Goblins vs Gnomes Releases December 8th!

It's official! Goblins vs Gnomes launches on December 8th in NA, and December 9th in EU!!

Quote from Blizzard

Since the announcement of Goblins vs Gnomes at BlizzCon 2014, we’ve been tinkering away in preparation to bring one of Warcraft’s greatest rivalries to Hearthstone. Today we’re excited to announce that Hearthstone’s very first expansion will be exploding onto game boards starting December 8!

Goblins vs Gnomes adds over 120 new cards to craft, win, or purchase, all featuring the manic mayhem of Azeroth’s most mischievous machinists meeting mind to mind, mech to mech, and tech to tech.

Goblins vs Gnomes cards can be purchased as packs, crafted with dust, or earned in the Arena. Goblins vs Gnomes card packs will work just like the classic card packs that you already know, but they’ll have an explosive new wrapper, and contain all new cards!

The new Goblins vs Gnomes card packs will officially become available for Windows®, Mac®, and iPad® on December 8 in the Americas region (including Southeast Asia and Oceania), and roll out on December 9 to Europe, Korea, Taiwan, and China throughout the day.

Be ready to build up your decks, card-slingers—and get ready for glorious mayhem and delightful surprises!

Goblins vs Gnomes: 61 New Cards

Blizzard released the remaining collectible cards for the Goblins vs Gnomes expansion on the Hearthstone Facebook page. We've added all the cards to our card database, and have all the new cards on display below. You can use our deckbuilder to create decks using all the new cards, or view all the GvG cards on our dedicated page.

This brings the total number of GvG cards up to 134 (including tokens). There are definitely some token cards still missing, but we're looking at the full set of collectible cards if Zeriyah speaks the truth which she says this is the last wave of cards.

Upcoming Balance Changes

Quote from Blizzard

During the development of Goblins vs Gnomes, we kept an eye on the state of game balance as more Hearthstone matches were played with the new cards we introduced with Curse of Naxxramas. After careful consideration we have decided to make balance changes to the following cards: Soulfire (Warlock), Gadgetzan Auctioneer (Neutral), and Flare (Hunter)

The following balance changes will be made in an upcoming patch:

Soulfire now costs 1 (up from 0)

Soulfire, along with fast and powerful minions, allowed Warlock rush decks to get ahead on the board and stay ahead. We’ve upped Soulfire’s mana cost by 1 to slow down the Warlock rush deck just a bit and allow more players time to react and interact against the Warlock.

Gadgetzan Auctioneer now costs 6 (up from 5)

Gadgetzan Auctioneer’s ability allows for a player to potentially draw many cards for little cost. Card draw and card advantage are important to the game—overall, games are less interesting when a player draws their entire deck. This change brings Gadgetzan Auctioneer’s cost more in line with its power level.

Flare now costs 2 (up from 1)

Flare allowed the Hunter an advantage versus decks that revolve around Secrets, while also allowing the Hunter to draw a card for little cost. We want to encourage a variety of decks in Hearthstone. With this change, Flare will continue to be useful against decks playing Secrets, but will be weaker against other decks

We will continue to make balance changes to Hearthstone when we feel they are necessary in order to increase the variety of cards seen at all levels of play, with the goal of making Hearthstone a more fun and interactive game for everyone.

Goblins vs Gnomes Information & Cards

We've launched a dedicated page for Goblins vs Gnomes which contains information on the expansion and has lists of all the new cards we've seen.

I don't like the Gadgetzan change at all. It's a balanced neutral card, it's only OP in Rogue...so here's an idea: NERF ROGUE SPELLS INSTEAD OF A NEUTRAL CARD? derp.

Oh well, whatever. More dust for expansion cards I guess. RIP in peace forever Auctioneer.

Those nerfs. I get the Flare and Soulfire ones, a bit surprised by the auctioneer one. I guess the spare parts push him over the top? Anyway, can't wait for the new stuff on Monday!

These cards leave the new meta even more uncertain than before. It's really hard to tell what's going to happen exactly in the first few weeks of Goblins vs Gnomes - but that's great. Everyone is sick of the old meta anyway.

These new cards are very hit and miss (Some literally, with a lot of the RNG involved.) Overall, it is a cool set though.

I really feel like the change of Gadgetzan was unneeded, especially since they have so many minions that are designed to counter spell based decks. If they were going to change it, they should have done it before Naxx when Miracle Rogue was at it's peak.

Yeah it feels like they rained on the parade with that Gadgetzan nerf... I'm really not excited to play Rogue again even after GvG is released.

Maybe the Trade Prince will bring back some players to the Rogue Class but right now i believe it will be the least played hero!

As an Arena only player: man some of these commons and rares suck hard. (There are good ones ofc, and overall I'm satisfied with the set) Like Flying Machine. We didnt pick thrallmar farseer for a reason... Gnomeregan Infantry is underwhelming as well.

On the other hand, Warlock might rise, ho got some nice stuff.

For some reason there is a warlock card listed under Warrior?

So the wait is over, the date is set and we know all the cards (well probably...)

One more week to wait and the ladder won't be the same at all, or i at least let's hope so.
