New Special Set: Caverns of Time!
The Infinite Dragonflight is trying to go back in time and change the way the Battle of Ahn’Qiraj went against the Old God C’Thun. The fate of the world—and the true timeline—hangs in the balance! It’s up to you to hold off their attack... or join them instead...
Caverns of Time is a new type of Hearthstone expansion, including card reprints, new cards, and some new card cosmetics! It’s also Hearthstone’s first-ever direct-to-Wild expansion, meaning that the cards in it will not be legal in Standard (and can be balanced towards Wild). Caverns of Time launches on August 31, and it includes 147 cards: 113 buffed reprints* and 34 brand new cards!
Caverns of Times packs can also include special Signature versions of other iconic Wild cards. Keep an eye out for a dedicated Caverns of Time blog, coming August 22, with more details about the 34 new cards, the special Signature variants, and more.
* Duplicate protection applies for these reprints. So, if you already have (or disenchanted) the original versions, you won’t open them again in Caverns of Time packs until you’ve opened all new cards from that rarity.
Wild Card Updates
113 Wild cards are getting buffs with Patch 27.2! These are the cards that are being reprinted as part of the Caverns of Time set. If you already have the cards in your collection from their original release, they will be automatically updated with the patch. If you don’t already have the cards, you can still get them through all current means, or from Caverns of Time packs once the set goes live.
Twist Official Launch
Twist is back! On September 1, at your local ladder reset time, we’ll be kicking off the first official season of Twist. This season will feature the Wonders format, a fun throwback format celebrating the early years of Hearthstone. It includes all expansions from Legacy (not Core or Classic) through Mean Streets of Gadgetzan, plus the new cards from the Caverns of Time set, launching on August 31. That means the legal sets will be:
- Legacy (not Core or Classic)
- Curse of Naxxramas
- Goblins vs Gnomes
- Blackrock Mountain
- The Grand Tournament
- The League of Explorers
- Whispers of the Old Gods
- One Night in Karazhan
- Mean Streets of Gadgetzan
- Caverns of Time
There will be no Demon Hunter or Death Knight classes in this season of Twist, as they didn’t exist during the Wonders era. There’s no special rules modifier for this first Wonders season—the Twist is that you get to use the buffed cards and the brand new cards from Caverns of Time!
Awhile back when legacy/core set was introduced, they didn't adjust the search function to accommodate duplicates that were loaned and owned, meaning if you disenchanted copies > 2, you were losing your owned card as the loaned card appeared in the search. This wasn't portrayed at all, and so a lot of people disenchanted their copies.
I haven‘t disenchanted the originals. I‘m pretty sure. Otherwise I would miss more cards and not just three. I also could spent dust to craft them again, but it sucks anyway.
Bought 10 packs and I opened a new Acolyte of Pain, which is considered a new card while I found my old copies are still there and now I have three. Also, I opened 1 new Blackwing Corruptor, but my total copies are still two, why not three? And I am now missing one copy of King of Beasts, which is a rare card that I should have own it already, because I pre-ordered every expansion and only disenchanted extra cards. It is so weird.
Hey guys, If you noticed, when you get all new cards from this set, you will start inmediatelly receiving the reprinted cards such as new cards (non received). It seems to be too weird at that point Blizzard wants you have no gold for upcoming miniset, so the suggestion is Open only all new commons and craft only new cards if you don't want to invest all your gold, the duplication reprint did not work very well and if you have the older version then it may assumen you need the reskined version instead.

I don't understand your issue here. You had one blade of C'thun and received another, no? Them being listed as different cards is somewhat silly but duplicate protection works.
I mean I was expecting receiving extra dust instead of reopening cards which I already have (i.e. Acolyte of Pain which I already have on my collection as part of forgotten Hall of fame now I just reopened those duplicated cards again instead of receiving a free upgrade of Caverns of time expansion design), does it makes sense now?
For F2P\budget players. My humble opinion:
Patches (Pirate rogue) deck is a steal for anyone who doesn't have it and wants to enter wild. I am serious. 1000 gold worth less than 1600 dust even if you ignore all other cards in the deck.
If you don't have Reno and Brann, you should also consider the Reno priest just for those 2 cards. 3200 gold is fair, especially with all other cards. But it is less likely that you have that gold lying around.
Discard lock. Loatheb and Leeroy are not what they used to be... It would be borderline for me If I didn't have them.
C'Thun Warrior, Jade druid, Jade Shaman - don't touch them. Especially Jade Shaman. 1000 gold for a legendary is not a good deal when it is Aya who will see no play outside Twists.

And if you are ready to spend money and want to kickstart your wild collection from scratch - Battle Ready Deck Bundle 1 is great, Battle Ready Deck bundle 2 is horrible.
Just packed a signature Yogg-Saron in my first Golden pack! So only spent 400 gold for immediate value :)
I just registered to express my dissapointment in that outrages pricing. I think im quitting hearthstone and hope that blizzard as a company will go broke.
Bye bye then 👋
Hmm,,
