Hearthstone Revamps Battlegrounds with Season 9 Update

Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9: Cosmic Overhaul Arrives December 3rd!

Get ready for a celestial shake-up! Hearthstone's Battlegrounds mode is launching Season 9 on December 3rd, bringing a universe of changes. Expect a revamped minion lineup, flashy new tech, and a cosmic theme that'll leave you starstruck.

Key Changes:

  • Bob's Technotavern Overhaul: Prepare for a complete refresh of Bob's shop! This season resets ratings and eliminates Trinkets, replacing them with exciting new Battlegrounds Tokens.
  • Battlegrounds Tokens: Use these tokens during hero selection to reroll your hero options. No more settling for undesirable heroes!
  • New Heroes: Three brand-new heroes are joining the fray, with Farseer Nobundo already generating considerable buzz with his unique abilities.
  • Minion Pool Revamp: Nearly 90 minions and Tavern spells are entering or leaving the pool, dramatically altering gameplay strategies.
  • Damage Cap Adjustment (Solo): Solo Battlegrounds games will feature a modified damage cap: 5 damage in the early game, increasing to 10 on turn 4 and 15 on turn 8. This cap is removed once you reach the top 4.
  • Phased Minion Releases: The update will roll out minions in phases:
    • December 3rd: Beasts, Dragons, Quilboar, Pirates, Naga, and Mechs.
    • December 5th: Murlocs and Demons.
    • December 9th: Undead and Elementals.
