- On turn 4, 8, 12, and 16, you'll discover 1 out of 3 random spells from a corresponding pool (which you can find down below).
Spells in BGs? Interesting but all it does is add even more rng.
2 thoughts on the spells/tiers:
- Tier 4 spells: we'll hardly see them, what game makes it to turn 16 these days? In the current meta half the players are dead by turn 10.
- Ice Block: No. Just no.
It is so sad that they are making battlegrounds worse. Spells are realy bad for balance, it is adding extra RNG to game and it is unfortunate.
Didn't think it was possible but they are making battlegrounds worse.
Not balanced
This doesn't look remotely balanced. Some treasures are clearly far more powerful than others.
Why they picked Thijs, the most antipatic streamer over Dog or Savj??? He's not even playing BG.
Ok... so standard nerfs when
Now.
Lmfaooooo Ice Block in Battlegrounds, nice
I don't see this ending well. Did BG really need spells? These already seem horribly unbalanced just like in Duals.
Spells are a limited time thing. Only the really later ones seem particularly game winning. I think it's fine for a certain amount of time.
I wish they used the old art for the Old Gods...

16? Yeah sure, that wont happen, unless there is a super tied match, but with all this spells the highroll potential could make the games even shorter
Seems like it’s going to be hard to balance all this
So, Argent Braggart will be a pain in the ass in battlegrounds too.
Also, it's apparently now a spell somehow.
1/1 poisonous.
cautiously optimistic about this
