Hearthstone enthusiasts, get ready for an exhilarating update! The much-anticipated Battlegrounds Season 9 is set to launch on December 3rd, bringing a cosmic wave of changes, updates, and fresh features to the game. The new season promises an experience so revamped that it feels like stepping into a newly transformed Tavern, brimming with cosmic vibes and futuristic tech.
What’s in Store?
Bob’s Technotavern is set for a significant upgrade in Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9. Prepare for a ratings reset and bid farewell to Trinkets, as they make way for the exciting new Battlegrounds Tokens. These tokens can be used at the hero selection screen to reroll one of your hero options, providing you with a chance to swap out undesirable choices for something more to your liking.
Before diving into the nitty-gritty details, let's take a look at the reveal and launch schedule for Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9. The Naga and Dragon reveals are happening today, followed by the Quilboar and Beast reveals on November 21st. Pirate and Duos-only reveals are lined up for November 22nd, while Murloc and Demon reveals are scheduled for November 25th. The Elemental and Undead reveals are set for November 26th. Mark your calendars for December 2nd, when preview event streams and the 31.2 patch notes will be released.
What Else Is New?
Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9 introduces three new heroes, with Farseer Nobundo already capturing attention with his Galaxy’s Lens and cosmic flares. Additionally, nearly 90 minions and Tavern spells are set to either join or depart from the pools, ensuring a fresh gameplay experience.
There's also a tweak to the damage cap, but this applies only to solo Battlegrounds games. The early-game damage will be capped at 5, increasing to 10 on turn 4 and 15 on turn 8. Once you're in the top 4, however, the cap is removed, allowing for more intense competition.
The patch officially goes live on December 3rd, introducing Beasts, Dragons, Quilboar, Pirates, Naga, and Mechs to the game. Murlocs and Demons will join the minion pool on December 5th, followed by Undead and Elementals on December 9th.
