Medivh Card Back

We got an early look at the Medivh card back the other day thanks to the Korean Hearthstone website. Check it out below.


Tavern Brawl - Non-Obtainable Cards in Premade Decks

It looks like premade decks used in certain Tavern Brawls could include cards which you can't normally obtain in-game. For more clarifications on the new gamemode, visit main Tavern Brawl announcement post

Quote from Daxxarri

Is there any new card content planned to release with Tavern Brawl mode?
No new collectible content, but pre-made Brawl decks could include cards otherwise unavailable. (Daxxarri)
Are we talking boss encounter cards or just cards I don't have in my collection?
We're talking cards you wouldn't get to play outside of a Brawl. (Daxxarri)

You guys should have polls to bring the favorites brawls theme after a few months.
We'll definitely be paying attention to which Brawls you all enjoy the most. (Daxxarri)


Player Deck Slot Statistics

Ben Brode posted some interesting stats about deck slots over on reddit. This comes after his tweet which mentioned they were working towards more deck slots, but most players don't even have 9 slots filled.

Quote from Ben Brode

Seems like you guys are interested in more statistics, so here you go! Keep in mind these aren't related to any decision-making regarding deck slots. I just mentioned the stats because I don't think it's super healthy when a single person represents themselves as "everyone". The truth is there are lots of types of players.

  • Players with 9 decks (among players who have been active in the last 30 days): 33%
  • Players with 7-8 decks: 18%
  • Players with 1-6 decks: 49%
