This patch will include our big Battlegrounds update, balance changes for Standard and Wild, new Mercs, a huge Duels update, and more!
Nerfs apparently got datamined.
Sorc app to 4 mana
Rapid fire to 2 mana but becomes 2 damage
Incanter's flow to 4 mana
Cloak of shadows to 4 mana
Something's getting nerfed with pirate quest. Appears 2nd stage will require 1 more pirate.
Rokara hero card going to gain 10 armor
Scabbs going to 8 mana
Gnoll going to 6 mana and losing 1 attack.
nobody cares about BGs. The only reason they do this Sh't is for STreamers.. they LOOOOVE them streamers. They bring in the money and so on.. Just put out the patch for nerfs NOW
You know that Battleground is the most played mode in hearthstone, right?
And that all other modes, especially Standard and Wild, heavily lost players, right?
I mean, I certainly don't care about BG. But it is insanely popular my dude.
I don't care about Fortnite either but I'm not going to whine when they do reveals for their subscriber base
Beats me how a pure rng could be popular at all.
Dual class heroes for Duels maybe?
Lol wait you went back it read it then proceeded to copy/paste it and still think you're correct?
Damn, the hills some people pick to die on.
they should like Mtg give each minion a tribe and class...
After what happened when MtG did it, in the name of the flying spaghetti monster, Please, just NO! And not because of BGs, but because it'd drip to constructed, which is bad enough without hoomans added.
Totems, please, and good ones, ffs, thank you (:
Yep, humans (o undead) will make it silly in Hearthstone
There are many small tribes that can be fun - plants, oozes, spirits which can work both in constructed and battlegrounds
If I had to assume... Human for sure. There are plenty of Humans in BGs now.

Who cares, seriously?
Couldn’t agree more! Was going to post exactly the same… the funny thing is that people are acting like this has never happened before not realising it’s part of this -now dead - game, and they think that it will solve all their ladder problems lol
But you two have the urge to post bullshit like this, so you either care or have a real bad mental problem that you need to tell people your opinion (mostly common psychic disorder when people received no attention from their parents when they were children, funfact.)
How tf is it dead? The fucking game has 20 million hours watched on Twitch last month and has had a MAU increase for the last three xpacs.
Y'all have absolutely no idea what "dead" means. It certainly doesn't mean "a game that brings in hundreds of millions of dollars a year".
New Mercs!
Now do you care?
I'd bet a sizeable amont on Arena being the most popular secondary game mode with of all its flaws (except for BGs and constructed, of course).
"New mercs" lol
Nobody cares about "new mercs", especially when it's so painful to grind them. What mercenaries need is global gameplay rework, and additional game modes. Until those would be introduced, mercs are doomed to remaind dead.
I don't have info on purchases that blizzard have, but do anyone really buy merc merchandize? At this point, i'm positive that blizzard think "Okay, that was major miss. Lets try to sell as much packs as we can, as expensive as we can, so we can reclaim some funds out of that failed project". But do people really buy those? I still doing some dailies just in case when the mode would finally being refurbushed, so i would be able to play with "amassed wealth". But at this point, i almost entirely lost any hope that they even plan to do anything other than "Oh, hey, we draw another picture, so new merc available, buy ours 50 packs, so you can acquire it!". I'm actually disgusted at this point...
