Hearthstone Is Dropping Battlegrounds Season 9 Soon with Major Changes!

Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9: Cosmic Overhaul Arrives December 3rd!

Get ready for a celestial shake-up! Hearthstone's Battlegrounds mode is launching Season 9 on December 3rd, bringing a universe of changes. Expect a revamped minion lineup, flashy new tech, and a cosmic theme that will leave the Tavern feeling completely overhauled.

Key Changes:

  • Bob's Technotavern Gets an Upgrade: Prepare for a rating reset and the retirement of Trinkets. They're being replaced by Battlegrounds Tokens! These tokens let you reroll a hero option at the selection screen – perfect for escaping undesirable choices.

  • Minion Reveal Schedule: The new season's minion reveals are staggered:

    • November 20th: Naga and Dragon reveals.
    • November 21st: Quilboar and Beast reveals.
    • November 22nd: Pirate and Duos-only reveals.
    • November 25th: Murloc and Demon reveals.
    • November 26th: Elemental and Undead reveals.
    • December 2nd: Preview event streams and 31.2 patch notes.
  • New Heroes and Minions: Three brand-new heroes are joining the fray, with Farseer Nobundo already generating considerable buzz. Nearly 90 minions and Tavern spells are either entering or leaving the pool, ensuring a dynamic meta.

  • Damage Cap Adjustment (Solo Mode): Solo Battlegrounds games will see a modified damage cap: 5 damage early game, increasing to 10 on turn 4 and 15 on turn 8. The cap is removed once you reach the top 4.

  • Minion Rollout: The new minions will be added gradually:

    • December 3rd: Beasts, Dragons, Quilboar, Pirates, Naga, and Mechs.
    • December 5th: Murlocs and Demons.
    • December 9th: Undead and Elementals.
