Hearthstone's Battlegrounds Season 9: A Cosmic Overhaul
Get ready for a celestial shake-up! Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9 launches December 3rd, bringing a universe of changes. Prepare for a revamped Tavern, cosmic themes, and cutting-edge technology.
Key Changes:
Bob's Technotavern receives a major upgrade. Season 9 resets ratings and bids farewell to Trinkets, replacing them with Battlegrounds Tokens. These tokens allow you to reroll your hero selection at the hero screen, offering a lifeline if your initial choices are underwhelming.
Reveal Schedule:
- November 20th: Naga and Dragon reveals.
- November 21st: Quilboar and Beast reveals.
- November 22nd: Pirate and Duos-only reveals.
- November 25th: Murloc and Demon reveals.
- November 26th: Elemental and Undead reveals.
- December 2nd: Preview event streams and 31.2 patch notes release.
New Additions and Tweaks:
Three new heroes join the fray, with Farseer Nobundo already generating excitement. Nearly 90 minions and Tavern spells are entering or leaving the pools, significantly altering gameplay strategies.
A damage cap adjustment impacts solo Battlegrounds: Early-game damage is capped at 5, increasing to 10 on turn 4 and 15 on turn 8. However, this cap is removed once you reach the top 4.
Minion Rollout:
- December 3rd: Beasts, Dragons, Quilboar, Pirates, Naga, and Mechs enter the game.
- December 5th: Murlocs and Demons join the minion pool.
- December 9th: Undead and Elementals are added.
