** When Team 5 decided to merge ALL of the Classic set with the Hall of Fame and rotate it to Wild, then create a new, annually-rotating Core set consisting of cards both old and new alike, they had some decisions to make. Among them? Magma Rager was rotated out... and Ice Rager was rotated back in. On the one hand, it's sad to see Magma Rager usurped by its [[JustForPun cooler]] cousin, but on the other hand, the irony is so palpable, one can only imagine the collective laugh the team had after making the swap.

He has a ''Scourgelord Dazzik'' in his deck, that copies all of Scourgelord Garrosh's emotes. That's a hell of a lot of effort for a literal ZeroEffortBoss.

* The announcement for the Caverns of Time set was a pretty hype moment, but it had a few funny things snuck in there:
** A lot of people burst out laughing at Flame Lance's new effect: "Deal [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill 25 damage]] to a minion." It's a bit of a step up from only dealing 8.
** Worgen Greaser was a memetically bad 4 mana 6/3 VanillaUnit, that was so lambasted that Blizzard promised to print more interesting cards going forward. For an AprilFools joke in 2022, the card was secretly buffed to a 6/4. Now with this announcement, it was buffed again into a '''6/5''', which is ''huge'' for a 4-drop.
