29.N0 Patch Notes

This patch, coming when you least expect it, includes updates to Standard, Wild, Battlegrounds, and more!

Shadowstep

Freebird

Living Prairie

Introducing our bouldist hero skin yet: the Boulderfist Ogre Hero Skin! It’s all ogre now.

When we announced the upcoming Battlegrounds Duos, we were really excited to see the positive response from the community. Players who tried the mode had a lot of fun playing with their friends. We’ve spent the last few months polishing the Mode for launch and we realized: if playing as a pair is fun, then playing as a team of eight would be four times as fun!

So, instead of Battlegrounds Duos, we’ll be launching Battlegrounds Octuples! In Battlegrounds Octuples, you team up with 7 other players to hang out in Bob’s Tavern. Now, everyone’s a winner!

Snake Eyes

Jeff is a big Hearthstone fan, coming to us from the Marketing team as part of a cross-team internship program. A little bit about Jeff: he’s an avid rock collector, an amateur toothpaste historian, and a Control Priest aficionado. Everyone say, “Hi Jeff!”

As part of Jeff’s internship, he’s designed and implemented some of the changes in this patch.

Psychic Scream

Mindrender Illucia

Worgen Greaser

Boulderfist Ogre

In celebration of 10 years of Hearthstone, upon login all players will be shown a replay of all the Hearthstone games they’ve ever played—cementing Hearthstone’s place for another 10 years to come!

Dev Comment: To make sure you don’t miss anything, the replay will play at .5 speed and will pick up where it left off if your client is accidentally closed while it plays.

Bet you didn’t expect this here.
