Identity Enigma #9: Can’t Catch ’em All

by - 9 years ago

While joining your friends at the local tavern might make for an evening of entertainment; meeting new people can be just as rewarding, although maybe a bit dangerous. New faces pop up in the tavern all the time, countless stories are shared among the patrons, and often enough issues will be resolved right then and there. But have you been paying attention to your surroundings? Let’s put your skills of observation and memory to the test and see if you can identify these strangers!


Welcome to Identity Enigma, the new puzzle where it’s your job to identify three Hearthstone Cards based on little clues. The clues can make reference to the card’s ability, its stats, its voice acting, or their flavor text. Maybe I’ll just reference their Warcraft lore, or perhaps just something that has made them notable in Hearthstone. What about having just a silly play on its name? Everything is possible on Identity Enigma!

Who will be the first, to guess all three minions? The stakes are way up as I’ll be handing out a surprise digital gift to the best answer of the week.

Good luck, traveler.

It Runs in the Family

“What’s so funny about Ashenvale forest? They’ll never tell me.”

Blade Testing

“Maybe if we were better prepared these fellows wouldn’t burn us as much.”

On a Silver Platter

“More than a Recruit, but not yet a Knight. This young boy would make for a good waiter.”

    I think I’ve got them! Sorry if this is the wrong format or something… I’m new here 🙂

    The overall theme is uncollectable minions, as hinted by the tag ‘you can’t catch them all’.

    1. This one was the toughest for me… I admit that I had to do a little research. I’ve come up with Laughing Sister summoned from Ysera… she’s an NPC in Ashenvale, she’s laughing of course which prompts the question, and she ‘runs in the family’.

    2. This one is definitely Flame of Azzinoth. They’re fiery beings that come from Illidan Stormrage, who informs us that ‘we are not prepared’. Also, ‘blade testing’ could refer to Illidan’s warglaives.

    3. I think this is Squire, as summoned by the ‘Silver’ Hand Knight. He’s certainly higher rank than a recruit but not quite to the knight level. He’s got the waiter lingo down: ‘ready, sir!’, and he’s served on a ‘Silver’ platter
