Mercenaries

In this patch Team 5 also added some new unfinished mercenaries, textures, etc. They probably won't be available ever (except certain minions that are supposed to be for solo content), because this mode is supposed to not get any updates in the future, but at least we can take a look at them and debate if they'd be good, right?

Mercenaries Art


New improvement - Battlegrounds Battle Bash timer

Battlegrounds Battle Bash now displays a timer telling you how much time you have before this current Battle Bash ends.

[Click on the image to enlarge it]


New improvement - Pack-opening menu

After a long time we got the shop icon back in the pack-opening menu! This icon got removed a while ago and now it's back.

We now also have a new stone-like texture sitting in the slot for opening packs if you have no packs to open or you can't open them.


New improvement - Golden packs for gold

We are now able to buy golden packs as well as signature golden packs for Gold!


New improvement - Token cards or older expansions

You're now able to see token cards in the collection manager for older expansions as well as all the new ones! Now you can view over 600 cards and their token cards right in your collection manager!


Skaterbot in the Core Set?

It looks like Skaterbot somehow snuck its way into the core set, even though he shouldn't be there. He's probably going to be hidden in the game, but potentially could replace one of the lowest-playable magnetic cards in the future since now Team 5 are willing to rotate out and in cards mid-year.


Inzah's & Hedanis' Hero Power animation fixed

In this patch Inzah's & Hedanis' Hero Power animation got fixed, so if you're curious, here you can see how they look now.


New interesting cards?

A few new unknown cards got added into the game with this patch, probably for a Tavern Brawl, Puzzle or Solo Content, but they look interesting nevertheless!


April Fools joke

This year we got pineapple on the pizza card back as an April Fools joke. Should it get reverted or not? :-)


This is the 3rd article of this style, we're still trying to improve things and this time, for example, we manually rendered all the animations in 4K resolution and 60 FPS for the best possible experience! But if you have any ideas for improvements, please let us know!
