Badlands Mini-Set Announced, “Delve Into Deepholm” Launches on January 18

Yesterday, Blizzard revealed the name of the new mini-set and the reveal schedule, so we knew that the full announcement was coming. And here it is!

Showdown in the Badlands mini-set is called “Delve into Deepholm” and it releases next week, on January 18, 2024. It will add 38 new unique cards – 4x Legendary, 1x Epic, 17x Rare, and 16x Common. Just like always, the cards will become available in expansion packs (in this case Badlands packs), but you will also be able to purchase the entire mini-set either for $15 or 2000 Gold. A full-Golden version (including a bonus Diamond Legendary) is also available for $70, or 10,000 Gold.

Card reveals start today and end next week, on January 16 (with a break on the weekend). We’ll post a full list of revealed cards separately.

Learn more about the mini-set from the official blog post below:

Our noble outlaws tried to warn them, but the Bloodrock Mining Co. dug too deep and unearthed a portal to Deepholm in the Elemental Plane. As Therazane fights for her domain, new friends and unlikely allies fight for their lives! Get ready to dig in, this is the Delve into Deepholm!

Delve into Deepholm, launching on January 18, consists of 38 new cards: 4 Legendary cards, 1 Epic card, 17 Rare cards, and 16 Common cards. Those cards can either be opened in Showdown in the Badlands packs or purchased as a complete 72-card set.* Normal versions of the Mini-Set can be purchased for $14.99 or 2000 Gold. The all-Golden version of the Mini-Set can be purchased for $69.99 or 10,000 Gold. The Golden Mini-Set option also includes a bonus Diamond Legendary card!

Includes one copy of each Legendary card and two copies of each other card in the Mini-Set.

The Stonemother Defends Her Holm

Therazane, the elemental lord, is not happy to see intruders in her domain, mining its resources and disturbing its denizens. She fights fiercely—and even when she falls in combat, her subjects are empowered by her raw elemental power!

But who will take her down?!

Familiar Faces Join the Fight

When the outlaws followed the Bloodrock Mining Co. down to Deepholm, they found some intrepid explorers had already joined the fray. One brash dwarf’s cries in battle could be heard echoing from below.

Deepminer Brann was far below the surface when Reno and Elise rode into town, unaware of the havoc the mining operation was causing. But once the elementals awakened, he turned his pickaxe to the new challenge. This was when Reno and Elise first fought alongside Brann and they were impressed with his tenacity; if they were going to make it out of Deepholm, they’d need to be in league with folks like him!

Brann is one of two new no duplicate cards in Delve into Deepholm! Brann is also the bonus Diamond Legendary card included in the Golden Mini-Set.

Even More Excavations

As the adventurers dug deeper, they discovered even more Excavated Treasures, one added to each of the Common, Rare, and Epic tiers.

That’s not all: two new classes will be delving into the Excavate keyword and their own Legendary Excavate treasures, too! We’ll be unearthing those soon, during the reveal season.

Unlikely Allies in Dual-Class Cards

Facing the dangers of Deepholm, the miners and outlaws need to team up to survive. Beyond sharing Excavate and no duplicate effects with classes that didn’t have them before, Delve into Deepholm brings back dual-class cards! Along with one class-specific card per class, each class gets four dual-class cards (two shared with each of two other classes), giving them a broad spectrum of new cards to try out across archetypes! Many of these dual-class combinations even pair a mining class with an outlaw class. For instance, when Warrior and Demon Hunter get together, they bring the pain:

That’s all we’ve dug up so far. Follow the official Hearthstone social accounts for all the Delve into Deepholm card reveals, starting today!
