We're looking at one important lore character that received a new model recently and new Lich-themed staves from Maldraxxus. This article contains slight spoilers.

Draka

Draka, Thrall's mother, received a new skin in the latest Alpha build, and it appears, we will encounter her in the zone of Maldraxxus along with Kel'Thuzad, and Lady Vashj who also received new models in Build 33978.

So Draka is in Shadowlands, but what about Durotan? What about the alternate one? Does it mean there are separate Shadowlans for each universe, even though there was still supposed to be only one Legion, so Nathrezim could steal infinite numbers of helmets in order to make infinite Lich Kings... Nevermind. Though I do wonder about demons, if they are killed in a way they can't regenerate, are they destroyed for good or do they still go to Shadowlands?

Or if , for example, Garrosh died 35 years ago in Draenor, so does his crimes from Azeroth still count and would he still be punished in the Shadowlands in the case he wasn't in the Maw?

Seems to be only a handful of known characters we shall see again in Shadowlands.  Was hoping to see the whereabouts of Arthas. ?

If there are Shadowlands in alternate universes, then I guess he should be there, but it's unlikely they will ever address this.

Arthas is possibly in the Maw, but we might not meet him, so as Ragingwolf said, there are only a handful of known characters there. Tbh, this Arbiter figure seems to have rather odd rules (if there are any consistent ones at all), Kael's later actions seemed as bad as Arthas', yet he is only sent to do some penitence of sorts, rather than going to the Maw.

The Shadowlands are said to span over all of the worlds, so it think there's only one, but it picked him out because he's the main Garrosh. The difference between Kael and Arthas' choices were that even to the end KT's motives were to help his people(though mixed with greed) and that explains why he's in Revendreth, paying for his personal sins for his people. And Arthas was good at first, but was directly corrupted by one of the Forces of Death and tried to basically wipe out the planet with the Undead, which in itself, could disgrace or harm the Shadowlands with the Lich King's existence.

Was this confirmed anywhere? As for Kael, well he turned to the Burning Legion for "help", fed fel to his people, making then more demon-like. Some have even defected from him because of it, like that Scryers faction in Shattrath. He also nearly summoned Kil'jaeden to Azeroth, so not sure if turning his people into monsters and intending to let millions if not billions die counts as a better choice, although at this point he was almost completely mad (after all, Burning Legion originally created the Scourge, so allying with those who caused the destruction of his homeland didn't sound like a logical decision...).

It was stated on Wowpedia. His goal most of the time was to feed the addiction of his people, but he betrayed Illidan because of his greed and pride in wanting to take the Sunwell for his people. TBH, the Scourge was almost a subfaction by force, not by will, since the Dreadlords were basically babysitters/wardens of the Lich King and Scourge.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
