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).

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 🙂

I wish 🙁 It’s been 3.5 years since Maiev.

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.

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 🙂

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 🙂

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.

Thanks for the idea. We might do another series of articles about oldschool adventures from the lore perspective at one point too 🙂

Update: It’s the ninth time we see this Brawl. Comments below this one are old, but can often still be relevant!

Well, those solo content strategy guides are mostly targeted at more casual / new players, which might struggle with some of the encounters.

And half of the article is about lore, Tharid explains a lot of the things that aren’t shown in the game, backstories, talks more about events shown in those encounters, so even if you don’t need help, but you’re interested in learning more about the character (in this case Jaina), I feel like it might be a solid read.

It’s more than “not bad”. I would say that’s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gistf2lDKww

Probably because BG is not pure luck based? Or are you suggesting that all the top ranked players got there (often on multiple accounts) just because they’re lucky?

Added, thanks for the link 🙂

You’re right, it’s $34.99 – US dollars. You can find the bundle in the official Battle.net shop here: https://us.shop.battle.net/en-us/product/hearthstone-mega-wild-bundle

Someone talks about Canadian pricing on reddit and they’ve mentioned that it’s a pricing bug. On mobile the price is roughly correct (48 Canadian dollars). You can find the thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/ioy9u2/mega_wild_bundle_is_unfairly_priced_for_canadians/

Average Dust in a pack is around 100, not 50. So that’s ~5.6k Dust in total. Of course, it can be 3k or 8k depending on your luck, that’s just average 🙂

But that doesn’t count the fact that first 10 packs from the expansion you haven’t opened packs from have a guaranteed Legendary – 8 packs aren’t quite guaranteed, but the chance is pretty high! So newer players should get more Dust from it on average.

But I’m still not sure if that’s worth it. I prefer to spend money on packs from the latest expansions, but I guess that some might find the offer good.

To be precise, it’s around Top 10% of Legend. It depends on the month, server, format etc. but it’s usually easier than Top 100 or even Top 500.

E.g. last month on EU Server we had ~34k Legend players in Standard, so ~3.4k Legend would be enough to get 11 bonus stars. On NA we had ~22k Legend players so it was top ~2.2k Legend for 11 bonus stars.

This is of course not 100% precise, but you don’t need to climb THAT high. I’ve been finishing on around 1-1.5k Legend for the last couple of months and I had 11 bonus stars every time.

Not yet, we’ll know when it’s released. Probably 2-3 weeks like other bundles.

Her stats aren’t really relevant – her effect is way more important. E.g. getting out a big Demon with Taunt a turn earlier against Aggro is big. 8 mana 5/5 with this effect is just better than 9 mana 7/7.

At the same time, with the current pool of cards in Standard, even an 8 mana 7/7 probably wouldn’t be good enough. But maybe they’re planning to release some more big Demons next expansion for example?

No idea, they didn’t say anything, but I would hope so!
