Update on Patch 15.6 Issues - Heroes on Sale - Free Tyrande Hero skin
Blizzard posted this update about the ongoing issues for Mobile users and the newly introduced issues with Patch 15.6:
Quote from BlizzardHey Folks,
In the latest 15.6 patch, Battlegrounds was launched into Early Access. Unfortunately, some bugs also made it into the live game, and the team has been hard at work making sure these get fixed as quickly as possible. Here’s a status update on things:
On Monday (or potentially Tuesday), we’re aiming to ship a 15.6.2 patch that will include the following:
- Squelch working as intended + no longer causing crashes under certain circumstances
- Daily Quests can now be rerolled
- Hallow’s End Arena Daily Quest can now be completed
- A variety of Android crashes have been fixed
- Memory optimization for Battlegrounds for devices with less than 2GB of RAM
Here are some things that have been resolved with a server patch (meaning you don’t have to download it) that’s already live:
- Spells now trigger Overkill effects
- Sathrovarr can now no longer target enemy minions with its Battlecry
- New Daily Quests can be obtained
- Big Boss Battle Quest can now be completed by just playing two matches and should only be accessible by players with Battlegrounds access
The team is continuing to investigate the following issues:
- Login issues
- Friends List appearing empty
- Decks missing cards / appearing incomplete
- Samsung Galaxy Note devices not being able to use the phone’s S-Pen stylus
- Unable to re-add a card back into a deck (workaround: remove the ghosted card and then attempt it)
If you encounter other problems, please let us know in the comments below. We appreciate you bearing with us and we’re sorry for the rockiness. Once we have info on the remaining issues, we’ll be sure to update this thread.
Cheers,
Chris_Attalus
Hero Skins on Sale
Blizzard also updated us that the current discount ($9.99/9.99 euro to $6.99/6.99 euro) on the Medivh, Aleria and Magni Heroes runs through December 9th.
Free Tyrande Hero Skin
Finally, Blizzard also made some statements about the oft hinted at return of the Tyrande skin. They have both said that it will be given away for FREE and that this is planned for somewhere in December.
Tyrande Whisperwind Cardback and Hero Portrait

Learn more and see all the cards in our dedicated expansion guide.
One might even go so far as to say... you're annoyed...? XD
I have it and it's terrible as you cannot actually be nice to someone with it. Every emote is trolling. I switched to Arthas.

Having timed exclusives doesn't mean much if they are brought back and given out freely . Having those rare / aged skins or cardbacks is a way to show dedication to the game. Rather than discourage players who got the exclusive, new skins should be made and distributed. Then if players keep at the game for another year or two they can also have rare exclusive skins.
You are special kid arent you? You had your time with those skins. Blizzard wants everyone to enjoy those awesome skins. Not only you
I just assume that of any gamer who insists a new update or change is "a punch in the face".
"spells now trigger overkill effects" - incoming overkill spells next expansion
Mague 5 mana deal 2 damage to all minions if you overkill a minion add one mage spell :)
They exist
mage, hunter and chaman have overkill spell dude.....
Finally no more annoying Anduin
"planned for somewhere in December." Happy Feast of winter veil everybody!!
"Decks missing cards / appearing incomplete"
This.... I fix the broken deck in question, play games with it, then when I come back later to play some more it happens all over again!
Why not Khadgar:(
We want also Khadgar too.
next year meaby
Well, there goes the special feeling when playing as Tyrande, soon we will see more of her than Anduin I guess.
I already had Twitch Prime back then, but I know it was often tedious and stressful for people to get that prime thing going to finally get Tyrande. I feel bad for these people now.
Of course it's objectively nice from Blizzard to do that, but at least give the players who already own her something as a little gift, as a sign of appreciation.
And btw I'm TOTALLY against giving away Khadgar for free. I mean what the hell, it was for sale and there are a lot of people who paid for it. Now these people should be punished for buying it in this little time frame we had back then?
Just no.
I mean that's just like me wanting something for free for which other people paid, it's just not fair and doesn't make sense.
They can of course sell him again for the same amount, no problem with that. Or give the players who bought him back then a compensation of the same value.
Maybe packs or giving away one of the heroes which are on sale right now, I don't know.
In conclusion, giving away Khadgar FOR FREE would be a big punch in the face for a lot of players.
Can't log in due to the issue that Hearthstone is updated, but I can't update HS via App Store..
Aah, I wish I could get Sir Annoy-O instead ;)
I kick myself every day for not getting Sir Annoy-O :D
It’s kinda a harsh notice no bueno for the people who owns tyrande, I only bought amazon prime for It! and it’s said prime exclusive and now it will be free , okay but give us mech jaraxus or another hero who is unobtainable anymore .
And now people is asking for free khadgar it cost us and was exclusive for people who help the panda forest organization
blizzard hope you guys do something about it, Golden portrait for tyrande owners and re sell the old heros skins from pre purchase
That is my humble opinion anyone can agree or disagree
Peace
Some people were region locked out of Prime. Stop being self-centred and let others have some fun for once.
