Yeah, it is fully understandable. Even Chuck Norris will not be able to fully capture epicness of MW into 140 characters :)

Can we just cast dispell on her? Pretty pretty please? :)

She is revealed! :)

EDIT: Fireweaving was incorrectly stated in the first reveal, this is the correct image.

Fireweaving does not specify whether the object needs to belong to another player, so the Adramalech warlock has a special sort of pseudo-burnproof trait - you can put burns on her, but they will just slide off (and onto whatever she doesn't like). This burnproofiness even extends to her creatures (including non-demons; this would be a nice way to run some zombies without worrying about them burning to death). I foresee her using a lot of fire AOE attacks without concern for herself or friendly creatures (though you want some flame resistance to reduce the damage).

Predictably, Flaming Hellion and Firebrand Imp got a boost. Like AC Warlock, her abilities are better collectively than individually (though Fireweaving turned out a lot more limited than I thought).

Is there going to be a Creative Corner for this, or article of any kind? I always enjoy reading those.

Just so everyone knows, our favorite creative director provided me an updated image with a correction to Fireweaving, I think those that had issues with it may like it more now. :)

Fireweaving WAS she can move a burn marker from an object to another object without a burn marker.

Now she can just move it, even if they already have one.

I like how this Warlock is all about setting the world ablaze and destroying her opponents with fire, but at the same time, she is a much nicer team player than her counterpart. The AC Warlock uses his demon slaves to keep himself alive, while this new Warlock takes care of her pets. She shares her damage boost with them and makes sure to keep them in good health.

In comparison:
Arraxian Crown Warlock = Better with Curses and greater survivability with the Blood Reaper healing and higher innate Life.

Adramelech Warlcok = More powerful demons who live longer and deal more damage plus she has more control over (and reliance on) fire.

My only concern with the new warlock is that she is so reliant on fire that any flame immune or resistant creatures will be very powerful against her. If she is facing another dark caster, then she better get Andramalech out first otherwise she's going to have a long day ahead of her.
