Duels Is the New Hearthstone Game Mode - PvP Version of Dungeon Run - Early Access Launches Today!
That’s true, thanks, fixing it now!
Progression System Update - Rewards Track, Quests Revamp, Achievements, New Profile Page - Releases November 12
I think it should be pretty quickly. As you can see, leveling to 4 requires 1200 XP. Daily Quest shown on the screenshot gives 1000 XP, Weekly Quests 1750 – 2500 XP. If we average out regular Quests at 1k and Weekly at 2k, then it’s 7k + 6k = ~13k XP per week just from Quests. But we’ll also get extra XP just for playing the game and for some achievements.
I assume that later levels require more XP, but still, it looks like even a pretty casual player should be able to get all 50 levels throughout the entire expansion. And then those who play more should also a get a bunch of gold from 150g / level after 50.
Waiting for more details like exact XP requirements and full rewards list, though.

Hahah, and so quickly! ๐
Dragons Minions, Heroes and Compositions Strategy Guide - Hearthstone Battlegrounds
While I’m not an expert, I feel like Shifter Zerus is a good card to grab in the early-mid game when you have 3 gold left and nothing else to buy. In this scenario, the only alternative is roll – but if you roll into something you want to lock, you “waste” 2 gold. So grabbing Zerus is not a bad deal and it might sometimes win you the game if you high roll.
But in general, you won’t go looking for it, because it’s a pretty bad card on average.
Dragons Minions, Heroes and Compositions Strategy Guide - Hearthstone Battlegrounds
The composition shown here is a final one after you’re done with buffing. In Kalecgos comps, you always have one “flex” spot until very late game, usually when you’re either one of the only 2 players left and want to finish it or when you’re close to dying, you transition from that flex spot to the last minion (often Maexxna to deal with big minions). And then you hope that it’s enough to win ๐
That said, you still want to keep buying Battlecry minions, so if you find the second Maexxna (or Nadina, or whatever was your last card) you can sell it, play a bunch of Battlecries for more buffs and then replay it.
October 22 Fall Reveal Will Contain New Expansion, Game Mode and "System Revamp" Announcements
“System Revamp โ by which they probably mean a new rewards system, possibly even achievements which were teased for the third expansion of this year.”
From the post.
October 22 Fall Reveal Will Contain New Expansion, Game Mode and "System Revamp" Announcements
I agree, but I wouldn’t hope for that yet. I think that at one point they should just scrap everything and release 2.0 version of the client. It already shows its age – the client didn’t get any serious updates ever since game’s beta in 2013. And the more stuff they add, the more clunky & slow it will be.
But releasing a new client is always a huge task, so I think that they’re trying to push it as far away as possible.
Evocation and Solarian Prime Nerfs Coming Next Week
I disagree – that’s the point of Wandmaker / Cobalt Spellkin, to play them in classes with good 1 mana spells and get extra copies of them. This by itself is not a problem, because both cards have weak stats for the cost (2 mana 2/2 and 5 mana 3/5), so they have to make up for it with the effect.
The problem came from Evocation in particular – the card was just TOO powerful. It was one of the strongest cards in the deck (combined with Sorcerer’s Apprentice and Mana Cyclone you could have a huge tempo turn that ALSO gives you tons of value), and a Legendary card for a good reason (so you don’t play multiple copies of it), yet Mage often played 2-3 of them per game. That was simply too much, way more impactful than another copy of Renew or Wave of Apathy.
Hidden Quest for Golden Transfer Student - Here's How to Unlock It!
2 months ago won’t count. Only the thing you did since the start of the event.
But like Asperkraken said, conceding counts, so you can just start a game and concede immediately, that will count. Solo adventure stuff can be done in a few minutes.

It won’t, only the ones you play from your hand.
Dean "Iksar" Ayala Is Once Again Asking For Your Hearthstone Feedback
I believe that’s the goal with the progression system overhaul planned for next expansion. The plan is that players will earn XP no matter which mode they play, and that XP will translate to rewards like Gold, Dust or packs. So you will get the same progress no matter what mode you play – Constructed, Battlegrounds or any of the upcoming game modes (there’s one coming this expansion, but I’m pretty sure that we’ll have more in the future).
Tavern Pass' Price Reduced by 50% Until The End of Expansion (And It Might Be a Good Time To Buy It)
Huh, that’s interesting. It doesn’t sound like it was intended, because even the official patch notes state that those heroes will be available starting October 13 for people without Tavern Pass. But it might work that way for the reason you’ve mentioned – because it’s not exaclty a “new” Hero.
Since Rag is the OP Hero it’s one less reason to buy the Tavern Pass, but I still think that it’s a good deal now for people who play Battlegrounds ๐

Masquerade Ball Event Starts Tomorrow (September 29) - Dual Class Arena, Legendary Quests, Book of Heroes (Rexxar), Golden Transfer Student and more!
(Copying the reply for other comment)
That’s how it worked last time, so I would assume that yes – you can leave the Arena unfinished and you will get the rewards for the amount of wins you have + a free ticket.

Battlegrounds Ranking Reset Coming Next Week, More Details Soon
Yes. Right now, your BG rating = your MMR. You’re matched based on your rating, so if you’re at 6k, you will play against people who are also roughly at 6k. And yes, on ladder you only see your rank (or Legend position) and your actual MMR is hidden.
But according to Iksar’s reddit post (linked at the beginning), after the reset it will work more like ladder and the “visible” rating will be separate from “hidden” MMR. We’ll learn more next week ๐

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, there will be one story for each Hero, roughly once per month.
Team 5 has hinted that Rexxar is coming next, but we don’t know order of the rest ๐
Top Standard Legend Decks From Scholomance Academy - Week 7 - September 2020
Can you share the Gala Warlock? It was one of my favorite decks early last expansion, but I didn’t have much success with it in Scholomance so far.
You won’t lose your Gold – it will still be there! You just won’t get it from Quests & match wins anymore – you progressing on Rewards Track will give you Gold, though.
