Until those modes get substantially more popular, I'm not going to break down the additions in detail though-you can find them in full with the patch notes (opens in new tab). There are a raft of changes coming to the Duels and Mercenaries modes too, with the latter getting a whole new zone as well as more Mercenaries to level up. The change to Sorcerer's Apprentice does look like a full-on murder though, which should please everyone except Wild Mage mains. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure that a 1-Mana bump does enough to stop Shadowcrafter Scabbs' blanket board removal from being an incredibly frustrating effect. Rokara the Valorous: Now grants 10 armor rather than 5.Īs usual, the cards which have had their power adjusted down will be eligible for a full dust refund (for a limited amount of time) once the changes take effect.Rapid Fire: Cost increased from 1 to 2, damage increased from 1 to 2.Sorcerer’s Apprentice: Cost increased from 2 to 4.Incanter's Flow: Cost increased from 3 to 4.Raid the Docks: Step two requires you to play three Pirates rather than two.Cloak of Shadows: Cost increased from 3 to 4.
Wildpaw Gnoll: Cost increased from 5 to 6, Attack reduced from 4 to 3.Shadowcrafter Scabbs: Cost increased from 7 to 8.
BUDDY MEETER PLUS
Here's a list of the cards being changed when 22.2 lands, which also includes some nerfs aimed at reining in egregiously powerful decks in Wild, plus a solitary buff to a notably underperforming Hero card. Meanwhile, back in Standard, Team 5 is finally taking the nerfhammer to a meta so dominated by a single class that it's widely been called Roguestone. Completely fill the meter, and you'll get another two Buddies, creating a golden version if you still have the first Buddy in hand.īlizzard explains: "After both sections have been filled, the Buddy Meter breaks and is no longer available for the rest of the match (regardless of whether you tripled your Buddy or sold any copies off along the way)." It sounds weird, but it's actually pretty simple. Once the meter is half full you receive your first Buddy. Instead, you get your Buddy by filling up a meter, which is done by performing specific actions (popping Divine Shields, for example) over the course of a game. The thrust of those this week has been the announcement of Battlegrounds "Buddies", which will go live with patch 22.2 on Tuesday, January 25.īuddies are a new mechanic, and every Hero will have its own Buddy card which can't be acquired from the shop. Blizzard has even taken to giving Battlegrounds its own pre-release cycle with content creators doing exclusive reveals. So the big patch that follows a new card set has become the more exciting drop to me. Like seemingly much of the Hearthstone playerbase (opens in new tab), I consider myself a Battlegrounds main these days.
Patch 22.2 will bring changes to all Hearthstone's main modes, but the focus is on Battlegrounds.
