Hearthstone Patch 40118 - Hall of Fame, Tournaments, Card Changes, Brawl

A new patch has been deployed to the Hearthstone Public Test Realm and is available for your testing. Pull up a chair by the hearth and start reading! Updates to our card database have been delayed due to major client changes.

Quote from Definitely Not the HearthPwn Staff Beta The Hearthstone Beta has finally concluded. Subscribers may purchase a copy of the game for $49.99 at select digital retailers.

Deck draws are no longer weighted and are truly randomized now. General All text in-game is now in Mandarin. Developer Note: Internal statistics and community provided feedback have shown that 18 deck slots weren't too difficult to manage so we've decided to increase the complexity of the game by changing the language you play in. The gold cap has been reduced to 150. Developer Note: Not enough players were pre-ordering the recent expansion which we determined was not very fun. Any gold over 150 has been converted into dust at a rate of 1 dust per 100 gold. This may take up to two weeks for your dust to be delivered to your account via the Blizzard Gifts feature, though your gold has been already removed. Mobile players can log in to the Battle.net website to collect their dust. Additional deck slots remain $9.99 each and may only be found on the Battle.net web store. Keeping that UI clean! Hall of Fame / Standard Coldlight Seer, Ice Barrier, and Molten Reflection have been added to the Hall of Fame. Developer Note: Back in February we announced our intentions to add a few cards to the Hall of Fame rotation. We, unfortunately, got this wrong due to an internal miscommunication and will not be rotating those cards. Instead, here's the correct three cards which are rotating. Unstable Portal and Primordial Glyph have been added to Mage's Standard Rotation. Developer Note: Mages have lost many cards to Hall of Fame over the years so we decided they needed compensation. To do this, we've added some of their most popular cards over the years to the Classic set. Card Changes Burgle now directly steals credits from your opponent's Battle.net Balance.

Carnivorous Cube now correctly creates 4 copies instead of 2 on death.

Snowflipper Penguin will now stream snowboarding classes on Twitch every Monday from 12 PM PDT until 4 PM PDT.

Jade Shuriken has been renamed to Glass Shuriken due to a lack of funds.

As part of our removal of the Enrage keyword, certain cards have taken Anger Management classes. Their names are now Tender Chicken, Annoyed Worgen, and Garrosh Hecktalk.
