Mean Streets of Gadgetzan is the fourth Hearthstone card expansion. It was announced on Friday, November 4th, 2016 at BlizzCon. Expansion launches early December.

The expansion includes 132 new collectible cards, which can be purchased for real money or gold through a new card pack, or crafted through the use of Arcane Dust.

Expansion Information

We've organized all the facts about Mean Streets of Gadgetzan below.

Mean Streets of Gadgetzan is the title of Hearthstone's fourth expansion.
There are three crime families that run everything in Gadgetzan.
- The Grimy Goons are the brutes and enforcers of Gadgetzan.
- The Jade Lotus
- The Kabal are spellcasters.
There are Multi-Class Cards! Only 9 cards in the expansion are multi-class.
- Grimy Goons: Hunter, Paladin, Warrior
- Kabal: Mage, Priest, Warlock
- Jade Lotus: Druid, Rogue, Shaman
The Jade Golem Mechanic!
- This is a special mechanic on Jade Lotus flavoured cards.
- Jade Golem gains attack and health based on how many Jade Golems you've summoned.
- If you've played four Jade Golems this game, the fifth one will be 5/5.
The game board features all three of the battling factions.
The expansion contains 132 new cards.
The expansion launches in early December.
There is no pre-order card back this time around, but you can still pre-order on Battle.net.
If you choose to pre-order on Battle.net, you get 10 extra packs. 50 packs for $49.99 USD instead of the usual 40.
This expansion is not the start of a new Standard year. No old sets are being rotated out of Standard, that will be the set after Mean Streets of Gadgetzan!

Jade Golems gone. Only UI left to remove forever and restore Druid's identity.

When the Gadgetzan Mistake rotates to Wild, Standard might finally become the less cancerous mode it was supposed to be. Part of me wants to reinstall HS just to see the game without this abomination.

This expansion ruins every other it touches, and every expansion from now on will be far less relevant than it should be just because of Patches, Jades and Raza. (unless Blizzard somehow tops their powerlevel, which is a bad move on its own. Blizzard could also let Wild players ban expansions, but that's probably too much work for a mode they don't care about)

A bit too late in many's eyes, but they actually fixed Patches and Raza! Goes to show they actually do care about wild mode. Jades, on the other hand, remains untouched...

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised about that and stand corrected. I couldn't have been more surprised to see nerfs aimed towards Wild mode, but I'm sure glad they did it! Otherwise I'd highly doubt Wild would be anything but Razakus vs Cubelock with the occasional aggro deck with Patches.

A great theme with the three gangs but the Jade mechanic ruined it. I wish handbuffs had worked out. :/

Defidently my least favorite expansion. Kun The Forgotten King and Kazakus were cool, but most of the other legendaries felt really lacking. :P

Polar opposite. Especially how these ruined Druid's identity for 2 years.

The expansion that gave us Jade Druid and Pirate Warrior. The most cancerous of all.

The idea of jade golens was nice ... but the other two gangs, lacked something more.

I wanted to see more cards of the race of the rabbit xD

Jade Druid is probably the biggest mistake of this set, but otherwise it's a really good one.
