Hearthstone battlegrounds cards Patch#
Signature is a new cosmetic quality (like Golden or Diamond) that cards can have, starting with Patch 25.0, featuring full-art images! Signature cards can’t be crafted or disenchanted they can only be opened in packs or obtained through special means. In testing, we were frequently seeing Ice Revenants at game-ending sizes as early as turn 4, and the card was simply overshadowing many of the new and exciting things in the set.
New: Whenever you cast a Frost spell, gain +1/+1.ĭev Comment: The nerf to Ice Revenant might appear out of place, but it feels like a necessary one in a world where Death Knight has access to multiple cheap Frost spells (like Horn of Winter). Old: Whenever you cast a Frost spell, gain +2/+2. Our aim with this second change is to lower the card’s play rate to ensure that the release of Death Knight is as fun as possible for players with a wide variety of interests and experience levels. Theotar’s play rate did not drop as far as we would have liked it to with the smaller change, and is still higher than we would like it to be leading into March of the Lich King. Knowing the importance of this new class release, our plan with Theotar was to test out a smaller change to the card (from 4 to 5 mana in Patch 24.4.3) before potentially moving for a larger change if necessary. Card Updatesĭev Comment: The release of a new class is an incredibly exciting moment for Hearthstone players everywhere, and a moment that we want to be as enjoyable and accessible as possible. Reborn is commonly featured on Undead minions, but you might occasionally see it on other cards as well. Minions with Reborn return to life with 1 Health the first time they die. The Reborn keyword is making its return in March of the Lich King, and it will become a keyword we regularly use going forward. Some past and new minions will now feature two minion types, such as Undead Dragons and Demon Pirates. With the addition of Undead, we’ve also added Dual-Type Minions so that we can best capture the essence of these minions. Undead Invade the TavernĪ new minion type has been added with March of the Lich King, Undead! Hundreds of minions from past card sets have been given the new Undead type, along with an army of minions in this expansion. With the launch of March of the Lich King comes a new Rewards Track with tons of cosmetics, XP boosts, packs, and a huge infusion of Gold! Check out our Rewards Track Refresh blog tomorrow for details.
