Quote from BlizzardA new Hearthstone update has just arrived, featuring the “Doom in the Tomb” Hallow’s End event, Wild cards temporarily returning to Standard, portrait rewards for dedicated Hearthstone players, and much more!
New Event - Doom in the Tomb!
Pack your torches and latch your helmets, Heroes. The Headless Horseman has infiltrated Uldum’s deserted desert tombs, outfitted himself with powerful relics, and has set his sights on besting the battling Leagues! The new Doom in the Tomb event starts today, October 8, and will last until October 30. Here’s what’s in store:
- Week 1: Doom in the Tomb, Part 1
Gear up with your favorite member from the League of E.V.I.L and delve into the Haunted Temple, full of the baddest bosses in Uldum! The clock is running, too – race to set the record for the fastest Temple run!
- Rewards
- Complete a run in under 1 hour and earn a Rastakhan’s Rumble Card Pack.
- Complete a run in under 40 minutes to earn a Golden Common Ancient Mysteries!
- Week 2: Doom in the Tomb, Part 2
E.V.I.L has their turn, and now it’s up to Reno and the League of Explorers to join the run and flex their Temple diving speed. New enemies and challenges await!
Rewards
- Complete a run in under 1 hour and receive a Golden Common Temple Berserker
- Complete a run in under 40 minutes to earn a Golden Rare Generous Mummy
- Week 3: The Haunted Carousel
Get ready for the big mix-up! In this Tavern Brawl, you’ll need to strategize around minions constantly rotating board positions – all while controlling the Horseman’s time-shifted Dreadsteeds!
Rewards
- Summon 100 Dreadsteeds to earn a Rise of Shadows Card Pack
Dual-Class Heroes
The Dual-Class Arena Hallow’s Eve dress-up party is back! When you start an Arena run during the Doom in the Tomb event, you’ll choose a Hero, then a Hero Power, and card offerings will feature cards from BOTH of those classes, in addition to neutral cards.
- Players who have an active Arena run when this begins will have their current run ended and will receive an Arena Ticket as compensation.
- To ensure that players have a chance to try out this devilish dual-class deck-building dress-up party, anyone who logs in during each of the first two weeks will receive one Arena Ticket per week!
- This event coincides with our normal Arena rotation. The new Arena sets in rotation are as follows:
- Curse of Naxxramas
- Goblins vs. Gnomes
- Blackrock Mountain
- The Grand Tournament
- League of Explorers
- Whispers of the Old Gods
- One Night in Karazhan
- Mean Streets of Gadgetzan
- Journey to Un'Goro
- Knights of the Frozen Throne
- Kobolds & Catacombs
Hex & Flex Bundles
Hex Bundle
- If you thought the League of E.V.I.L. was securely under wraps, think again! Arch-Villain Rafaam has leveraged his lackeys and put together the Hex Bundle, 20 Rise of Shadows card packs and a random Rise of Shadows Legendary card at the discounted price of $19.99 USD.
Flex Bundle
- Reno’s vest just doesn’t have room for bulging biceps AND stacks of card packs. That’s why he’s whipped together the Flex Bundle! Get 20 Saviors of Uldum packs and a random Saviors of Uldum Legendary card at the discounted price of $19.99 USD.
Standard Shake-Up
Starting with today’s patch and lasting until our next major update, 23 cards from across Hearthstone history are temporarily stepping out of Wild and back into Standard. To ensure that everyone can participate in this meta-mixing event, we’ll be granting everyone free copies of each card (these copies cannot be disenchanted or crafted) so they can add these heavy-hitters to their decks and get straight into the action. These cards will be considered "event" cards, which essentially means that they're temporary copies and not permanent additions to your collection. Even if you already own the cards you'll still receive these event copies, and when the event ends they'll disappear.
IMPORTANT NOTE: While these cards were re-introduced during the Doom in the Tomb event, they will remain in Standard past the event's conclusion, until the launch of our next major update. More details will be shared, including exact end dates and times, in the coming weeks.

- [Mobile] Memory optimizations have been made. Ghost card FX adjusted to reduce memory.
- [iOS] Collection manager animations disabled on devices with 1.5GB RAM or less.
Me too, but King Anduin... can't make him my favorite.
I have 1000+ wins as Warlock. The portrait seems available to me in the interface, but "make favorite" button doesn't do anything. Any community support is more than welcome.
Anyone having the feeling arena wins are nout counting towards the 1k needed????
Whoever thought it would be funny to bring Flamewaker back into standard needs a swift kick in the nuts! Can't have this level of stupid in our gene pool.
this game artwork is getting worse each expansion since 2016...
I couldn't agree more.
@NoSpoon22: they popped up after the brawl was opened 😁👌
I wonder if they'll take the portraits from us if we support Hong Kong's liberation...
My favorite class is warrior and I'm a little disappointed we didn't get an epic portrait like the other ones :/
Don't feel too bad. Look at Hunter O_o
Valeerraaa !!
Although I generally love the idea, I don't get it why they did not give the 23 wild cards to everyone immediately.
Edit: they became available after the opening of the brawl. 😁👍
They did, didn't they? I didn't have to do anything to get them
@Fulantsuu
They did! If you look through (or search) your Standard cards in your in-game collection you will be able to find all 23 of them.
Some of these artworks looks like old Warcraft 2 art
I have slightly more than10k wins with Paladin (you know, when secret paladin was a monster?
Hey Blizzard. Thanks for the new heroes and quest, but I don't like wild. There is a reason that these cards are not in standard...If I want to play wild, I do so, now I am stuck with this for the next few weeks. A lot of people playing the same decks already
Isn`t the duel class arena supposed to use the hallows end portraits? I`m only able to use the basic ones.
Don't forget the hearthpwn stable to any complaint at all "take it to the salt thread".
It won't me allow to change the hero portrait. As soon as I go back to the main page, it changes back to the old portrait.
