New Card Backs
Two new card backs have been added.
- Shado-pan Card Back
- Long ago, this card back took up its sacred duty to keep negative emotions from overrunning your board. Though mysterious, it is highly effective.
- Rewarded for July 2019 Ranked Play
- Stolen Thunder
- The hardest part of stealing thunder is getting away with it quietly.
- Sourced from an upcoming "authorized promotion".
- The patch notes state this is rewarded for "purchasing the Masters Bundle"
Matchmaking Improvements
- We've implemented a new feature to reduce chances of matching against the same player and same class multiple times in a row. Some exceptions may occur when players have few matchmaking options near their rank.

No dust refounds for buffed cards???
After the updates I miss all the heroic and pre-order card backs. Oh, and the ones from twitch
lol
Summoning portal + Mechwarper does it for 5 mana instead of 7
This is some solid bullshittery in wild. Just tried 10 games with Sn1p Sn4p + Summoning portal, got the infinite combo off in 7 / 10 games, all before turn 8.
Edit: 10 / 13 games. This is definitely the best deck I have ever played in 5 years of HS.
I can confirm. I played only one game so far (LOL), but got the combo on turn 7.
I know you need some things to go "right", but they should look at making sure that SN1P-SN4P can NEVER go below a cost of 1, even if they need to make changes to the text on SN1P-SN4P itself.
And yes, I know it's Wild, which doesn't count as a format ; ) but this still seems silly to me. Oh well, I guess when you look at all of the other silly sh!t in Wild, maybe this is fine...
ooh. this actually great for people that struggle with lich king since the solo adventures have unlimited time, now you can just buff some 3 taunt mechs with unlimited snip snaps. i say 3 because the 2/8 poisonous spider and the black knight at his deck.
Had 1x got 1600 dust for it! Lucky me!! :D
Have 1x still waiting for nurf
okDalaran Heist adventure is still a bit bugged ... i just fought same boss twice in a row in two runs back to back ... do I need to redownload HS on my phone ... anyone?
Oh boy, warrior buffs. Just what we needed.
Well they buffed some cards... some of the buffed cards seem a bit broken now...
After update, had 2 sets of numbers in upper right part of a lot of decks, for example: 24/30. Anyone know what this is referencing?
Disregard. the pop-up that is supposed to occur after putting finger on it, started working ✌️
Well, even though the numbers are for showing “how many cards you are short from full deck,” all mine are completely wrong. All my decks that had numbers are full, 30 card decks. Guess it was a glitch. Anyone else have this issue? 🤷♂️
Also a few of my decks were deleted! Anyone had this problem?
I had the 28/30 icon on two of my wild decks, but that is it. And no cards were really missing. No decks disappeared for me. Did you maybe create the decks yesterday, when everything was bit wonky, or were these decks created some time ago?
Me too, just open the decks and then close them. It will revert them
I even had this after relogging even after I clicked and saved a few of'm to test, no idea why.
Mine were created some time ago.
