Fire Festival Coming On July 6 - Details
Blizzard also gave us a schedule for the whole Fire Festival event that will go live on July 6 and will be available for 3 weeks.
See down below what you can expect each week:
Quote from BlizzardThe Fire Festival is back! This year, Ragnaros is throwing a house party in the Firelands. Everybody’s invited! The Fire Festival will last for three weeks, from July 6 at 10:00 AM PT to July 27 at 10:00 AM PT. Here are some of the activities you’ll be able to enjoy during that time, and some other fun stuff that’s on the horizon:
Legendary Quests
There will be 7 Legendary Fire Festival quests in addition to your normal daily quests. Complete one Legendary quest to unlock the next one! The first six quests will each reward you with a Year of the Phoenix pack, and the last quest will grant you a Druid of the Flame Malfurion Hero skin! These quests will only be granted until 10:00 AM PT on July 27, so don’t show up too late!
The Fire Festival Returns to its Roots!
July 7 – Ragnaros’ Fire Festival Tavern Brawl
Ragnaros has thought it over and decided that there’s nothing more Fire Festival than the Ragnaros’ Fire Festival tavern brawl. Construct a deck to face your opponent while Mini-Rag wreaks havoc on both players! You know, classic house party behavior. Feed Mini-Rag to charge up your emotes with festive fireworks!
July 14 – (Updated) Burndown Brawl
We’ve also updated the Burndown Brawl for a new take on another classic! This time, it’s The Duelist Burndown, and every deck borrows Treasures and a special Hero Power from Duels! Take control of a random deck and the loser of each game will be given their opponent’s deck for the next one. In the end, one deck will emerge as the most dominant of all!
More Fiery Looks with the Eternal Flame Bundle
Malfurion’s not the only one who has picked up a new look in the Firelands! The Eternal Flame Bundle offers the hot new Flamewalker Rexxar and Righteous Inferno Uther hero skins, as well as the Ragnaros card back and alternate Shaman hero! How handsome! The Eternal Flame Bundle will be available from July 6 to July 20, and is limited to one per account.
The Afterparty!
July 27 – The Party Continues with Battlegrounds Cosmetics!
Right after the Fire Festival ends, we’re moving the party over to Battlegrounds! The first-ever Battlegrounds cosmetics go live on July 27 with the Battlegrounds Bundle: Beach Party! The Beach Party includes beach party themed skins for seven different Battlegrounds heroes, as well as the Tikilord Ragnaros alternate Bartender. Tikilord Ragnaros includes a new portrait AND NEW VOICELINES FOR YOUR BATTLEGROUNDS BARTENDER! AMAZING!
Don’t let the party die! Or do. You can also pick up Battleground Heroes: Shadowlands for eight more Battlegrounds hero skins, based on Warcraft’s afterlife. Grab either set, or both, and personalize your Battlegrounds experience to whatever strikes your fancy.
Stay tuned for more Battlegrounds cosmetics, including more alternate Bartenders and more Hero skins, throughout the year!
Next Major Battlegrounds Update
Finally, looks aren’t the only thing being updated in Battlegrounds! In an upcoming content patch, Battlegrounds will get all-new heroes and undergo a major rework of all minion Types. We will be swapping out over 30 existing minions for new ones specifically designed to play off the core fantasy of that Type and re-emphasize how the Types play, giving the entire mode a massive refresh! For instance, Pirates will have a bigger emphasis on amassing Gold and treasure, with new cards like Briny Bootlegger and Nosy Looter.
Keep an eye out for more about the changes that will be coming to Battlegrounds as we get closer to the launch.

2 epic cards and a rare? That's....really bad.
Since you had at least 1 epic guarantee on 10 packs. Not all are lucky to get epic every single pack...
Friendly reminder that you can just play in Casual and get your health down to 15, then concede to complete all the quests.
Wait what. That has to be a joke, right?
Does this also work in Duels? I just left the opponent kill me because I didn't want to risk it and make a new deck
Why would it be a joke? At 15 health or lower the game counts as being played for conceding.
Serious. It's how I completed everything, The game considers being under 15 health as playing a match, so you can concede and complete the quests.
It should count for any game mode that isn't Battlegrounds.
There's no money for you, Blizzard.
This will be the best Pala Skin for a good while....until the third expansion comes along which seems to have a Frozen Throne theme to it, then maybe we get to purchase Deathknight for Pala.
yeah but no custom hero power animation
No male Rogue skin? Ef that druid.
The free Malfurion skin is really nice.
those 10 shaman matches... oh well, did them quick in Tavern Brawl
you get 6 packs for free wich is 600 Gold + an new Hero Skin for free and people still complaining ?
Maybe their point is about complaining in comparison with what we had before?
1800 gold is 18 packs of cards you are giving up, so 54 packs total, -- i.e., nearly $60 worth of cards -- if you buy all three portraits with gold. Waiting to pay gold is an extremely stupid plan if you want the skins and can afford the cash.
If you are free-to-play because you cannot afford to spend cash, you should just do without cosmetic items altogether.
10 matches with shaman for a pack? wtf
70+ hero skins, 27 deck slots...IMAGINE
blizzard greed has no bounds.
dont buy this sheit.
they will give it for free years later for games gold.
so funny they are giving so much attention to BG because streamers love it. but DUELS= fk that...
