬpted.

4 🌜 Sylvanas, Ranger Geneꦦral: Hunter

The Sylvanas, Ranger General Skin depicts Sylvanas in a pre-undead form you probably aren't especially familiar with if you aren't especially familiar with World of Warcraft. She had a much less murder-y vibe at that point in her life.

The Skin also lets you hear Sylvanas' unaltered voice, which she uses to talk about honor and hunting strategy rather than her usual promises of vengeful destruction. It’s a rare look at one of World of Warcraft's most famous characters from before she began her seemingly endless pendulum swing between antihero and outright villain.

3 Night Warrior Tyran𒐪de: Priest

Tyrande is an iconic charact𝔍er from World of Warcraft, but the Night War🍸rior Legendary Skin depicts a relatively recent development for her character. She is probably best known for her role as High Priestess of the goddess Selune, and as the Night Warrior, Tyrande becomes a true avatar of her goddess’ wrath.

Tyrande used the power to fight the Horde (apparently, she didn't appreciate them burning down her home), but was eventually forced to give it up before it consumed her completely. The Night Warrior Skin shows Tyrande at her most vengeful; maybe her wrath will give you the boost you need to dominate the ladder.

Tyrande is the only character on this list to not have a minion version o🅘f themselves in the game; most of the others have at least two, while Rafaam takes the crown with three.

2 Rafaam: Warlock ♐

The man of many titles, Rafaam is among the most iconic of Hearthstone’s original characters. As a result, he was a logical choice for the only Legendary Skin representing a character that didn't first appear in World of Warcraft.

This Skin has the ego and flair we’ve c🍸ome to know and love from the Supreme Archeologist, with a mix of self-aggrandizing and ridicule, and topped off with a healthy dose of evil laughter. If you want to show your love for Hearthstone in style, Rafaam is the Legendary Skin for you🎃.

1 ꦡ C’thun: Druid

There really was no other skin that could be at the top of this list. C’Thun might not be to everyone’s taste; some might𝓰 find the prospect of playing as a giant eyeball that pulses when hit more unsettling than entertaining. The Skin is also not particularly on-theme for Druids (not that an ancient Old God of madness fits perfectly with any class).

An explanation for this Skin/Clas🥃s combo was provided by former Hearthstone lead designer Matt London:

"Why Druid? C&rsquꦡꦐo;Thun Druid was my main during Wonders era. Don’t @ me."

Still, if you can get past those minor flaws, C’Thun has a unique style that sets it apart from the other options. The giant, throbbing eye is obviously the main attraction, buꦡt the tentacles and the way this skin turns your attack animation into a laser beam are excellent additions. C’Thun completes the picture with a suitably intimidating voice and creepy voice lines. It sets a high bar for all Legendary Skins going forward.
