NEW FEATURE – BATTLEGROUNDS PARTIES
With the introduction of Battlegrounds Parties on September 8, players will be able to queue up for Battlegrounds matches with more than one other player! Battlegrounds Parties will allow groups of players to queue Battlegrounds together, and it supports a full lobby for private games!
Here’s how it works:
- Up to 4 players will be able to queue for a normal ranked Battlegrounds match together.
- Once the group lobby exceeds 4 players, the game type will automatically switch to a private Battlegrounds match for 5-8 players.
Climb in rating with a handful of friends or invite the whole family to determine, once and for all, who is the true Battlegrounds pro of the bunch!
NEW HEROES
Lord Barov
- Friendly Wager [Cost 1]
- Guess which player will win their next combat. If they win, get three Coins.
Jandice Barov
- Swap, Lock, & Shop It [Cost 0]
- Swap a friendly non-golden minion with a random one in Bob’s Tavern.
Forest Warden Omu
- Everbloom [Passive]
- After you upgrade Bob’s Tavern, gain 2 Gold this turn only.
Players with Battlegrounds Perks will have early access to these new Heroes before they are formally released on September 22.
NEW MINION
Micro Mummy
- [Tier 1, Mech] 1 Attack, 2 Health
- Reborn. At the end of your turn, give another random friendly minion +1 Attack.
UPDATED MINION
Pack Leader

REMOVED MINION
- Mecharoo has been removed from the Battlegrounds minion pool.
What if I guess right with Barov's hero power on 10 gold? Will I receive 3 extra in that case?
Read it again. You get three COINS. The card, Coin.
oh ty I'm sorry
I think it's more of a buff than a nerf, hence no extra dust.
I mean, no body is playing this card for the base stats. They are playing it for the 'Battlecry'. Since the card can now come out into play one turn earlier, it's sort of a buff.
JMO
I hope, I'll get dust for Willow.
UPD: nope, I didn't .
why don't we get full 1600 dust for Willow? Thanks.
Hm I am not being offered the full dust refund even for the cards that clearly have been nerfed like Cabal Acolyte and Secret Passage. Anybody else with that issue?
i had the fortune of thinking that the warlock legendary was nerfed and not buffed , so i disenchanted it without even looking
and now i'm crying
I don't understand how anyone could read those changes as a nerf.
Number not as big! Must be nerf
well actually i thought the change was a buff nerf so i thought they would count it as a nerf like a positive *negative nets you a negative
It is actually this site's fault for not describing correctly the changes in the patch.
When it's going to be live on phones ?
got around 2k dust
golden dark glare
cabal
dunno if i will disenchant golden totem golem
Totem Goliath has been buffed so don't DE it as you won't get full dust value;)
hahahhaahahhhhhahhahhahhha
Uhhhhhhh....what lol
It actually is right in the middle of tier 2. 51.5% winrate.
ahhh.... finally darglare warlock goes to destination fucked
Why do they bother to put release times when it's never on time? It should be live in Europe and ofc it's not.
